Payment Changes! and Lilith WIP
🕑 Added 2020-08-01 18:03:35 +0000 UTCSo I've been working on an update for the Patreon that I'm not ready show off just yet so look forward to that!
This update though is because I've noticed recently that a few people have been making a pledge to get access and then deleting their pledge before the payment. I don't like to push my patreon on to people and constantly beg for support but I do rely on it as income and appreciate everyone who does support me so it bothers me that someone would cheap out on 2 dollars to see my work.
Because of that I'm changing the payment method so that if someone supports it will ask for payment upfront. I don't know if it will affect any of you who support currently and I do apologize if it does. I hope you understand.
Also here's a Lilith from Fire Emblem WIP so this isn't just a text update.

Oh yeah I've seen a few artists set it up so that the archive of previous works can't be viewed until the next month's payment is finalized, or something like that? Idk the specifics. It keeps people from doing that skeevy garbage. Maybe there's a patreon forum somewhere where a creator gives a more detailed explanation?

I'm not sure why, but if you change your page so that it charges patrons upfront you aren't able to charge per post so it doesn't default to that. Initially I had it set to the first of the month as a trust thing? Like to show people that I'm committed to updating and posting to earn the support but I didn't really think people would take advantage of that. Kind of naive it turns out.

shouldn't affect any current patrons. not sure why that's not the default setup for patreon, seems like a huge oversight to let people grab content without paying first
