Small Changes to My Patreon
Added 2021-03-29 12:12:14 +0000 UTCFirst of all, I'd like to thank everyone who has donated to my tip jar so far. Making custom content has become a much larger part of my life than I expected and it really means a lot to me that people are enjoying what I've made!
Second, it has come to my attention that the way Patreon has been charging my Patrons is different from what I stated on my tier description: rather than having an initial, up-front charge, it seems everyone was stuck waiting for the first of the following month to be charged.
I checked my account settings and learned that I never enabled the up-front charge because it is a permanent setting (and I think that intimidated me at the time). I'd like to enable the setting now so that new Patrons can feel free to make a one-time donation if they choose, without worrying about having to remember to cancel later.
Third, I'll be setting up a second tier for my tip jar! It will be exactly the same as my first tier, just for $2 instead. I don't want to lock things like polls or WIPs behind any tiers, because I want everyone to be able to participate and get excited with me about upcoming content. I will also never lock any of the custom content I make behind a Patreon tier.
TL;DR: The initial, up-front charge for new Patrons will now be enabled, and I am adding a $2 tier for anyone who'd like to support me a little more!
