Piracy
Added 2024-05-18 02:14:27 +0000 UTCHey. Someone is leaking all of my comics. The paid ones, I haven't posted elsewhere.
I make everything ever available for anyone to drop in for $12. If an older comic or two gets posted, ok, whatever, sometimes I think it raises awareness I/this place exist. This is an extremely generous offering, I'm ok with signing up for a month and grabbing 'em, I don't gate access by membership window.
But this many of them? The paid ones? In series? This miffs me. Here is why:
If all my stuff is free and it's not worth getting a membership, then it's not worth my time to run this patreon and go through the toil of producing on a weekly release schedule, is it?
Maybe this leads to a big influx of people who become aware of me. If that happens, great. You're in the clear. Except, none of the posts were backlinked to here like the other ones, were they?
I'm not gonna tell pirates to stop pirating (impossible). I can't be bothered with fingerprinting individual assets to determine who (endless cat and mouse). I'm not gonna tell you what to do. But here's the deal: if you like my work enough to pirate it, then you probably have a vested interest in me continuing. Keep posting, take away my incentive to share my work, that's that. I'm done sharing it. (maybe not done producing it, but definitely sharing it).
That's the deal.
Being a fetish author in public, running this patreon - this is a not insignificant personal risk. If it's not worth the extra time, legal hassle, etc, I'm gone. I have zero interest in participating in a community which doesn't operate with me in good faith.
Your move. I'm watching. Both what you post, and what effect your behavior has on this account. Good luck.

2024-05-21 20:44:54 +0000 UTCI hope you don't get discouraged. There are bad people lurking on the internet. I saw a story on Youtube where a family was about to go on their dream cruise vacation, only to discover that someone used their social media information to CANCEL their cruise without their knowledge. An anonymous person had hurt strangers just because they enjoyed doing it. I love your work SimpleGreenBag and a community of fans are supporting you too. We want your stories fresh as they are published. Take care.

2024-05-21 09:59:02 +0000 UTCAlso, if it's the website I'm thinking of there's a "Report Gallery" button, which you can use to submit DMCA complaint and have them taken down, but I appreciate it's a pain in the ass to do so for every single gallery. Do you have any trusted friends (irl or online) who could help flag some on your behalf? They'd need your full legal name unfortunately. I'd be willing to help but I totally understand why you wouldn't want to share that kind of info with random strangers online

2024-05-20 15:53:17 +0000 UTCAww damn, I'm so sorry to hear that :( I've also had my patreon content pirated and scraped by bots so I know how much is sucks. You are one of my very favourite vore creators, and the best value for money I've ever seen, so it's tragic that anyone would want to pirate your content of all people. I know it's not much but I'll keep subbing for as long as you're making content, and I'm sure that many others are happy to continue supporting you as well.

2024-05-20 15:52:56 +0000 UTCdoing so requires me to provide a _ton_ of personal info. This, I think, is the reason the site has so much content.

2024-05-20 04:05:48 +0000 UTCI'm really sorry to hear this. I've seen your older work posted here and there, but thought your newer stories were somewhat safer. Is there any way you can enclose some kind of data within your images that might eventually expose any theft? Is it worth asking the website owners to remove anything linked to you?

2024-05-19 11:27:34 +0000 UTCUnbelievably shitty behavior on part of the pirates. Pirating from corpos is fine, but directly from an artist? Shameful.

2024-05-19 01:29:36 +0000 UTCYeah where was it posted, if we get enough people to report it we can likely get it taken down

2024-05-18 17:28:31 +0000 UTCEven pirates uses to follow a code, now it's just stealing, also is there a way for us to Mas report them?

2024-05-18 08:51:47 +0000 UTCThis makes zero sense to me either. Whoever you are please stop before you ruin it for us all. This cat isn't asking much and you're basically stealing from them and pushing them to the point of not wanting to continue sharing their work. Please don't ruin what we have here for whatever your reasons are.

2024-05-18 05:28:06 +0000 UTCI don't understand why you would pay for something and then give it to others for free like this? You're not Robin Hood, you're not giving to the poor. You're just risking this community phasing out due to artists not wanting to make new content.

2024-05-18 04:22:33 +0000 UTCPlease stop whoever you are dont ruin what we have here. One of the best vore artists in the world is someone we should be grateful for.
