Content Distribution Changes
🕑 Added 2018-03-06 10:34:00 +0000 UTC Beware, it's one of those boring management posts! D:In response to the recent leak of the latest animation I'm feeling like I'll have to make adjustments to the content distribution system in the future, likely starting with the next animation. Instead of putting the links directly into the posts, I'm now planning on sending out PM links to patrons that have been processed with the corresponding tier prior to release. Once the free version is out I'll add video links to the library, so all animations are still available for those that newly pledge here. There's always been a rather significant amount of patrons pledging and pulling back during animation releases, I frankly didn't bother too much about this, as the actual support has always been more than overwhelming, but seeing the content being redistributed and widely spread way before I can actually release it myself is forcing me to act.
I still take a fairly liberal stance on content distribution, means that everything else will remain the same. Animations will still get a free version release one month after the Patreon postings as usual!

Don't you usually distribute your videos for free after a certain period of time anyway? Really sucks some people still feel the need to leak instead of just letting things take their course :( You do what you have to do.

There was a leak? Wow, that's a bummer. :/ How you already had it taken down? Or is it still at large?

Sounds reasonable. Shame leakers don't link to your Patreon account and get you more business. :B

I kinda feel bad. I saw that video but didn't know it was a leak. Although it did prompt me to come join. Hope that i can be forgiven.

i dont think that will fully stop anyone from leaking the video sadly
Some people just don't understand

For people who do not pay ... we fell on it ... a flight to the con gache the pleasure of surprise! There is only one creator and it's you! I hope it does not discourage you from working! Ignore them and make the best of you what you already do!❤

You might be able to find a way to get the leakers. Like you must be a patron for X amount of weeks before you get the PM for the link of the next animation? And each tier gets a different quality. That way, the higher the quality, the higher the tier. You may be able to root them out like that? May not be worth the trouble. You do this though, at least you get more money from it

Don't really get these people... But I suppose they just do it for the 'views'.

Wow what nasty people to undercut you like that, I hope it doesn't dissuade you at all from your work :c

Sounds like it might be a little more complicated, but do what you must there.

This saddens me. Not because you are doing this, but because you have to do this. It is sad when artists take measures because they need to, not because they want to.

Ah well, there are always a few bad eggs in the bunch
