You are insulting a lot of us @LoyceV LOL
Check
the most active posters. Currently, the top 5-24 is completely filled with only Stake signatures:

Stake doesn't care who they hire, as long as they post a lot (of BS). Their spam was called out
5 years ago, and it's still going.
They actually do. If they wouldn't then you wouldn't see me, yahoo, ognasty and some others in their campaign.
For a large campaign like Stake it's not always easy. I still have not calculated how many members are wearing Stake signature but I can easily assume it's more than 50. Their weekly budget can easily be over $5k. With this budget they have mix of good and bad posters., mix of highly reputed members and average members. Problem with high rep members that they will not chase a certain weekly target, you can not force them to fill up the weekly target even with a very high weekly payment but the average members don't mind to chase the weekly target. So Stake is just balancing between number of posts, cost per week and individual reputation.
The cost per posts is the most priority for Stake manager (at least I got the impression when I had a discussion with her) which is why many times you find a lot of spammers but overall I think the campaign is doing fairly well. You will always see in every conversation members have Stake signature. For the point of view from the project owner, it's a great outcome.
