TeacupAudio / 👀 I Did Some Perving 👀 (Serious Inner Debate)

Tea, I find it an interminable blessing that you create and share so much for us. If you want to try branching out and building your reach and portfolio elsewhere, please do, but do NOT think that you're somehow producing too much; the only time that is ever the case if it's too much for YOU to maintain.

Always showing up late to these posts, but: Create as much content as you feel capable of. I'll second the other patrons that say don't overwork or stress yourself out, and apart from that - if you like your output, that's all that matters!

As long as the amount of content isn't overworking you or stressing you out, in my opinion, I think it's a good amount. But you come first, Tea ❤️

You are doing a wonderful job, Tea. It will only be wonderful if you are into it. I have no problem with how much content you produce so long as you are happy doing it.

Most YouTubers I follow, have a Patreon for incom, they would leave YT (doesn't pay has much, and they have requirements that are hard to follow and make their job not as enjoyable as it used to.). You, not enjoying what you do is the last thing I want.

Do whatever you feel is right, my bet is look in and ask "why" you are putting out so many audios, is it because you enjoy it and want to or do you feel like you have to?

I think things are great the way they are now. Branching out to reddit will hopefully get you more exposure and increase your audience size. Keep up the good work Tea 👍

2024-11-12 20:19:54 +0000 UTC

You're doing amazing Tea - I know the old saying is "how can we miss you if you never go away," but don't take that to heart - I, for one, had to cut back not too long ago on folks I support because of you know, the usual financial nonsense, but I stayed precisely because you create so much that I truly feel like I'm not just getting my subscription's worth, I'm getting WAY MORE THAN THAT. So on the one hand, I'm quite happy with the volume you produce, but on the other, you could CERTAINLY tap the brakes a little bit, take normal vacations like a person with a job (because you are) and I doubt any of us would go anywhere because of that!

i don't consume other VA content but when i have looked it seems like they dont post as much on patreon because ALOT of them also have fansly/of which you dont. so i wouldnt say you post too much on here its just that this is primarily where your audience is.

Avery

2024-11-12 13:24:01 +0000 UTC

You could lessen the audios to like 2 a week. I think it would also be fire to work on some collab audios with other VA’s just to broaden the reach and exposure.

rdimes

2024-11-12 12:57:17 +0000 UTC

I have brought this up many times previously, so you only realising this now hurts a little. I fail to see how your higher rate of content production is a bad thing beyond burnout, and most of your peers suffer worse burnout from a much lesser workload anyway. I see four pathways that you could take: 1) develop a reputation acrosd all of your chosen platforms (and I fo mean all of them) for having the best productivity of any VA (not including livestreams) 2) tone things way down to a content production rate comparable to your peers and keep most of your time to yourself for the real world, including hobbies and family/friend interactions 3) livestreams and/or gaming, especially with us 4) any combinations of the first three, including any two of the three or a combination of all three

Lachlan Parker

I'd say the current schedule is good but if you need more time to yourself to see family, any of your hobbies or just rest that's perfectly fine

Aion

2024-11-12 10:09:55 +0000 UTC

I feel this is your primary platform at this point and you post as you feel. If though your scared it's to much or to infrequent, try setting specifik dates for release, or make a post each month of some stuff you will release and mark dates were you hope to release something your keeping secret. I also think noting what is what would be good, like what placement they got in a poll or if it was a Tea's choice or maybe something you yourself came up with. Being on the spectrum i know these are things id likely do because order 🤣

Mathias Kristian Graversen

2024-11-12 09:56:16 +0000 UTC

If it's causing you to struggle creatively (meaning having a hard time making content) yes slow down. If the pace you're going with audios is the equivalent of just: 'cooking dinner for one'; don't change. If anything do the thing that "hehe happy brain chemicals go brrrr"

Gerald Allen Overdorf

2024-11-12 08:54:47 +0000 UTC

As long as you don't feel like it's unsustainable, I'd say keep on the pace.

