Made a change to my settings
🕑 Added 2017-06-07 18:27:11 +0000 UTC In light of a recent rash of fraudulent accounts pledging to my Patreon account I have initiated the Charge Up Front feature. This means any new Patrons pledging will be automatically charged, after that it will charged them in the usual fashion at the start of the month. I did not want to use this feature but the problem has started to take up more and more of my time.Note if you respond to this post you are almost certainly not part of the problem.

Ouch I'm sorry to hear that, that stuff gets real old real fast.

I may not be part of that problem, but I am a completely different one. :P

Well it's why the saying "Trust but verify " has so much weight.

Geez! Seems like a lot of artists are getting plagued by moochers lately. Fingers crossed this helps!

It should be this way for all accounts. To gain access payment must be up front.
Baron Engel
Yeah I just blocked about a dozen plus bogus accounts this morning. Hopefully this help reduce this burden.

It's a shame you had to do this. But, I am glad Patreon has added this feature for artists to combat this.
