Easter Break
Added 2023-04-08 10:01:00 +0000 UTCHey S&P Fam!
With our transition to full time happening, as well as having Australian Easter this weekend, and Greek easter the following, we have quite a busy week. So we've decided to take next week off from YouTube and we will return to normal schedule the week after.
Patreon will still have 1 GoT (5x8) and 1 ATLA (3x2) scheduled for mid next week for Super Soldier & Demi God Tiers and GoT (5x4) and ATLA (2x18) for Warrior tier.
We appreciate everyone's support, Happy Easter, enjoy some chocolate haha and we'll see you guys soon
- Love Spartan & Pudgey

they may not “work” for us but that’s just semantics. The rest of what was said was true. We do financially support them especially now that they have left their other jobs.

2023-04-17 05:41:09 +0000 UTCThat’s not true at all and you’re speaking from a position of privilege. With all the subscriptions and extraneous costs that people pay for across multiple platforms these days an additional 8.50-11$ is not insignificant. Especially when the output/value received is inconsistent. I see both sides of this debate but it’s ignorant to say the fee means nothing or couldn’t be spent elsewhere.

2023-04-17 05:35:21 +0000 UTCHoly smokes are people just disrespectful and needlessly toxic. If you have a job, you earn vacation, usually if it's a full time job, PAID vacation... do you not? This is their job, why are they not entitled to the same as you and I and most anyone else who has a full time job. Need someone to explain to me what I'm missing. And fair warning, if you needlessly rhetorically punch, I will rhetorically punch back. Just because I'm trying to make a clearly obvious point doesn't mean it's an invitation to be a fool.

2023-04-10 23:56:19 +0000 UTCSorry, I realize now my comment could have been misread by how I worded it. I was referring to how there was no need to throw insults at you (and maybe you took this the opposite way? maybe it is ME who is misreading however), but as I said before my statement applies to the entire patreon platform, I am not trying to single anyone out.
SuddenImpulse
2023-04-10 22:06:50 +0000 UTCWell I’m not a girl so her calling me a tramp doesn’t bother me lol but it shows how desperate she is to hurt others just because we disagree. Their lack of intelligence is really showing and it’s sad. I’d be embarrassed if I were them.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 21:59:21 +0000 UTCI am definitely way more well read than you are lmao you’re welcome to dm me if you wanna have a proper debate and let’s see who can come up with logical arguments. I highly doubt you’ll accept the challenge but I’m just letting you know I’m more than willing. And you wanna talk about intelligence and perception? The fact that you haven’t realized that my name is a joke and I’m probably not actually a girl shows how unperceptive you are lmao look at my name and say it out loud again and again until you get it.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 21:57:30 +0000 UTCrecording is easy, editing ahead more then we already have is not. we tried to edit further ahead and didn't manage. there is a lot more that goes on behind the scenes than people realise
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-10 20:33:26 +0000 UTCI attacked and insulted no one but instead was literally called a bunch ugly shit right above, and specifically by name. But internet tough guys will do their thing. The good news is, it seems Hardhome was dropped ahead of schedule (now instead of mid-week) so yay! Deft move from S&P.
Julien
2023-04-10 19:16:50 +0000 UTCPeople are free to openly discuss and disagree, but lets not be throwing around personal attacks and namecalling. Its wholly unnecessary. If you can't engage with someone in a decent way, just don't. People are paying for this platform, and have the right to interact with S&P and others on here, but we aren't going to have people flying attacks and namecalling at each other because then the environment on here will not be friendly or conducive to an environment people want to interact in. If it keeps happening the aggressive posts might get deleted. This goes for everyone, not anyone specific.
SuddenImpulse
2023-04-10 19:13:07 +0000 UTCHardhome was always releasing during their break, and is up now.
SuddenImpulse
2023-04-10 19:05:58 +0000 UTCThey do not work for you lmao. Let us make that point abundantly clear here and now. Not sure where you got that idea. They can go back to their IRL full time jobs any time, although obviously they wouldn't prefer to. As far as Julien, they have a right to comment just as much as anyone else here does, regardless of their opinion or position, so lets just respect that basic fact and not get into attacks/insults. If someone can't handle a decent convo with someone else without resorting to namecalling, they should just leave it alone, that applies to everyone.
SuddenImpulse
2023-04-10 19:01:06 +0000 UTCenjoy your easter break guys! producing high-quality content is only sustainable when you take time off to enjoy life.

