PayPal, PayOneer and a sore throat...
Alright, so here is how it is...
Patreon have made some changes in the way that creators form abroad (such as yours truly) can withdraw their funds. First of all it is now way easier to make the withdraw through PayPal. Last month (and every month before that) it looked like this: I request the payment, it takes Anthony a couple of day to approve it then maybe in another few days I get the payment...
Now it's way simplier: all I need to do is click a button "withdraw with PayPal" and it happens instantly. The limitations on my Russian PayPal account didn't go anywhere of course. But now I can work around it without the need to bother Anthony or anyone else. Here is how I did it this month: your pledges are not processed all at once. So by the the end of the month my Patreon balance increases gradually over 2-3 days... So for example I check it and it's $100, then I check it again in a few hours and it's $300... So I need to catch a right moment and make a withdraw before it goes over my $3000 PayPal limit. If I do that every month - I'm golden. If I miss "the sweet spot" then I will have to bother Anthony again I suppose...
But that is PayPal...
Now, Patreon also added an option of direct bank account withdraws via PayOneer. I did not try it yet, but I think it should work just fine since PayOneer specializes in working with international clients. So as soon as I encounter and unsolvable problem of any sort with PayPal I can jump the ship and use PayOneer instead. I don't think I need to explain to you guys how good it make me feel to just know that an option is out there. (!!!!!)
And finally to the last bit of news: this morning I woke up "with a cactus down my throat"... Yeah, managed to catch a cold somehow...
But there is nothing I can do, it's always a waiting game with the cold. Just need to make sure to drink enough fluids and stuff...
Probably will tale it slow and easy today...

Hope you get well and may the kinky side of the force be with you
It is always with me... I can feel it running through my veins... Telling me to draw more quality smut...
We want a new "Hire Akabur a sexy nurse" goal
Oooh. I actually like that... Like that a lot!!
As a medical student, it is my professional opinion that you need to take 500 mg of "take it slow and relax" twice a day for the next 2-3 days :P Take care man, hope you feel better soon.
500 mg of "take it slow and relax"? Dammit... I think I could be allergic to that... But what do I know? You are the doctor. I'll give it a try. And thanks :)
In japan there is a saying: "Idiots don't catch colds." So now we know... Just take it slow and don't fight it to much. We will be waiting for you when you are feeling better.
There is a saying like? Really? Great! I had a feeling that maybe I'm not an idiot, but I now I have a concrete proof! And thank you for wishing me well. I appreciate it.
You need to find a babʊʂkə to make you a tub of chicken soup and a pot of throat tea :) I stole the Russian version from wiki... hope its right...
"babʊʂkə"? Wikipedia lied to you. Looks like runes to me... Oh, wait, that's a dictionary reading of the word. Alright I get it... Dunno... I have very little interest in "babushka"... I would rather have some "devushka" do that for me...
Take your time, we aren't in a rush. Health sould always come first ! And drink a lot (with honey and lime) and try to drink hot as well. Take care.
Honey, of course! You see, I knew that, but it did not cross my mind until mentioned it... Wow... Would would I do without you guys...?
Get well soon. I will send medication ;)
Heh... Send it. I will need it, because... .......... .... .. The Winter Is Coming...
Glad to hear the PayPal issues seem to be sorted out for the time being, hopefully the direct deposit option works out for you in the future. Definitely take as much time as needed to recover, drink plenty of water and relax in bed. Most of us understand you're only one man.
Yeah... I think I will take it slow for a day or two. Thanks for the support. You are like the best boss ever.
Well, that's one big worry less. Get well soon, mate.
Thanks, buddy...
Funny sketch dude lol xD Hope ya feel better, I've been fighting a cold myself for like 2 weeks now..
Somehow knowing about your misery made me feel a bit better... Nice to know that suffering is shared. Thank you for that. ^_^
Man, you know now plenty of rest, see some series and stay comfy at home, no putas or drinks until you are better. Take one or two days with no stress, as Dorago says you come first,. Get better soon and congratulations man!
Thanks buddy... ^^
That's good news, for the payment, and the arrival of that new hidden hero could give me some some idea for your paypal adventures ^^ That's sad you caugh a cold, you better take a rest and take care of your health, it's more important than the game, I'm sure everybody can wait a bit more, you come first ^^
Agreed. Health should be a number one priority in any endeavor.
