More on Patreon Thieves
Added 2021-02-26 12:44:20 +0000 UTCEdit: Thank you so much for your support today, I’m in such a better place mentally now than I was this morning with this whole mess. I am seriously considering raising nsfw prices, I will let everyone know by the end of the month. I still want it to be affordable though! Please keep an eye out for anyone who is posting from my patreon. I love you guys 💕
If you know of anyone posting my art on separate sites please DM. They need to be removed from this page immediately.
It’s seriously unsafe for me to have my nsfw on other platforms. My nsfw is two dollars, that not a lot, but if I have to raise prices to keep myself safe I will.
Honestly this whole thing just makes me want to stop posting nsfw in general.

I was meant to join that tier but seems like I won't be able to now;(. Rip. I'm sorry they're sharing patreon content, it's always the worse, because it means stealing serious cash from you. If you want to raise price to make sure it'll to keep people away from reposting it you should go for 50usd or more for the tier. It doesn't matter how much you raise in the meaning of trying to keep it affordable bc raising always means a good shade of people will lose the chance to the tier anyway, but others still will be able to pay much more, so to make sure you surely lose everybody who might only follow you fo the purpose to repost your work you need to raise a lot. Because it's a 100% that a few dollars difference won't make a difference for reposters. Good luck, I hope you'll reach your goal and safety !! Edit: btw beside the raise you should use a 'patreon exclusive/only' watermark on patreon arts. Make it super clear to everybody AT FIRST SIGHT it's a stolen art.

2021-02-28 01:15:57 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry this is happening to you and so many others, it seems :( You do whatever you feel is best; this is your livelihood and you should be able to price it as such. I know so many of us, myself included, won't be going anywhere. You are wonderfully talented and deserve the world! <3
Jewels
2021-02-27 21:00:23 +0000 UTCThis is a disgusting attitude to have. Imagine not caring about someone possibly losing their job because you feel entitled to stealing art and sharing it?? What kind of mental hoops do they have to jump through to think this is okay?? Suppose I already know that answer sadly, they only care about their own enjoyment, who cares who suffers as a result? Do whatever you need to do to keep yourself safe, Whiteley. I’m sorry this keeps happening (if I remember correctly you’ve posted before about people doing this). It’s just beyond unfair to you.
Katie Davidson
2021-02-27 18:27:42 +0000 UTCThank you so much Bridie! I’ll look into doing all of these!
Whiteley Foster
2021-02-27 11:49:08 +0000 UTCOK asked my friend for some advice (she studied a level law so knows a few basic things that could help) and she has said 1. Just have a quick glance through patrons terms and conditions to see if they have anything there that's supposed to protect your art 2. Mabey send an email directly to patron about the issue, I've noticed when you click to enlarge an image you can click the 3 dot drop down bar and that has an option to save image, ask them if there is any way they can remove it (it won't protect against people who take screen shots but it's a start) 3.water mark everything 4. Mabey save all the post where you have warned people against doing this so if any other pages or sites try to blame you, you have proof you haven't consented to you art being shared Hope this helps a bit and hope the idiots who do it get there comeuppance 😬
Bridie Lane
2021-02-27 09:17:29 +0000 UTCThose people are the worst! It's not their decicion where your art can be shared and it doesn't matter how many people steal and share it elsewhere. Even one person can do a lot of damage. I can't understand how someone can be so selfish and unresponsible and rude. I would gladly pay more if it helps you to keep your work where it belongs. I'm glad though that you feel better now and whatever you decide to do, I'm sure we'll support you.
NorNor
2021-02-27 08:00:08 +0000 UTC😱 OMG who the hell does this person think they are?!!!! 🤬😤 arguing with the artist who created the stolen work- they are just as bad as the scum who posted stolen art in the first place!! Scum by association! 😠
Jessica
2021-02-27 07:09:06 +0000 UTCOnly one person steals and shares it, so that makes it okay? I can't even with these people and their logic. I'm willing to pay more if it keeps these idiots off artists' Patreons.
Res Judicata
2021-02-27 05:33:19 +0000 UTCMy dear, I am glad you feel better! And yes go ahead and raise your tier prices if it helps. I would hate to lose your NSFW work, I adore it but I understand and respect that you have to take care of yourself. I still vote for a pseudonym though. Deniability. 🙃 whatever you decide though I love your work and it makes me very happy, SFW or not. ❤️
Ariana Lipman
2021-02-27 04:09:43 +0000 UTCIf I could physically reach these douchewads I'd already be wearing my fuck-shit-up jacket ... but if raising your prices for nsfw works, do it, I'm totally in. And if you feel that you have to stop, well, there will be a great outcry in the force, but, safety first. D:
Eileen Smithers
2021-02-27 03:42:26 +0000 UTCHoly FUCK. I'm also echoing the major sentiment here - this is HORRIFIC. Not just what they're doing, which is terrifying (the fear of IRL smut revelation is awful), but their attitude about it - like you should be grateful that someone is stealing and sharing your work without your consent and without regard for your safety. I'd be so sad to lose your art but I (like so many others here) would be even sadder for you to lose your livelihood and your dream job over this. I'd join in those who would continue to support you if you raised prices, or if you shut down your NSFW work, or whatever you need to do to stay safe.
Terri J
2021-02-27 03:34:26 +0000 UTCI know I'm just echoing the major sentiment here, but Whiteley, those of us who support your art are willing to support what YOU need to do. Its sickening that there are people willing to steal and lie and cheat and don't care that their actions are ruining it for everyone else. I hope karma comes back to bite them.