2023-04-10 16:04:45 +0000 UTCFolks, creators do not work for you just because you chose to support them. Even in the aggregate, we are not their boss. That's not how this relationship works. But that so many here believe so, explains A LOT. It's something I just realized. This doesn't mean we can't criticize! But knowing this reality affects how you approach complaints. As a creator in another realm, who knows a lot of other creators, paid or unpaid, I will die on this hill: S&P are *not* your employees because you chose to support their content.
Julien
2023-04-10 15:18:05 +0000 UTCNo, creators do not work for you (even in the aggregate) just because you chose to support them. You are not their boss. That's not how this relationship works. But that you and many others here believe so, explains A LOT. I'll ignore the unwarranted, gratuitous personal insults. Y'all love to talk shit to strangers online. One day you'll fuck w the wrong guy and get what's coming to you. Keep at it.
Julien
2023-04-10 15:03:53 +0000 UTCYes! Season 3 just aired and I think you two would enjoy it.

2023-04-10 11:53:40 +0000 UTCDamn, with the whirlwinds of emotions I’ve gone through in this comment section, I’ve almost forgotten. Happy Easter S&P. Hope you guys enjoy yourselves.

2023-04-10 11:26:01 +0000 UTCEstablished YouTubers do this for free content.
Brian Clancy
2023-04-10 11:22:32 +0000 UTCIf theres a holiday coming up why not record an extra video so the content for your fans doesnt lack? If you know youre going to need a “break” every few weeks then you should be planning ahead considering its a monthly fee not a per- video fee. This is why youre receiving the backlash, and why the comments calling you out are receiving so many likes. With respect.
Brian Clancy
2023-04-10 11:21:41 +0000 UTCWhat are you talking about? They literally do work for us😂Do you think them being able to go full time on Patreon was a wish granted by some fucking magical wizard? WE PAY THEM FOR ENTERTAINMENT. And I will continue to pay a subscription monthly because they are honestly my favorite reactors and I also promise you they won’t miss my subscription. It’s how the real world works buddy, not the fantasy you have made up in your mind. We are allowed to voice our frustrations to the CREATOR and they may or may not respond. But whiny little babies like yourself that swear your defending them from something that doesn’t have to be defended is weirdo behavior. We speak to the CREATOR. Not sissy baby’s named Julien…
David J
2023-04-10 11:19:22 +0000 UTCHi, sounds like your winge-ing! Your mouth is moving and words are coming out.winge-ing about two novice YouTubers making a go at reacting to a TV show. it's not Netflix.you do know these two are sitting in a bedroom watching TV..I have a suggestion, to get the most bang for your buck, get an onlyfan account, they have scheduled content
Stannis loves grammar.
2023-04-10 11:09:43 +0000 UTCA little bit offended that you would refer to season 5 and beyond as 'when it gets interesting' lol. But that's just because I love season 3 and 4 so much. Ofc as a show or channel goes on, it builds up steam and more people discover it so that's probably also something to consider. There are still lots of great moments in upcoming seasons though. The reactions and comments to the last two seasons are sure to be 'interesting.'
Munir
2023-04-10 10:57:25 +0000 UTCNot all criticism is warranted and the extreme bitching here over one or two fewer videos for a single week is disgusting. Just two weeks ago the output was exceeding average and everyone was gushing ("you are spoiling us!"). If you can celebrate that as extra, why can't you tolerate the dip and have some grace, without the entitled, insufferable bitching? And how revealing that you should tie the criticism to this being their job. Guess what, this may be their job but they don't work for you.
Julien
2023-04-10 10:42:02 +0000 UTCRead more because you lack knowledge. You need more understanding how the minds of people work, and how life work. You act like you're in grade school. You just mentioned your bill problems, that's why I'm here defending those who are poor. You're a complete moron. Get lost little girl. I got no time for noobs in life.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 10:04:19 +0000 UTCLook at yourself Jenny Troll. You're pretty much stressing yourself out.lmao I'm not even bitching. I'm explaining. I'm defending those who complain. Your just here making problems. Get lost little girl. I got no time for people like you. Tramp.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 10:02:31 +0000 UTC@Junriel Roa. If you're so miserable then leave. I don't have a problem with their patreon. They're literally just taking a break. Your main argument is "we're not rich like you" lol sorry I'm not a dumbass like you who won't do anything about it. I'm not rich either but I spend money on things I like if I know it won't break the bank. You said yourself that there are a lot of other YouTubers to choose from and you chose S&P because you really like them. So if spending $8-12 a month is breaking the bank for you then you need to seriously reevaluate your life, make some changes, stop bitching. I've been here since last summer. We are all doing fine before this channel received an influx of whiney babies like you. You are most certainly welcome to leave and you will not be missed.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 06:09:22 +0000 UTC@Junriel Roa "Go read more books or something" lmao wtf was that?? That literally meant nothing coming from you. Also you already brought up the "your rich" thing earlier and I responded but you were probably too lazy to check through your comments to see that. Or too dumb to understand what I said. Who knows, could be both. I'm poor as fuck. I have $60 in my bank account rn, electric bill is due on Friday and I'm one month behind on my phone bill yet you don't hear me complaining like a little bitch like you.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 06:03:35 +0000 UTCWe’ll Jenny, I’m glad your rich, most of us aren’t. There’s a lot of YouTubers out there to subscribe to, but we chose this because we like this channel, so our complaints are reasonable if it doesn’t fulfill what was said on the description of what we pay for. Go read more books or something
