It would be wonderful if you could all spread the message. If you are a CM, write to the teams of your projects and to their fans as well. Thousands of people can be reached with just a copy-paste.

Dear " DRAMA NAME " teams and fans,
You must have noticed that many shows nowadays take a long time to be subbed! Well, in most cases it’s not the volunteers’ fault. The team is too small because many of us cannot access the show because of the country where we live.
And many beautiful old films have suddenly become restricted as well, while the teams were in the middle of working on them.
In the past (until a couple of years ago), regional restrictions had an exception for volunteers. Very rarely there was a drama volunteers couldn’t watch, no matter where in the world they were. No more so. Now more and more dramas are unaccessible even to QC (Qualified Contributors) volunteers.
QCs work hard for Viki and its users, this is a minimum recognition for their efforts. More importantly, allowing us to be able to watch everything is in Viki’s best interest as well. Because if we can’t watch something we also can’t access the subbing tools and work on it. Then those shows don’t have enough team members and the subtitles are excruciatingly slow. The viewers get angry and some cancel or don’t renew their subscriptions.
