Personally, I like hearing the con reports and seeing the photos, and people remembering and sharing their experience of meeting AT. I think that type of post is (a) on topic and (b) nice to share with other fans who maybe can't go for whatever reason.
I think where the fine line you talk about starts to get smudged is when the posts seem more directed at those who attended a con with them rather than sharing an experience of meeting AT with everyone. So effectively you end up with a stream of posts where clearly the posters have met, there're a lot of in-jokes and teasing which you don't get if you weren't there, and it all rather feels like you've stumbled into a chat room with a clique of people who are the "in-group" and you're not in it.
However, there are a lot of people here who are friends outside of the thread and I mostly lurk here these days so I tend to shrug my shoulders and move on. I have a very handy scroll button.
