Exactly. Define "webmaster", lol. Do you mean "human"? Do you mean unique entity? Very different things.

Now note: When I reviewd for jjj's years ago, this was a question that a fellow reviewer and I were asking ourselves. There were some regular submitters who were all very unique, yet 2 or 3 of them were also very similar in styles. So we were speculating that it was really the same human being, using different sponsor account names, different domains on unique IP's, using different ISP's to submit from. Now the question was, Is that really cheating? We decided that as long as there was no crossover, no blatant cheating or blatant way to tie them together as being one human, there was absolutely no way to call it cheating you see?

And the other question came up that hey ya know, they're never repeating the content, they're not repeating templates, not redirecting, not doing anything wrong as per rules, so why would anyone even look further anyway?

You *could* go to the ISP's and try to trace the physical location of the machines I guess.. but thats pretty far to go to catch someone who is doing nothing more than submitting good quality galleries that never break the rules, lmao..

So is it really cheating? lol In other words, is "cheating" changing at some point from "dont redirect" (etc) to "we're working to prevent you from making more money"??

I thought it was a good debate, so revived it here, lol.


<edit: btw, I havent done a gallery in a couple of years now, and those I've submitted in past are still listed fine. This is just a debate, not a method I ever used>
