New Way to Issue Paid Requests
🕑 Added 2023-02-28 18:15:08 +0000 UTCHey guys! For years, it's been a struggle for me to keep an organized method of tracking your requests, your patronage, and making sure everyone stays happy and gets what they want!
I used to do everything through Discord DMs, but as my server grew, I started getting more and more random messages from fans, or people looking for help with VAM. It got to a point where legitimate patron messages were getting totally buried under mountains of other messages and spam. And unless those patrons spoke up again, they'd stay buried.
So, I started a new channel on the discord which is strictly meant for your requests! It is a temporary write-only channel, which means that your request will not be visible to others unless they're viewing the channel pretty much at the same time as you. As soon as you close out of discord, the message history will be purged.
I am looking into ways to make it completely write-only so that you cannot see other messages but your own at all, but this is the best workaround I have found for the moment.
My goal is to ensure I take care of you guys, and no one falls between the cracks ever again.
So going forward, use the #patreon-requests-official channel on my discord for your patron rewards!

Hey, what do you mean? All the action is on the discord server. Patron is just sort of a front end.

I've written a Discord bot before and one thing you can do, is make a bot that your users can DM, and the Bot posts that into a channel only you can see. It's fairly easy and straight-forward to make.