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 05:53:52 +0000 UTCShut your pipes Jenny Troll. You obviously don’t understand the reasons to the complaints. So there’s no point in explaining to you. All you’re doing is adding more negativity. We don’t want people like you here adding more negativity.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 05:49:50 +0000 UTCThey’re literally on a break you brainless twat. They have two posts explaining why they’re not posting as much and that they’re in the process of hiring an editor so they can make more content. They post multiple times a week when they’re on their regular schedule. Your argument is idiotic and deeply flawed. Sit down and stay down.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 05:45:11 +0000 UTCHow tf does that make me entitled?? I’m not demanding expectations from them 😂😂 pipe down and stay seated. You’re done here.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 05:42:43 +0000 UTCThe only entitled loser here is you (the person that has a problem with people voicing their frustrations)
David J
2023-04-10 05:25:19 +0000 UTCYour have no logic. If I’m subscribed to a streaming service to watch a show, I know that there’s a schedule to the show and most likely at least 1 episode a week at the same time every week. So if I’m subscribing to a certain network to watch only 1 certain show, would I keep subscribing after that show is no longer producing episodes? No, right? Ok. The only pointless discussion is the one your trying to make. This isn’t to bash S&P but you literally just made the most idiotic comment I’ve seen in a while.
David J
2023-04-10 05:23:29 +0000 UTCSo a pointless discussion. Much like when shows go on hiatus , people do as well. To complain is to frustrate yourself. If you don't like it, don't subscribe.
Stannis loves grammar.
2023-04-10 03:57:02 +0000 UTCToo many entitled losers in the comments. If you’re mad because they’re taking a vacation here and there then don’t subscribe to their patreon. Take your negativity elsewhere. It’s literally less than $10 a month. If that’s too much for you then you need to get your priorities straightened out. I’m poor as fuck but you don’t hear me complaining. Y’all need to chill tf out.
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-10 02:12:22 +0000 UTCI actually don’t mind the wait. I’m just defending those complaining and why they have the rights. As far as the waiting to subscribe, it’s happening a lot I bet, I’m pretty sure. I mean they’re a lot of YouTubers out there. You can’t subscribe to all in Patreon, so I’m pretty most wait for certain times, like when it gets interesting. Like most people here. Most subscribed to Patreon due to season 5 and above.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 02:09:35 +0000 UTCI agree with your point about Hardhome, but where are you getting that most people wait to subscribe aside from your personal experience? I'm here because I'm too impatient to wait for Youtube and I feel like that's why most are here. If you or anyone else is capable of waiting for channels to upload most of a show before watching, why not just wait a bit longer for it all to be on Youtube?
Munir
2023-04-10 01:06:47 +0000 UTCWe’ll then you just contradict yourself. 4 episodes per week by that amount is equivalent to 2 episodes per week at 8$.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-10 00:00:43 +0000 UTCI’m telling you, most of these complaints wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for Hardhome as the next episode. And as far as those other YouTube creators are concerned, most people are not Patreons, but instead wait for certain months to subscribe and watch it all at once. I did that with Blindwave. Once a week is not worth it if it’s only one show I’m interested in. But that’s the point. People subscribed thinking that they paid for consistent episodes of 2-3/week, not once a week.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-09 23:52:09 +0000 UTCI'm a little surprised that some are disappointed in the content output. I've also watched and been a Patron to a LOT of reactors and honestly most of them only uploaded 1 episode per week. Maybe they would be reacting to more shows at a time but it's rare for me to care about more than 1 show a channel is watching anyway. I'd love for some of these commenters to point me to the channels they're watching that upload more and can compare to the quality of these reactions (genuinely would love to find more). Maybe we just watched different people or something but I've been a Patron to plenty of channels that uploaded less frequently and had weaker reactions. I'll admit I was bummed last break you guys took (mainly because it happened right after I pledged) but I felt like it was made up for with more content upon return.
Munir
2023-04-09 23:34:54 +0000 UTCI can guarantee you that a lot of these complaints are due to the fact that you left us hanging on one of the most anticipated episode of GOT. If you left us with Hardhome available, I’m pretty sure that all of us, if not most of us would’ve been content. It was heightened by that fact. Just bad timing, especially after you guys just had a recent vaca too.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-09 22:26:21 +0000 UTCHappy Easter, followed you here cause you have the best reactions on YouTube right now!
Pogger White
2023-04-09 20:51:34 +0000 UTCThis is basically their job now. Criticism is expected
David J
2023-04-09 20:47:52 +0000 UTCThat's exactly it but they are grossly and dishonestly making it about money. Nobody spends a sum they consider meaningful on such frivolous entertainment as reaction videos. If you are here, $8.50 means nothing to you. Just be honest about the fact that you're really just pissed about having to wait.

