Having a larger and more lengthy mix of both carry its own benefits: (a) it will allow for moderating team to ensure that posts made before a member is able to conduct business activity match the expected standard (non-fluff posting), and (b) it will also allow other members to get some comfort from seeing what that particular member's activity been like.

I personally always look through someone's posting activity and I feel more comfortable doing business with someone who is: coherent, helpful and insightful, versus someone who is clearly there just to advertise.
