Would you like more awesome Milestone Goals?

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Alex_Patreon_Milestone_GoalsHowdy! So, y'all have been kicking butt in blasting through these Milestone Goals. In less than three weeks, you've already triggered three of them: penciled pages for Patrons, SFW Kickstarter rewards for Patrons, and Officially Turning The Young Protectors in a Twice-Weekly Comic. You ROCK! The next milestone goal (at $3500/month) is for me to remove the ad banner underneath the comic page on my site. (And at $4000/month, I start sending out the NSFW Full Monty Kickstarter Rewards.) But I've gotten some feedback that maybe people don't really care about having the ads on my site removed. The whole point of the Milestone Goals is to offer truly appealing rewards to my Patrons for hitting these "milestones" (meaning when the campaign raises certain amounts of money per month.) So I'd like to ask you: Is the removal of an ad banner from my site an appealing Milestone Goal reward for you? And I've created this survey for y'all to answer just that question: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Alex_Patreon_Milestone_Goals There are only 3 questions in this survey, so it'll take you less than a minute to answer it, but you'd really be helping me out if you did. I have some good ideas for other Milestone Goals that I could replace the "remove the ads" goals with, but I don't want to change any Milestone Goals if y'all really want those ads gone. Also, if YOU have ideas for really appealing Milestone Goals, please let me know in the comments. My artists are currently at their limits with both finishing the Kickstarter rewards and creating the regular production comic pages (so I can't change the comic to 3x week or offer bonus comics right now), but if there's something that I (Alex Woolfson) could offer you, or a change I could make to the Web site that would be an appealing Milestone Goal, please let me know in the comments. Thank you so much for helping me with this and for your awesome support! (And I'll have you Sneak Preview Sunday update sent off to you soon! :) )

Thank you for the feedback, Jules! :)

Okay, obviously I'm not unbiased in this, because I regularly bid for ad space, and it isn't *solely* about how much it entertains me to support the comic in a way I can write off as a business expense. (Even if the only thing stopping me from winding everyone up one Saturday morning by taking All The Ad Slots is the lack of a skyscraper format ad.:-) But the only real issue I have as a reader with the ads is the things that blink or otherwise move, and some of the... er... more uninhibited... ads, which do cross my comfort level for what I want to be looking at when my parents are staying at my house. I say this as someone who normally remembers to ask my publisher to keep the covers on my erotic romance books at a level that someone could read on the bus, even if what's inside the covers is full frontal and then some.