2023-04-09 20:30:39 +0000 UTCEp 8 of GOT is likely filmed already, but after all the gross, entitled hullabaloo here, it's gonna be an awkward return in front the camera after the break 😬😂
Julien
2023-04-09 20:28:32 +0000 UTCHappy Easter! Some of these people are having withdrawals they need more SP injected in them.
Danny
2023-04-09 19:03:20 +0000 UTCHappy Easter you guys, have a blessed week, and enjoy your time off! I am dying to see episode 8 reaction. Can’t wait for the rest of the series too!

2023-04-09 17:50:05 +0000 UTCHappy Easter guys! Enjoy your time off and good luck with the full time transition.
James K
2023-04-09 17:41:25 +0000 UTCYou understand what "given the slow down in the last week or so" means, right? We are on the same page with regard to the silliness of the complaints here, so please get out of my hair and go pick a fight with someone else.

Telling me to be quiet when you people are being grossly unfair to the creators, go fuck yourself for real. Btw I’m poor as fuck and yet you don’t hear me complaining about a subscription that costs 8 fucking dollars! Get a job you low life.

Locke
2023-04-09 15:22:14 +0000 UTCyep. 100%. who was that creator by the way who you referenced wanted to finish before HOTD
dejam irbaj
2023-04-09 15:04:06 +0000 UTCLol exactly. I subbed to someone last year who was dropping episodes every day, but that was because she was racing to finish before HOTD started. That was extremely lucky! In my experience, creators are considerably LESS consistent than S&P have been. I'm subbed to people who will release two episodes in a row, and then the third one in like 3 weeks - all without any warning. S&P put out 2-3 episodes a week, *consistently*. Ok, for one week, it's gonna be a single episode. And they warn us in advance. Cue: "whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Ridiculous.
Julien
2023-04-09 14:57:24 +0000 UTCThese are the most transparent creators I have ever seen. Just a week ago everyone was praising them for consistently keeping us updated and seeking our thoughts on running this place. I get the disappoinment of having to wait a few more days but damn, some of y'all are being so grossly unfair.
Julien
2023-04-09 14:40:13 +0000 UTCit's been 2-3 a week on average, excluding this easter week.
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 14:33:01 +0000 UTCWe are not trying to stretch out GoT. I dont think people realise an average GoT episode takes 1.5h to record and 5-8 hours to edit. given we manage another show and recently had a 3rd show, as well as a lot of behind the scenes work people dont see AND working 2 jobs (until now) we cannot upload much faster than we do with our man power. this is precicely why our recent announcement stated we are looking for an editor to help us out so we are in the position to produce more GoT content overall. we appreciate everyones patience and support 😊
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 14:31:38 +0000 UTCthere is no option to suspend for a week or we'd use it. Transitioning to full time so we can produce content long term entails a lot of behind the scene work. And yes we charge a monthly fee for a subscription that clearly states we will maintain early access to youtube and uncut reactions, which we fulfil. that said, we wish you all the best 👍🏼
