I changed my Patreon to "Charge Upfront"
Hello my Patrons, and my readers (who is not my patron yet)!
Today I've changed my Patreon to "Charge Upfront".
(A new setting finally Patreon implemented)
It means, new Patrons pay their support when they join.
(If you are already my Patron, there are no changes. Patreon bills you at 1st day of each months usually)
There are many reasons and benefits for us. For example...
a) I already have enough posts and contents, and have confidence in new patrons get something worth for their support.
b) I can deliver full rewards, including the key to my comic archive ASAP.
c) Our Patreon community become more fair... because the new system can shut out bots and bad manner readers.
(Honestly, seeing many accounts never give me real support, or people "join and leave" without any support, is really discourages me every month. It is not only a problem about money... feeling I'm fooled and deceived is worse than it)
Anyway, I believe this change activates my Patreon better!
Please enjoy!

Good to hear!
Haha i love this
That sucks. I am glad you have fans you still support you. Lots of these people are probably just kids who don't know any better or people who act like kids.
I always thought that they way that Patreon works was strange by charging at the beginning of the month regardles of when they joined the previous month. Getting charged and full rewards asap makes much more sense.
Well that good. Still 30 declined accounts that just rude and stupid.
were you getting a lot of fake accounts?
Sadly, Yes. For example, there were roughly 30 declined accounts in the last month. But situation has changed, so I'll focus better on kind & honest Patrons like you! :D
This is great for patreon users
Yes, sometimes I became a Patron of some artist... and waiting one month (to get rewards) was boring. It is a nice change!
Sounds good.
Alright! That's good to know!
Well this is pretty amazing, many thanks :D
