[Announce] Charge up front
Added 2018-02-02 07:44:48 +0000 UTCI enable the charge up front feature on my Patreon this month (I didn't had the option to do it before) which mean that new patreons will be charged as soon that they pledged.
I do that in order to avoid fake accounts and people deleting their pledges right before the end of the month (and usually re-pledging after).
It's a relief for me because the situation with fake accounts was becoming a bit out of hand. To give you an idea, about 80 fake accounts attempt to pledge to my Patreon last month. That's something.
On another note, the Patreon work well enough so I can pay my rent and eat, so I'm pretty happy about this! It's still not what I would call financial stability but I'm closer every month.
I think it's time for me to try the next step of my Patreon which is 3 comic pages a month and about 6 fan art a month!

It's fine, it was just there was a lot of fluctuations and scam so I had to do something!
2018-05-05 08:15:44 +0000 UTCThank you! I was one of those guys but not by choice, sometimes the end of the month charge falls within the middle my payperiod so it sucks when i have to cancel and i get paid 3 days later. :(

2018-05-04 21:22:51 +0000 UTCYeah, I've been waiting that since I open the Patreon, I don't have to manually verify every suspicious account anymore. Peace! At last!
2018-02-02 23:03:49 +0000 UTCHehe, yeah. I think most of it must be bots even if I can't figure out why people would setup bots to automaticaly pledge to mature content on Patreon (apparently these accounts were pledging to all the mature content they can grab).
2018-02-02 23:02:11 +0000 UTCWell, you've got quite a solid amount who are genuine...so screw those guys. At least now you've got that little bit of extra insurance now.
2018-02-02 19:48:52 +0000 UTCWow, 80 fake accounts are really bad o.o Mean!
