Thanks for your reply. I wonder, how could a stranger's comment cause a change in how my post pays out? In any case, this issue has occurred on all my video posts on 3Speak in the past 3 weeks. The one that particularly bothers me is here, because as I mentioned, that's a charity I run, and every single microsatoshi has been calculated and earmarked for the cause. I understand why such a service charges a fee, that's not my problem. My problem is that the fee has taken money from a charity, against the wishes of the contributors. It's a small amount, but it's the principle of it. I don't want to make trouble for anyone, but this service should not be triggering accidentally, because real world problems like mine can result. Hopefully somebody can sort it out so this doesn't become a bigger problem in the future.

Do you use a template or anything when you make those specific 3speak posts? You are positive @liqwid is not a beneficiary of those posts?

I assume my answer to those questions is "no", since I don't even know what a template is, or what beneficiaries of posts are.
I'm just a content-creator on Steem who recently started also uploading to 3Speak. The 3Speak posts are being liquidated by that service (which I've never interacted with until now). My other posts aren't being liquidated (they are paying out normally).

Did you ever get this sorted?

Partially, yeah. I've heard that liqwid is "forced on" for all 3speak posts. So there's no way to use 3Speak without giving part of your money to liqwid (essentially a payday loan advance) and burning 3% of it to @null, which is after the curators have taken their half, and the whales have taken their pillage share if your post didn't make at least $11.
In other words, you'll be lucky to see 1/4 of the payout showing on your 3speak posts.

Well, the 3% is negligible, a fair compromise considering you get the SP rewarded in liquid STEEM.. my opinion though.

3Speak charges a monthly fee to upload though, doesn't it? As well do they still take 10% from your author rewards right off the bat, so technically likwid would only be receiving 100% of your 90% of author rewards (or 40% of your creator reward, however you want to look at it) ?

Better off storing your videos on IPFS and embedding them yourself at that rate :/

True. I mean I'm happy they exist, and hope others pop up doing something similar (so there's more of a free market of options), but I think I should learn about storing vids on IPFS. Been meaning to anyway. (If you have any good links or advice please feel free to mention.)
