Next month reward changes
Added 2017-04-13 01:04:32 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
So as you've obviously seen, we've been playing around with the types of rewards we've been trying to do for each tier for the past few months. It has been difficult, since we have not always been able to invest all of our time into cosplay, and as a result, we feel like we under-deliver at some points.
We tried last month to introduce the "fan service," stuff, but to be honest, it isn't really our style, and we didn't really enjoy it too much. It was a nice thing to try, but isn't something we'd like to continuously do. Aside from that, it put a lot of pressure on us to continuously put out a lot of content even though Grey works 10 hours a day, and I am trying to juggle 5 different things at once. Add the fact that we don't see each other as often as we'd like to begin with, it made things very difficult for us. Patreon is seriously no joke; it really does require a lot of time, and we are finding this out more and more.
So, what can we do to make it so that we can give you more meaningful things, CONSISTENTLY? We have been trying to come up with ideas that will take pressure off of us to produce content in a very limited amount of time, and also find things that will add personal value. We feel like we don't get to know you guys enough, and the same goes for the other way around. We decided to focus the shift on fan service pictures, to more personal things.
Here is what we were thinking of so far for next month. PLEASE, PLEASE let us know what you think, and if you have any suggestions for us. The new tier ideas are as follows:

2017-04-15 02:38:30 +0000 UTCI am honestly just happy that I get to be a part of someone else pursuing their dream. Not everyone is brave enough to even try but here you cinnamon rolls are giving it your all. So, all I have to contribute to this conversation is a supportive internet hug... *hug*
2017-04-14 07:44:01 +0000 UTCMatthias ; ; we are trying to make something special for that tier but it's so hard to think of what :(. If you have anything you would like from us let us know!!! :)!!! <3

2017-04-13 22:11:43 +0000 UTCWe might just put 15 instead of 20 to make it easier :)!

2017-04-13 22:10:57 +0000 UTCYou still have my support. For now and a long time in the near future. :) Just do things you enjoy and do with pleasure. Don't feel to do things you might think that we want to get this. This is your site you have to decide what you want to do and what not. And the changes sounds great and I will stay at my tier. :) And the importent thing is that you also take time for yourself and take care about you. It help us nothing if get sick or stressed you to much only to get content for us on this site.
2017-04-13 09:27:03 +0000 UTCGuys, seriously, TAKE A BREATH!! You don't have to put you between a rock and a hard place! I'm quite sure everybody here can understand about work, schedules, stress and everything else~ Also, PLEASE don't take the patreonage as a pressure or with a feeling of debt... I'm doing it not by other reason that I love to see what you do and kind of makes me feel better thinking I can help a at least a little to you to keep doing what we all enjoy.

2017-04-13 04:04:54 +0000 UTCI'm all for this new plan and like the others said I'm here to stay too. I hate it when you guys stress out or get uncomfortable over trying to please us though remember most of us support you cause we are fans not just cause we are hoping to get something in equal or better value. That said if it is time consuming and a bit stressful I said this as a joke a while ago but maybe you guys really should get an assistant/unpaid intern to help out.

2017-04-13 03:32:33 +0000 UTCWe sometimes feel we dont give enough to be honest. I think for the amount people support us we really wish we had more to offer :/. I think the best medium for us is to be more personal! We love talking to you guys! I think the live streams are my favourite thing to do haha. I hope these new changes will mean more to you guys as well ; ;

2017-04-13 03:04:34 +0000 UTC:D!! I'm glad you think its ok! :3. We don't want patreon to feel inauthentic to us and to you, so we are trying to think of better ways to be interactive~!

2017-04-13 03:04:18 +0000 UTCI’m glad you guys decided to stop the fan service stuff since you weren’t comfortable with it; we don’t want you guys to feel like you have to do something if you don’t want to do it. The new tiers look great! But don’t put too much pressure on yourselves to always have something new cooking up; snapchat is fun, the vlogs are fun, and the livestreams are fun, and you guys always have something to post about despite how busy you get so you’re doing a great job already!

2017-04-13 02:12:08 +0000 UTCI do like the new changes. It will give you guys a bit of breathing space and either way I'm here to stay and more than happy to be supporting you.
2017-04-13 02:07:07 +0000 UTCHey I'm just happy to help tbh, and you two stressing out isn't part of that so in my books change is a good thing! These new things sound absolutely lovely and I must say the i think it's the live videos that are most interesting to me aside from the snapchat and Mizu the water cat! :)
2017-04-13 02:03:08 +0000 UTCThat really does mean lot T___T Thank you so much for that <3
