🕑 Added 2025-05-26 23:09:58 +0000 UTCFirst of all:
Thank you very much for each of your recent support and all the support over the last years! I'm sure you have read the last important announcement and I have refunded you according to it. I have yet to reach anyone at Patreon Support, but since nothing was resolved and all replies are automated and still without any indication what caused it, we had to wipe everything. All the memories and comments with you, all the good times, all the hard work I've put in.
I'm sure you're equally as frustrated but like I said: We won't give up! We will not give up to make Elena & Co come alive and send her smile across the globe in collaboration with others!
Even if it will have to be a bit different going forward. At least if I can make some of you smile it'll be worth it.
So I made new rewards and the Patreon is now fully restructured with a new way of running it, to hopefully remove the flag indefinitely.
If you're not interested in this new journey going forward, no problem, I can't blame any of you. I'm pretty moody about it myself and wish I had another option, but there is none that wouldn't hinder or jeopardize this ambitious dream in the long run. And I'm very thankful to be able to run this campaign with such a supportive and kind community!
If you choose to stay or not, if you forget about it or not, it doesn't matter. All thats important that you feel good about your decision and not feel pressured to spend anything you dont want.
But if you want to see and help me grow further and go forward: Consider supporting the project through the new reward tiers. I will make sure it'll be used well to create a great future!
Now I will have to go and create more, follow us, watch us and of course... have fun!
Any Ideas and input are always welcome too, so...
See you again soon! :)

Yes the old tiers are there so people can easily switch without hassle and don't just get thrown out. The new tiers should be visible, they also have new icons. The only tier has retained its name are the based fans but its rewards have changed accordingly.

It's very sad that it had to go this way, and it's extra stupid that Patreon won't get back to you about it. I've had to contact them as a supporter in the past, and while they were always frustratingly slow, I've never had to wait this long for a human response. It's sad that this platform has made so many bad decisions in the past few years... I am also sad that all the old content and memories and comments are gone, I always love scrolling back through older posts every now and then, but it is what it is. I'm excited to see what you guys come up with in the future! As for the new tiers, Patreon is still showing me a Personal Stylist tier that mentions photosets. Is that still the old tier that we shouldn't sub to anymore, or is it also part of the new tiers? Just wanted to check before I sub :)
