Also, how do you move so freely between the following two statements?

Yes, true, how long a holiday lasts is not your concern, and I do appreciate your posting what you did.
All I know is when I checked, and had others check, too, there were no links. Emails to the owner/support tickets not answered for almost two months.
And how do I reconcile the two statements? Easy: IN THE PAST it was worth all the effort for whatever hits they sent, and if they 'monetized' MY content by offering Memberships (which I do not get a piece of, just a link with some lousy traffic back) then it was, MORE OR LESS, a wash.
But NOW? In the PRESENT? Shitty or non-existent traffic, no response from the site, thousands of my images all over the fucking site and nothing in it for Mister Peabody.
So yeah, I'm pissed, but just a little, and it's not worth ALL my time to bitch like this (but certainly worth a post HERE in the hopes other well-meaning Webmasters do not waste their valuable time, effort and resources posting to a shitty-ass site like that).
Now, i don't know about your FACTS - do you work with PV? Are you associated with them? Or do you just post there regularly? Whatever - if a REPRESENTATIVE of PV wants to chime in, and explain things, great. But honestly, who are you? You're defending them so you have an interest, yes?
What are YOUR stats, then? Do YOU get traffic back when a Contri says it has 60,000 views? I'm seriously not trying to be an asshole, just curious.
Again, whatever, sites like Project Voyeur are dying a slow, sad death, and they do this shit in a desperate attempt to stay in business (which I can actually kinda understand). But Bottom Line: giving away your content FOR FREE only works
IF you get something back; otherwise Webmasters are being idiots for continuing to support sites like Project Voyeur.
