Alright, I have even more why questions.
Why is it that George states multiple times that he looks over each and every channel, yet that is a blatant lie. Which we all know.
Every channel does get reviewed individually now I cant comment on what George has said in the past as I was not working with Freedom! then.
Why is it that completely blank channels with absolutely nothing on it not even a profile image can be automatically partnered with freedom hmm ?
They can no longer be partnered with Freedom! this is one of the first things I implemented when I arrived.
For reference as a complete test I created two very very blank channels without nothing at all on them but a name and applied they both got accepted.
If this is the case I would love to have a look in to it how long ago was this? and could you pm me the partner ID?
Third most people who joined freedom way back when it first opened in 2013 joined because everyone was offered a Managed partnership yet 2-3 months pass and George got in trouble from Google about it. So Why is it that a video update wasnt made to blatantly point out that people will only be getting affiliate there is no managed for everyone anymore.
I am unsure again I cant comment on things that went on before I arrived but I can look in to it.
Fourth i read through the link about the bug with the networks, I read all your responses and yet none of those answer my questions. You state that it is of top priority yet a bug like that should be capable of fixing within 24-48 hours yet it hasnt ? It Freedom hired capable and experienced employees except random freelance people then maybe things would be done on time and efficiently.
24-48 hours? I'm going to be blunt one thing I hate as someone working in development is blanket statements like this when individual's are not familiar with the back end of our systems or there architecture. I thought we had fixed this Friday ill be honest however I have had reports that it is not fixed. The biggest problem we have when fighting bugs like this is getting specifics as the dashboard code base is huge and we cant trawl through every line of code looking for the mistake its an impossible task.
If you are familiar with our back end though and want to give me a hint as to where to look so it can be resolved in 24-48 hours that would be great.The bug itself will probably be a 24-48 hour fix finding and isolating the code causing it not so much.
I have worked in the games industry for several years and we have the same issue there.
Next why is it that Freedom needs multiple CMS accounts? Not that thats a question I dont already know. I am asking as Freedom has no intention of ever removing blank accounts or copyrighted accounts unless it is an automated system. I can guarantee you if someone on the staff team went on the CMS and spent a couple days going through it and removing every blank channel there would still be a need for only 1 maybe even 2 cms accounts. The fact being Freedom takes on anyone and everyone. There is no opportunity for growth in that sense if even my cat can partner his non existent channel.
Blank accounts have been removed and copyright accounts are being removed I have been heavily involved in designing the tooling to do this and can guarantee they are being.Blanks are now automatically removed copyright content its a little bit harder as we haven't got a thumbprint system and that is a Goliath of a task.So for now every incoming channel is manually reviewed. As for multiple CMS I know that way back when there was a cap on the amount of people you can have in a CMS and its a task to move every user over to one CMS as we have to work with google to do that its not something we can do without kicking everyone from 2-4 and re-inviting and for the hassle it would gain us very little. I also fail to see how this stops someone growing because there is more users under a CMS.
Why do you think Freedom as a network is going downhill and losing partners faster than anyone else? For crying out loud almost all the Master Networks under Freedom arent even with Freedom anymore. They left because Freedom was offering them nothing they couldnt get anywhere else for better.
Personally I know we have issues at the moment but we are not declining growth is still up though has slowed slightly. Going downhill fast is not the case here from the latest figures that were pulled Friday.
