(16,646 posts)I wish there were a better word for a professional poster, but in the end that's what she is. The result of that is that there is a dishonesty to her posting. She posts purely to influence, by any means, instead of being there for the engagement. The engagement is a side effect of her intentions. It has all the honesty of a commercial advertisement.
And even within that, one could effectively make the same point about Grayson (who probably is actually paying someone to post for him). The fundamental difference of course between the two is that Grayson is fairly open about what he is doing.
Finally, Prosense kicks her own posts for exposure and links to her own writings repeatedly, to ensure maximum exposure, as oppose to promoting engagement.
But Skinner says shills are okay around her so that's the law of the land and so it's either ignore, engage, or laugh.
