I think all it does is track how many posts occur, irrespective of content, or largely anyway.
With the default being if you post a lot, you have an agenda, however it might just be you enjoy posting, have time on your hands or a whole host of other reasons.
Its a nice idea to have looked at in fairness, i.e. does amount of posts on here have any relation to a group attempting to manipulate the market. The thesis being if post count vastly increases before a move from its norm then it could be a group pump. Problem is so many varibles. If you look on this chat alone, posters who are long term holders get to know the company well and so as news or an event becomes due, naturally there activity levels will likely rise, often, against the ramping suggestion, more negatively, questioning where is the expected news drop lol.
And there lies the problem. While the idea is nice,it doesn't measure the depth of why posts might increase outside of RNS drops.
Cool idea though, just hard to execute. I've seen them used for twitter, whereby the aim was to jump in on a pumps rise, taken by the increase in tweets around said company. The pump in that case can be natural and not orgainised, just a load of investors suddenly becoming keen, suggests the stock is in a high volume phase.
