Important Announcement for Content Access
🕑 Added 2025-01-28 03:15:49 +0000 UTCHello everyone! It saddens me to have to make this announcement, but I suppose it is inevitably the fate of anyone on a paid subscription platform to go through this. To keep it brief, it has come to my attention that my page has been leaked from one of my patrons, meaning all my paid content was shared without my permission.
On one hand, it is flattering to know that there are people who wish so badly to see my work. On the other, it is disheartening, for reasons I hope you can understand. That said, I do not expect to ever completely stop leaking of my content, nor do I particularly judge those that partake in leaked content. I understand that not everyone has the financial means to pay for content, and I do think those people still deserve to enjoy nice things.
Of course, I greatly appreciate those who wish to support me, and to those who have faithfully done so I can't express my thanks enough! While I'm certainly not doing this for a living, it's already beyond my wildest expectations that I could ever use my love of making cute girls in Honey Select as a way to support myself, even if not full time. Every little bit counts, and I thank you for it!
With all that said, I want to take steps to mitigate the issue of leaked content going forwards. I know it is impossible to completely stop it from happening, but my goal is to make it more inconvenient to do so, such that those who wish to gain access would find it easier to do so through the appropriate channels. I feel that my full library of cards, consisting of years of work and progress, is worth the small fee I ask in exchange. As such, I am going to be removing all downloads from all my patron only posts. This means all my posts which contain patron only downloads will soon be deleted, and this will be an ongoing process. For releases going forwards, I will be moving everything to a MEGA folder which I will send through my patron only chat and update the link to once a month or so. I know this may potentially seem inconvenient at first, but hear me out as I explain the potential pros and cons.
Some of the benefits include:
Now all my cards will be in a single place, easier to download and manage
My patreon will be almost exclusively updates and previews, meaning few locked posts and an overall better viewing experience for non-patrons
Scraping leak sites will have a harder time stealing my content and redistributing it
Free content will still be linked directly to the post, meaning non-patrons will see very little change
Patrons no longer have to scroll down a long list of posts to find older cards
Here are what I see are the downsides:
It may be more inconvenient for patrons accustomed to my current release process
The current organization of the card folder is a bit messy, and you'll have to find cards you want by looking at the card image itself
Seeing as I don't stylize my cards very much, I guess it might look a little less interesting?
I've only included cards from since I started my new release process of premium cards and commissions. I figure most people by now are not terribly interested in my older cards, but if you are a patron and would like any card in particular which may be missing from the MEGA collection, please let me know and I can help provide it via DM here or on Discord
With those in mind, I don't believe this will be a significantly negative change, and it is effective immediately, including for the releases of the 6 girls I've been previewing the past few days. As I will be leaving on my trip soon, please let me know ASAP if there are any issues and I will try to resolve them before I leave.
To my patrons, the link has been shared in our patron only chat. Please check there first, and let me know if there are any issues. As an added bonus, there are some unreleased cards in there that I for one reason or another never released. So when you're looking over them, make sure to pay attention ;)
Thank you in advance for your understanding everyone! I really do appreciate those of you who support me and I promise to do my best to continue creating the cutest and sexiest girls for you all to enjoy!
