I think a lot of people are shaved when they have an account that doesn’t have many fluctuations, especially when it’s on the low end.
When I have such an account someplace I sometimes suddenly send a bunch of visitors to see what happens. It is amazing how many of these “semi dormant” accounts don’t budge.
I also think that newbie acciunts are often shaved when they produce the unexpected whale. I think whales are shaved the most.
Who says all programs shave the same way? Who says all super affs have equal access? Shaving has to be an art and it is likely practised differently by different people.
Some programs surely don’t do it at all.
I sure wish there was a way we could cooperate with the programs and do audits that everyone trusts – I would like to do away with all this constant distrust and suspicion.
This industry would be such a pleasant place if it were not for those constant suspicions.
