The Shill Effect

[Steveo]

Astroturfing…And I doubt he is alone on this site... You will have to work out for yourselves who else is complicit in the game.

BUT - Did you people actually believe any adult human could be such a wretch as that? Like I said months ago - it is so obviously an incentivised ruse. Hence the 24-hour silence and the "technical" blackout the second the accusation landed.

He has to tread carefully... while not illegal, it’s a very grey area. Ad revenue being pushed up by a sodding fake alias..? causing havoc to increase page impressions via a myriad of bullshit arguments??? It’s a dirty way to make the site appear to have engaged users -when we're actually just engaged in denouncing the bullshit the owner creates...

THINK - he attacks Miller. Miller... FFS... the most balanced and reasoned poster on the entire site. Yet he befriends the bully? The ranter and raver who is prepared to go “studs up” into anyone at any time?

But as promised, I said I would out him. As with Taksin—the other Bullshit account -the "condescending professor" who intimidated so many with his seeming intellect. The second that fake account disappears... Jokestrap enters. Tweaked persona, but it didn’t fool me... so obviously Admin and incentivised.

Time to sharpen up folks. Justin told us all a long, long time ago. He said he was a Bot… and he/she/it is exactly that an Automated or Scripted Admin Account.

19…. you and I have walked straight into it. I was missing the detail... focussing on him being incentivised by the club rather than the site revenue itself. He is the Admin.
Once you wake up - it’s obvious.

Maybe he’s trying to create page impressions to keep the site going if that’s the case?

But it’s having the opposite effect as lots of regulars have stopped posting

Or if that’s the case maybe looking to close down as we’re not viable, although, they have a Facebook presence and could filter traffic here to
maximise revenue

[Steveo]

I hear you. You’re keen to believe it’s just a clumsy attempt to keep the site viable. But take a step back and look at the cost. If you 'keep a site going' by driving away the very regulars who make it worth visiting, what in the fook are you actually saving? You cited the regular posters who have vanished. They have

If the goal is to keep it viable, they’d be using that Facebook presence to bring in new blood. Instead, they’ve turned the keys over to a 'Handler' and an 'Attack Dog' to manufacture rage-clicks. That aimt keeping it going - it’s a kind of strip-mining of the site’s reputation - for a few last ad-dollars before the lights go out.

And Gary? Decent or not, he’s the one who disabled the PMs… And why do we think..? He’s the one who watches Jockstrap go in ridiculously OTT on Miller and others without a word. At some point, this assumed 'decent' owner is responsible for the 'wretch' he employs to farm the clicks.

It’s a legacy back end - it is dying and is squeezing the remaining regulars into as many impressions as possible mate.

although what your saying is bonkers, like people thinking wirtz is shit but yeah

each to there own haha jockstrap is 100% not gary, he's just a arse, but you know what i find it more interesting with him here because otherwise it'll just be 19x posting and you and CCTV arguing.... soooo you won't agree with me but hopefully you can see my point a little. love you Xxxxxxxxx

P.s that was my number, get in touch on whatsapp etc ? if you have that ? I don't like bumping that thread, ( damn you sid) never a good idea to post your number on a public forum

I've already had a few private calls..... but that's maybe because i told my ex-friend.... mrs he cheated on her with me.... narrcistic lying prick /shrug.... but now because i put my number out there, i'm not 100% sure.... basically i got drunk, did a few lines and sent her messages... oops... but this guy has been given me death threats and all sorts..... fuck him.

[Steveo]

Great defection… The only way you would know that Jockstrap is 100% not Gary is if you were in on it.

And I will try you on whatsapp and IF that’s not your number / if it’s some scam number kev… then that’s low - even for you


The silence from the “admin” is shocking - those who know what I have said - know

[JockStrap]

[Kev0909]

It's not- if you have whatsapp you can add me it'll come up with kev.

Honestly though, Jockstrap is 100% not gary, crazy theory i'm not just saying that because i'm one of the rare ones that actually like jockstrap- it's just madness mate.

Gary hasn't cared about the forum for about 6 years apart from the odd post, jockstrap joined 3 years ago and hardly posted at first.

And to be fair mate, I don't think gary would like you accusing posters of being him, he really is not. for all we know gary might be dead.

[JockStrap]

Honestly though, Jockstrap is 100% not gary, crazy theory.

It's fun to watch the bully lose his mind in front of us.

[Steveo]

See Jokestrap defence…?

Even Taksin could do better.
