I wouldn't be so cynical as all that. I'm more worried about getting my stuff read; boosting site traffic didn't even cross my mind in the sense that you're thinking of.
(If you had problems with the site in the past and knew about that, why'd you visit it in the first place? One would think you were falling for my gran scheme yourself.)
The only problem with that is that I do talk to my peers. My nongamer friends think that not only do videogames not have any serious messages to say--but they think that it's not possible for them to. Yeah, the current establishment thinks that games are a toy...but I'm afraid that sometimes it seems that the establishment-to-be feels the same way.
