Hypnosis Content Update

Meesh

That's not my comic, that's Sethpup's. You can find his Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/sethpup

Michael Byrd

It was called Pride Fest with a character named Seth

Meesh

Pride story? I'm afraid I'm not sure which comic you're talking about.

Michael Byrd

I understand that limits some of the original parts of some comics but y have a lot more on your Twitter page than on here. For example I can’t find the Pride story

Idk

It’s cartoon porn. That’s stupid. It hurts nobody.

Lee

Fucking ridiculous, holy shit. Ughhhhhh

ManyMates

A fictional means of mind control on fictional characters is crossing the line huh. Good to know.

ArcticGorilla420

It may not really be my thing to begin with, but that sucks hypnosis is being turned down by the site.

Harris_the_Foxx

No problems here, really. Still looking forward to supporting you.

Tio Takurua

Lab Tigers?

Tyrion Erikson

Does this mean we won't be seeing a Turn About part 3?

CatCouch

Oh, that sucks. I just pledged today and was all ready to get into that, ha ha~ Do what you need to do to make quality art and also get the money you need to live on. I'll do my part to support your outstanding work!

Setekh Chaos

Grr patreon needs to stop being such cunts about sexy art

SpicyTodo

Does it matter if you do the hypno eyes but don't say it's hypno? I'm still gonna follow you till the ends of times

LeonDelRed

The thing that people don't understand about hypnosis is that it doesn't work unless you consent to it. This is the same for voodoo and other occult stuff; So can't be rape if you're willingly put yourself out there sexually.

Alexander717

Meesh no! D: Some of us are subscribing to you because of your interest in hypnosis work! Don't let them do this to you, please! D:

Vawlkus

While I'm not bothered by hypnosis being no longer welcome on Patreon, I'm getting fairly irked by Patreon's increasing 'nanny' nagging.

Afell Tale

Nnnf. Hypno content is getting harder 'n harder to find! Your content is some of the more high quality I've found recently too! It'll be sad to see if drop off your Patreon, but that just means well need to keep tabs on your other content sites for hypno content when you do it.

Ztpia

oh no :(

RICH

Rip

Renaissance Wolf

I agree. Seems unconstitutional to me

Kaizer

But-but... it's fantasy! :L

Renaissance Wolf

That sucks. I always liked your hypno stuff. And ur art looks so nice in HD.

Tyrion Erikson

That sucks....

minoan

Patreon really seems to be doing everything they can to drive away business through content policing. I feel like in another few years another site will have come along with much less restrictive content policies and most artists in this space will migrate there.

Fenoxo Fenfen

I'm probably going to stop pledging, as the hypno stuff was the big draw for me. If you ever open up on a more hypno friendly platform, I'll be happy to come back! <3 your work.

Kitsunelegend

Jesus, before you know it, patreon is gonna start banning nudity, and then bikinis, and the require that all female characters wear huge bulky dresses. This whole thing is getting really stupid tbh. Its bloody fictional characters, in a fictional setting, and these idiots are acting like its hurting real life people or some shit.

invidious

I'd gladly pay slightly more for my pledge to support Meesh on a censorship free platform run by people who care about their creators.

Sparky

Well, at least I'll have my Platinum downloads hahaha :)

Pep

Dang, that's annoying. Hypnosis isn't my thing but you always took great pains to make sure that you're stuff was explicitly consensual, which I really appreciated.

FMcB

sad trombone. that's business though, I guess

Leo

Ugh. This kind of crap is getting more than a little thought police-ish.

Ragingwerewolf

Damn, got excited, bit too excited, now all ive got no smit and a sad boner

Yoshiba

That's my fetish. :(

FurBucks

I appreciate you pointing out that Patreon doesn't have much of a choice regarding these guidelines, and I will continue to support you and other artists here. Thanks!

Meesh

Removing pledges will only hurt the creators, not the platform. Unless you support the artists on a different website.

time to quit patreon accounts to show them they are on the wrong way

Meesh

I appreciate it!

