Oh, no, no, no, no
Hey friends…
I need to clear something up and honestly - I feel like an idiot, because this is completely my fault.
I announced a -30% Black Friday discount and I genuinely thought all of you would be able to use it.
Just now I found out that on Patreon this discount works only for new subs.
Unfortunately that’s how it’s designed. It’s exactly like internet contracts - new customers get the promo, and loyal old ones… Well, you know what and where they get it. Total BS and completely against what I wanted to do.
I checked every possible option and sadly there is no normal way to give a discount to existing patrons:
the code works only for the first payment and only for new people,
I can manually reduce tier prices, but
- that change activates only after 31 days,
- everyone has a different billing day, so some people would get the discount twice, and some only once,
- yearly subscriptions wouldn’t get anything at all.
Patreon simply doesn’t support any kind of promotion for existing, OG patrons.
It’s not something I made up, that’s literally how the system works.
From my side, I can only say one thing: I’m sorry for misleading you.
I promised something that technically isn’t possible to deliver in a fair way for everyone.
The only thing I can do as a way to say thank you and apologize is to work harder.
So I’m pushing until the end of the year and I’ll try to release two updates for Destroyer and Condemned Bunker each in December, so you can feel that your subscription truly has value and that I can give you at least some kind of holiday gift. Also Destroyer v1.39 will be ready for this Wednesday/Thursday.
Thank you to everyone who’s been supporting me for a long time.
It’s thanks to you that I can work on these projects, and I’ll do my best to make it right.
I just hate saying something and then not delivering it. Sorry for being emotional, I had to get this out of my system.
I’m really sorry.
