Update regarding Tiers
🕑 Added 2020-06-30 23:43:33 +0000 UTCHey y'all!
We're just about to cross into July, which means your pledges should be on their way to being charged soon. We've been delaying updating the current tiers since we're going through a lot of internal and community-related changes and they would inevitably influence the kinds of rewards we're able to give you. However, July 1st also means the Patreon-wide implementation of new sales tax, so we've gone ahead and updated the ones which everyone's pledging to at the moment.
We're detailing all the changes we can disclose below. (This post is using the old Tier names to avoid confusion.)
- The lower Tiers (Potato Pie [$2], Feyn [$5] and Hewan [$10]) have been hit the hardest, with all reworked rewards which will be applied as soon as external infrastructure is ready to be implemented (public Discord server [we'll talk more about this when everything's ready to go!] and website). Hewan [$10] is now the most loaded lower Tier in terms of rewards, so if you're part of it, stay tuned!
- Two tiers have been removed (Ava [$15] and Artifact Apprentive [$35]) since their pledge amounts are now considered redundant, and their rewards will be distributed to the Tiers next to them. If you're part of these tiers, you'll still be able to keep your pledge active, but please consider checking out the other Tiers in case anything interests you when they're all ready!
- Tier names will also be updated to keep consistency, so don't feel alarmed if your Tier name changes - you'll still be pledging the same amount as before.
- All the text in the current Tiers will be updated according to the changes in rewards - they're fancy fluff, so that wasn't our priority.
- Higher tiers weren't able to be updated just yet due to Patreon's creator-end saving issues - nobody's currently pledging to those tiers so it's not a huge issue, but that will hopefully be resolved in the next day at the soonest (we're guessing everyone's also updating their tiers today?). If you see missing text there, it's simply due to glitches in the system.
________________________________
There will be additional news regarding other changes to Patreon rewards and how the community will be advancing forward as soon as everything is ready to be shared. For now, expect an update post to come when all the Tiers are properly set, so you can check what changes were made and hopefully find something you find appealing!
If you think you were negatively affected by these changes, especially due to sales tax, please let us know! Patreon can make it pretty hard to find some of the inner-works information about how the system works right now, so we're totally fine with working this out directly with you.
Thank you all for pledging this month!
