Patreon go home you are drunk

Does anyone know what's going on? I've lost like a 100$ in pledges today and my pledger count went down by 10 or something but in my patreon management it still shows the same number of people as before wtf

Firelink is comfy, no reason to leave the comfort of home. Except waifus, be on the lookout for waifus. Also I don't think my kidneys have much value at this point... unless you need an alcoholic sponge for refreshing your toilet or something.

Haha I know, for some reason the removed the ability to comment more than 2 times.

Kipteitei

Wow, that was supposed to be a reply to your comment, but this website consistently surprises me with how crappy it is.

I see, thanks. I'll go off a' scrollin' then. And I'm not cool enough to get Drak Soles references. My friend convinced me to buy it, but I haven't left Firelink Shrine ($60 is a very expensive tutorial boss). But, honestly, why would you ever leave? It's nice and safe there.... nice and safe. On an unrelated note, I see you're unwilling to part with your kidneys, but what about your liver? Word on the street is you only need like 20 pasento anyway.

It is generally hard to distinguish what's what because Patreon doesn't allow me folders or threads that I could update... the sketchbook stuff is posted now and then but most of it is from last year, so scrolling down will yield you most results. For example the pump-a-rum pic is for sketchbook-tier pledgers only.

Kipteitei

Speaking of which, am I missing the "Patreon Sketchbook" somewhere on this steaming pile of a site? Is it like a separate thing, or are they all mixed in with the newsfeed thingy? I should very much like to see the non-fats.

I agree, it is incredible how they can even function with such unprofessional coding department. It feels like its a bunch of people with feel-good ideas who don't really know how to properly execute them.

Kipteitei

Patreon seems to be absolutely crawling with bugs. I've never seen a serious website be so unprofessionally riddled with them. I mean the primary component of their website is transfer of money and that's kinda scary. It's a really great idea, but the execution is lacking to say the least. Perhaps it will improve.

Streamtiem

No, I meant, I suspect 10 people and $100 dollars of pledges failed to go through, and they finally got kicked off (kind of).

Patreon support said it's merely an algorithm that's estimating my income for this month, and the important thing I need to keep an eye on is how much money I actually get and how many declined pledges there will be. Atm I'm losing about 150$ in declined pledges.

Kipteitei

404 pledgers not found. D: Yeah, something's not adding up, I just tallied up the numbers in the rewards sidebar there, and neither the number of patrons nor the amount of cash match what it's saying at the top of the page.

Yeah and patron manager doesn't show me any decrease in total patrons, its only the number on my front page that is changing.

Kipteitei

Patreon takes a 5% cut and to my knowledge 5% of 1900$ is not 300 dollars.

Kipteitei

I've been blocking a lot of people from the 50$ tier lately because they had declined pledges all the time. But if Patreon is banning the fakes too then that is good news.

Kipteitei

I know that there are several factors which can cause it. Part of it is people deleting their Patreon accounts entirely, which means that all those who were patroned by them lose out on cash. Depending on how many people updated in line with your recent price restructuring, the 100 dollar loss could be explained between re-budgeting and this factor.

HERESY!

Profe MacKnight

Best of luck getting it sorted out, I can't imagine people would be leaving after your recent great posts.

Kestrel

People need to pay their bills. Patreon got to get paid, son.

Pink-Lightning

Sounds sucky, no idea, patreon can mess up sometimes but hopefully help will come soon!

Phat94

I've heard there's an issue with scam patrons, maybe the bots like your art as much as humans do

Jarr

Weird, hopefully just a temporary glitch. Ditto on the contacting help, can't hurt. May be able to verify which numbers are currently correct.

Jared Hammaker

well, even if that's the case, you never know, maybe it's an unreported bug, and telling them about it is doing everyone a favor :)

foducool

I just expected an auto-response from them but I guess I could try

Kipteitei

when in doubt, ask the help center ^^
