Just wondering if the owners/employees/reviewers from one site submit their images to other site? or is this a big no no?

I just read this somewhere.... Blonde moment.... I think the person said some houses require exclusivity but the one they are at now doesn't so yes, they submit to other sites.

I believe that reviewers need to be exclusive at Dreamstime and iSock. The rest of the main sites allow submitting elsewhere.

Many agencies, probably most of them, submit to all other agencies to stay familiar with their competitors' websites and compare the sales performance. It's not above board, but it's widely practiced.  Some agencies even have staff who are inspectors at other agencies.

Maybe they submit thousands of crapstockphotos in order to waste their competitors time and resources 

Crapstock � is mine! 

I'm positive that some people who contribute to multiple micro sites have also been reviewers for a site. If you remember Lucky Oliver there were a few and they were also very helpful to new people, giving more than rejections, they would also give reviews and advise! Sad that LO didn't make it.

No it's not:  "crapstock.com AVAILABLE". 
racephoto.com is taken, itsmoving.com is taken, motormania.com is taken, but motormaniastock.com is... AVAILABLE
(hinthint)
refusedstock.com is free too by the way 

I'm not going to waste the money to take the name "crapstock" and I have a few others already. The one I want for racing stock, isn't taken, and I'm not going to post anything about it, because people seem to grab names when they think it's a good idea, even if they have no use for them except parking in hopes of selling them. Someone suggest I take my business name, but it's already gone and was over 11 years ago. Someone took one of my joke names, then someone else bought it and it's nothing but a forwarding address to another site. I have no clue why, because the name has nothing to do with the ultimate destination.

Watch someone take Crapstock now!
