The Wikipedia definition of Shill is as follows:

A Shill, also called, a plant or stooge is a person who publicly helps an organization or person. Shill typically refers someone who purportedly gives onlookers the impression that they are an enthusiastic independent seller of a customer for whom they are secretly working. The person or group who hire the Shill are using crowd psychology to encourage other onlookers to purchase the goods or services being marketed.

This was a perfect description of the Stooge Shill we had working this board. The only reason he's not still working this board is because he's no longer being paid.
