IMPORTANT TIER CHANGES

Hello lovely Patrons!

Perhaps you already noticed that Patreon changed the currencies in the tiers. Because of that creators have the chance to adjust their tiers. That's what we're about to do.

If you want to know more about currency changes on Patreon in general you can read more about it here and here.

We're living in Germany. That's why we will change the currency to Euro (€). That will change the prices of the tiers.

Good news: Nothing changes for existing Patrons. Except those in the 10$ (Conspirator at the moment).

We suggest those in the 10$ and up tier to check if they want to edit their pledge after the changes because we decrease some tiers and make a split.

In short:

• Changes will be online at the 31. January 2021
• This only concerns you if you update or change your tier.
• The tiers will from our point of view change like said in the following. Please note, that Patreon has it's own currency conversion rates. They don't use the current exchange rates. We calculated with Patreons.

Tip jar: 1$ = 1 €

Chooser: 4 $ = 5 €

Conspirator: 10 $ = 10 € (please read the following point about this tier!)

Real Talker: 20 $ = 18 €

Shaper of the Future: 25 $ = 23 €

• The Conspirator (10 $) gets a split. It will be 7 € and 10 €. The 7 € are rewarded with the drawings of Rosvo plus the lineworks and PSD-files. The 10 € are rewarded with the drawings, lineworks, PSD and Mini Shoots (Erocosplay). 
• All current Conspirators get updated to the 10 € tier. Again: Nothing changes for you. The price doesn't increase until you edit your pledge.
• All Patrons at the current 20$ (Real Talker) and 25$ (Shaper of the Future) have to check if they want to update their pledge because of the decrease!
• All tier names will change. The tier names will be:

1 € = Cat Nip

5 € = Wildcat

7 € = Cheetah

10 € = Puma

18 € = Jaguar

23 € = Tiger

• If you're not happy with the changes or Patreon, you can join Rosvos Pixiv Fanbox. Attention! The content there has to be posted under japanese censorship law, no voting rights and no extra role on Discord!
• Gumroad membership will start at the 1. March 2021
• If you feel treated unfair: Let us know! Write us a comment or a DM!

In long explanation

We discussed this change for quiet a while now. Perhaps you saw other artists doing it already but we were quiet unsure if it would be worth the trouble or not. We're not really saving a lot of money with the change. We know that our supporters are mostly from countries with USD as their currency and the exchange rate of Patreon is only a bit lower as PayPals. But we're doing it to safe fees if we get pledges from Europeans and to change some other things along the way.

We will make the change at the 31. January 2021. As soon as all updates are online, we will make a new post about it. Please check if you want to update your tier! The changes concerns only Patrons who edit their tier. If you stay in your tier, nothing changes.

First big change will be the 4$-tier. For those of you, who are supporting us since December 2018 know the story of this tier and we don't want to repeat this story again. With the currency change we have the one in a time opportunity from Patreon to increase the tier price again without the trouble from back then (man, that was a pain in the ass for us all). We feel like the time to increase this tier again has come because the rewards are consistently met and often exceeded.

The good news: If you're staying in the 4$-tier, nothing will change. You will still pay 4$. Only if you edit your pledge (to a higher or lower tier) or if you leave and join back, you have to pay the 5€ (what ever the equal amount on Patreon will be then in USD). 

Next in line is the current 10$-tier. We feel like some of you like it more if the drawings and cosplays are a bit more split up. That's why we decided to split this tier. If you're only interested in drawings and you want the lineworks and PSD-files (to make your combo of choice or something else), you join the new 7€-tier (Cheetah). If you want also the Mini-Shoots from the Erocosplay you choose the new 10€-tier (Puma). We feel like the Mini-Shoot is worth the increase of 0,50€ because the experience showed us that it's consistently more pictures (at least about 20 pics). Sometimes even with a story element. At the moment it's 9,50€ and we promised 10 pics. 

Attention: The current Patrons from the 10$ will be the new 10€ (Puma). Nothing changes for you. Only if you edit your pledge (to a higher or lower tier) or if you leave and join back, you have to pay the new price. The 7€ (Cheetah) tier will be new. If you only want the lineworks and PSD and safe a few coins, you have to choose actively the 7€ (Cheetah) tier.

The old 20$-tier gets a decrease to 18€ (Jaguar) (at the moment 19€). If you want to go along with this decrease you have to update your pledge. We decided the decrease because of the uncertainty of the punctuality in our rewards. Starting this week: We will announce in the last week of a month which cosplay is planned for the next month. This way you can decide if you want to stay or leave. If we can choose from different cosplays, we will make a quick poll out of it. 

The old 25$-tier gets a decrease to 23 € (Tiger) (at the moment 24€). If you want to go along with this decrease you have to update your pledge. We decided the decrease because of the decrease of the 18€-tier.

Beside all this we will update the Q-A in our About section and all infos in the tier-texts. 

We suggest you to check your tier at the 31. January 2021. As soon as all updates are done, we will do a post about it.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know via Direct Message (DM) or leave us a comment here. 

Finally I want to bring to your attention that if you're very unhappy with Patreon (but not with us), you should know that:

Rosvo has Pixiv Fanbox. You can join there too. But attention! Rosvo has to post his art under the japanese censorship law. Also you don't have voting rights for future pictures from the suggestions of the Tiger-tier and no extra Discord role on our Discord server. 

Also we want to start with Gumroad Membership at the 1. March 2021. There you will get our content too but also no voting rights and no extra role for Discord (except I can manage a work-around, I have to check this).

These are all the changes coming up in the next weeks. We hope everything goes smoothly but we can't promise it. We read the whole instruction of Patreon but the past showed us that they often don't think of particular problems. If something happens: We are sorry about this and please speak with us! Everyone of you is important to us. If you feel treated unfair while we're doing these changes, let us know!

Thank you all for your support and that you're doing all these changes with us!

Greetings,

Rosvo and Evee