Meesh

Not if their payment processors threaten to pull the plug! That's my theory, anyway.

Meesh

I don't believe that this shift in guidelines comes from puritanical sensibilities, but influence from outside sources, and that Patreon perhaps has no choice in the matter. It's still a bummer, though.

invidious

That's sad. Yet another wave of Patreon censorship. During the last wave I removed all my support from the platform except for you, Meesh. I love your art but I hate like hell to pay into this corporation. Hopefully they don't censor you further.

Sparklefox

Well that sucks!

Issac Streyer

Could have sworn patreon was created with the content creators in mind....

TheTavernCat

Bummer, but ill always support you meesh! <3

Meesh

My Furaffinity, my Twitter, my Sofurry, my Weasyl... any place I have an online gallery, I'll try and post it.

Meesh

My bad!

Meesh

Conveniently, the final part of Turn About has no hypnosis at all :P

unmakeyourself

Quick question tho, where can I follow to get any hypnosis content you do make in the future?

Vaska

Nuuuu!! I want to see more tiger getting it XD

Zagura

Click expecting hypnosis content, get opposite instead. :’(

Meesh

I don't think they would make allowances for Hypno Toad!

Meesh

Thank you! And I'll still enjoy making it on my own time. :)

That really sucks, I'm a big fan of your hypnosis work too. But it's understandable that you've taken this stance on the matter!

Meesh

Any hypno art I make from this point forward will not be included in the roundups.

Meesh

Some people have taken a bigger hit over this than I have. I'm glad that a majority of my content isn't hypnosis... it would be a big deal if the comic I am currently doing was hypnosis-oriented. Thank you for your support!

F'yacin

Aw man, huge bummer. Your hypnosis content was among my favorite.

Meesh

Nuance doesn't have a desk at the Patreon offices.

Meesh

😏

Admiral Fail

You should get back at Patreon by making a Rule34 Hypno Toad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Psycat

This sucks, but better for you to be safe than sorry. Will any of the hypno art be included in the monthly roundup .zips?

BroodsTheMoods

That's okay, Meeesh we still love you. Not the biggest fan of hypnosis (I Dont dislike it), but its still a blow and it sucks you have to take this step. Keep covering yourself and doing beautiful work sir!

Strawberry Puptart

Damn, that doesn't even make sense. You can't make someone do something they don't want under hypnosis.

Ick. I dont blame you for taking measures now. It just sucks Patreon is yet again mucking things up. Actually... is any of the stuff still in the monthly roundups so I can nab the high-rez versions from those?

Meesh

Nevermind that all of my hypnosis content is highly fantastical in nature and wholly unrealistic.

Meesh

They're certainly taking no chances.

Meesh

There's no reason I can't make hypnosis content on my own time-- it just can't be posted on Patreon.

MeepsKitten

Odd considering that hypnosis IRL requires complete consent to work.

Meesh

Yes, my hypnosis content will go to my FA, Twitter, etc instead of Patreon. I could still use the funds from Patreon to fund hypnosis content without actually putting it on the Patreon itself, which would allow for continued regular hypnosis content. However, my business model is based around paywalled content, and this method doesn't sit right with me. I can still scribble out the stuff on my own time-- it just won't be as polished.

Meesh

I have a SubscribeStar in my back pocket for if things get really bad, but I don't feel like a complete shift to SS is warranted just yet.

Felix

Oh man, that sucks

KomDog

Smh

Kazar Xin Xiao

Have you considered using alternative Patreon services like SubscribeStar?

Insignia

Does this mean that your hypno stuff will go to FA directly?

Sanmer

*sigh*

KittenTrap

Will you still make Hypnosis art and post it somewhere else? I'm just now getting into it and now that Patreon is taking it down, that really sucks! :(

BaphometBimbo

Patreon’s policies on our NSFW content are RIDICULOUS.
