Patreon update + Info for Future
🕑 Added 2019-05-08 00:14:57 +0000 UTCHey all! I got some important news regarding future updates here for next month and beyond
So, from reviewing the patreon survey form, the majority of replies has given me help to determine what I'm changing for here for June and forward.
The big changes I'll discuss first, which are the following:
- - $1 Early Access will be moved to $3 from now on. The big reason for this one is I felt the charge from Patreon + fees from Paypal left this as lower income on my end that, I felt needed to be more personally justified since Patreon is what essentially helps me a ton each month. You will still be able to get discord access tho and I'll see about making sketches at least viewable by $1 patrons.
- - Voting at $3 & Suggestions at $5 will remain the same.
- - Monthly Poll suggestions are now being reduced to 1, since as noticed by a majority, alot of patrons only had 1 suggestion most of the time, making multiple not as viable.
- - Voting will be changed to 1 vote per patron instead of unlimited voting, since a majority felt this was more fair. I worry this might encourage patrons to only vote for their suggestions each time, but we will see how this pans out.
- Commission prices are being raised in general starting next month. This is one I felt bad at first to reverse since I did lower at the beginning of the year, but I feel with me relying on comms and patreon mainly for income I really need to step up to adjust for more fair compensation as noted by fellow patrons and friends. Hopefully this one pans out well.
- There might be introduction of monthly themes for the monthly poll on some months with major holidays, will see how this pans out later on.
With these being the major changes described, I hope it's understandable what's being changed. I apologize in advance if some of these changes make you wanna drop your pledge, but I completely understand if so. I'm just trying to make a general improvement moving forward more so for my own well being and income, and I'm glad the majority have responded really positively. Thank you all again for your continued support, have a good day!
