It depends how much EC is posting. Based on recent history, they've been outed badly, with terbadmin searching and exposing their multiple posts from the same IP addresses. If there's such a thing as "serial shilling", they're it.
That's a tough question, though.

At the rate you say are shills do you realize then that between
one and two THOUSAND posts are shills ?
Now that probably does not include the guy who posts 19 or 20 or 21 times about the same lady because a lot of the almost 5,500 members would not call HIM/HER/IT a shill .......but they are !!!!!!!!!