2021-02-27 02:11:05 +0000 UTCUnbelievable. What is wrong with people????

2021-02-27 02:10:19 +0000 UTCThis is disgusting. I would like to tell this person off myself too. I already reported the page reposting stuff
Aikosakura
2021-02-27 01:58:32 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry Whiteley. This is BEYOND and I can’t believe people are trying to actually justify it. I’ll keep my eye out. ♥️♥️♥️ you do what you need to do to be safe.
pyracantha
2021-02-27 01:45:37 +0000 UTCThis is why we can’t have nice things! I can’t believe these people. “Why pay $2 to see something when I can wait until someone STEALS it and see it for FREE?” Hmmm maybe because someone’s livelihood is on the line?? Maybe you’ve heard of a little thing called morals?? I’m sorry, I just get so angry about this. I’ll support you in whatever you decide to do; I know if I were in your shoes and it were MY livelihood in jeopardy I’d go straight to the nuclear option and shut it all down, so I can’t judge.
Beck
2021-02-27 01:41:45 +0000 UTCThis is horrible. Also happy to pay more to stop thieves and support you. Win-win. Bottom line, do what you need to do to stay safe.
Renee Slembarski
2021-02-27 01:33:23 +0000 UTCWe love toooooo 💝💝💝💝 this guy is an absolute piece of shit! I'm really absolutely speechless about such audacity ... Such a pack doesn't even deserve to see your beautiful art
Sarah Marino
2021-02-27 01:33:15 +0000 UTCI'll totally respect any decision you made and don't blame you at all for it raising the prices because you need to protect yourself. I hope, if you do raise it, I'll be able to continue to pay but money is tight.
Allyson Becker
2021-02-27 01:29:47 +0000 UTCI’d be happy to pay more if it stops the thieves 😡
Ann Gourd
2021-02-27 01:26:16 +0000 UTCI hope this gets resolved and I wouldn't blame you if you raised prices/stopped/whatever makes you most comfortable, why do people ruin good things?
strawhat4life
2021-02-27 01:24:06 +0000 UTCThis is so disgusting. The “that’s why I like it” part is appalling. They get off on the theft. Ugh, so gross
Breeyn Rogelstad
2021-02-27 01:23:56 +0000 UTCThat person's reply is absolutely terrible. That behavior is completely inappropriate and so immature. Do whatever you need to stay safe
Warps_Cosplays
2021-02-27 01:23:27 +0000 UTCI think you should raise prices anyhow. You deserve it. I hope it gets resolved soon regardless.
Bridgeotto
2021-02-27 01:09:41 +0000 UTCWhiteley, you do whatever you need to in order to keep yourself safe. Raise the tier to a higher price or stop posting nsfw altogether. Your livelihood is a much higher priority.

Wren Truesong
2021-02-26 22:12:45 +0000 UTCUrgh, they're so ungrateful, rude and entitled. I wish there was some form of blacklist so artists know who these gits are and can block before risking the exposure :(
Cj
2021-02-26 22:08:23 +0000 UTCThis is horrible. You have a right to protect yourself and your work! Stealing is stealing. Stay strong!
Kat Holtz
2021-02-26 21:09:21 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry this is happening. Also, they’d be crying instead of laughing if they were on your end of this situation. So many people have no empathy.

