It's impossible to make watermarks barely noticeable for everyone. There are too many different types of displays nowadays (several LCDs, several OLEDs, HDR, etc). What one screen may show a very noticeable watermark, another one might barely be visible. In fact, I have been tweaking the settings every week and this episode has the watermarks with the highest transparency, even tho you think this one is the most noticeable one. (see the irony?). Finding a balance is pretty much impossible. Thank you for the months of support. Hope you enjoyed our content!

2024-12-29 21:00:12 +0000 UTCThe only locked package posts are for early access episodes. If we made them unlocked for all tiers you would get notifications for episodes that you already read ;)

2024-12-29 20:58:34 +0000 UTCWhy are the “package” tier posts on Patreon locked when I’m paying for the “pallet” tier? The actual website works fine but things seem to be screwed up here.

2024-12-29 20:52:52 +0000 UTCI understand the need to protect your content from leaks, and I appreciate the effort your team puts into these comics. However, when the watermark becomes too prominent, it can feel like paying supporters are being penalized—especially given the roughly $130 I’ve contributed so far, which I’ve always considered a sign of loyalty rather than a demand for additional perks. I still respect your decision and hope a less intrusive solution can be found. Unfortunately, I’ll have to let my subscription lapse until that happens, which means it will end next month. I truly wish you all the best and thank you for the work you do.

2024-12-29 07:56:00 +0000 UTCI never said that. I am saying that the 130 usd you paid were for products and services you received. Products being the comic, spicy artwork and stories and services being the early access and discord access. Green valley is an added bonus and each tier receives a different bonus.

2024-12-29 07:33:49 +0000 UTCSo to be clear. You're stating that 2 week early access to green valley is not a perk of the patreon subscription?

2024-12-29 07:29:04 +0000 UTCGreen Valley was never part of the Patreon subscription. You paid for early access to the comic, spicy content, stories and to support the comic itself. We put thousands of dollars to fund this extra comic as a thank you to the community. I know the watermarks aren't ideal, but the leaks were hurting us and we need to protect our Patreon. We're no longer Just heru and me (Syd). there's a whole group of people who work on this as their full time job.

2024-12-29 05:21:35 +0000 UTCYeah but that's punishing the entire class (that pays money) for the acts of a few. If it were using less painfully obvious watermarking I wouldn't mind but for the $130 I've given to this project so far in monthly subscription fees I'm disappointed I'm paying for a distraction.

2024-12-29 05:15:02 +0000 UTCIt is because there is a problem with people uploading episodes to Tiktok before they were released to the public.

2024-12-29 04:35:03 +0000 UTCI hadn't noticed it in prior comics in previous weeks but now I can't unsee it. did you make it more apparent or something?

2024-12-29 00:31:04 +0000 UTCNot a big fan of the super obvious watermark that insinuates I'm a thief when I'm paying for the product. -.-