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 14:24:14 +0000 UTCThey have uploaded on weekends before. And given the slow down in the last week or so (especially in contrast to 3 weeks ago when there were 3x a week), it was a reasonable expectation. My post was not a complaint. I stated at the outset that personally I don't care. It was advice. I find the complaints largely silly but if you wanna avoid them in the future, this is one way.
Julien
2023-04-09 14:02:14 +0000 UTCLame, unsubbing. Yall understand you charge a monthly fee right?
Brian Clancy
2023-04-09 13:14:46 +0000 UTCRight like sorry for critiquing something I pay for😂…..I have watched plenty of other patreons for GOT so I don’t think we are being that unreasonable in the frustrations from all the time off
Mhalefit
2023-04-09 13:04:20 +0000 UTCYup same
Haseenudeen
2023-04-09 12:19:24 +0000 UTCalso people who put out 4 episodes a week usually charge around 12 to 15, they only charge 8. thats way less than their counterparts
dejam irbaj
2023-04-09 11:26:34 +0000 UTCExactly, I wanna remain a patreon but for 1 video a week I’ve decided to go back to watching on youtube
Sasha
2023-04-09 10:48:21 +0000 UTCenjoy it guys, well deserved!
dejam irbaj
2023-04-09 10:02:33 +0000 UTC@Jenny Troll. Be quiet, not all of us are rich like you. And his argument is legit. He makes a good point. Don't add fuel to the fire, especially since it doesn't concern you rich folks.

Sasha
2023-04-09 09:05:13 +0000 UTCsame, I've unsubscribed this will be my last month
Sasha
2023-04-09 09:02:51 +0000 UTCThey typically don’t upload on weekends so idk why you or others had that expectation
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-09 09:01:07 +0000 UTCOr how about you just don’t come back at all because nobody wants that kind of negative petty attitude around here 🤷🏻♂️
Jenny Tolls
2023-04-09 08:53:36 +0000 UTCwe dont usually upload GoT today, as its a sunday for us. so that expectation shouldn't be there. regardless of time off or not this is the weekend for us.
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 08:06:01 +0000 UTCmost of those youtube creators have editors, which we are looking to get ourselves to make content creation more seamless. we are still a smaller channel in its building phase
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 08:01:18 +0000 UTCwe have been quite transparent when taking time off. We have some uploads scheduled and we let you guys know as soon as we knew what we were doing. This is very much the building phase of the channel so there has been a lot of interruptions.... especially with have 2 jobs. This should all be taken care of in the future as we build the channel, get editors and have our systems down pat. It's very much been just trying to keep up with our schedule, rather than being ahead. Now that we are full time, this can change.
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2023-04-09 07:58:10 +0000 UTCI think I am going to do that as well. Wont be paying for months

AG
2023-04-09 00:17:51 +0000 UTCThat’s just $5 off in comparison to NetFlex or Hulu, and that’s plenty of content. I’m glad you’re rich, but not many of us are. Don’t forget to consider the poor before trying insulting us.
Junriel Roa
2023-04-08 23:40:21 +0000 UTCI feel like that’s the case too. A lot of YouTubers got their fame with GOT. Once that’s done, it’s bye bye.

