In all seriousness, they use the contest threads for announcments. Some announcments may be timely and not able to wait two or three weeks to start.

I have no idea how much a pinned thread cost, but if those guys keep running up thousands of posts in one day, it will be cheaper to buy extended pinned spots than give away contest cash.

The last contest pussycash did, they had to reload the cash because spideriux ended the money to fast.

It ended up costing them more than they planned because of the surfers.


The market will correct itself, the contests will go away without any rules.
