We've all seen someone in a forum who is always posting topics trying to get that one that's popular.
Ex. What's your favorite sock brand(not a post I actually seen but its just as useless)
Just irritates me when you see 5 topics in a forum by the same person posted within minutes of eachother and none having a reply.

What wrong with that as long as the user is not posting spam(it's called being active)

There is a difference between spam and being active. To me, a post every 15min is spam, especially when the one that was posted before went nowhere. And I never said there was anything wrong with it, it's just annoying. Mainly because they push the useful post down and onto other pages where they're less likely to be seen.

I Agree As Long As It Isn't Spam It's Fine They Are Just Trying To Get Posts.

It Really Sounds Like Your Mad At Active Users...If Someone Comments On 3 or 4 Things In A Section Thats Not Spam Unless It Has Nothing To Do With The Topic...BE MORE SPECIFIC!

Read more carefully. If your post is helpful/useful, I'm not referring to you. If its just stuff to get a post then I am.
