A masterful documentOriginally posted by RichardCranium View PostHmm. There's some mileage in this Plan B.
I have a few handfuls of unbanned, post-moderation sockies that have not been used for some time.
I could rent them out for a fixed term, for a number of posts, or until one gets an 'infarction'. Penalties for getting it banned; discounts if you return it with +ve rep.
Each one has a different profile: gender, age, contract role, location in the country, writing style. I could provide a ready-made set of clichés.
I also have 'Richard Cranium', a few 'Cyberman' accounts and A Special Secret But Really Annoying Identity available on between a handful and scores of web sites internationally - each available for short terms at a high price.
I might even be able to provide some LinkedIn and FaceBook access, for the 'connoisseur'.
Then there's the chutney spoon related SEO pre-work I've done.
Catalogue available on request, sent under encrypted Brown-Paper.zip
You know what? I'm f**king wasted in project management, me.
