I love seeing dua supporters CRY, it's my daily medicine, my weekly energy, my monthly inspiration and my yearly motivation. Their loss is the only reason i'm still alive, i was born to love and enjoy the failure that they have achieved.

 

 

 

 

 

OT: A nightmare  Because of that We can't even be happy and satisfied with a new peak and an insane number of weeks in the Top 10

[Ephemeral]

 

 

anyone know what the bulk buying limits are exactly

[Renan90]

 

[Armani?]

Whether it can still go #1 or not depends on how strong that Olivia song holds up in the next coming weeks....

Billboard needs to be transparent. WHAT DID THEY REMOVE? 

Because of bulk buying.  Fans need to be aware that if your using the same credit card or mailing address, they’re going to throw out the sales lol.  
 

It’s not based on transaction, it’s based on household/mailing address/credit card.

Then I hope we will win soon enough

They’re not going to do this for BTS and they’ll have the article up on Sunday  

[Katy V.!]

They really cornered themselves

 

They should've waited until Butter went #1 and then apply these rules on 2nd week. If they really cared about fraudulent sales/streams (or even just about BTS) they would've changed the rules after Life Goes On

Why did these sales get removed? While that's not disclosed by Billboard when doing sales audits, international fans buying with a US VPN can result in filtering. This is just one possible factor, along with others, such as exceeding bulk-buying limits.

She was indeed robbed cause the song is a big hit and she deserves a #1 but.. how tf did she rack up over 20k pure sales when she doesn't have a big fanbase - especially in the USA? 

you tell me , the song literally has 3847327374847 versions up on itunes and website 

 

[Price of Fame]

Only 2 points?

 

My Leave the Door Open streaming paid off

This day will go down in ATRL history

This is a CRIME! They SABOTAGED Dua and DaBaby! Let's file a class action lawsuit citing damages and trauma.

 

The real #1 is Levitating. Levitating is #1 in our hearts.

It depends. If this isn't done to BTS, then that would only mean this was done to Dua because Billboard found actual evidence of fraudulent sales. If that's the case, this is deserved.

[MAKSIM]

I’m going to buy Future Nostalgia if this means the BTS fraud is overruled by Billboard

[americanlife]

I am not happy right now!

It would be if it was announced, international fans have been buying songs for years to help artists out on the charts, why single dua out now

Because they are testing out their new formula before bts releases? Dua the sacrificial lamb

When we were buying Savage Remix last summer, our group didn't do more than 3 or 4 at a time.

[Red Velvet]

I am fine with Billboard doing this but it needs to be consistent, especially with a certain release coming up.

[HASHTAGPOW]

We are suing. Period.

 

[QueenofCopyPaste]

Billboard has taken action into the MCR rules. VPN sales/Non-US websites sales are now no longer counted in the tracking system.

 

 

BUT THE TIMING!

[gotportugal]

They tweaked the radio formula when BMH was gonna peak in the top10 and.... they do it AGAIN to help LTDO 

 

 

 

Gary Trust must truly hate her, I'm 100% sure something is up

Of course they will

Dynamite debuted with 1.8M streams on US Spotify. 

I can see Billboard  removing most of streams either
