She was told that he had access because he was on the "site helpers" list, which includes the mods, but is not just mods. That sounded odd to me, since I happen to be on that list and I don't have access to that section, so I pm'ed her. Lucy then asked about this, initially not identifying me as the person who pm'ed her. After a certain amount of provocation she then posted my name and almost immediately edited the post to remove it. At that point I thought I should just post and confirm that I had been the one who pm'ed her. There was some small amount of sniping after that, but things generally calmed down. To prevent speculation from getting out of hand again, I'd just like to clarify a few points:
- I don't want access to that section. It doesn't concern me. I'm not a mod or an escort.
- I am on Sarah's "site helpers" list, but I've never received any money from E-I, directly or indirectly.
- I'm not part of any conspiracy to stitch anyone up, as you may have read in a certain blog. I think the person who made that accusation honestly believes it to be true, but only because someone is feeding her dodgy information.

i was testing your ability as a helper and you passed perfectly
