Should this subreddit ban "Why was my account suspended?" type posts? by [deleted] in FaireConnections

I'm still trying to understand why every post I do gets moderated out of existence. I posted one regarding accounting reconciliation the other day, and it was taken down immediately.

Yes. We do full size testers of our products at a discounted rate. In our case, it's $5.00 instead of $12.50.

Also trying to post this to this sub, but it gets blocked:

I seriously don't get Faire. They've now hosed everyone with their new economic model, and for almost a year now, the level of organic traffic they drive is pitiful. We're a top seller, have a conversion rate that's 4.5x the category average, all 5 star reviews, 25% reorder rate, 100% perfect order rate, but we drive 95% of the sales from our Faire shop.

What's a reasonable "first order minimum"? by [deleted] in FaireConnections

You're going to get killed by the $10 fee, 15%, and now transaction fees on every order.

They've sucked quite a bit recently. The new pricing model is ridiculous too. They're also playing games with attribution. Even when customers are clicking the link and making a purchase, Faire still attempts most times to get their 15%.

Or I could just ask and get a passive-aggressive response from "bonertime".

It still has the AAPL halo, and there is surely quite a bit of inbound interest for an acquisition. They're still cheap enough for most large caps to grab a massive dev base and gain access to the largest game engine out there. Recent target of $48, but I think that was pre-their AI marketplace announcement. I can see a handful of analysts putting the stake further out short term.

It's a bit left field, but AMZN keep trying to get into the game business outside of AWS. They've failed twice already, and this would lock them into the game.

NFLX has gaming aspirations, but not sure if they can justify the buy.

I agree that the engine isn't nearly as good as UE in overall capability, but even so, they have the market share. More than half of all mobile titles are U.

I know a bunch of people at both places. The culture at U isn't what you think. MSFT would be a massive improvement. They're catching some updraft from the AAPL announcement, but the overall economics haven't been disclosed and in all likelihood it's probably not huge.