2021-02-26 20:26:16 +0000 UTCThis is so fucked up. This person sounds like they think they are being Robin Hood but they're just being an asshole. I'm so sorry this is happening to you. :( Please know that those of us here who actually want to support you have your back and will protect you the best we can. Your art is amazing and you are an incredible person! ❤❤❤
zephyrvs
2021-02-26 20:19:24 +0000 UTCWow...Whiteley, I am so sorry. The fact that they told you be thankful?? 😤 If I could jump through this fucking phone screen, I would. These people clearly don’t understand the seriousness of this and the fact that it jeopardizes artist’s livelihoods. 😪
litlgreenleaf
2021-02-26 20:15:32 +0000 UTCThis is why I’m so cautious to post art of mine, even if it isn’t nsfw art. I’ve had people try to steal my shit before. I need to really come up with a watermark before I post anything else of my art. But take those thief’s down! They have no right to steal!

Planetary System
2021-02-26 18:30:04 +0000 UTCArt thieves of any sort are the worst, and the fact they can't seem to understand WHY it is bad just...irks me. I used to be like that until artist friends educated me, and I started paying for commissions. Now I understand. After all, I wouldn't want some rando to use my $70 commission as their phone background, or as their RP character, or w/e. So of course artists don't want randos stealing their work. Sorry you have to deal with this :(
Vagabond
2021-02-26 18:04:42 +0000 UTCI agree with everything posted above by like minded Patreons. You are a wonderful, genuine person and it's so offensive that asshats put you and your livelihood at risk. I cannot fathom the sheer audacity of art thieves, which is what they are. In this case, Patreon is the gallery being robbed. That makes me so very fucking angry. 😡😤😠🤬
Stacey Hopwood
2021-02-26 17:51:21 +0000 UTCDo you want us to keep an eye out on Pinterest as well?
Mama Move
2021-02-26 17:14:25 +0000 UTCGeez these people suck and so do the platforms that don’t do shit about stolen art. I reported that account like three times just for IG to green light them each time (it looks like they finally got suspended or their posts removed though, about time) You do what you need to do for your safety and stability. We’ll keep kicking art thieves when they pop up. 👍🏼
Glissando365
2021-02-26 16:12:46 +0000 UTCWhat the actual hell??? The logic of this person is insane. They don't care at all about the sheer amount of work you all put into creating this amazing art... They're fine as long as it's equal opportunity theft and they only are loyal to the original thief??? What the actual f*ck???
Aurelia

2021-02-26 15:37:57 +0000 UTCWhat the actual fuck??? What the hell is wrong with these assholes? I’m so pissed for you and all other GO artists to whom it’s happening... Your safety and livelihood are the most important thing to focus on. If you stop doing NSFW we’ll understand, same if you decide to raise prices. We’re with you. 💛
Shadow Kana
2021-02-26 15:33:51 +0000 UTCJesus this is terrible! I just can’t understand what would drive a person to do this. I know I’m privileged, I really do. But I also know I spent way more than $2 per month on things to lift my spirits when I was broke back in the day. I’ve not been on discord in ages, so I’ve not seen anything, but the spaces I spent my time in were strict about basically just sharing a link to a tweet or post. Charge what you need to charge and do what you need to do. I’ll absolutely report and let you know if I see things.
Hannah
2021-02-26 15:21:13 +0000 UTCWhen they know it's stealing but still consider it okay? I just don't get that.
Debbie Champion
2021-02-26 15:16:50 +0000 UTCI am so sorry that you are going through this :( That person trying to defend stealing and reposting art is just uuuugh.
selph-styled
2021-02-26 15:10:14 +0000 UTCReally sorry that a-holes like this have to make you afraid to share your beautiful art with people who love it. If you have to protect yourself against this kind of garbage, could you do it with a pseudonymous account, as someone suggested? I'd willingly pay for another account to see your nsfw art also, if that's what it takes.
Tina Rhea
2021-02-26 15:06:14 +0000 UTCThis shit makes me literally wanna vomit. The audacity of these people to do something like this is just ughhhh. I swear only shadey heartless assholes do things like this
Kyle Rose
2021-02-26 15:04:37 +0000 UTCThat's scary, that people would post it elsewhere.
Atelerix
2021-02-26 15:00:26 +0000 UTCSo sorry you're experiencing this disgraceful treatment. I don't mind paying more personally, although I do wonder how effective a price rise would be... possibly it would also increase the sense of entitlement to the content?
Jenny R
2021-02-26 14:56:23 +0000 UTCI will never understand this sense of entitlement some people have over reposting other people's art. I hate that this keeps happening. <3
Cyn (amadness2method)
2021-02-26 14:52:21 +0000 UTCI'd be happy to pay more for the NSFW tier if it means I still get to see your art. You have such a high output rate, of such high quality work, it'd be well worth paying a bit extra each month to give you some peace of mind.
Bec Smith
2021-02-26 14:42:19 +0000 UTCWhat an absolute shit. The sheer gall to try to defend it to your face is just... 🤬🔥 I’ve never seen your art anywhere else and I’m in a lot of groups and things, but if I do I’ll be all over that to smack em down
Ineffable Penguin
2021-02-26 14:40:16 +0000 UTCThe problem with making it hard copy only is that prices out a lot of international folks. Shipping to Australia from the US is expensive, even more so after currency conversion, and God forbid we need tracking or insurance on parcels - which is why I don't own any of Whiteley's work in hard copy - I simply can't afford it. Digital doesn't have that issue - I pay a fair price for a quality product, without being punished by the USPS (or other shipping companies) for living on a different continent.
Bec Smith
2021-02-26 14:37:45 +0000 UTC😡🤬 Where's my crowbar!

