Very interesting logic you present here...
I had not previously drawn the connection between purchased accounts and signature campaign managers. (I do know in the past, what were very clearly purchased accounts were used to manage signature campaigns of various projects, likely run by those behind the project, some successful, some less successful, and some shady)
I know right now the name of at least one campaign manager that uses bought accounts for shilling. This isn't something that's widely spoken about but its done frequently. Just take a look at the date range of these accounts that were created.
People should spend money to hire competent managers that can devise ways to organically grow the footfall or at least try paid advertising / retargeting. Which is where I am trying to set myself apart. (and a few others)
PS: You know I hate you. But good to see you're still active here. Good to see some old faces around.
