Super important notice, please read (And important for new patrons)

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well, here is an important notice, I know the text may be a little long for some, but I hope you will take 5 minutes to read it, and understand the changes we are going to make.

For those who don't know, in the last month, we had a huge growth, many new people entered, and more than 4k followers on twitter, it was a very fast advance, and we were very happy with that, but along with the success, also comes the content piracy...

A site started to take our videos, and share, that wouldn't do any harm, if our videos weren't uploaded to a server, basically, videos that had between 50 to 200 views, the number grew 100x, that's right, a lot of people started watching, and that had a bad influence.

In case, if it were all Patrons watching, that would be perfectly normal, you are paying, you deserve to see and download as many times as you want, but unfortunately, many people from other sites started to see our content, thus overloading the server where we host the videos, and we almost had to pay an extra fee, because the current plan we have, is enough for about 500 to 1000 patrons, this being 10x more than we have now, but what we had, was a growth of 100x people watching, and currently when As I write this, we have just over 100 patrons.

Unfortunately some changes need to be made, I talked to Arthur, who makes the videos, and we agreed with that, from now on, the videos will have passwords, this making it more difficult for anyone to steal the content, to gain access to it, because it's something that is exclusive to you patrons, it's unfair, you pay, and someone just takes it for free.

How will passwords work? All videos will have the same password, I'll send it to everyone by message (Right here on Patreon) always on the 4th or 5th of each month, changing the password at every turn of the month, and for new Patrons, the good luck message will contain the password, even so, if for some reason you do not get the password, send me a message, and I will send it to you, thus keeping the content exclusive to you, without having to pay per GB of views, for people who see the videos on alternative sites.

I understand, sometimes it's hard to get money to have a monthly subscription, there are patreons that I would like to follow, but because I always have bills to pay, I need to choose which ones, and not take all of them, but you also need to understand that if it was kept that way , in a few months things would get out of control (It would greatly increase our spending), I hope you understand this, and thank you very much to everyone who has read this far, I will leave this message pinned, any questions you have, and I would like to ask, comment , maybe other people have the same doubt, I'll try to help everyone by answering.

And remember, you guys are amazing for supporting our work, Patreon removed the goals, but Arthur and I are working on different things, always thinking about new content, who knows if the goal of 1,000$ that we had set, we can add more stuff, like the extra we made, or even bigger and more elaborate videos? Many possibilities in the future, and it's all thanks to your support, thank you all so much.

Edit 1:

When you are new to Patreon, after signing Patreon, this screen will appear, there is the password, according to your Tier level, if this screen does not appear, try going to the Patreon homepage, I think it will appear.

Edit 2:

The password of 720 is for the videos in 720p, which are released on Saturday, the same for 1080 and 4K, and the "extras" is for the video on Tuesday.

Edit 3:

If you do not receive the message, the password will be in this link below, there will be your welcome message, like the image above.
