    @j9streams @CatchMeStreamin @FacebookGaming It may take a little longer if she isn't a partner. A lot of the messages are automated, so tell them make sure to get an actual person to help them.

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch Still going on 2 years with thousands of donations not paid out! They have to many broken issues to even have this discussion. I was at a higher peak before covid when it was “normal” the platform is straight broken and possibly beyond repair at this point

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch 4) More support for Partners and Level-Up. There’s far too many of us for them to properly assist each one of us in the way that’s needed. 5) Fix broken features FIRST. We don’t need more things. We can go live and do our jobs JUST fine. We need the existing things to work.

    Is Facebook Gaming broken… or is it becoming a pay to succeed platform? Are Facebook showing us that to succeed on the platform we need to be using adds, have big star senders! @FacebookGaming why are reach and views so low? Why are you crippling us? #broken #tellus #views

    Child Please (@wewentbluez) reported

    @FacebookGaming: please make sure you only use our library of music to ensure you don’t get in trouble. Me: ok sure Facebook: we’re sorry part of your live stream contains copyright music. Like WTF Facebook?!?!? Fix your ****.

    @BloodEagleGamin @FacebookGaming I thought the same thing tbf. Facebook gaming is defo broken. It will only benefit the streamers who have massive followings already. The newer guys will struggle as Facebook doesn't see them as an asset to their page which I think is disgusting

    @FacebookGaming you pride yourself on wanting to be the best, but you can not even payout on a streamers stars, your help and support service is poor at best please get this sorted or @twitch will gain more user's

  • TheRealMemesOG
    HereForTheMemes (@TheRealMemesOG) reported

    Thinking when we hit affiliate we could turkey switch to @Twitch until @FacebookGaming gets analytics down better, as a full time streamer supporting two kids on this income it’s to much to worry about income with facebooks broken analytics. #streamers #SupportSmallStreamers

  • IGotPuppies
    IGotPuppies (@IGotPuppies) reported

    I hope that @FacebookGaming takes note of, and FIXES, all of the issues plaguing their platform. It’s scary to see that, despite a commitment to not profit share, people are still flocking to other platforms.

    @FacebookGaming @CallofDuty this is all well and good, but have tried getting your stars paid out, have you tried dealing with your support, the level of help and service is poor at best and not good enough, i just want what im owed

  • IGotPuppies
    IGotPuppies (@IGotPuppies) reported

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch 3) A clearer teaching/understanding of the algo. When one goes from 35% recommended views to 7% whilst production and quality of content is increasing doesn’t make sense, as according to FB those things would boost my reach/recommendations.

    C'mon @FacebookGaming get your crap together. Been broken since day one.

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch 5. I noticed when facebook has a cause or something they decide to push that month... aka I saw they were live with 40k viewers I had my worst stream of the year then thr next day was back to normal... like stop stealing potential viewers for a facebook gaming live stream!

    @RawMontanaFB @BikeyMrown @FacebookGaming I start my streams with a thumbnail scene for 5 seconds.. which used to work. Now all of my old and current lives just cop a random frame from within the video for a thumbnail 😒

    @ItsHellaFoxxy @FacebookGaming I see this a lot and im sorry that pretty much all content creators are having these issues on fbg. I started there as well. And while I miss fbg I won't go back until they resolve their issues and based on their history. That will not happen. Would love to be proven wrong.

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch Always appears. 3. Lack of communication for support from Facebook. If you have issues they say they will do 2 things... we are still looking into the issue. Or they give you some random link to help that doesn't apply and force close your case. I may be a small fish in the ..

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch Yes I do all that. And on a 12 hour stream no one gets notified. It’s the same 5-10 ppl for the last 3 months. It’s broken

  • AngryVetGaming
    AngryVet (@AngryVetGaming) reported

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch 1. Lots of people are back to work and now able to go out and enjoy things outside of home with things opening up. 2. Using and watching people on the app is difficult. Chat stops updating, raids don't take people to the correct channel. The app randomly crashing. Stars don't ...

    The Wayward Gamer (@timeghost297) reported

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch There are two big issues IMO: First: the priority of the algorithm is paid over organic with minimized batch notifies. Increased batch size is a paid reward Second: Currently Live are only prioritized in search if they are partners and/or have accumulated a target metric w/FB

    And just like that, my new page can’t be monetized AGAIN for the same reason. Can someone from FB please help me 🥺 @CatchMeStreamin @FacebookGaming

    Can anyone help me reclaim my @FacebookGaming page? My old personal page was hacked & I believe deleted. Idk how to get my gaming page under my current personal page.

    @Mikky_Jayy @FacebookGaming @Twitch Sea but if I raise close to 6 figures in less than a year in stars alone who does it still say I haven't received my first stars yet in the dashboard!! Just one example.. 4. Consistently changing things that aren't broken while not fixing the things that are.

    MikkyJayy (@Mikky_Jayy) reported

    @NathanNLG @FacebookGaming @Twitch Okay, now let me ask you. How do you think that would help you in a sea of content creators? When about 80% of Twitch partners aren’t making a living wage.
