Post whoring

There has been a recent increase in the number of essentially useless or non content posts, or posts which provide no valuable content to the forum but are in reality an off topic conversation between members which should really be carried out by PM or email. In netspeak this is referred to as 'post whoring'.

This is not a constructive thing for the forum, it takes up space and confuses topics, make people have to read rubbish to find the actual content, and a lot of members (ie all but the very few who are doing it) find post whoring to be very irritating. With a recent increase in this activity (and complaints about it) we ask that all members think about what they are posting and not do this. If a post is not of value to the members of the forum then it should not be there. This is true of the Non Z Related forum also, while it allows for a larger scope of topics to be discussed, pointless posts or long conversations should not be posted here or anywhere.

Please keep other members in mind when posting and don't clutter the forum with useless garbage.
