The term Stat Whore is usually used in a jokey, mildly derrogatory way, as a term for someone who seems overly concerned with their statistics. Some people think it is a particularly negative thing, implying that they care too much about increasing their personal site statistics - perhaps in some cases people take this phrase as an implication that they prefer their level icons over helping others. Examples of this include: Voting on Newgrounds to give the best chance of earning themselves Blam and Protect Points, rather than giving their honest opinion and posting worthless, irritating posts on the BBS to enlarge their post count. Others are quite happy with the term, and may use it refering to themselves. The term is also used more generally in a light-hearted, dismissive sense for peopl

The term is also used more generally in a light-hearted, dismissive sense for people who are concerned with improving their personal statistics in any walk of life, or Newgrounds in particular. A less negative term for someone interested in their statistics might be a Stat Enthusiast.
