Patreon Up-Front Payment

Added 2022-08-31 12:22:56 +0000 UTC

Thank you to everyone who's still subscribed!

Unfortunately I've received notifications that some Patrons cancelled their membership today. And some signed up only today and cancelled immediately after.
I'd like to think this might be a coincidence that today is the 31st of the month and Patrons would receive their bill tomorrow. I'd also like to give those people the benefit of the doubt, but I still feel a little upset about this.

I think it's extremely rude and unfair to those who plan to stay subscribed for a longer time when there is a possibility to sign up for one day, download all the content and leave again before being charged by Patreon.

That's probably the reason why there is the option to enable Patreon Up-Front Payment, which I didn't think would be necessary. It seems however that this is not uncommon on this platform and I'll be enabling this option staring tomorrow.

Already existing Patrons will NOT be charged an additional fee according to the Patreon FAQ.
The only downside to this is that new Patrons will be charged twice when signing up at the end of a month. One bill for the current month and another bill for the new month.

Again, thank you for being here and supporting me!
I hope you'll be enjoying my Uploads in the future as well.
