Here is my conclusions:

Desicion 01: They just rely on their rating system, they want everything automatic, as you can see most of the videos in the front page are older than your mother. the same copy cat videos keep repating again and again… don’t you feel boring?

Desicion 02: Do we really need wikicafe, how would you feel if the video you posted get amended by someone you don’t know?

Desicion 03: Getting videos Based on API’s provided by YouTube.com is to tell people you are not the original?

Desicion 04: When MC leading the world and telling people how great is the Producer Rewards System can change their life, now they going to Destroy it. you just killing the goose that lays the golden egg right?

Desicion 05: You failed to deliver your promised. will you lost the trust of our Producers and viewers?

If you say Break.com is more successful than Metacafe, I will definently agree with you, because they really know what people want to see about, they are very serious into their business, they hired somebody to make sure every video in the front page must be the newest and coolest.

There were also new rules brought in February specifying the 20,000 minimum views needed to be within 6 months.
At the time we were told that didn’t apply to videos submitted before Feb 2008 .. that promise is now being broken too…
MC has lost the trust of many because of this.
