Then it wouldn't be an "empty slut", would it be? That's what I've been saying!
And what I'm saying, is that slutting is inherently empty. You seem to object to all slutting. Not most slutting, or slutting with content (since, oxymoron).
And I'm not trying to argue that away, just cavilling on semantics.
Personally, I don't care one way or another. Technically, I don't know if the # of posts is harder on the server than the size of posts, and where the lines lie there.

There's no way to police it, of course. But we've dealt with other things that couldn't exactly be policed, either. And I'm just saying, it's not an important thing, but it's very annoying to me, and if it's very annoying to some other people, then a spell of excessive and nothing-else numberslutting could become one of the things that people are conscious of as being annoying to others.

I swear I can think of other things it's been said to have worked for, and I'm only coming up, right now, with the points in Natter when someone asked that the fun-fun-profanity sessions be truncated or toned down. Or content stuff. But I swear I remember it.
