Thanks I believe it is necessary now also.

It's true that going for subcoins was not the next logical step with all the issues. Beta usually means they are ironing things out not adding more crap that may not work.

You are right, highest payout is not the way to sort the pages at all. This really should have been obvious in the get go. Funny thing is that it was never really stated that it was being sorted that way. Those of us that know that had to figure it out on our own or be told that by someone who did figure it out on their own. Honestly that seems a little shady to me. Myself, along with many others have actually done tests to see just how you get into hot and trending tabs because it is all cloak and dagger lol.

I can say with utter certainty that if I was told that 5 months ago (how it was sorted) I probably would not have signed up. That would have been a real red flag for me. Now I'm sort of stuck here lol. I'm invested in the platform in many ways so it is hard to leave. Plus the curiosity of seeing where it is going keeps me here.

As far as the money aspect goes it is really getting watered down. High posts when I joined were $1500+ now it is like $180+. That is not much time to have fallen so drastically and much of that seemed to be overnight.

I was hoping to launch a writing presence from this platform and like you state it fell instead of growing. My time would have been better spent holed up writing then scraping together a publisher.

For some reason I still hold faith that it will either become something or that someone else will build something much better soon.
