[IMPORTANT] Patreon system change: Against my will and I hate it
Added 2017-12-02 18:31:51 +0000 UTCHello everyone, I'm saddened to tell you that the Patreon system for my page changed against my will to Upfront Payments. Which means; new people pledgding will be charged as soon as they pledge, paying for the rewards of the month, but also on the 1st for the rewards of next month. And then, like everyone, on the 1st of every month. Which is a litteral hell for me is that, before, people pledged during the month without paying yet, I was making the cosplays and the shoots and giving it to those who were done paying by the 1st of the next month. Now, people pay directly and will expect to get their rewards immediatly: thing that I can't give because I need the entire month to build up my reward packs. For those who are already pledging, nothing changes except if you up your pledge, you will be immediatly charged the difference. Patreon changed this behind my back, this month, and I cannot revert it. I messaged the support but they didn't answer me yet and who knows when I'll get an answer and if this answer will be positive. I will try to revery is but if I can't, I will be extremely disappointed. Even if Patreon wanted to switch to this method for everyonr on long term, I would need time to be able to adapt it and I do not appreciate being a test subject like that without having asked for it. Thank you for your understanding.

No one messaged me, it was weird looking in my patron manager so I messaged them, then only they told me it was changed to upfront payments ;(