Lauren
2021-02-26 14:17:22 +0000 UTCThe fact that they're all aware it is theft but are unwilling to see that their enjoying stolen art is making them accomplices is infuriating. Try to pull something like that on Disney and let me know how it works for u, asshole. I'm sorry u have to worry about this, know that whatever u choose to do we are with you.

Samara Lilly (Sandra)
2021-02-26 14:01:50 +0000 UTCHonestly? I don't blame you if you decide to stop with nsfw. This is an absolute terrible thing to say to you and would make me feel uncomfortable. I appreciate how affordable your tiers are but if people aren't going to follow your wishes, then I support you doing whatever makes you feel safe.
Kiwi
2021-02-26 13:52:45 +0000 UTCAlso it’s only two dollars a month to see your nsfw. Two dollars is NOTHING. The price of a coffee. Grow the fuck up and pay your patronage, don’t steal people’s work 🤦🏻♀️ it’s not a matter of saving their money, but more the thrill of doing something illicit. That’s what makes me want to slap them all. People can be so immature and selfish.

EsmeGlass
2021-02-26 13:35:20 +0000 UTCAbsolutely horrendous! I'll watch out for any of your art. This has to stop, why can't people see that this is theft? And above all, you said you could lose your job if these are seen outside of Patreon...I can't believe that they protect and justify this, just because others did it too...What terrible people! 😡😤
Jack Schaefer
2021-02-26 13:30:26 +0000 UTCUnfortunately I do not believe that rising prices will stop such people. How much would be too much for them to unsubscribe? 🥺 But I completely understand you - safety first. Shame to see that steeling is counted as fine.😤

2021-02-26 13:29:53 +0000 UTCI'll happily pay more for nsfw. Seriously, screw this person.

EsmeGlass
2021-02-26 13:26:22 +0000 UTCHappy to pay more for NSFW, either here, on a separate account or as digital download or whatever works for you. Your work frequently makes my day :)
Ali
2021-02-26 13:25:42 +0000 UTCThis is like those arguments I've seen of people saying "Well you shouldn't have posted it online if you didn't want anyone else using it." Or "Well I've payed for it so I should be allowed to share it!" (The latter specifically in regards to patreon). Its absolutely fowl that people would do such a thing and manipulate people into thinking they and their actions are right.

Rhelana1 .
2021-02-26 13:16:58 +0000 UTCWow. I promise to report if I see stolen art. The Facebook groups I belong to are quick to jump on folks who post art without linking to the original so it would be deleted for posting to Patreon. I am sorry you are having to consider this, I adore your work, NSFW and all! I know I use a pseudonym for my more colourful stuff. That may be a safer alternative. I’d be happy to pay a separate patreon subscription for a pseudonym account my dear to keep things separate. But I know you must take care of yourself so whatever you choose to do we will continue to love your work. 😍
Ariana Lipman
2021-02-26 13:16:56 +0000 UTCThis is such horrible behavior!!! I originally came for “down” after seeing your comics in tumblr, but I enjoy the nsfw art a lot too. I’d be willing to pay more, your art is wonderful and I love your good omens Stuff and your original works so much!!!
Yuu
2021-02-26 13:14:29 +0000 UTC100% wrong, and the reason I still just use this site for looking, not posting my own. People can be terrible

2021-02-26 13:14:17 +0000 UTCI’m not really in any closed groups to see this stuff going around, but I’ll keep my eyes peeled anyway. This is absolutely atrocious. Such a violation of trust and decency.
Dashicra
2021-02-26 13:12:51 +0000 UTCPlease don't stop posting! I'll pay more, your posts are the best thing in my inbox. I'm sorry these arseholes are stealing your work n your energy.