2023-04-08 22:50:11 +0000 UTCI gotta say it is annoying they’re taking a break without giving us content for the week (which we know its already been filmed) while we’re right at the end of season 5 of GoT where things always get juicy as we know. But in their defense, they don’t take breaks often. I’ve been watching them on patreon since last summer and I’ve literally only seen them take 3 breaks. 2 of which have been very recently so that’s why it may seem often but it is not. I get that it’s frustrating but take it easy on them guys.

2023-04-08 22:00:22 +0000 UTC100%! Thank you for everything you give us. Enjoy your time off! ❤️
thank u next
2023-04-08 21:43:56 +0000 UTCWe told people very much in advance that we will be taking that time off and set the expectation that there woildnt be any content. It was up to the individual to decide if they would support us that month or not. We understand other creators might plan ahead to still have uploads (which we did... although they are reduced) but we can only do so many edits in a week to cover that current week and the following week. There is a lot more than editing to this job that a lot of you don't get to see. As per our previous post, we are looking at getting some editors to help us out with the load. This will assist with planning ahead when we take breaks. But just know, to have any kind of uploads here on Patreon or YouTube.... there is still work involved that we have to attend to... even if we are on "holiday" or "break". Therefore, although we strive to have content ready in the future... there will be times with no content. We will always be transparent. We do appreciate everyone's support and are forever grateful at how amazing and understanding the community has been! Please just remember how hard we are working on our end... and that not every situation is a clear cut as it seems. 💜❤️

2023-04-08 21:36:21 +0000 UTCLol this is entirely frivolous entertainment. I don't believe for a fraction of a second that $8.50 is "a lot of money" to literally anyone here. If $8.50 is a lot of money to you, you are spending that money on the wrong thing if you're here. Nobody for who $8.50 is a lot of money spends that on... early access or full reactions videos on Patreon. It's a fake argument.

2023-04-08 21:18:08 +0000 UTCI haven't seen anyone being disrespectful, rude or negative. I think people should be allowed to voice their opinions without being called negative. I personally said that I really enjoy them and that I think they are allowed to take breaks, but that I think they should plan ahead for this in the future. For some people, the price for being a member is nothing, but for others it's a lot of money. Most people still want to support them, because they really enjoy the content, but last time they took a break they were gone for 3 weeks, with no content, and people still paid full price. I think it's valid that people get to voice their opinion on things they spend their money on, and as long as everyone is respectful it's okay to have discussions and disagree on things.
Tinths
2023-04-08 21:03:21 +0000 UTCExactly! They are so transparent and set expectations ahead of time. It would be one thing if they skipped weeks of uploading, then came back 2 weeks later and said "Oh sorry, we decided to take a vacation. We're back now!" when they have loyal patrons, but that's not what happens at all. I respect them :)
thank u next
2023-04-08 20:05:02 +0000 UTCI personally don't care but this may be useful for future reference: more than anything, I think it's the *timing* of this announcement that has some people riled up. It comes after a noticeable slowdown, was dropped *in lieu* of an upload, and also before the end run of the season. People were expecting GOT today, and instead got this. I think if you'd announced this stuff immediately after an upload (i e., right after ep 7) instead of as a replacement for today's upload, it would have gone over better. Just a thought...
Julien
2023-04-08 19:53:51 +0000 UTCHave fun guys you've earned it. Can't wait for the rest of the show.
Dani
2023-04-08 19:40:26 +0000 UTCRight not to mention that for the $8.50 tier, that comes to about 27 cents a day. I understand being excited and having anticipation but jeez. It's as if people think these two just sit at their computers all day long and don't have real lives to live. They're people, like you said! Again, I get being excited. I look forward to the videos too! But I appreciate the effort they put in, the time and consideration it takes to make thus stuff and the fact that they are very transparent with us.

