Where did my favorite audio go?
Added 2021-12-07 22:58:01 +0000 UTCHello.
Most of you are aware of the recent downtime as I resolved a discrepancy Patreon had with some of my content. I purged several audios because Patreon considered them in violation of their Community Guidelines. Because of this, some links on the catalog may no longer work, but I will be working on a solution so you can still find these audios via private access, respecting Patreon's guidelines with respect to the type of content they do and do not allow.
A list of audios removed:
Untapped
The Squire & The Mage
Show Me A Sign
LOVERBOY.EXECUTE
An Understanding
Why Are You Trying to Ruin My Life?
This Won't End Well
Hard Justice
Someone Like Me
On the Same Page
Some component of C/nc is overt in these titles, some more than others. I was generous with pruning (An Understanding, Hard Justice, and Someone Like Me, were the examples given in violation of Guidelines) to ensure we were back up and running again.
Of the above, Untapped has the potential to come back. Although none of it is non-consensual or violent in any way, the power dynamic there was in a grey area, so I erred on the side of caution. The breadth of storytelling for The Continuum, in general, has been moving beyond sexual dynamics as a priority, so unless there is some compelling reason to portray rape or egregious/sadistic violence, I will not be exploring those scenarios in the foreseeable future.
Leave a comment if you have any questions. I'll try to get to you as soon as I can.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience.

They'll be available again soon, just need to solidify a platform!

2022-01-03 03:19:28 +0000 UTCYes. I missed a few that got pruned when I listed the audios out, but hopefully, it won't matter soon when I figure out a way for everyone to listen 🤞🏻

2021-12-08 23:42:05 +0000 UTCIm also not able to find exposed & compromised, is that also because of the guidelines?

2021-12-08 20:40:31 +0000 UTCI agree. I thought about Google Drive and simply hosting them on my website, which is more than equipped with CMS to stream the files. Discord is not a welcomed solution to everyone for any given thing. As for the unfairness of what happened, I have a suspicion that outside forces may have reported my content which caused the inquiry leading to the suspension and forced pruning. But that is just conjecture, just a hunch and in no way rooted in anything I can substantiate. For now, all we can do is move forward after these events. There are solutions, and it's just a matter of time and patience for the best one to make itself seen. Thank you for your input!

2021-12-08 06:01:34 +0000 UTCThe only problem with the Discord idea is for those of us who don’t use Discord aside from for work/ individual conversations. I for one have severe social anxiety, to the point even having Patreon repeatedly reconnect me to servers (I have it connected for one server which, ironically, is for anxiety coping methods) as it does every so often can trigger a panic attack, so perhaps an alternative might be a good idea if possible, such as Google Drive storage (as one creator I follow has). Also, just a side note, this is crazy unfair, because I know of multiple creators with explicitly NC content who have no issues with posting such content, ie takedowns or takedown requests. One was so explicitly NC in almost every file, I had to cancel my pledge (I had pledged after hearing some nice content, not realizing how dark it could get) because it triggered PTSD for me, and yours have never done that to me.

2021-12-08 00:59:57 +0000 UTCProbably a good idea to be overly cautious for now. I'm sure you'll figure it out moving forward. <3 (pours one out for 'An Invitation')

2021-12-07 23:59:36 +0000 UTCLike the others already said, I think a channel in the discord should work :)

2021-12-07 23:05:08 +0000 UTCit does, thank you!
Tombanter
2021-12-07 23:04:59 +0000 UTCthere are a few creators I know that make Discord channels to post things that Patreon doesn't allow, if that helps :)

2021-12-07 23:04:18 +0000 UTCThat's not a bad idea. We already have a Discord server, so creating a channel to house "dark stuff" and restricting to Patrons only should not be difficult to accomplish.
Tombanter
2021-12-07 23:02:49 +0000 UTCtake your time ✊🏻

2021-12-07 23:02:04 +0000 UTCA few content creators opened a server on Discord to put their "darker stuff".
