Bronze-/Silver-Tier changes [Point System] (Patreon)
Content
First off: Sorry that this took me so long. I was so busy with that whole Suit-thing that I didn't get any time to properly think about this one.
As I have mentioned, the votes will officially be gone by now.
Instead of the votes, these tiers will get a set amount of points every month.
If you want to know how many points you have, you can send me a message and I will check it for you!
This only applies to the Bronze and Silver tiers! The gold tier will remain completely unchanged!!
Changes
- Points per Month - Bronze tier: 10 Points
- Points per month - Silver tier: 20 Points
- Cost per Photoset: 10 Points
- Cost per Animation: 10 Points
Important Information:
Patreon does not have an official feature for this system. So I am keeping track of it myself.
I will explain a few things here. If you do have any questions, please let me know.
If you want to use a few points to unlock a creation or if you want to check how many points you have: Simply write me a message on patreon! Since this is the first month, all Bronze-Tier Members will start with 10 Points and all Silver-tier Members will start with 20 Points!
- You will get new points every month as long as you are an active Patron
- Your points will add up and they will be combined at the beginning of the next month. So you don't have to spend them all at once if you don't want to. **Example at the bottom**
- You won't ever lose your points unless you delete your pledge. Deleting your pledge will reset your points unless you re-join again during the same month.
- You can unlock every single set or animation with your points but the newest release will be gold-exclusive for a week. 1 week after the release, you will be able to unlock that as well!
Additional Information:
Originally, I was thinking of putting up different point-prices for Animations and Photosets, since Animations take way more work than a photoset. But I decided against that.
All creations will cost the same amount of points.
This will improve the lower tiers quite a bit. The bronze tier wasn't able to vote for animations before. And the Silver tier was previously limited to Loop-versions.
But that limit is now gone to simplify everything!
You can sum it up by You can unlock 1-2 creations per month and you will get access to all previews just as it was before the change!
I do hope that Patreon develops a system to include this process. That would have the benefit that you could look your points up and unlocking things without having to write me a message. But it is what it is!
Let me know what you think of this! While it does seem a little bit more complicated at first, it is a huge improvement in all aspects aimed to make your lives a little easier!
Example for leftover-points:
**Example for leftover points: I will take the Bronze tier as an example, but the same thing applies to the Silver tier just with double the points for the new month.
You have 10 Leftover points because you haven't spend them.. Your pledge is still active and the new month starts with rewards you with a fresh 10 points.
This will end up as 10+10points. So you will have 20 when the new month starts. That way, you don't need to be in a hurry to spend them.**
