Scraper Update
🕑 Added 2021-05-02 18:43:27 +0000 UTCSomeone updated my scraped page on the scraper website. The scraper only added April's public posts, which means the scraper is no longer a patron of mine. idk who the scraper is/was, but the important thing is that I know all current patrons are not the scraper. I don't know whether the scraper updated the website in late April or early May, so it's possible that the scraper was a patron in April. idk what mechanism is used for the scraper to scrape my website so idk if the scraper has to still follow my Patreon or not. There is only one former patron in March (that canceled before April) that is still following me, so maybe that person is the scraper. If the former patron ever becomes a patron again and my content that is hidden behind a paywall ends up being scraped, then that person will be banned. There are seven former patrons total who were a patron in the Kobold tier in March and left before May (including the person in the previous sentence). Overall, I guess I can narrow the scraper down to seven people with a major suspicion to one person.
I sent an email to two different email addresses belonging to the scraper's website's web host. I never heard back from either email address. The web host company is DDoS-Guard and I feel like they're either ignoring me or they don't check their emails (which would be weird for a web hosting company to do).
Anyways, as I've mentioned before, the strategy guides on my Patreon will only be available to those in the $2 USD tiers and up, which includes all the tiers except for the most basic Kobold tier that has no stars. I'm limiting the amount of content given to the most basic Kobold tier because of the scraper experience. The most basic Kobold tier will still have access to all my old games and to all my new games before they're released publicly. If you're in the most basic Kobold tier and you want strategy guides, then simply switch to a higher tier (Kobold ★ is $2 USD and has monthly WIP update access while Fresh is $2 USD and has polling access, so either choice is an upgrade). If you're in the most basic Kobold tier and you don't need strategy guides, then there is no obligation for you to switch tiers. If you're not in the most basic Kobold tier, then this doesn't affect you.
Unrelated to the above, I have a patron in the Boyfriend Summon tier and that patron has chosen the fox boyfriend to receive an update, so the slutty fox boyfriend will receive eight new scenes in Boyfriend Summon! Additionally, last month's poll had Boyfriend Summon winning an update to have a new huge himbo boyfriend. Thus, there are two Boyfriend Summon updates on my queue.
