1. A newbie to an online forum who goes into overtime posting many short and usually meaningless posts in an attempt to raise their post count to pass the newbie stage ASAP.
2. A type of trolling or board saboteur where the intent of the person is to invade the forum with an annoying presence.
3. A person who is starving for attention in real life and compensates for their shortcomings in society by living in a forum and inserting their presence across the board everyday and sometimes all day. As soon as their post count breaches the highest recorded for the forum, they often begin to post frequently on the direction the board should take. It is not uncommon to see their avatars change frequently often with a theme of power. Forum members will begin to try to put the member in check but to no avail as the person is feeding off of their imaginary power to which they compensate for their lack of real world activity. (Most notorious for fitting this definition is the member: Bluto from getbig dot com)
4. A person, who feels their higher post count gives them added credibility in the forum, even over people who have contributed for much longer and as such they go to great lengths to increase their post count.
5. A post whore is a virtual attention whore. The attention whore brings the same attitude into online forums where they assert their “look at me” persona by invading the board with a large presence of posts.

A post whore is someone who types thousands of messages on an online forum, mostly with little or no meaning. These people post at least 50 times a day, mostly consisting of one word posts or emoticons.

Post Whore was originally created by 2TUM. It was originally a term to describe a person who posted quickly and in many threads of a Message Board. In most cases, the post whore had a high-speed internet access and could post more often before posters of the dial-up speed because of their long wait for pages to load up.
Post whore is now associated with someone who posts mindless posts on a Message Board, barely adding anything to the conversation if even that. Most cases, it's a short one sentence post or even just a single emoticon.

making a large amount of useless shitty threads and posts that piss people off. Post whores have a tendancy to be obnoxious, stupid, and innocently yet painfully annoying.
