About My Patreon Rewards Status
🕑 Added 2020-05-05 14:48:53 +0000 UTCIt has been many years and there have been changes that came along the way because of Patreon's own issues and updates. etc
I used to give out my MBI/Character Image Pack rewards the same way that the majority of other artist's do and that is by private one time direct messages with a private link every start of the month(the 1st).
This had complications because I felt obligated to push out my main image pack rewards out asap on the 1st and during that time, many supporters cards/accounts were not processed so they would miss rewards. When any finally processed hours to days later I was not notified by Patreon and I had no effective way to keep up with that issue.
I now try to post all my MBI/Character Image Pack rewards content directly into posts so yes... even fresh brand new supporters can get their hands on as many things as possible...
only a very few packs remain direct message only. It just feels way the hell off to me and some of my friends to see someone drop $10+ for a reward tier and grab hundreds of dollars worth of content then dip off to never come back... (If that starts to happen too much again I will go back to Mass Private Message Rewards)
Does this open rewards to all hurt my Patreon in the long run? Maybe so. Now that I post on the 5th and 15th I could go back to doing the same Private Message way others do... but even then there would still be complications even then. I don't think most people know I do things this way or even care that I do things differently here. I have a Gumroad as well and it has been very very helpful. Some people still don't like Patreon or subscriptions.
eh, that's enough of that for now...
Oh well. Thanks for the support.
Stay safe and have a good one.

I might have to go back to DMs, but for now I'll leave it as is for a while. just for a little while longer i think...

I understand your frustration and appreciate the effort you take to make it fair for your patreons and yourself. I believe there will always be a margin on both sides the benefit that allows some to take advantage while causing issues from those who are being fair. Just keep up the good work and adjust your balance as you can.