2023-04-08 19:21:41 +0000 UTCThese are the 2 extremes. People that always defend the creator no matter what and the people that always complain. All of the normal people do neither.
Shawn Brink
2023-04-08 19:11:53 +0000 UTCIgnore any negative comments. I don't know why when it comes to creators that people seem to forget PTO (paid time off) is a thing. Would you rather your favorite creators neglect their work/life balance and give you tired/frustrated reactions? Or would you rather see refreshed/enthusiastic reactions? Some of these people would complain either way. If you don't want to treat Spartan/Pudgey as people and instead as some slot machine that spits out reactions videos, then you're better off leaving. Keep this community positive/respectful :) 🙏
thank u next
2023-04-08 18:55:44 +0000 UTCIdc this will be a comment people don’t like but as a person who has watched a lot of GOT reactors patreon’s and I mean pretty much all of them, u guys really are trying to stretch this out it’s kinda annoying y’all only have 1 got scheduled but hey I know I’m in the minority it is what it is

2023-04-08 18:42:51 +0000 UTCI will admit I don't get this mindset. $8.5 is the price of a beer at my local bar. It's gone in minutes. For that same amount, we get anywhere from 8-12 GOT reactions, which comes out to $1 per video *at most.* It's wild to me that anyone would "feel duped" because for one month, they get maybe two fewer vids than usual. I think complaints like these are really just about eagerness to watch. Basically, people are disappointed that they have to wait. Which is understandable! But instead of just saying that, they frame it in terms of money. It's kinda fucked up.
Julien
2023-04-08 18:36:36 +0000 UTCNo one said that they shouldn't get days off, but that they should plan ahead for breaks like these. Especially since they are charging such a high price for their memberships. I really like them, and enjoy their content, but this is the second month in a very short time that they've had an extended break with little to no content, but they still charge the same amount.
Tinths
2023-04-08 18:28:58 +0000 UTCWell to be fair, they are always very communicative about their creative process and if I'm not mistaken both have full time jobs on top of the content they record and put out. (a lot of creators only put out one reaction video per show a week and we get multiple episodes, sometimes more than two a show). Also, this stuff takes a loooong time and when holidays and family things come up, I think that takes priority. When they don't have those kinds of things to do, I think they're very consistent. Everyone knows that come winter/spring months (in most places) holidays and things tend to occur more often. They're also getting ready to start doing things differently as they're going full time for content creating so I think them taking a break before that kicks off is fine. I do understand your viewpoint though as a paying viewer. I just personally, choose to cut them some slack considering they're usually consitent and they engage with us a lot to keep us in the loop. Not something I can say for a lot of creators.
kelly
2023-04-08 18:27:34 +0000 UTCDo you get days off at your job by chance? Why can't they?
AddictedToDepression
2023-04-08 18:23:52 +0000 UTCI also think they deserve a break too. But I’m a little shocked in the lack of content in the last 2ish weeks and since announcing they’re going full time. It seems like it’s less frequent uploads now
TallTyrionLannister
2023-04-08 17:39:58 +0000 UTCSame i rly like them and their content and for the higher patreon price i hope the one break almost per month thing turns into planning for it in advance now after they are full time. Also dont wanna sound negative just saying cause i look forward to these videos
Trokdrew
2023-04-08 17:27:10 +0000 UTCWell, yeah.. 2 videos. And for those who only watch GoT (and from polls, that seems to be the majority), that means it's only 1.
Tinths
2023-04-08 16:57:30 +0000 UTCI’m kind of glad this break is coming now. Because you guys tend to take a break after each season. And season 5 is quite a lot of action so for me this is much better then a break after episode 10. Because season 6 is my favorite. Going from 5 X 10 to 6 X 1 with no break vs going from 5x8 to 5 x 9 is great for me! Because usually episode 10 and episode 1 are very exciting. I’m sure not everyone agrees with that. It’s just my personal opinion. Happy Easter

2023-04-08 16:56:25 +0000 UTCTo be fair they did say they have already recorded and have releases ready for midweek.
I❤️movies&tvshows
2023-04-08 16:52:48 +0000 UTCI don't mean to sound negative, but with the price we pay on patreon (i have never had to pay this much for any other creators on patreaon, and that's just to get early access), you do seem to take breaks often. Of course, there's nothing wrong with taking breaks, but other creators usually plan ahead and film some extra videos, so ppl can still get videos while they're on their break. I think you should start to plan for this in the future, so ppl don't feel like they're getting duped.

2023-04-08 16:05:00 +0000 UTCAh happy Easter but I’ve subbed to Patreon during both of the breaks you’ve taken 😭
