Attention Whores vs. Post Whores

Do you think there is a difference?

Sure.. I mean a whore is technically a prostitute, right? A post whore is someone who just gets around in a lot of threads.

I think Whores came first, being that they sleep around alot. Postwhores came second, like JD said, they post around alot.

Definitely a difference. Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t whores actually get paid for what they do?? Post whores just post because they want to

Most definaly a differenct. Attention Whores do what they do so they will get attention, post whores do what they do for the all-mighty post count
I like to think of myself as a postslut, I just do it 'cause I like to

The problem with postwhoring in general topics is it floods the thread with needless crap posts with no intent or any information being passed on.

there is a place for everything. I agree with Razor postwhoring in general topics is bad, there should be specific Postwhore/ nonsense threads
