Loss of patreons
Added 2020-08-22 15:57:02 +0000 UTChello! ^^
its become apparent to me that quite a few individuals have decided to leave (which is perfectly fine) after I said I would only be uploading every other week. People are free to make their own choices, I wont worry or be concerned about that HOWEVER, for those who are deciding to stay or on the fence, what is it that I can do to fill the gap for you?
I still need to keep to what I said, however it does feel kind of weird not uploading something each week, would you like me to do small sketch polls? raffles? if im allowed to do those without getting in trouble or maybe even start doing patreon only streams?
let me know, give me some suggestions, I want to keep interacting with you guys and making you feel like staying with me is worth it. just let me know :)

I actually stepped away because of surprise financial issues. I'm likely gonna re-pledge in a month or so, myself.

2020-08-24 17:02:12 +0000 UTCI came here for GG. ^^' This comic (and the opportunity to get earlier updates) gave me the final push to create a Patreon account and initially I started to support 7 artists because of you, which I also liked (Now I support 6 artists). I may not be a supporter with a high amount of money giving to you. But I like your art and as long as I get paid enough from my employer (of course) and I like your art, I will support you with my (little) pledge. ^^ It's really(!!) no problem if you upload less. But at least one to two times a month uploading anything (even a text update) would be cool, but not necessary; since anyone (including me) is pledging per motnh. ^^'''

2020-08-23 00:06:38 +0000 UTCAll I ask is that you keep making comics. Stories are what brought me here. If your uploading less often, then shorter stories may work better.

2020-08-22 21:59:09 +0000 UTCIt's also possible that some have left since the big unbirth part of the forbidden want is done. Since I'm certainly not about to leave it's not people like me that we have to worry about but more those who actually don't comment in general. All the lurkers that are here to get all that nice art. We want to convert them into true followers and I think post like this can help since it help shows the person behind the art. What can also help I think is more poles maybe to alow people that are to shy to talk to feel engaged. I think that it's best when doing this to keep it to a maximum of 3 choice to increase the chance that the person will feel like he had an impact. I think that the more choice is given, the less likely each single person are to be in the 'winning' team and so to feel like he didn't really contributed or something.

2020-08-22 18:07:02 +0000 UTCI feel like those of us that stayed all have the same consensus that we all support you for you and your talents. Also, it seems unanimous that we all know that shiz happens and are happy to stand by you in your trials and tribulations. Artistic talent is something you work at and requires discipline (I, myself, cannot do the arts). Though if you would like a suggestion, maybe at least post pictures that 'you' like. Im personally interested in what your tastes are. ^_^

2020-08-22 17:19:51 +0000 UTCI'm staying because your art is amazing no matter what, but the main reason I'm staying is because no matter what others think, life comes first and if they aren't patient for it then they are out of luck.

2020-08-22 16:17:54 +0000 UTCVoregence. You have to take care of you first, I'm sure most of us agree on that. To the ones who left. Let them leave. You need to focus on getting yourself right before stressing over letting those who dont understand that others have lives and sometimes things dont happen on time or schedules need to change sometimes to better benefit the artist.

2020-08-22 16:12:54 +0000 UTCI did consider that, but I think I would feel bad switching to that after doing it monthly for so long. I dont want to make anyone upset to make anyone think I'm trying to be grubby with funds

2020-08-22 16:02:48 +0000 UTCHave you ever done, or at least considered steaming yourself when working on your art or comics? It would be cool to see the creative process behind the comics and commissions.
