I'd have to agree. I met him and was his ' bus driver' to a Super Bowl party many years ago. At the time he was posting pics on another board, left and right and the same issue was discussed and the complaints came in and the problem was solved.
There used to be a guy ( Dol 'phin' for you old timers) out of H-Town ( had Memphis in profile as well). He posted a pic all the time in many cities yet not one person gave a flying fuck.
He was known to often do so in less than an hour ( maybe a few) or less of the review going up, often he did it within a minute if online. It was referred to as ' phinning.' He was very popular on this old board, no one cared. I think part of this G-Man thing is personal and uncalled for. Not all though, I can relate to the OP's observation that the bumping can get annoying and it is an issue dealt with in the past. Perhaps because Geniousman seeks value and cheaper appointments to meet his budget it is a scumbag move in some folks eyes but when this other gentleman did it I guess it was OK because he had no problem pissing away money like it was water with multi-hour and overnight appointments.
Maybe some are jealous that he could ' potentially' get a discount and if he does great. Guys get discounts all the time whether it be for a review, the fact they have a known handle, the fact he was a WK who helped a lady, the fact he knows computers and did her web site, maybe he owns an auto shop and fixed a ladies car, the list goes on. I can't see the justification in all this just for a ' bump.' At the same time if I haven't logged on for 2 days and log on and see the top 10-20 reviews all have geniousman as the last post I can see why others might be tired of it but I don't think it is that bad. But I do see how the OP and others might see the spam in this. People can accuse G-Man of getting discounts, I doubt it happens much if at all and if he can go poke a pussy with his pecker for a few pennies less than God bless him. However, I do not think that is the case. I don't think it is a scumbag move nor is G-Man a scumbag.
And the solution is
easy, why don't folks simply help to solve it rather than bitch at or about the poor guy.
below is a link to Whisper's first post in this thread.

Unless I am mistaken Sixx........
All the bumped reviews are less than 48 hours old......
So they are not really "older" reviews......
But it is annoying as all hell and simply does not sit right....
the below is copied from my text a paragraph or two up.

48 hours per Whispers ( and I agree) allows way too much time to picture spam but to not allow it at the same time would be a dis-service to the board imho. Maybe dis-service is the wrong word, let's just say there are many who do appreciate the pics.
So maybe if G-Man is allowed to continue to ' phin' the pics as long as he does so within 5-10 hours ( or another suggested reasonable time) or less of the
time stamp of the initial and original review ( not the timings of the replies, they remain irrelevant) than the ladies can continue to get the pictures posted and those who feel he ' spams' will also be satisfied as in a ten hour time frame or less one can only log on so many times and tag the reviews. It's worth a shot.
Or we can just see this same thread posted month after month and the same complaints.
Or maybe just do nothing and let it go, aren't there bigger fish to fry??
easy solutions here folks, real easy...would make everyone happy
Just my two cents.... ( 2.4 cents nowadays with inflation under Obama)
