Patreon Nonsense
🕑 Added 2019-04-30 03:57:25 +0000 UTCPeople have been really upset at the recent ToS that has come out from Patreon basically saying that they can terminate accounts for whatever they want. I want people to understand a few things.
1) This is how many sites are and there isn't any real law that say they are not allowed to be this way. It is rather unfortunate how Patreon has been lately but there isn't much we can do.
2) Pulling your pledges from Patreon does not hurt Patreon as much as you think it does but it REALLY hurts the creators you are supporting. Most of us live check to check with Patreon and despite our complete disagreements with the site, cannot leave because of how the platform is or just the following. I am with you guys with wanting this site to be the way it was when it first started.
3) Much like before, calling them out on social media makes them second guess a lot of their decisions. It was the public outcry that made them stop some decisions before but until a new platform comes up that rivals Patreon but is better for its users, protesting by withdrawing money really hurts creators tremendously more than the site.
Please be mindful of this. I do not agree with many things that it does but I do depend on this place regardless.

Yeah, it sucks. Unless some site like Subscribestar gets some serious momentum, Patreon is the only place most people have got, and they know it...
