First post claims

I can't be the only one who reads the news topics and hates when people submit "first post" replies. I want to read the news stories and replies to them in order to learn something, not to see a post from someone hitting refresh on their browser 400 times so they can be the first one to submit a reply. It's especially annoying when they think they're first, but actually aren't, then they have to post again saying, "Well, I guess I wasn't first after all..." Is there some sort of reprisal we can exact on these people? Temporary ban or something?

I could complain about the Soviet Russia jokes as well but one in ten is somewhat amusing, so I don't hate them as much. Still, it happens way too often.

Any other suggestions?
 
Scroll past posts that don't interest you? You know I get tired of regulars around here b!tching about insignificant topics like this one. Never mind someone with 2 posts complaining.
 
I agree - "first posting" should be a bannable offense, there's no reason for people to post it and it brings the forums to the intellectual level of a counterstrike forum . It's not a huge problem here yet - but if it becomes one I say bring the banhammer down with severe justice.
 
I'm not making a huge deal out of this, I'm just saying this is an unnecessary annoyance that degrade the quality of the forums. If there is a reasonable response to reduce the frequency of this happening, it should be done.