You make some good points. Best to come up with a strategy on how to keep the YouTube channel up. It seemed to be the main source of "growth" for the fanbase

Wofuz

2024-11-12 04:51:23 +0000 UTC

As someone prone to overstimulation Breathe And the output is perfectly fine but if it is becoming a strain for you then it will be perfectly fine as well for it to be slowed You’ve attained much respect from your fanbase with your excellent communication and content We will understand Look out for yourself

Da Doofus

2024-11-12 04:23:49 +0000 UTC

Personally I think you need to do what is best for you, if that means some months you share more content than others, great. If not, that's okay too, but as a content creator, at least giving your viewers and patrons a heads up if things slow down. Sometimes we need to work at our own pace, because setting a consistent schedule for prolonged periods of time can be very daunting and is a lot of pressure. You're doing great though, and what works for other creators doesn't always work for you as an individual. 👍

I think the upload rate is fine but that's a consumer view. If you feel its too much for you then please don't feel pressured into making more for us. If any of us aren't ready for another upload then we can always come back and listen later but if you aren't happy with how often you do it then you should adjust accordingly to fit your own situation and feelings

As a neurospicy with a similarly manic work ethic... Please don't let your output become a self-measurement of your worth. You're worth FAR more than your publication count, and the quality confirms that. Assuming your inner voice is anything like mine... Please rest assured that you are NOT "getting everything wrong," no matter what your inner voice wails. (Getting everything wrong, in my opinion, is only possible via committing a particularly heinous crime :-P ) But the key point is... Holy cow you work hard. And it shows. There are very few VAs I've seen that keep up such an aggressive schedule without relying heavily on scripts written by others or feeling the need to completely recreate their channels from scratch on a near-yearly basis under a new public identity (which I imagine is a completely different but no less valid kind of mental strain). One thing I learned from a video game streamer named DDRJake (who could EASILY do some limited VA work if he wanted, given how many people state they listen to his streams to help them sleep etc) that completely threw me off was his completely reversed strategy to the norm; he unashamedly refuses to put himself through things he does not actually enjoy in some way, as otherwise he'll lose the love for his income-generating job. He even uses "Viewer Reduction Strategies" when streaming to reduce chatter or undesirable behaviour in his streams. ...Maybe we're thinking about this in the wrong way? Should we be considering his path of "if you like what I do, awesome! If not, you don't have to stay..!" I know that flies in the face of the mentality that, for example, I was brought up with, but... He seems a heck of a lot less stressed than I ever am..! (Guess why I'm a Teacup Audio subscriber, you guessed it, Sleep Aid!!) I guess the thing that I perceive to have hamstrung TeaCupAudios (no surprises here) is how the YouTube channel seems to get targeted for take-down... If not for that near-constant kicking in the kneecaps, your platform would probably be still 'climbing' in popularity. Are you aware of if it's particular audio types that are getting blocked ("Dude That's Wholesome" is an example of a spin-off channel that was made to get around that problem)? Or if there has been aggressive reporting/flagging (a la "MamaYunya," who has been through three channel renames AND turned off comments), or is it more that it's getting "de-monetised" (which slaps down the likes of "Endearin' Audio" from time to time)? And... Hear me out... If it's the latter... Maybe 'ignoring' monetisation will let the YouTube channel survive and act as a 'pointer' to Patreon..? Not ideal, but hey, no-one really likes hearing adverts while they're trying to relax...

Well YouTube is... YouTube. Reddit is such a hivemind I'm glad I got out when I did and it's only gotten worse since then. Twitch, while a solid option, is a bit of a pain for mobile users because I've gried the Twitch app and it sicks all kinds of ass. Honestly, I absolutely love how you do things now. Patreon is a flawed but good enough platform and I feel like we as your audience can interact with you as a creator a health amount.

Jonathan Stark

2024-11-12 00:06:44 +0000 UTC

i say you do put out a lot and as a consumer its a good thing but for you as a creator it can be bad. In a general statement I would say if you wanna keep your progress rate going go ahead, but also if you choose to take weekly or more breaks in between go ahead too. or even do a massive content drop then take long breaks after whichever makes you feel more free and fulfilled.

