Fee upon joining change
Added 2020-01-02 22:13:10 +0000 UTCHi everybody! I noticed that several people have been joining to see the new update and the unjoining (that’s not a word) after they’ve read it. That’s so not fair to all of you who actually pay for my content 😩 so I’m going to have new members pay upon signing up. It won’t affect you guys, I just wanted to make you aware of the change! Thanks so much for your support! I love you all!

As a new patron: go you, you did the right thing. What a cruddy thing for people to do! Baaah.

2020-01-03 17:33:43 +0000 UTCThank you, it's inspired by one of my more interesting/disturbing reoccurring dreams.

2020-01-03 08:26:08 +0000 UTCI think it’s really quite reasonable to do. ❤️

2020-01-03 06:17:32 +0000 UTCI had a lot of issues with the app and the websites. That may be part of the problem with people coming and going but it’s also possible some people are just jerks. I found that the issue comes and goes so the website lack of availability is probably a server capacity issue.

2020-01-03 06:16:52 +0000 UTCWow that's such a dick move, especially when you have your tiers so low!

2020-01-03 06:06:35 +0000 UTCI joined back in mid November and did not receive my first bill until December 1st. As far as I'm aware, if I had cancelled anytime before the 1st, my money never would have gone to Whiteley, which I think is the problem.

2020-01-03 01:37:13 +0000 UTCI don't quite understand what are you saying. When you start patreoning anybody you literally can't see their patreon content until you're their parteon >> paid the montly payment of a tier. Even if you're joining at 30th, you're still immediately billed with the montly bill which you're immediately required to pay in order to see any patreon content. You can't see patreon content without paying a month of payment to them. If somebody only can pay one month, then they can immediately break the payment after paying the first one (so they won't forget it and getting billed again later), it can happen, that's their budget to decide. Are you saying your patreon content could been viewed for free until now?

2020-01-03 01:26:02 +0000 UTCI’m more than happy to pay the fee... but I can’t read the comic on Patreon. I’ve tried two browsers and they both crash when I tap on one of the thumbnails.

2020-01-03 01:07:39 +0000 UTCA lot of others charge at joining for this reason. You absolutely should make this change because you deserve to be compensated!
Haley-Anne Miller
2020-01-03 01:01:56 +0000 UTCAnd not fair to you! Your wonderful work deserves compensation.
Meghan O'Connell
2020-01-03 00:54:40 +0000 UTCWow, I would think you would get charged for the first month at joining :-o

2020-01-03 00:32:36 +0000 UTCI wish patreon would auto charge at join tbh. Artists deserve all the support. (Hi i just joined!)

2020-01-03 00:04:59 +0000 UTCI noticed I didn't get charged when I first joined... How rude. It's not even that expensive

2020-01-02 23:58:02 +0000 UTCWow, your username is both disturbing and awesome. 😳

2020-01-02 23:57:05 +0000 UTCThat's super rude! 😒😒
slushpuff
2020-01-02 23:20:18 +0000 UTCPeople do that? Rude. You put so much work into this and then you put it up for free. I think you made a very wise choice.

2020-01-02 23:15:11 +0000 UTCThat's absolutely terrible. Definitely charge a joining fee. Shame on those people.
Dani Ang
2020-01-02 22:56:18 +0000 UTCI have to say I joined and was surprised you did not charge me immediately. It is not fair for you! I think it is a good idea! :D
Isabel Madera
2020-01-02 22:49:19 +0000 UTCThat's rude of them. I hope people stay now.

2020-01-02 22:47:33 +0000 UTCI'm glad you changed it, you and your beautiful art don't deserve to be cheated like that 💖

2020-01-02 22:42:20 +0000 UTCUgh that's awful. Artists should be supported!
Jean Jarvis
2020-01-02 22:36:25 +0000 UTCCompletely support you in this! I hate people that do things like this, and it's a recurring theme, unfortunately.

2020-01-02 22:30:39 +0000 UTCThat's so rude!! I'm sorry!! Do what you need to!

2020-01-02 22:24:03 +0000 UTCThat's not cool! That's cheating! I'm so sorry people are doing that 😠
Mysti Jones
2020-01-02 22:21:26 +0000 UTCGood for you dear! Please, never let someone take from you, as your talents have value <3

2020-01-02 22:21:10 +0000 UTCDid you see that with Alice's too? So rude and unfair to the artists. I'll pay what I pledge until I can't, no matter what other people do. I'm more annoyed on behalf of you guys. You all work so hard on the content. If they don't want to pay they can wait for the tumblr updates. 😠
Kaiannanthi
2020-01-02 22:20:19 +0000 UTCYes! I'm so happy to be a patron (makes me feel like a Medici without all the incest and murder) and help you make gorgeous art for us to enjoy! You take care of you is my 2020 motto and I'm glad you are doing that! <3

2020-01-02 22:16:58 +0000 UTCMy god, I can’t believe this: how can someone try to trick you so?
Marta Panzeri
2020-01-02 22:16:27 +0000 UTCAlso: best not-very-many-dollars I have ever spent. I love being a patron!
catchmyfancy
2020-01-02 22:15:15 +0000 UTCWhaaat that is so uncool, especially because it’s cheating you out of your payment as well. Sounds like the change is well in order 👍🏻
