Clearing Up Payment Confusion

Added 2022-11-01 19:24:27 +0000 UTC

hey everyone!

Just wanted to clear up a question I got in case anyone else is confused. The charge that went through today went through twice (like you were paying for two videos instead of one). This is because you were, and the DUST video and this new one just stacked. Charges only occur on the 1st of every month, unless, as it turns out, you post something on the 1st. In that case, the charge happens at the next 1st of the month. So the charge that just went through was for the DUST video as well as the pathologic one.

Figure it's a good time to mention this now too: as my upload frequency increases I may wish to switch to a pay-per-month model. Currently the system is pay-per-video, and it's that way because when I started the Patreon I wasn't confident I could get out a video every month and I didn't want to charge people for months I didn't post. Now that I can comfortably put out 3 videos every 2 months (ish), and I expect that number to grow, confusion like this may happen and I may be charging you more that your subscribed tier amount per month.

Knowing all that, would you folks then prefer I switch to a pay-per-month model or keep things as they are? The pay-per-month model ensures consistency in what you pay every month, but it also means that when I work on huge projects (like my Enderal video or the New California/The Frontier video i'm planning) you may end up paying more for less videos than you do now, which is 1:1. Let me know how you feel and once I make the decision i'll update you all and let you know what's up.

In the mean time, if you didn't know that the system was set up like it is and the 2x charge this month is unexpected and unfeasible for you, DM me and i can refund you.
