Hi @RashidJorvee

Introduce ourselves to the community is a way to improve our knowledge of the other members. As the thread is becoming very long, it is restart every month by a Google moderator, that introduce himself to the community.

Hi @RashidJorvee this is used to reduce the amount of self presentation threads on Connect, as the community growth is exponential.

Hi @RashidJorvee

I clearly understand what you mean. 

Our community is growing quickly, so the "introduce yourself" thread is becoming long and sometimes difficult to read. Also a lot of replies are useless, but this is part of what happens in every community. I don't think that a limited access is a good idea. I simply hope that the structure of the threads will be improved, for a better reading. 

Let say that this is more than a hope. The structure of Connect is changing, to adhere to the requests of the community, so I think it will be improved soon.

Because, in a lot of developing parts of the world, cheap and reliable internet is a very new thing. Users there tend not to know that Google is not the whole internet, and use it as a search engine, social network and everything else.

 

Most people in these areas access the internet with Android phones pre-loaded with Google features.
