Discord Support
Hi all, it's become apparent that some people are having trouble getting the chapters, so I've been thinking of a workaround.
Firstly, make sure you've connected your discord to your Patreon on Patreon; it's in the settings under Connected Apps (on the browser, not the app). Secondly, would you guys like me to make a Patreon-only server to keep the chapters on, which will be much smaller and easier to navigate?
It's easy enough to do and if it makes things easier for those of you that aren't as big on discord, I'll set it up
Edit: Between here and Discord there doesn't seem to be a clear decision so for now I'm going to put the Patreon channels in their own category, now under Shiro's Patreon Channels instead of Shiro's Studio. They should be fairly easy to find, just look for Patreon on the category list. I realise the server is hard to navigate for new people but there's a few too many cons for me to make the jump straight over to a new server just yet so we'll see how it goes like this first. If you have any issues, ping me in the server and I'll help if I can (Dark Wolf Shori)

Hey could I bother you for a proper link to join your discord so I can read your content. Tried a few found here and none work.
That usually means that your account is set to not be able to join nsfw servers, so you'll need to fix that. The links work on my end.
I’m having trouble getting the role back. Had billing issues that have now been sorted out (for now) and haven’t got the role back. Discord is linked properly and everything
You’ll need to contact patron support, I can’t fix issues with the bot since if I give you the role, it’ll take it back
Hey I just subscribed and see that patreon is an authorized app on discord but isn't listed under connected apps. What do I do from here, my discord username is LOGANATERx2000.
Check the settings on browser not app, it doesn’t show up in app for some reason
The problem is that apple devices can’t access any discord server that is listed as 18+, it’s fine if the server was normal but most channels were NSFW, but the server itself has to be not rated 18+.
You can enable that in your settings in browserr
I think it’s fine how it is. Once I had the channel, it’s been working great. I copied the channel link to my own personal server I have so I can just click the link and be taken straight there. We can also just wait for the ping and ride the notification there.
You can do a read only folder and post the link. Just drop w copy of yhe chapters in it when you are ready.
I can't connect patreon to discord
It’s in the settings under connected apps, make sure you use browser. If you can’t do it then it’s an issue with your discord account and I can’t help there but there’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to
I can't really connect to discord, since I'm kinda in hiding from my Friends since.. well.. at least 4 Years now? Anyway, I stay subbed regardless and just wait for Public releases like always~
Can’t you just make an alt?
Yes please set it up on patreon
Connected my Patreon to discord but I havent seen any changes? My username is fireball01
I've checked you have the roles, probably just took a minute
I had issues with getting access initially as well even though discord was connected. There was a second place under the connected apps in discord where it listed all the connected Patreon servers and I had to click join server for yours there as well, then it worked.
That worked for me as well. As Shiro said though it can only be accessed from the browser not from the app.
Also, I would build a guide with images on how to connect to the Discord server. People are lazy, and if shit gets too complicated, they'll just unsub(for the current month) and not bother with it. Even if it is an arguably easy process for veteran Discord/Patreon users. So that's lost income for you. You gotta cater to the lowest denominator to prevent as many barriers as you can to new /continued subs. Then, you would only have to deal with egregious problems with people connecting to the Discord, instead of having to answer questions all the time on how to connect.
Make a server or lock down the current patreon discord channels. It's annoying having to scroll through all the sperg to find the actual google doc links to current/previous chapters. If people want to talk about patreon chapters, there could be a 'patreon spoilers channel'
I pin the chapters, so you don't need to scroll
A dedicated server would be nice endless scrolling take time I could use to find out how shiro 1 f@#$ed up kuro 2
Yes, it would be really nice 👍
Make a patreon only chat and only post chapters in the currently patreon take time to find chapters when people are writing
So I don't use discord for anything other than your new chapters, and I don't mind either way. I don't interact with chat, just stay in that one channel and check pinned messages whenever you update the post on patreon or whenever my phone notifies me of a new message @ patreons, whichever reaches me first.
I struggled a little bit but ended up working it out, that said I wouldn’t mind a separate server
I've had some trouble connecting but then i figured it out. Maybe a step-by-step guide would help new people, but I think the biggest problem is definately the navigating the server (even being a member for a while). If you don't want to make a separate server, maybe just make the channel part of the update tab and limit it to just you posting updates then have the channels in your section for discussion
Yeah, that server is fucking massive.
I don't mind either way
Is there a reason you don’t just post the chapters here?
patreon tos is pretty strict about what you can have included and while I've seen other people post links to stuff that's against TOS without issues, I don't wanna take the chance since they seem to purge accounts with no real warning
I’m good the way it is, but then I haven’t had any trouble
Yes please. It’s hard to navigate