2021-02-26 13:10:57 +0000 UTCUgh, these people truly suck. I am so sorry you and other artists have to deal with this crap. Do what you need to do to protect yourself. We'll be with you 💕

2021-02-26 13:07:55 +0000 UTCThat is infuriating!! You don't post others work anywhere else unless you have permission! ESPECIALLY not from Patreon or other closed groups!! WTF is wrong with people thinking that is OK!? Will definitely keep my eyes open for it.
Trine
2021-02-26 13:07:02 +0000 UTCJust. Yikes. I'd be happy to pay more for nsfw tier. Also would be happy to buy nsfw art exclusively in print format. Like, take that theives, no digital nsfw at all, it's only available if you pay shipping, handling, and the costs of holding it physically in your hands. Like early 90s porn. Hard copy or bust. Take care, dear. Sending good vibes ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Sintina Soeburn
2021-02-26 13:02:07 +0000 UTCPeople like this are awful. They have such a disconnect from reality to think stealing art is okay.

2021-02-26 13:01:37 +0000 UTCIsn't there scope if there's mass reporting of theft? I mean, hasn't it worked before so maybe positive action could help
DC
2021-02-26 13:01:11 +0000 UTCChrist, I dont even know how to explain to that person and people like them everything that is wrong about reposting art, much less stealing it from behind a pay wall to repost.

Larrah
2021-02-26 12:59:35 +0000 UTCIt's sorta funny in a gross way (can't really explain my twisted logic) how the rule to "see, save on phone, don't share" is ok but "DO NOT STEAL" is not. It's not even double standards, it's just complete douche behaviour. I'm reading that line over and over again and I just don't get it....
the.kitsuneko
2021-02-26 12:58:33 +0000 UTCI say raise your prices before you stop your nsfw. It is too awesome not to share with those of us who would gladly pay for it.

I've first found their page about half a year ago, when they posted Umulata's art, and we were trying to repost and block them, only to be blocked by them immediately, and Instagram took ZERO actions against them 😔 I'm so furious they still have theur platform to do that, and now got so far as to take artist's income and privacy, it's disgusting, and I'm soso sorry this happens! and I hate to see how they go as far as to be proud of it! gosh, the audacity!!! 😠 if raising you prices or removing any nsfw will make you feel and be safer and more comfortable, as much as I'll be sad to see it go, I will support you, bc your safety is №1 priority ❤️

2021-02-26 12:53:00 +0000 UTCWhat part of “theft” does this person not understand? 1) Stealing is bad. If your art were posted in a gallery and Simone took it off the wall and walked out with it without paying, the police wouldn’t accept this half-baked argument. If you make art and people steal it, you stop making art. 2) Your Patreon prices are ridiculously low for the quality of your content. 3) In this especially contentious political climate, people - especially educators - are under attack from knee-jerk assumptions and holier-than-thou hypocrites. We don’t feed the Trolls in public. TLDR: what a callous arse.

2021-02-26 12:52:43 +0000 UTCThis thought process is so gross. Justifying something bad that's happening because it happens no matter what is? What the fuck.

2021-02-26 12:51:58 +0000 UTCThis is absolutely sickening. The complete lack of respect or appreciation aside, this is a crime and it's not victimless. There is of course the worries about employers and possible repercussions, but furthermore it opens the door for hateful people who will threaten artists. I dearly hope that anyone who might out of thoughtlessness or false sense of ownership because they did pay for patreon exclusives comes to understand THIS. You're actively endangering artists whose works you admire and therefore stopping a lot of them from creating things all together.

2021-02-26 12:51:51 +0000 UTCI keep an eye out even for non-patreon art as well. It's practically a full time job making sure that artists are getting credit, or art removed if the artist has asked not to have the art shared, only the link. It's annoying and angering that people think it's ok.

2021-02-26 12:51:43 +0000 UTCAnd to be so unrepentant and ice cold about it too!! 😳 I’m so sorry, Whiteley! I’m so angry that these jerks don’t see how WRONG they are and how much they put you artists at risk. Aaargh.

2021-02-26 12:51:00 +0000 UTCThis terrible. I am so angry about this. First, WTF, stealing from artists is wrong, period. Second, as sorry as I would be to see your NSFW posts go, you ABSOLUTELY must protect yourself. You and your well-being come first- every time.

2021-02-26 12:47:30 +0000 UTCThey paint the thief to be a Robin Hood like figure, but they're just stopping you making money from your own art. I'd hate for you to have to stop creating and sharing what you love, I really hope it doesn't come to that

2021-02-26 12:47:05 +0000 UTCAnd this.. This is why we can't have nice things. How do people not realize this is theft??
