#i might delete this later bc i usually dont like complaining when it doesnt accomplish anything#and this is a situation none of us can really do anything about#id like to preface this by saying just bc i complain about h*be doesnt mean it has anything to do w the other artists under h*be#this is something thats bothered me for a while but the feelings got renewed today#bc it was revealed that svts jp activities will now be handled by plds + h*be jp rather than pledis + lawson ent#bc of this l&l (sort of a paid jp fancafe) is also ending. and its a shame bc lawsons jp promotions were actually really good#and many carats love l&l and it even became a lot more popular recently bc it was the only content we got during svts sort of hiatus#what im annoyed about and have been frustrated w since the aquisition is h*be doesnt seem to care for fans at all#as far as i know they treat svt themselves well and thats all well and good but as fans we deserve more respect than to be exploited for $#like h*be also made merch more expensive (including making the online concerts rediculously expensive); shut down ssp; & the mbc issue#also i hate to complain but yesterday did leave a bad taste in my mouth and i couldnt figure out what it was until i saw other ppl talk#bc its Not the fact that svt didn't release a longer vid. last year was a milstone year so i didnt expect as much#and im obsessed w the acousitic version of all my live anyway. but its the fact there were 2 vids promoting the annie merch#but not even a 10 min live from the boys. and im not saying its h*bes fault they didnt go live maybe theyre busy w the cb#but the way things played out it felt there was more focus on the merch aspect than actually celebrating w the boys#even if u disagree w any one of these things/think its not h*bes fault or nbd it doesnt matter if u look at the bigger picture#there are actually more complaints about h*be that i personally dont think is their doing like seasons greeting and gose timeslot#but if u look at all of it on the whole its obvious h*be has no consideration for carats feelings and only wants to make money#and obv plds wants to make $ too theyre a company. but it always felt like they were just running a business while h*be feels exploitative#like the moments when plds wanted to make $ at carats expense happened sometimes but w h*be it feels like standard practice u know?#ive always trusted cheol/svt to try and stand up for themselves and us and i stilk do. but how much of a say do they rly have in h*be#cheol has built a relationship w hss and pledis staff for years + svt had the leverage of being plds's main money maker#h*be has more shareholders to please and while svt is still a big money maker h*be has a lot of assets so svt doesnt have as much leverage#dont get me wrong im not worried at all about h*be disbanding svt or anything like that svt is still a big $ maker#+ theyll fight tooth and nail before getting disbanded. as i said before im not worried atm about how the members are treated under h*be#but i worry they might have lost some of their ability to fight for us carats#like i said im not necessarily this upset over any one issue but all of these issues show to me that h*bes only priority is making money#theres no balance bt making money + pleasing fans. or at least not enough#and im scared about the future implications of that. what other things will be sacrificed in the name of h*be making money?#melia.txt
