Its a really funny situation. But unfortunately, we can, just wait, when Envato will begin to make any appropriate changes.

Crazy!)))
I know we have to wait, but this stolen-low quality tracks-shady new authors situation is out of control!
We already know that AJ canât protect us outside the marketplace, but what about inside?

I donât want to create a conspiracy theories but this is very near sabotage from concurency.Maybe someone took pretty big ammount of $ to do all thisâŚOr maybe just automated aprovalâŚ
Few days ago, they have released automatic update and maybe this all mess has something with itâŚIt is all software controlled and maybe itâs just a bug that needs a fixâŚBut the main question is : what will they do with such big ammount of fake profiles, poor sounding tracks and stolen music ???

Iâm sure it is possible for programmers to put in a system where while the preview track you uploaded and is waiting in the queue, is cross checked with Shazam or whatever is available for this purpose and flags the track accordingly for the reviewer to see. Other than that, an author task force working shifts manning the gates

I remember when Envato expanded to USA they answered questions about filling W-8 and W-9 forms very very soon, but when we (Authors) asked questions about decreasing incomes and paying taxes only by authors (that IS NOT FAIR AT ALL) they didnât even try to click on thread to view it !!!
It seems they only reply to those questions that make more money for them.
Automatic approval of new authors? Yikes. Surely that sort of experiment should be done with trusted authors? Iâm wondering If they want to do as creative market.
They released automatic update for already aproved itemsâŚSee the Automatic Approval of Item Updates
Has anyone tried uploading to their regular account. To see if itâs new authors or new items that are going right through?
lâm one of them. I think itâs a good move but not for new first items!

Yes and i think that something is messed up with that.
Stolen items is a big problem for everyone : authors, Envato, clientsâŚ
Is it just a coincidence, that all this started right on weekend? I donât think so⌠
Hey Alec_Koff, I see one of your items just appeared, is this that one submited 1 month ago ?
Itâs not funny anymore. For Godâs sake! Whatâs going on?!
