REMINDER: Set a monthly max for pledges!
🕑 Added 2017-07-31 16:55:31 +0000 UTC I've been losing a lot of patrons and that may be because they don't know they can set monthly contribution caps. If this sounds like you, follow the instructions on this help page and you can limit the number of times per month that you contribute.

Good thing I mentioned it then. I've tried to be clear about it in the description, etc. but I've added it to the thank you message now as well, so hopefully others can do the same.

Sounds like a browser issue. I would try another. Could be your fonts are set to large.

I didn't know i could cap it! I'm happy to support the work (yay, you!) but I'm also on a limited budget. Thanks for the info!

I have no idea. Maybe Patreon is having a buggy moment - or possibly you could try another web browser?

I set my monthly max from the start, but I'd honestly rather see it just do a monthly because its lazier on my side (I'm lazy, what can I say). And it also tends to get past people who overlook the monthly max thing or get confused by it.

I tried putting a check on set monthly max, the box comes up but it looks like there's the last 1/3rd of a 9 in the box and nothing will text in it. Any help?
FurBall
Make sure you check the box in front of Optional: set month max

I can't edit a limit on the number of times I can contribute.The box doesn't work.

Yea the per video thing can be a big issue since some creators do it that way and some are per month. If your new to using the service you can easily misinterpret the setting and end up paying alot more then you expected.
Still worth pointing it out i guess in case even a few people have left for that reason. Also $2 per video over a month combined with other donations to other youtubers can add up to be a fair bit for some people so i guess if they didnt realise then saw they owed more than they thought they may leave rather than honor the pledge. Just a thought.

It's 10s and 15s leaving.

not sure if that was really the issue, 2$ shouldn't be a lot of money for someone who decides to support youtubers in the first place ...
