Post Whoring is making posts simply for the sake of making a post. It causes a member’s post count to rise, but adds virtually no beneficial content to the forum.

Post Whoring is also using the forums as if they were a real time “chat room” on mIRC, AOL, etc. AO has an mIRC Chat Room already for that purpose.

But wouldn't "date joined" do the same thing? ;) (Except for server errors... LOL)

well i usually say welcome to people if i notice they're within their first 10 or so posts. join date works too but it's easier with the post count. single and double digit post counts stick out more than having a recent join date.
