I'm not compared with from low to growing.

But my comparation is from the highest we got and current moment, like we got from 2K-3K people to around 15-20K people from usually time and in some section we got around 20K-30K. Now is just around 7-10K and in some section around 12-15K maybe in weekly we got around 20K but is only for the stream after that the number will be decrease.

Is truly showing the downfall, with the promotion they are using.

Well, if you would have followed the weekly stream regularly you would know that in fact it is true and the bonus mechanism has been changed. Eddie mentioned that several times, also at the official stake community some mods explained this after many people complained about way to small bonus amounts.

Before the bonus was calculated by VIP level and wager amount. For weekly it was base amount plus approximately 1$ for every 1k wagered. These days are over. Now wins/losses, deposits/withdrawals and wager (the higher the house edge the more it counts towards the bonus). VIP level doesn't really come into play anymore, which really is a shame. People worked hard to reach a certain level and now it's pretty much worthless. 

I'm not really sure what was the reason why Stake decide to change their bonus mechanism while it has been running for years and this is what make players stay in Stake. I think I have to agree with ryzaadit because it seems that the number of online players is starting to get lower than before and maybe it will continue to get lower number in the future. Well they are going to celebrate their 6th anniversary next month, if there will be no more special thing like what they used to have in the previous years then we can expect that they will lose players more and more.

You gotta look at the amount of money they spend on promotions. You have roughly 9 million dollars a week going out in weekly bonuses, you have streamers getting paid, you have the weekly raffle, 100k race daily, forum giveaways, celebrity sponsorships, and the signature campaign here. Stake is spending a shitload of money!!! They cannot just give away large amounts to users who earned a VIP level for life unless you are playing, depositing, active on the site, or whatever. I also heard you earn a little less if playing the stake originals only, but I have no idea if that's true.

Bottom line, they're a business and have to make cuts here and there. If you are level 2 verified and wager a decent amount weekly($8-10k) they do quite a few bonus drops as well as the weekly stream usually has $25-50 weekly for users to claim.

Instead of being pissed that you're not getting what you used to get every week, enjoy the fact that you get anything. Not all sites give you free money weekly. If you were the owner of the site, would you give away all your profits? Or would you look for ways to be generous, but also allow your business to grow and still profit?

We have had similar promotions like these in the past one-years ago, there is nothing affected to us. Streamer, promotion with the club and other think but recently is just change and that effect us. They cost too much spending on something that is really burning money, is that what they offer to us and we have nothing wrong to complain about because we grind for the rank "VIP" as well and to be qualified we also need to Wagger & Potential losing money as well.  The change is really2 happening after the "Kicks.com", we all know "Stake" owned that. Kicks make a movement to try invite streamers to their stream with private deals, costing more or doing the same things "Mixer" did against Twitch. Kick not gonna make revenue for the next few years (There also have some chance failed because they burn too much money and do not make revenue from the streaming service just like Mixer).

Because of the other service, from (Kicks), they use the stake budget for covering Kicks spending financial. I don't mind, they spending on promotion even though we all know the stream/celebrity playing with affiliated money. The only problem because to much burning money our portion needed to be cut for covering it. Anyway about promotion, is not free too we off course need to deposit and wagering (not completed free). Unless is free, then I can agree with you too.

If we look at the complaints in the Stake forum, most of the complaints are even coming from Platinum 2-3 players.
It means that your assumption is not really correct that only lower than Gold accounts which are affected.
However I have to say that I do not feel significant deduction but I also have to say that my weekly/monthly bonus is a bit lower than I used to get although my wagering statistic is mostly similar every week or month.
I wont complain now but I think I'll do the same as other who make complaints in the stake forum if I get something which is unusual like $5-10 monthly bonus for Platinum 2-3 users.

@seleme I personally believe that Stake detection methods are improving and they’ll continue to improve hence people should voluntarily give up their other accounts and come clean or just stop using them because such actions hurt casinos and we don’t want anything to happen to Stake. Furthermore if people are aware of other people alt accounts then they should contact Stake with proof and help them ban these accounts so we all can continue receiving amazing benefits from Stake.
