hmm, 36k+ views isn't enough for payment off BentPixels

36k views is more than enough to earn at least some money, bent pixels have no threshold. Even if 10% of the views were monetized he'd likely earn at least 1-10$.

Last week Bent Pixels also tweeted about this. They ended the tweet with "but you knew that already". Looks like the CEO of BP wanted a free dinner at McDonald's?
 
Bent Pixels? That sounds like a shady network. if this problem occurs again just threaten to leave until they cave in or leave and join machinima/fullscreen
They are one of the largest MCNs. They are not a shady network. I would join bent pixels 1000 times over before partnering with Machinima right now. To the OP, you should have earned $10-30. If they won't pay it, I honestly wouldn't even worry as you could make more than that working for a day at McDonalds... I do not believe they have a threshold though. Make sure you talk to someone directly at BentPixels not Console Kings. Good luck, but don't stress about it. :)

I spoke to BentPixels themself and they are refusing but that's true better off getting a job at McDonalds and get a higher pay lol
 
In all fairness no matter how much it is, if they're refusing to pay him something he earned, that's a bit douchey :/
If they are not legally required to pay it, then they do not need to pay it. That is business. We would need to see his specific contract to find out if they are required to. :( If they are required to pay it, then they are breaking the law, and it is much more than "Douchey"...
