Is the Amazon Issue Resolved or Not?

   The message about the Amazon earnings delay is still up on the earnings page. This issue is resolved, is it not? So why is the message still there?
   
   I wasn't even going to mention it but it has been a few weeks now.
   
   It's a small thing, but it kind of suggests that nobody is paying attention. I've had a few other experiences lately that make me wonder if the broken links checker and duplicate content filter are still working.
   
   It would be a shame if HubPages were to fall into disrepair due to neglect. The old Team held the site together through some pretty rough times. With the backing of Maven now, it seems like things should be better than ever.
   
   So, what the heck is going on?

      Hi Eric. Thank you for bringing this to our attention! It should be gone now.

         Thank you, Samantha.
         
         Are the broken links and dupe checkers still functioning?

         Given that we had our Amazon revenue effectively more than halved, I did expect some sort of official announcement. Just some sort of engagement explaining what happened. Maybe there was an email or something and I missed it?

            I must have missed the email too. I was expecting the same thing.

            I'm sure most if not all of us did. A statement saying we've got new commission rates would suffice.

               We weren’t really sure until they resolved the reporting issue. There was little communication. But I understand, it's frustrating.

                  Do we now know what the rates are? Are they the same as individual affiliates or somewhat different?

                     These are the current metrics, but they do change fairly often.
                     
                     
                     
                     And here's an overview guide of affiliate commissions:

                        Thanks for the clarification, Samantha.
