That's when someone breaks down their point into multiple separate messages, one sentence at a time, when a single coherent paragraph or two would have worked. Why send one message when you can send 7 in rapid succession? It's arguably the most annoying method of communication because it spams your notifications and you have no idea when someone has finished dumping.
