We need to talk.

Good afternoon everyone :3, due to some unpleasant discoveries I’ve made over the last few days, I’ve decided to take security measures for my work along with other changes I see necessary to implement. Below is a detailed list of the changes along with a brief description or reasoning:

• All links have now been simplified into a single one, to have more efficient control when publishing them.

• The necessary links will ONLY be published in Patreon’s welcome message, and these links will be replaced from time to time, basically whenever I see it necessary — so it’s important to check the welcome message every time you want to view my content.
  (The welcome message can be found in the "membership" section, which does not appear in Patreon’s mobile app — you must use a browser on your phone or PC.)

• Patreon has a community tab where Tier 2 and Tier 3 chats are located; previously, I published links there, but now links will no longer be posted in those chats — they will only serve to answer questions.

• I usually send the links to new animations along with a thank-you note in private. I will continue sending these messages, but those links will have an expiration date, so during the week I send them, please check that message, and afterward, check Patreon’s welcome message in case the private chat link no longer works.

• Patreon-exclusive illustrations will no longer be exclusive and will be published on social media. This is because people kept reposting these illustrations on other platforms, removing my credit when I published them.

These changes are being implemented to increase the security of my content, since I’ve discovered that some people have leaked content from Discord, Patreon, Patreon chats, and even the welcome message itself. Regarding Discord, I decided to post the illustrations on social media instead — this helps me grow, and it makes leaks less valuable. As for Patreon, the only viable solution I found was to simplify the links into one and change it whenever I see necessary...

I really don’t like doing all of this, as I feel it hurts your experience with my content and reduces the value of the Discord server, but it’s a way to respect all the support you’re giving me and the work that takes me so much effort day after day.

I apologize if these changes are overwhelming or annoying for you, but they are truly necessary. If you have any questions, opinions, or suggestions, let me know :3.
Thank you for your understanding, and have a nice day (づ￣ 3￣)づ
