Coalposting 

The act of posting coalposts. Derives its name from the combustible sedimentary rock "coal."

Coalposts are low effort, low quality, no creativity, and just plain downright worthless content that has ZERO intellectual or entertainment value. It serves no purpose other than to occupy space in boards, threads, and comment sections.

Even literal coal has its value, whereas coalposts have NONE.
