Update on Programs and So Forth...

Contributor: Ansley Ansley
Hey guys, first let me say you all have been really awesome and I appreciate all of your support and helpfulness.

I know many of you have questions about how everything is going to work from here on out and I will provide you with as many answers as I possibly can. There's a lot to cover, so let's get to it...

Video Reviews

If you have submitted an assigned video review and have not been paid for it, please send me a link to the video and I will take care of that for you.

Assigned Video Reviews and Slideshows

No new slideshows or assigned video reviews will be accepted at this time. If you have something in progress, please let me know and I will work with you so you are properly compensated.

Descriptive Reviews

There are many waiting to be published, I will go through them and edit as necessary and publish them beginning on Monday. If there are any products to be assigned for DR, I will take care of those as well.

Assignment Requests - Student and Contributor

Please send student requests directly to me, I will assign something from the list as soon as possible (if the product is available for review).

We do have someone in place to approve requests for regular assignments and most if not all requests submitted up until first thing this morning have been approved or canceled as necessary.

Orders and Delays

Some of you may be experiencing delays with your orders being processed. If you are experiencing any issues please contact Ilya directly, (ilya@edenfantasys.com ), and he will be more than happy to assist you.

Contact Information

If you have any questions about events or programs, please send me a message on site or via email to stormy@edenfantasys.co m

I will answer you as quickly as I possibly can and I sincerely appreciate your patience. I have my bearings back and will be back up to speed in no time. I have read all of your messages to me thus far and made notes as needed and will get in touch with you Monday regarding any issues with points, etc.

Okay, so I guess that's it for now. Have a good weekend! (I'm logging off for the day and will respond to any comments left here tomorrow. Thanks!)

I would like to add the following from another thread I replied to:

No need to worry, the systems were updated recently and 1 little mistake caused approximately 140 orders to not be updated with tracking numbers.
Your orders most likely shipped out on time. Customer service has been handling these issues all day and none of the orders were actually delayed. We'll do our best to upload the tracking numbers for you tomorrow.

So, that's it for the slideshows forever then?

I'll send out my student requests now, I'm assuming by email? Well, I sent it that way, hope it's right.

Mine keeps getting cancelled as well.

Not to be the downer on this thread, but with everything that's happened in the last 6 months or so, I have just about lost interest in Eden. I LOVED the site when I first started in the community but it's just not the same anymore.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate what Eden has done for my sex life but I just don't feel engaged anymore. The *want* to be on EF has pulled an Elvis and left the building.

I got rid of the part where I said that, lol because I figured I'd get the same response as before when I mentioned and I honestly think it has to to with me and the crap that happened back in April that I'm not putting out on the forum for everyone to see. But I requested something new, like as soon as it popped up, like 3 times and they all got cancelled so it makes me think it's personal whether someone says it is or not.
I just don't feel as welcome anymore.
I'll do my reviews on my buyouts and that's it. No more requesting anything free or hoping I'll ever get a DR again.
Oh well, at least I can use buyouts and get what I know I'll probably like.

It just doesn't feel the same anymore and it makes me sad

I don't feel as singled out anymore now, hearing it from the two of you. I saw your post Marie, I too feel very frustrated.

I'm confused about what you mean by assigned videos. Do you mean the program where we were sent the item for free in exchange for a video, or do you mean being approved to make for videos for things we had already written a review on?

I have several products that were already approved for a video to be made. Will I still be able to make and submit them?

Thanks so much!

It's almost midnight and I'll get my 3-per-day back. I'll try to find yours. I enjoy reading your reviews anyway.

"...makes me think it's personal whether someone says it is or not. "

The girl doing the assignments is a) Julia b) has never interacted with any of you on any level at any time and c) has basic instructions that if an item has three or more pending assignments and/or reviews for it, no new assignments can be made and that it's first come, first serve. It's always been that way and you know that.

Assignments have never been a matter of "personal", not when Gary was doing it, not when JR was doing it and not when Justin was assigning things.

While I agree completely with you Stormy and have zero doubt that assignments have never been given out due to personal opinions I think that the perception could be there. I too have put in a few requests over the past few months and have not been able to get anything approved for assignments. I have then scanned people's reviews and noticed that others have received an assignment every month and coincidentally they also have a higher rank than I do. Now while I don't think that anything is going on to purposefully be this way the perception is there. Knowing that it's first come first serve makes me feel better and just let's me know now that I need to be quicker on the draw! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

In regards to those with having a higher ranking getting assignments more frequently -- I have a pretty high ranking myself, and I still get denied most of the time that I try for an assignment. I'm just slower than others at requesting the products.

Those people are probably descriptive reviewers.

The only time I have had a issue is when I did not get to it on time. I try not to get what everyone else gets when the new stuff comes out because most likely everyone wants it and it will be first come first serve. I will wait a bit or go with something older to avoid this issue. I also see everyone is on here at certain times of day and night so sometimes when the stuff comes out by time I get up in the morning and get on pc and try to request a assignment I am not fast enough.

Which makes sense now! lol Either way though, I hold no gripes. I enjoy trying and then reviewing new toys whether I get the item for free or not. I just figured I'd be honest and admit that I did have the thought...before it was clarified!

I was denied a lot when it came to the monthly assignments. I just looked for something else until it was accepted. No sweat off my back.

I know a little how you feel with that. I was eyeing something the very first day it came out, waited for a "descriptive review" that never came out, and apparently got beat out by a person that already had about 6 or 8 free products while I had never requested one and that person had the very same rating as me...sometimes it just doesn't seem right. Then to find out when they actually did write the review they got a free product out of...it was about 3 paragraphs, yay =/

I'm wondering that too. I have two I finished that were just plain videos with my reviews and I was allow accepted to do a couple more. Is it all videos or just ones assigned to people for the free product?

I never had any issues until I was treated wrongly. I'm ready to just leave for good. This place doesn't feel friendly anymore.
