Wtf is thread crapping?

https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=161161

Is that like whoring or just filling up the thread with crap? :dunno:

I'm there with ya, I'm assuming it's just changing subjects in a thread and posting about nothing?

I don't know either. Perhaps a 'Netiquette' sticky at the top of the forum for us nOObs? Wouldn't it be nice if the board could post info about, Trolls/trolling, thread crapping, thread whoring, jacking and such so us nOObs don't end up pissing off the regulars? Just a thought.

Basically, thread crapping is making a post only to derail the original topic and start a flame war.

I think "postwhoring" just about covers it, most people understand what that means. I was seriously about to change my diet and stop eating threads, for fear of warning points. :eek3:

i think we all do a lil bit of that!

I think its more like excessive whoring / abusing. whoring is like having a binge night, where crapping is like alcoholism

whoring and crapping are 2 different things.

crapping is basically this (no means to point anyone out, but it's the only example I can think of) :

original post: hey guys, heads up, here's a link to a free Scion poster.
reply 1: thanks! good lookin out!
reply 2: nice, I could use one for the garage
reply 3: that car sucks and I think they're garbage

reply 3 = thread crapper


original post: The Bulls are awesome in the playoffs this year
reply 1: the Wizards will come back
reply 2: Ben Gordon > *
reply 3: basketball is a pathetic game for overpaid panzies. I hate basketball.

reply 3 = thread crapper

basically, thread crapping is making a post only to derail the original topic and start a flame war.

whoring is basically what I'm doing now. h:

I'm still sticking to the subject, but making 2 seperate posts about it only to jack up my post count.
