Sad to hear, but since russia get more and more excluded from swift, this was to be expected and the bad news are, so long putin don't move his ass out of ukraine, the sanctions won't be lifted

In fact, in any country, any pornographic industry is a gray area，So the only way is to order something legal，such as SFW works:)

Huh. I had no idea Hioshiru was from Russia. Now I understand all the Patreon fears. I was thinking word leaked Patreon was banning adult artists or something like that. Yeah that is a bit harder of a problem to deal with as there are alternatives to Patreon, but any legitimate one will be enacting similar Russia assets freezes. Unfortunately unless Putin gets disposed of, these sanctions will remain in place for years. Best of luck Hioshiru 💙

I think the 'not discussing it' is part of the problem; honestly. I've seen similar posts on FA and I can absolutely understand how it must suck to be cut off your only source of income – especially considering that some furry porn would actually be illegal in Russia. At the same time, people seem to expect to have their problems solved for them. I know you personally can't do much. I sympathise your situation. But you could take a stronger stance on the war. Not like spetsnaz gonna walk into your door.

I wish this didn’t have to affect you. It’s heartbreaking. :( Like others are saying, let us know about alternatives or ways we may be able to help. I hope you’re able to figure out something in the meantime. Keep us updated on how you’re doing as things change, because even if you’re unable to put much time into art, it’d be comforting to know you’re able to take care of yourself still and doing alright. Stay safe and take care of yourself, Hio. I hope you aren’t affected for very long.

I hope that the conflicts are resolved soon. For the sake of all the people suffering. If you find another way for people to send you money be sure to let us know.

I am so sorry you have to deal with the events going on, please take care of yourself and know that I don't blame you or any ordinary Russians for the current conflict. I hope things can be resolved quickly and Russian artists can resume their livelihoods soon

Stomak

Oh dear! I’m so terribly sorry to hear that! I hope they will unfreeze it soon for you and other Russian creators! Do stay safe!

Digital-Novarts

Yep, let us know if/when you find an alternative service we can redirect the funds for you to!

Runoratsu

I'm very sorry to discuss this here，But this is indeed a political issue，We are all affected by this:(

I understand! I will obviously continue my subscription regardless so that I can at least support you for once you are able to access your funds again! Please stay safe!

Kuroi-ashi

This is true, but the output option is disabled anyway.. Thank you, I will try and keep you updated!

Hioshiru

I'm really sorry to read that.. russian population are innocent for this situation and still have to pay for it. But at least I think to block only the withadrawl is still better than a complete block. Stay safe.. let us know if there is anything we can do to help you.

xuliaxis

At the moment, unfortunately, I do not know, but I will look for options

Hioshiru