Lockelet

2024-11-11 23:49:24 +0000 UTC

I know that, personally, I would be A-OK with a slight pullback on uploads. But whatever workflow works best for you and allows you to enjoy yourself while also not overworking yourself. :)

Tyler W

2024-11-11 23:49:17 +0000 UTC

I’ve always liked your pace with uploads just make sure you don’t burn yourself out if you feel like you’re doing too much by all means go ahead and take breaks

I don’t mind the all the work you’ve put out and let us enjoy. If it’s a lot for you, then slow it down; if it’s not hurting you, then you continue what you’re doing. You know what’s best and what works for you. We will support you the best way we can

Camilo Iribarren

2024-11-11 23:35:16 +0000 UTC

Not gonna lie, it is a lot. I get like the most, or at least the second-most, Patreon notifications from you! And your Audio pool - excuse me - OCEAN is vast, But being an active creator is not a bad thing. It keeps platforms and communities alive. I come here every day multiple times looking for specific audios, looking for what's new, looking to be surprised, looking for something nice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. There are some VA's that BARELY post 1 audio a month. Though that also varies a lot. Few have strict upload schedules. But it's really sad because the creators I follow I like really much and getting so little is... well, sad :(((. Especially if the script of that one audio is not what I was hoping for... :,-( That being said, I don't want people uploading content just to fulfill some quota. Burnout is a real thing and it's a bitch. But you uploading content is the REASON I come here! The less there is, the sadder it is. You could say that having a lot of audios makes them each less impactful, because people aren't going to listen to everything if there is only so much time in a day. But choice is a good thing! People aren't "pressured" into being content with the one audio they got. They can decide and prioritize the posts that they think they will enjoy. And besides, what is somebody who just discovered your (Or anyone else's) Content going to do - listen to EVERYTHING? Fuck no. They look for stuff they might enjoy and the latest posts. (Probably, I mean, maybe they listen to everything, I won't judge) Point is, I'm a power user. Or addict, I suppose. I can't get enough. I would love better search functions from Patreon. Looking through big libraries is... time-consuming. People who only check their Patreon once a month - damn, do you only watch one YouTube video per month too?? smh couldn't be me.

2024-11-11 23:26:17 +0000 UTC

This was something i been mentioning about burn out of ideas(not bad ideas or as of now) i meant that the more content you push out can hurt the future ideas instead of pacing and making sure you put your whole heart into(which you do by knocking them out of the park) im fine with how many you do but in the long run i worry about how you will feel. Love ya tea. I leave it to you because you see the satiyistics/the money, and your ideas and scripts come to life

BNutt18

2024-11-11 23:04:05 +0000 UTC

for me it was always more about quality than quantity, while keeping your upload schedule means you have better chance of hitting something someone wants and enjoys, that being said it is clear it's possible to keep much smaller rate of audios and keeping reasonable income/audience. Will it work for you the same? Perhaps, but you should be prepared it might not, after all the ppl I know have VA as a hobby and not their main source of income, they also adopt script form writers and not always make their own, in fact some exclusively voice others writing.

Ultimately, it depends on how you feel. If you think this is good enough, then I think it's good enough. If you feel it's too much, back off, take some time to reevaluate, and come back when you think you've got a good time frame sorted out. I personally listen to a great majority of your audios because they are entertaining to me. If you feel the need to cut back, I'm not going anywhere, and I think a good amount of us will stay as well. Whatever you feel you need to do to get ahold of a good timeframe FOR YOU, do it. We'll most likely still be here.

Matthew Snedden

2024-11-11 22:32:41 +0000 UTC

So long as you’re not burnt out, I’d say the flow is acceptable. If you are burnt out, then rest! It’s no issue!

Galactic Gaming

2024-11-11 22:10:55 +0000 UTC

I love the output rate you have been adhering to. So long as you don't burn out, I love it. That's why I keep coming back to you specifically.

PuNcH 1T

2024-11-11 22:02:03 +0000 UTC

I think it's fine if you want to step back for awhile, but it depends on you. The VAs I follow all have different upload frequencies, and they'll change whenever they feel it's time. One of them took a full-on break over the Summer, then did their special marathon of uploads in September instead of October, as she had in previous years. Others focus on streaming and their scripted stuff is secondary, so they'll upload every other month, if that. And one VA has only uploaded three times this year due to medical emergencies and natural disasters, and most of her followers still support her (myself included). If the current rate works for you, keep on track. If it's time for a change, change it up. We'll be here either way. I know it's easy to doubt yourself as a creator, but keep in mind that your work is an extension of yourself, and everyone here is here for you.

