Rewards Sent + News
🕑 Added 2017-04-02 08:58:13 +0000 UTC To begin with, March Rewards are sent, please let me know if anything is amiss. Thanks again, all of you!Now, what I wanted to bring up was the subject of more pulled pledges. Once more, I will try to get in contact with those marked as fraudulent or declined, and see if the situation can be sorted out. Until then, the rewards are withheld, and you have a month to get the pledge processed. If it's not settled before the next cycle, I will have to block you from the page for a month. If I message you, please respond, so I know you're not a bot.
As for the pulled pledges, I'm aware that some may have pulled their pledges because they're not satisfied with the content or the speed it's delivered. That is perfectly fine, but the problem is it's hard to tell if that is their legit reason, or if they're just here to exploit the system to save a buck. What makes these pulled pledges very suspicious is if they are just a few days before the next charge cycle, and with no explanation. If you're going to actually pledge later, please put that in the reasons. Otherwise, I am going to have to make a list of the users that pledged and pulled, and block them if they do it again, and report them to creators they're subscribed to.
I'm not angry by this as much as I am disappointed, nor is this really hurting me now, but if my monitoring the pulled bids doesn't work, I'll have to make the pledges Up Front to put the kibosh on the actual fraudulent users.
Do give me your input, any help I can get to tackle this will help in the long run.

I will repeat again : no posting on furaffinity ecxept maybe one month later, payments up front and, most importantly, more NYS pages :D

Yeah, I think I may go this route, and maybe encourage newcomers to start with only $1 pledges, so if they're not satisfied or they are, it's not that big of a loss for them.

Got a point. The advantage to here though is that Ren gives copies of the high res files of his finished stuff as rewards here while FA only gets them in 1280 DPI

Also the more u keep posting ur content the very same day on furaffinity the least Patreons u will have, just saying.

I say, as Marm suggested. Pledges be upfront.

One step at a time! I'm still getting the hang of the pace. I have to start scheduling the release of content, set deadlines for myself. Honestly, I'm just freestyling on this, and I find myself tripping over my shoelaces when I realize how much time has gone by so quickly.

It sucks but that's how it starts at time in Patreon for anyone new. Hopefully when you have more content and have a steady pace to it, then you can measure the audience you will get.
