I didn’t blame you for a thing. I didn’t accuse you of extortion. I literally said it would seem that way for a new person looking in. The only thing I was disappointed in (AND I SAID IT) was the lack of interaction. I don’t read descriptions on pixiv. I wouldn’t call that interaction at. Literally if you said you had a Twitter at the start, that would’ve been fine. I can’t see some of this stuff on mobile. And then you insult me. Bro I wasn’t attacking you, I’m just confused. And the funniest part of it all, I never said anything about unsubbing. You being defensive is just throwing everything I’m saying for a loop.

Exactly what I suggested in the first place - unsubscribing my way doesn't suit you. But you've made it sounds like you didn't know what you felt disappointed in, is it payments (wanted double deal but accused in extortion), communication (is given free in pixiv, twitter) or content (implied there are no sketches while there are updated throughout the month). My tiers worth what they worth - it only takes to read and understand what's written. "I misunderstood what's monthly is and wanted to blame the creator" in the end of the day. 🤷‍♂️

I’ll accept what you say about the payments. Right now I’m not entirely sure how it all works. My point was making the sub feel worth it. Go down your fan box. You literally dont communicate on your main page outside of the monthly posts. Not sure what I’m expecting here anymore. I’m just gonna leave it there.

Soot

No. Here's as I see it: you see pixiv, you see previews at fanbox, you decide to sub, you pay instantly and get INSTANT access to a current post (JUNE in your case). If I release before July ends you'll get DOUBLE deal - the JUNE stuff + JULY stuff for a single payment. Isn't that correct? I used to do as you suggest, but it ended with some fans subbing every other month (12 months rewards for 6 payments) which is unfair for those who stay subbed every month (12 months rewards for 12 payments). I would have to offer everyone to do the same bc it would make sense (why pay 12 times if you can pay 6); same with older post and their expiration - why pay 24 times in 2 years if one can pay once and get 24 months worth? I would had to promote that as well. So instead I suggest follow pixiv for free and only pay me monthly to get a link once a month. IMHO you get exactly what you asked for: an early access of JUNE stuff, an early access to SKETCHES and WIPs, and a great deal of COMMUNICATION.

The thing about hostages doesn’t make sense either, because rather I like it or not, I’m still paying twice. I see a post that I like and I sub. I pay as soon as I sub. Then I have to wait for you to post it on the end or beginning of the month to see it. By that time a new month has begun and I have to pay again. Like I said though. I don’t care about the money part. That’s where you are getting mixed up. I just wanted updates or something. But I can already see this is a lost cause. I do thank you for hearing me out.

Soot

I’ve actually looked at all your posts. I’m not asking a questions for attention and I’m not ranting. I don’t understand why you would need to bring up money to talk to someone. I’m doing it because I talk to every artist I support. I even use translators to talk with them. If I have a question about what I pay for (yes for just $5), I’m gonna ask. What you’re saying is just rude.

Soot

Yeah, I don't sell interaction for $5 a month, sorry I wasn't clear in my posts, intro and forbidden DMs about that. Thanking for the link means you never bothered to check the post in the first place and started all this "hey stop working look at me" rant here. Thank you for the experience. NB all your bookmarks are shota hence the guesswork, sorry again.

🔥garikaliev🔥

⚡️⚡️⚡️Forgot an important point on holding hostages, ransom and extortion: once you pay, you get the existing link. But you're not sure on what the future brings - you UNSUB. Then LOOK and SEE the next month's PREVIEWS, exactly what this post above is all about. So after scrutinising the previews and understanding what that next month offers, you can subscribe AGAIN or just NOT. Example: this month you saw finished Taylor and sketched Kayla. Disappointed, you unsubscribed. Then imagine that 10 days later you see the previews for July - you're already unsubbed, you're not a hostage, you're able to look at previews first and decide is it worth is or not. You see the point here? No one have to pay automatically - you can check the posts as often as you please and unsub at any point, then look at previews first and think if you want to resume or stay away. Shortly, just check the offer first then pay only if you like the previews.

I’m not disappointed in the lack of shota. ~_~. I’m disappointed in the lack of content AND interaction as a whole. That’s my entire point here. But okay. It’s your deal dude. Thanks for the link have a good day.

Soot

Still not an extortion since you get to see the current stuff (otherwise would be 2 month for 1 pledge). Then the "older post" issue - why pay 12 month if there's an option to wait and pay once to see the whole year's worth - that's why "older and free" is PIXIV, no need to pay at all. Now the SKETCH part is a good point - you DO have the access ( see the post you've paid for - https://garikaliev.fanbox.cc/posts/2427767 ). Not sure I quite catch your drifts here, sorry - if you want me "saying hi" then sorry, highly introverted. If you want older art then you have the whole PIXIV. If you feel misguided on what you bought for those $5 - it's access to JUNE content and current SKETCHES & WIPs (pls check the post I've linked). I might allege you're more interested in shotacon - now that is a problem, you would definitely feel disappointed if you'd chose to pay every month bc I don't get to draw shota that much. Piece ✌️

Tbh I subbed for the previous art pieces, but you’re selling them at a ridiculous price. I stayed subbed beci like the art. I’m just saying that I wish subbing was worth it. I said “holding hostage” because this is my first month. I don’t know that it’s worth it. Holding hostage means that you won’t send out the art until the payment for that month is through. It sucks for me because I already paid, but I can’t even see the art from the previous month at the least. Then I’d have to pay again (still without seeing anything) to see what you post in the next pack. From a new person looking in, it feels like a jip. At least post status updates or something. Maybe a sketch. Idk. Just even saying hi would be nice.

Soot

That's exactly why I keep reminding people that I post for free after a few month. Why would you say "holding hostage" when I suggest following on pixiv? Why would you force yourself to subscribe to my FANBOX when "monthly" doesn't fit you? I'm grateful for the suggestion to post pics one by one but that would change the whole routine (working on one pic at a time in a tight deadline, taking "easy" requests only and finding more to "prepare" the pics for posts, also taking more risks for being banned on FANBOX) and change the tier prices also. If you don't want to support me monetarily please just don't. 🙏✨

🔥garikaliev🔥

Seems like I might as well wait for them to be posted to your pixiv since I'm waiting here as well. lol

Soot

Post them throughout the month rather in one at once at the end of the month? It just feels like you're holding people hostage. I can't even see the pics to determine if I want to continue following.

Soot

I work all month through and collect the finished pics in a folder. At the end of the month (or on the 1st of the next month) fans get to see the results. You seem to have some suggestions though?

🔥garikaliev🔥

Wait... so do you only post at the end of the month?
