BS. All whoring is is taking the extras you can get in poker where you can get it.

I guess we have never really properly defined the term "whoring" then. I always thought of whoring as taking advantage of a site to make money off of them. If you are clearing a bonus which gives you some of your rake back, are you whoring the site or are they whoring you? They are technically making money off of YOUR PLAY. It is the equivalent of paying a low rake.

Thoughts?

Exactly. Rakeback = a lower rake than a competitor. But that's not a "bonus". That's just a lower rake. There's no "whoring" involved. To me, whoring is playing a certain number of hands because you are paid (net, i.e., bonus > rake) to do so. Simply taking LESS of my money to play the same number of hands is not whoring -- that's rakeback.
