To Sonar Studios,

For months, I've dedicated myself to @cosupdatenews on TikTok, a unique and rapidly growing news platform for the Creatures of Sonaria community. With 23,500 passionate followers – a number that rivals the average active player count of the game itself – I don't just "repost" dev feed updates; I transform them into captivating, professional-grade content through creative editing, compelling storytelling, and a distinct visual style. Each video is carefully crafted, featuring custom logos purchased out of my own pocket and bespoke content for every event, pushing the boundaries of what's expected from a news account. This includes comprehensive coverage of every update, from detailed campfire recaps and stat change analyses to exciting fan-made event teasers and trailers.

My account was born from a desire to fill a void in the CoS community. I recognized the need for a dedicated news source that went beyond simple information dissemination and embraced a truly creative approach to sharing updates. As a mobile player, I was limited in my ability to capture high-quality in-game footage, and I refused to compromise my commitment to quality and detail. Instead, I channeled my creativity into producing engaging news videos that overcame those limitations and delivered information in a compelling and visually appealing way.

Despite the undeniable value I bring to the CoS community – and the countless hours, sleepless nights, and personal sacrifices I've made to build this platform – I've been repeatedly denied access to the Content Creator Program. While no specific reason was given, it's assumed my work falls under the restrictive "copy and paste" label. This is a disheartening assessment that undermines the sheer amount of passion, creativity, and financial investment poured into this endeavor – an investment that includes purchasing CapCut Premium and custom logos to elevate the quality of my content.

Beyond news updates, I've expanded the @cosupdatenews brand into other realms. This includes a foray into a Spanish-language version of the account (which, while ultimately too time-consuming to maintain, demonstrated my commitment to reaching a wider audience), and a meme account (@cosupdatememes) that achieved fair success despite limited activity. These ventures, alongside my core news content – an upcoming creature lore series, a Sonaria lore video, trailers for my news account, award shows, and fan-made event trailers – all contribute to a unique and trusted brand that has evolved far beyond simple "copy and paste."

This evolution has been fueled by countless hours honing my skills and refining my style. Behind the scenes, a library of unpublished videos stands as a testament to my dedication to constant improvement. Through trial and error, experimentation, and meticulous attention to detail, I've cultivated a distinct and recognizable style. Even something as simple as the CapCut AI voice has become synonymous with my account in the CoS community, a testament to how effectively I've crafted a unique identity and vibe for my content.

What truly sets my account apart are the exclusive developer interviews, the occasional early exclusive information I'm granted permission to share, the fan-made trailers, the award show, and the extensive coverage of all update aspects – elements that distinguish my work from truly "copy and paste" accounts. These interviews, conducted with the utmost professionalism and impartiality, provide invaluable insights to the community and solidify my position as a reliable and trusted source of information. My commitment to journalistic integrity focuses on accuracy, clarity, and providing a comprehensive overview of developments within the CoS world. This dedication, coupled with my strong connection to the CoS community, makes me a worthy representative of the Content Creator Program.

It's also important to highlight the support I receive from official CCs who recognize the value of my work and actively advocate for my inclusion in the program. These creators, my friends and colleagues, understand that the current criteria unfairly exclude dedicated individuals like myself who contribute significantly to the CoS ecosystem.

Sonar Studios, I urge you to reconsider your criteria and acknowledge the vital role creative news accounts play in the success of Creatures of Sonaria. By embracing diverse content creators like myself, you can foster a more inclusive and rewarding environment for everyone.

Join me in signing this petition to ensure that passionate content creators receive the recognition and support we deserve. Let's work together to make the CoS Content Creator Program a truly representative and inclusive space.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

@cosupdatenews
