There’s something I’ve been wondering about. I have no inside info or facts on this, just a thought.
Notice how the moderators no longer moderate, and always allow the promoters reviews to stay legit without scrutiny? As opposed to the old aspd days, where we would say “quack quack” and have jpegs of rubber duckies, belittling the promoters and shaming them.
That leads me to suspect that the promoters are kicking up payments that they receive from the studios to the moderators. That way the moderators are paid to look the other way while pretending that they don’t know if it’s a promotion or a legit review. Basically a shakedown. A scam.
Possible?

The anti-handles, vadc and his plethora serve a purpose, which is to post often, create false drama, and keep the ad revenue coming. There is no other income stream.. Nobody buys memberships (hardly), ladies can't advertize or post pics. But Studios can. Hmm, why is that? Because Studios are THE revenue source, and with that comes reviews, bumps, more reviews. Who cares that one guy with 5 handles writes 5 reviews today, and never visited any Studio, never saw a Lady? It's about POSTS, not facts and accuracy. Who cares that vadc/PeterBota run a train of 20 handles, spew torrents of lies and disinformation? ECCIE doesn't, they increase the post count, and spur others to post. Don't believe it? Count the number of Studio/AMP posts in a normal day, compare to all other sections. The Studio page one turns over in 15 minutes, COED, for example, can take several days, easy. The Sandbox takes weeks, sometimes. But so what? Those are irrelevant. ECCIE is all about the Studios, and needs every poster in whatever capacity to fuel the promotion.
