Should I go "Per-month"?
Added 2017-12-16 19:17:31 +0000 UTCHey folks,
So... I noticed a lot of "jumpers" exploiting the "Per creation" mode by quickly becoming patron, access the content. Grab it. And get out so they don't get charged. This would not happen if I were "per Month", because once you become patron you can't jump out without paying for the first month.
I'm frankly not cool with people getting in-out to grab content and not pay a dime for what you guys are being charged for.
I originally wanted to go "Per creation" in case I had to take a long break, so I wouldn't charge anyone during that time.
But Patreon has recently added a "pause" mode and a "customer service" feature to creators, which allows me to easily reimburse and pause charges if need be, which was not the case in the past.
Because of this, and the thiefs quickly jumping in-out to steal the content you guys are paying for. I am seriously considering going "per Month".
But I don't want to do this without your opinion and general approval.
With that in mind, I'm making this pool so that you can decide what should be done about this.
Note: Should the vote be in favor to switching to "per month" I will only make that change in the beginning of January as most of you have already been charged with a creation this month. I wouldn't want the transition to double charge you guys, so rest assured that I would only do this next month.
Please vote and let me know what you think should be done.