Jack

2024-11-11 21:56:25 +0000 UTC

I like the consistent uploads as in a way it shows that you are already and well. if there was suddenly a massive gap with no warning, it is then that I would be worried

Greenstrike

2024-11-11 21:53:20 +0000 UTC

As someone who follows a few VAs on Patreon, you are correct, your output rate is significantly higher. While I'm fine with it, I have wondered if it is sustainable. In my opinion your SFW audios are unmatched, unique to you, and why I subscribed. As others have said, if reducing the output rate will avoid burnout, please do so. The other thing I can recommend is talking to other VAs to see if they have insight. Perhaps even a collaboration with another VA on an audio might be helpful. Or put another way, networking. I hate that word but I can't deny it works.

Rodrigo Chillingworth

2024-11-11 21:49:19 +0000 UTC

I am with agreement with most of the people on here. Post as much as you want as long as you don’t burn out. If you need a break take one.

Jeremy Vargo

2024-11-11 21:44:08 +0000 UTC

I appreciate the amount of content you make. That being said if you want or need a break, you should take one. Whether that means slowing down content or pausing it completely, do whatever you need to do to properly take care of yourself! As long as you’re doing that you aren’t doing anything wrong!

Aeon

2024-11-11 21:39:33 +0000 UTC

What matters is YOU. Quality has been amazing as always. if you want to focus on building an audience ill still be here, if you want to continue with the amount of content you put out ill still be here, if you want to take a month long break ill still be here

VoiceEnjoyer

2024-11-11 21:38:23 +0000 UTC

You do upload quite a bit more than some others on average. Wich is a part that I enjoy. But I also know it's hard to work that hard with the scripts, acting and editing the whole thing. Lowering the workload to focus on fewer episodes per month could be a good shout for your health's sake.

Finnish The Finnish

2024-11-11 21:37:09 +0000 UTC

As long as you don't burn yourself out, I really like how frequently you upload. But if you need to slow down for your own sake that's more than fine too.

Mr. September

2024-11-11 21:22:36 +0000 UTC

hope YT stop been asshole to you, for streaming on Twitch and posting on Reddit is mostly on you i would recomend to watch some streams first so nothing new from me, sorry

Erik Arhar

2024-11-11 21:21:23 +0000 UTC

I definitely wouldn't want a break, I love constant audios to enjoy. That's why I'm a patron. Cuz you make good content consistently. Also the only person I patron as well. The question isn't if we want a break, because we definitely don't. But do you want one. If you do, then do so, but we don't.

Diamonddin

2024-11-11 21:17:14 +0000 UTC

I actually like seeing Tea's uploads quite often. In comparison to other Patreons, you have this as your focus. Half the time others start out with this, then go to youtube, then start streaming, then patreon gets abandoned or left in the dust- or in one case I personally remember actually kept taking payment while ignoring the platform entirely to stream. I love seeing you being active here, because it means you are actually working on content. So long as "you" are okay with it, and your health is alright, I don't see any real issue. Much love Tea. Be safe and be well.

Nox Nemesis

2024-11-11 21:17:11 +0000 UTC

T your very consistent at communicating with us. When you need a break you state it and we as a community fully support those moments when you need to recoup. Your schedule in my opinion is fine and I trust that if anything does plan to change in the future you'll give us a heads up. It's nice not being caught outta left field and knowing you are willing to communicate with us whenever you need time for yourself 😁

It always a joy to see your content you work so hard on it for us all but you have to do what you think is good for you if you enjoy posting frequently then do it . your content is amazing but don't over work yourself your health is important find a good mid ground that works for you .

Wolfman

Upload whenever you can Tea. It doesn't matter if you upload alot or little were all here to enjoy and support your content.

