Change in Tiers!!! Please read :)
🕑 Added 2020-08-17 00:54:20 +0000 UTCHey guys!
This is a very important announcement concerning the Tiers, please take a moment to read it.
So the way my Tiers worked until now has been an issue to some for a while. Not everybody understands how to redeem their "old rewards" and many new patrons won't read the FAQ resulting in a lot of confused patrons messaging me or commenting with inquiries about the system.
Also, the "tailor-sending" of the old rewards was not an issue at first but as the number of patrons increases (yey! :D) it's also more and more difficult for me to send those tailored requests every 5th.
So I was hoping to simplify the system through my site, by allowing patrons to choose themselves their old rewards from my gallery/store using a promo code. I even have that programmed already by my developer, but since Patreon implemented its new "Patron Manager" this month, it ruined the way it was supposed to work -.-'
Considering all this, I figured it would be best to just plain simplify the Tiers to a more straightforward system. So from this term forward, the Tiers will be as follows:
$1 Access to my feed - Stays the same!
$5 1 Uncensored Picture of the current month of my choosing
$10 All the Monthly uncensored pictures - Stays the same!
$20 Last 2 Month's rewards
$30 Last 4 Month's rewards
$40 Last Year's rewards
$55 Last 2 Year's rewards
$75 All Old Rewards - Stays the same!
As you can see Tiers: $1, $10 and $75 DON'T CHANGE! That's the big majority of you. If you are subscribed to Any of these three Tiers you don't have to do anything!
Only the Tiers that included a specific selection of "old rewards" changed.
Things to Consider:
-For all "regular" patrons who received the last rewards on August 5th this changes will count after your next payment on September 1st, so you still have plenty of time to change to a different tier before that if needed. Bear in mind though that after the next 5th only the new Tiers will be available.
-Those new patrons who joined after last 5th and have been instantly charged one of the Tiers that will no longer be available, don't worry! I'll send you the rewards next 5th normally as I used to. But I ask you to please update your tier to one of the new ones before the next payment cycle (1st of September)
-Those who pledged to a $20 Tier which used to be "5 old pics of your choosing" will receive the new reward instead UNLESS they message me before the 5th expressing that they prefer to choose the 5 pics.
-For "specific" old pictures, patrons will have to use either Gumroad or my site (when finished) to get them. In this regard, I will probably implement an automatized "promo code" system for patrons to have a discount on their purchases.
-$40 and $55 Tiers are not based in a "calendar year" but rather count from the month of the pledge back. So if for example, you pledge to a $40 Tier in September you will get the last 12 months' rewards (until October of the previous year).
-Milestones' rewards stay the same as well as the Welcome Pack.
I apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause. I imagine this term may come with some confusion due to the change but it should be much simpler for both current and new patrons from this point forward as well as for me to manage.
I have already changed the Tiers, but will be adding more information and Images for each one in the descriptions at the top of the page.
Please feel free to message me with any specific doubts you may have about these new Tiers, I'll do my best to address them as soon as I can.
Thank you!

How far along are we on the milestone thing? Since it's been released i mean? Can't remember how long I've been here except since whenever the spidergwen one

I feel ya there. I am also a creator on here and all I require new Patrons to do is share a gmail address with me so I can share through Drive. Most of them don't do that then wonder why they don't have access :/

Hi Easton, I'll check your case now and PM you! :)
This is a good idea but can you please check your messages, I still have not gotten my monthly rewards, it is 8/16 and 11 days past the 5th
The changes make sense, especially for you on the administrative side. As a patron, I’d love to see a 50% Gumroad discount added to the $10 tier so we can grab those specific images for the same cost as the old system.
