Feedback! About the posts.

I'll still be careful and try to upload a couple hours before the post if that makes a difference.

It might be more on the site's end than yours. It isn't a consistent problem. I want to say it only happens about 50% of the time? And I always find the picture when I check back the next day. Not a terrible occurrence by any means and I don't really mind it, just a mild annoyance.

Alright then! Things procede as normal.

Happy to hear it!

Its Gucci man I dont really care much

Is all good

Aye, that's definitely a better choice! Scrapers might be able to grab post content, and even individual comments on a post, but it stops outside interference when only subscribed members can actually interact in the comment section. Ideally Fanbox would implement their own poll system to make things easier for artists and users. Also no worries man, I'm glad to share my feedback, and excited to see what new art's comin' down the pipe~

That's very strange. I always upload to the archive before posting anywhere, sometimes hours before I make the post on Fanbox. At least I thought that once you guys have the link, you can click on it for the whole month and see all the files, even without me sending the link again on Sunday. Has anyone else had this issue? If so I might have to change things again and start sending out links immediately after posting.

Sounds good. I'll try arranging them soon to be sorted in months. I was considering sorting them by season but last year I've made way more content than ever before, so month seems like the best course of action. I might leave it at months, since whenever I've seen other people's archives, I get a little tired of going through so many folders, personally and feel some people might feel the same way, but for sure will organize my archives more from here on out. Thanks for the feedback and advice!

MrScrambled

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. I'm glad my strategy isn't a big inconvenience. And for sure polls are very different now. Instead of using straw poll, I use the comment section and let users give a like to the comment with the character they want. Seems much more secure. Speaking of, gonna be making a poll real soon too.

MrScrambled

I don't mind the way things are now at all, but my only issue is that when I open a cropped post and hit up my inbox to go into your archive that new post is rarely there. I almost always have to come back the next day. So maybe a bit more prioritization of uploading the pic to the archive before making a post of it here, to ensure it's fully uploaded and available?

I think it's a good solution. My only suggestion is the pictures in the archive should be ordered by month and day as well, so we don't have to look through the entire year to find the new stuff, just scroll to the bottom. This is just a minor gripe as there's not much to sort through. You're doing a great job in any case!

AH! Really sorry about the trap n futa surprises. I usually add tags but I'll make sure to give you a proper warning next time, by making it more clear on what to expect. Thank you so much for letting me know about this and for sharing your thoughts.

MrScrambled

I don't mind at all when people post my art on other sites like Rule 34, because all those are older posts and were made public at Pixiv. I even get a kick out of seeing comments over there some times, especially the cringy complainers haha. That's fine, the leakers I'm talking about are very different since they have a specific site and just mass rip. And it's a huge up hill battle to do anything because it's their own site, and I honestly don't have an interest in fighting people. Anyways, thank you so much for the feedback. I really appreciate hearing your thoughts on the matter.

MrScrambled

To be entirely honest, I think the solution you've arrived at is a good compromise to get around the leaking/scraping issue! While it surely must be more work for you, a slight inconvenience to new members, and still not entirely foolproof against bots, I do believe this is the most effective way to stop the automated and immediate leaking of timed release content, and probably will continue to be for the foreseeable future. Its actually a strategy I've seen many other artists I support resort to as well, so I'd say its a good choice as long as its not too annoying for you to manage. As far as my personal opinion goes, I don't particularly mind waiting a day or two for the link to the archive as long as it helps keep your Fanbox operating! You may want to be careful about the polls again in the future though, especially polls hosted off site, since the poll post can be scraped and anyone can access the link and vote in the poll (which I believe is likely what happened in the past).

GASP

XD Well that's certainly a relief to hear.

MrScrambled

Yo hummm idk what feedback you want or if you're gonna take my comment seriously or if this is gonna be in anyway usefull but rn I think you got a really affordable subscription fee and sticking to 1 post a week is honestly awesome. I feel like the ≈3 cad fee is perfect because as a consummer I can just forget about it and still get a post everweek instead of trying to wait a couple weeks then subbing for the achive update. And about the cropping part that's cool but I just don't want to get baited and when I open the full image the character ends up with a fat cock. Nothing agaisnt people that like gay stuff but for me I don't like the guessing game of fat cock or no fat cock Ps. Yes you could know in title if the pic has a fat cock or not but tbh when my pants are down I become illiterate, but hey that's just me.

I don't think the way you've been doing it is bad. I think everyone understands why you're doing it the way you do. Leakers suck, and take away from your income. It's only fair you protect your money flow. People who pledge still get to see your posts and archive. And I think I'm most cases the people who pledge are doing so to support you not just to see the new stuff early. Also in case you didnt know you can go to some of the sites and request your art to be taken off. Like rule34 paheal. You may even be able to request that only you are allowed to post them.

I don't even know, I've been going to the archive every time a new pic gets posted though.