Phoenix Brave Hideki

2024-11-11 20:54:41 +0000 UTC

I've generally liked your output, both in pace and variety. I'm personally weary of twitch and the like, as I can rarely get onto live streams between work and errands. The pace has never been too much for me. However, if you need to adjust fir your own well being, or if you change tactics for your growth, I'll stick around.

papersamurai00

2024-11-11 20:53:42 +0000 UTC

Well, I suppose I will throw my two cents at it. I particularly enjoy the content you make Tea, and I have no problem with the amount of content at the rate you are producing it. However, I will say, my biggest concern is whether you will eventually suffer from burnout, and I would accept in a hearbeat a lower "rate" of content output so to speak, if it meant you were both comfortable and felt you could do your best at your own pace. Any other concerns are secondary in my mind to this.

Philip Kruse

2024-11-11 20:51:25 +0000 UTC

I appreciate your openess with us as always. I think the rate at which you upload things is great. I do think though, that trying build up the general view base on other platforms would be a good idea. I understand YouTube has been unreliable, but it does garner a lot of views. I don't think you should give on posting more content there to draw people in. This is simply my opinion, but above all else, I just want you to be in a place where you know you're succeeding and not having to question your own abilities as a creator.

Jub

2024-11-11 20:38:17 +0000 UTC

You say you get overwhelmd quickly, streaming can get overwhelming quick. Also maybe have a schedule on audio's. Like 3 to 4 audio's a month or something like that :))

Cooper Little

2024-11-11 20:32:46 +0000 UTC

You should do what you feel comfortable with. Sometimes more, sometimes less is fine by me. You upload a lot, and I have been wondering if behind the scenes it ever overwhelms you. If it doesn't, then by all means, put it all out there. But I'd much rather have fewer uploads and know that you are comfortable and content than the other way around. You are the most important person here and your well-being is paramount. Even if you were to decide to step away, for a while or forever, I firmly believe the people here would be grateful for everything you've done and supportive of your decision. <3

Robert

2024-11-11 20:31:52 +0000 UTC

I don't think that you should limit audios so we can "get a break," (I don't think any of us are or could get sick of your work). But maybe limiting audios so you don't burn yourself out or overwork yourself. Try to find what you think is a comfortable workload

Jake F

2024-11-11 20:31:48 +0000 UTC

You make a lot of content, Tea. Even a couple times a month would be good. But if you wanted to stop for a while or permanently, do what is best for you. Sometimes we have to set things aside.

My Patreon Account

2024-11-11 20:31:12 +0000 UTC

I just realized this is gonna be really long so if you weren’t looking for that sorry in advance. I am fine with whatever you think is best for you and your mental health. I personally enjoy all of your audios. However, you have to consider your own mental and physical health when looking at your work load. I also don’t think it’s entirely fair to compare what other VAs are doing to what you are doing since a lot of them have completely different situations. You mentioned a lot of VAs focus on YouTube, which is fine because it works for them. At the same time, they haven’t had to deal with starting their YouTube channel over and over again like you have. You also mentioned that a lot of them post less than you do. I imagine some of that has to do with that they work a job outside of everything they do VA-wise so it’s difficult for them to post more. I’m sure some of them would love to be able to post more. I know this is something I struggle with too, but I am slowly trying to get myself out of the mindset of comparing what I’m doing to everyone else. I know it’s really hard to do so, but I’ve been coming more and more to terms with the fact that I can’t see everything that other people deal with and it’s not fair for either person to compare what we see to ourselves. Alright, long tap over. If you got this far, just know that I appreciate everything you do, and you got this

WolfLord11

2024-11-11 20:30:11 +0000 UTC

Whatever is easiest for you and makes sure you won't get burnt out is the best but I think the amount you put out now is absolutely perfect.

JGuy

2024-11-11 20:29:44 +0000 UTC

Hey Tea, Just wanted to say that I really appreciate all the stuff you share on Patreon. Given how much YouTube has been giving you trouble—banning your channel so often—it makes total sense to have Patreon as your main spot. I think most of us like having everything together here where it’s "stable". A lot of other VAs might stick to YouTube, but it makes sense why you've focused on Patreon—it's way more dependable for your followers. As for the “trying too hard” feeling you mentioned, maybe mixing in some of those simpler, more “vanilla” scenarios could help take the pressure off?? You've always had such a good way of bringing out relatable, real moments, and I think a return to those “vanilla” vibes might feel work for you? Nothing wrong with the current stuff at all! (I want to make sure that is clear) just throwing it out there since it could be a return to form , if that’s something you’d be up for. Maybe those kinds of everyday, relatable scenarios could make the content even more accessible to a wider audience?

