--- Quote from: SpaceStockFootage on September 03, 2019, 01:44 ---Yeah, they said they 'may' invite you to join the member library in the future, so they're keeping some of your footage in your account (rather than deleting them when the marketplace closes) so that if they do invite you (and you decide to join) you don't have to upload them again. Nowhere did they say that your content is going to automatically enter the subscription service when the marketplace is deleted. At present, both of those need to happen for your content to join the member library... and neither of them has happened. Might be worth reading it again yourself!

"If you do not wish to join the Partner Program, please email..."
This sentence then sounds strange, don't you think so? :)

No, it means they can delete all of your clips right away and give your spot in the queue to someone else.
Rasika:
I hope you are right.

Unless someone just has a super "bad" portfolio (unlikely in the first place, otherwise they wouldn't have accepted the submissions)... I suspect it is just a pyschological trick to try and make contributors "feel" they may be missing out on something, i.e., sense of urgency - "uh oh, better act now, or I could "miss out"!".
I believe the queue is totally artificial, and has nothing to do with them being "backed up".
They would probably be ecstactic if 100% of contirbutors agreed to their watered down program where they can pay them peanuts.
But since not everyone is excited as they thought about their "great news" about screwing over contributors again, they are trying this to get people to sign up.

Alas, I was rejected from their new "fantastic" program. But as Groucho Marx once said, "I don't want to join any club that would accept me as a member." So in the end we both win.

Classical phishing...
