Can anyone please inform us what exactly we need to do in order for the NLWC to properly collect for the events they do? I’ve seen all kinds of tweets/posts about other creators stealing off some of the money meant for the NLWC. So how do we insure that doesn’t happen again?
Is it based on your subscriptions? Clicks? How you view? I’m subscribed to NLWC and Smalls. It can’t be this hard to understand, right?
I'll give it a go....
1. "It can’t be this hard to understand, right?".
- Wrong. When translating mathematic algorithms back into English--especially attempting so from the outside, in reverse engineering fashion, it absolutely can be extremely difficult. Rokfin's algo explanations are out there, though, in however many different places (their RAE White Paper is one; Floreani's twitter vids are another, tho)
2. "Can anyone please inform us what exactly we need to do in order for the NLWC to properly collect for the events they do?".
- The mainest/first thing we can control is: which Rokfin Page to Subscribe (initiate our Rokfin platform membership) to when we sign up.
3. "I’ve seen all kinds of tweets/posts about other creators stealing off some of the money meant for the NLWC. So how do we insure that doesn’t happen again?"
- All of that was about trying to get ppl to choose a non-NLWC Page for a new Subscriber's Initial Platform Signup. Home Mat Advantage did this ahead of the NLWC Sept Event, but pretty quickly deleted it.
- If you have already signed up ("Subscribed"), the signup portion of the algo has already been apportioned to the Page you Signed Up via ("Subscribed")
- If you wish, you *could still: cancel your platform Subscription, and create a new one under a different Page
- Anthony Ashnault suggested this after the NLWC event, when he first appeared on Rokfin, but also subsequently deleted it. The deletions of these "stealing" attempts seem to indicate (along with Floreani specifically acknowledging Cael's expressions of beef about the practice) that the Platform founders recognize it's against the spirit of the Rising Tide Lifts All Boats aspect they market the platform on, for Creators to compete against each other for this, apparently coveted, Home Page Subscription/Signup.
4. "Is it based on your subscriptions? Clicks? How you view? I’m subscribed to NLWC and Smalls."
- Unless you currently own & pay for TWO separate Rokfin Subscriptions, you are not "Subscribed" to both NLWC AND Smalls
- "Following" is a separate feature inside the platform, likely with its own algorithmic $ apportionment tied to it, which is different than the Subscribed apportionment. How much of your $10 pie is apportioned to Subscription and how much is apportioned to Following, I don't know the answer, b/c I haven't unpacked the White Paper or Floreani videos yet.
- "Clicks" & "Views" (the same thing) of different Pages or content inside those pages undoubtedly earn some portion of the algorithmic $ distro as well, but how much, I do not know