I thought your schedule was fine before, considering how YT treats you it isn't worth putting in the effort only to eventually get banned again.

Do whatever you feel comfortable with, if you need to slow down production any go for it, but I personally don't feel any sort of overburdened if that makes any sense by the amount of content

I personally like how much content there is, but if you want/need to cut back that obviously should take priority. It’s your content, and I speak for most of us when I say we’ll be here either way

Upload whenever and however many times you want. Content creation shouldnt feel like a task or job. Creating should be driven by passion, not what you feel like others expect out of you in my opinion. I personally only upload on my YouTube channel when I really have a video idea/topic that I really wanna put out. This mentality definitely hurts consistency for some, but imo the increase in quality is worth it.

Honestly your content output is amazing. And is part of the reason why I'm here. Do what you have to in order to avoid burnout. To me there's no such thing as too many audios. Either I'm listening as they come out or I get to build up a nice backlog to binge. I think you're doing great Tea. To me you are the best.

Speaking from the perspective of the customer here, if the question ist whether or not I want less content for the same price then the answer is obviously no, of course I don't. If the quality of the audios is consistently high and you aren't burning yourself out, then I don't think that scarcity would result in more engagement. You could also try posting to /r/gonewildaudio and /r/pillowtalkaudio on Reddit. I've seen other VAs grow an audience on there too.

If you take a break, it should be for your wellbeing, you're doing fine. Comparing yourself to anyone will lead you to think you're doing poorly, but its based on how you are doing and how your community is doing

I think I speak for many of us when we say that we will enjoy your content, however much or little you choose to provide. What matters is how you feel, and what will bring you the most joy in your work!

You post a lot more content than others, if YouTube is going to continue to screw you over maybe you take some of the patreon audios you'd normally post just here and start consistently posting on GoneWildAudio to help get new audiences. That's where I've found most of the VAs I sub to here.

Are you concerned about burnout? Or about saturating the NSFW VA market?

Michael Garrett

I think it's been great, though I focus mostly on the content that Twitch or YT doesn't allow, so that's just a personal view.

Dunno why you feel that way. I've been following your channel for several years now and you seem to be doing perfectly fine.

If this is your full time work then you are doing well. Some that put out like 2 a month I sub for a month listen to a few audios then unsub and wait for more. If you want to step back I would understand you do a lot for us. If you mean a value proposition, yours is great for us poor folks.

I think your doing fine I do worry you may burn yourself out as your produce so much content. My gauge from how other content creators do things that may be worth testing is they have a series or character launch on YouTube and either parts are released early or alternated between patreon and youtube. Some use youtube for sfw stuff linking to extended or sequel nsfw content on patreon, sowhich also seems to be the push on reddit as a 18+ focused platform.

I'd say if you can make as much content as you can go for it. The only reason why so many VA / asmrs or streamers only upload so much is because their schedule is very hectic and can't make the time to do so. For instance I run a channel as well but I can only afford to do one video a week four for a month. Maybe one or two audios on patreon if I'm able. But if you do have the capacity to make it and it doesn't burn you out that's a go for it the more the merrier. But if you would like to test this theory to see if you do get more engagement by not uploading try at least one month to test that theory out see what happens.

Work at a pace that is comfortable for you. You should decide what that is. Those of us who have followed you for years have watched you get worn out multiple times.

Mike Taylor

2024-11-11 20:19:16 +0000 UTC

That's definitely an option to consider. For me it's exciting to have so much to delve into but maybe other listeners need the chance to miss the audios in a sense.

Your current rate works for me(on the SFW side), but if you think you should cut back a little, that's also a good amount of content

Justin Chery

Do what you enjoy doing. If it's posting more then others do, then keep doing that. If you want to post less, that's fine too. Just do what you are comfortable with. Those who care will be happy about what you post either way. Keep going your way however you want to
