ive been holding off discussing this topic here until ive talked to enough players to confirm its effecting many. where have all the shard videos gone? its been over a month since ive seen a single one. 

i used to log in and go straight to "earn points" but that regimen has faded :(

i here from a lot of players saying i was lucky to get them at all in my country, other than that who else is having this issue?

Im having the same trouble Smileynirv. It has been a while since i had an opportunity to see a video. And it was one of the only things that actually paid out. Please, solve this HCS.

yes I live in the USA and their use to be multiple video shards worth 20 shards daily months ago , now I don't see them and when I do its sadly one video worth 1 shard  if i'm lucky then no more videos after that.  :(

There plenty of other virtual rewards companys they can reach out too that actually have offers and pay out makes you wonder why their not doing that.

My guild is very multicultural and no one in the guild has had any shards lately... It's not a problem of region it's something else which HCS really should address...

March/April last year was the last time I had any significant video-shard activity in the UK.

I also get to travel a bit with work, and have seen no activity in the US, Australia or several continental european countries.

 

I had notice a whole lot more smartphone downloads/installs, and had wondered whether this was a shift in target technology, but the installs are going down as well.

actually its hurting their bottom line as well  ... cause when we watch videos not only do the advertisers get a cut .. the cows get a cut for hosting the videos on their site as well. doesn't make business sense not to look into this. I hope the cows do.

Maybe they were hoping turning them off would give them more donations :P.

Shards from videos were great, but they were also the most unfair reward system offered by the game in that your ability to participate was determined purely and simply by your geographic location.

 

So, I, for one, am not too upset that they've gone. At least NO-ONE is getting them now - can't get more equitable than that ;)


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

Guess but i don't do them... I still think it's great that people can make fsps that way... More fsps ingame happier community happier market.

Hey guys.

 

This is actually out of our hands. This is an issue for the Advertisers themselves. They are aware of the problem and are looking to rectify it but, as this is down those Companies, we cannot give you an ETA. Just be aware that they are looking into it.

Curious if you looked into adding more ad's from different companies as well in the meantime? Can't hurt to have more.
