My decision.
Added 2019-02-26 15:24:19 +0000 UTCSo, i have thought on this for a while now, and your feedback to my last post has been really helpful.
I'll cut to the chase, Patreon will stay for now.
It seems that most of you are happy to continue supporting me on this platform and so I'm happy to stay put for now.
But what about the dodgy double standards and stuff?
well, I think Araik76 put it best, i'll post his comments here:
Araik76 said: "I dislike their practices, but there are a ton of others who do the same thing or worse... Do you buy products made in China, a country with no regard for it's people? Do you buy gas from companies that get the oil from the middle east, who we all know ends up supporting terrorists in some way? Do you buy foods that don't say non-GMO, who have cost so many farmers their lands and/or lives. Do you use Facebook, or Twitter, or so many others that follow the same crappy practices?.. In the end, it comes to where you want to make a stand. If you choose to do it here, by stopping to use Patreon, then I will support you through other methods. If you choose to continue, then I will continue to support you through them. Ultimately, it is your choice... Sorry for the long winded response, but I hope you get the point. It is an imperfect world we live in, and we are all forced to make crappy choices. We make our stands where we can, and I will support you either way"
For now Patreon is helping me grow the channel and improve the content I can bring you. And at the end of the day thats the most important thing for me right now.
Patreon, Paypal, Mastercard and several others were all embroiled in this censorship thing so it would seem that finding another platform would be pretty difficult anyway.
Thank you again to you all for supporting me on Patreon and/or twitch, it means so much. I'll have another small token of my thanks sorted for you soon so stay tuned.
Cheers
Spanj.
