@Svntvmvriv 1. KPP, The "Game-changer", flagship feature of KICK- most partners STILL complaining that 75% of pay is gone /w no transparency & getting runaround with A.I. Support/Managers. What does being a partner mean? Many worked too hard for it/praised KICK only to be treated this way.
Hey X Fam! 🤍
This is Liberty, Hokies wife. It has been a long time, and I know Hokie misses you all more than words can say. He is continuing his fight, though it is a long-term battle he will have to carry with him moving forward. Along with his ongoing chemotherapy, he has recently needed regular blood transfusions to help keep his strength up. He has lost a significant amount of weight and is really struggling to maintain an appetite right now (I, on the other hand, seem to be eating enough for both of us to make up for it!).
If you haven’t seen him around in the streams or chats lately, please know it isn't because he doesn't want to see or support you. It has just been incredibly painful for him to log on and feel the weight of how much has been abruptly taken from him.
As you can imagine, this ongoing battle has also brought an immense emotional and financial strain. If you are in a position to help ease the burden on our family during this time, we have set up a GoFundMe here: https://t.co/1WAoIbfSzR
Life can be completely baffling, and seeing someone as wonderful as Hokie go through this feels like a heavy blow. Still, we are holding onto our faith and trusting in God's plan. Please continue to look out for one another, lift each other up, and remember how deeply valued every single one of you is. We appreciate your love, prayers, and support more than words can say. 🙏✨
Today is a good day to smile, relax, and be grateful for all the good things you have. Happy Sunday!

@Average_Shad "This other platform over here does this!" Maybe that is the problem: the platform is becoming like those ones. "Are Kick perfect"? What are we trying to defend here? Maybe ppl should have higher expectations/boundaries. Don't forget to vote though, and choose "lesser evil!"
https://t.co/hwFTOLSLNx Notice KPP & pay transparency are not mentioned? They are happy to cut creators who worked hard to meet the metrics, to reward others with less effort & less pay. This is why ppl are leaving. OG creators seeing time on your platform as a bad investment.
We've been listening to the feedback that is going around on socials, and what we've heard when Ed and I have been live on KICK Talk - so I wanted to give everyone an update on what we've done about it.
First one was that we weren't featuring enough people and the front page was a little too static and sticky for creators that were featured for extended periods of time. Our feature team has pushed hard on this, working with our account management and partnerships teams, and we've now featured over 3,000 creators over the last two weeks.
Second was around our homegrown and loyal creators. The ones who've been grinding with us for ages but haven't quite hit the metrics to get partnered and monetised. We went through the data (and jumped in a lot of chats) and we're partnering over 100 creators immediately. If that includes you, you'll be getting an email from us over the next 24 hours.
We know it's not a perfect science and data can't drive all decisions so if you feel like you should have been included and have been rocking with us for years? Send your pitch to [email protected] and tell us how and why you meet the criteria we mentioned on KICK Talk. We're talking 2-3 years streaming on KICK and close to achieving partner, but if you're not quite there we may be able to help with that final push. OGs deserve to be acknowledged by the platforms they helped build.
Speaking of creators who've been with us through the whole journey, we're currently designing an OG Streamer Badge that will be rolled out to our most consistent and loyal streamers who've been here since near the start of KICK. We haven't locked in a name yet, so we want your help. Drop your best name ideas below.
Please keep the feedback coming. It helps us improve and shapes what we work on next, so keep it honest and keep it coming.
@Average_Shad Other ppl get handouts. I was earning minimum, sometimes above, but guys earning like $2k/hr via Santamaria, or that earn $27k a month are suddenly "small creators"? How convenient! What a strawman. AND the new fast track program for ppl /w 20 ccv!" But yea, im makin too much XD
@Average_Shad Other places are transparent. It was what Kick was offered. Then they snap their fingers & it's gone, along with ~2 week's worth of $ i would have had under old KPP & new wage is below minimum. You can argue semantics, but this is scummy. Other ppl are living off of it.

An OG badge is basically a participation trophy
I would like to be recognised as an OG by not having my KPP rate pulled from under me and being part of a system with fair rates to all. I don't want to be a stepping stone for the 1% that only came along when there was a bag.
@KICKEthan You gonna reward ppl who can't hit the metrics & not the creators who put in the actual work? Here's an idea: let's just revert September KPP changes! Lower/remove multi-stream toggle penalty? Pay transparency & the Trust Centre? It is well over the week announcement of it!
@BOBO_KICK@StakeEddie@Svntvmvriv Ppl saying this aren't even partners... yet want Kick to help them get there through a new "Kick homegrown creator boost" program. Clearly what Kick wants: a paycut by getting rid of the rest of us & an elevation of ppl that can finally enjoy (gutted) KPP. Meritocracy, for sure!
@kick_racing@Wittlebears@Svntvmvriv Yes, it is their fault. No other job just shuts off their pay INSTANTANEOUSLY, lies about it, and gaslights/insults their employees and expects continued loyalty. Not doing any of that is bad investment for anyone. But keep licking boots!
@Wittlebears@Svntvmvriv I invested everything into Kick, and this is what they did. Yes, it was a mistake on my part which I'll learn from. Just another shady corporation screwing people over, big surprise, I know. I'm not going to reward these ppl with my loyalty anymore after what they did with it.
@Wittlebears Because they flat out lied to us first saying that nothing changed, then it was a "bug" /w KPP, while looking the other way with other creators regarding 'inauthentic viewership'. @Svntvmvriv used Cuffem & Saucewalkaas examples of "smaller creators" to strawman us.
