Important Notice to all Pateron Please Read All (Patreon)

Hey guys, 

Thanks so much for joining us over on pateron and watching us fall more in love with bts. The first month on pateron was more than I could

ever imagine. I know quite a few people had wanted us to start the pateron way sooner than we did but I'm happy that we listened and 

we started watching Run, Burn the Stage and Bon Voyage. We are enjoying all of them and getting to know you guys  even more. I thought we were only 

going to have a few people join the first month. I never knew that so many people were going to come and watch us here. We appreciate you all and hope

that you all know how much we really care about you and bts. 

On pateron they have goals that you can set-

we never put a number of pateron we would like to have because the number of people was never a goal as much as diving deeper into bts and whoever wanted 

to be here would be here weather it was 5, 10, 15 or 100 we were gonna still upload as much and as often to provide the best experience to whoever was watching. 

In our description we had said that all the donations were going to be used to better the content.  One of them being we were in need of a new

camera that doesn't overheat and turn off so we can put out content more quickly but also more effiecently. Without having to wait for the battery to cool or charge etc. 

When running into issues and wanting to uphold our promises we took it upon our selves to buy the camera sooner than the first of the month. We were going to wait till 

August 1st(yesterday) and with whatever amount that was pledge we were going to buy the camera. 

So thank you to those that are still here and for helping us buy the new camera that not only makes it easier to upload but cuts the time down not having

to wait for the camera to charge, the battery to cool etc. The only cut that happens now is for 25 minutes of filming and were trying to see it we can find 

a way to increase the recording time. We appreciate it because you not only helped us here but on youtube too. 

With all that being said we are making one change this will not affect anyone who is already here. As you know pateron charges a Monthly amount only on the

first of the month so if you came on the first you get charged but if you come after the first you don't get charged till the following Month on the first for 

the month you already watched. So for example anyone who came in after July 1st didn't get charged till August 1st. 

So if we had someone who came in July 2nd and chose to leave before August 1st you don't get paid by that person or persons. We are not making this about money

or saying once your here you have to stay. You may have changes to your finances, you may not like what we have to offer ect. But more than half 

of those who watched us for the whole month of July left this past week before having to pay on Agust 1st and a few returned this morning and today. 

That left this week. 

So the change that we are making is a charge up front so this doesn't happen again. So if Agust 1st you got charged for the month you were already here. This

will not charge you twice.  Anyone who joins after the 1st will get charged right upfront so if they decide to leave by the end of the month again. 

We wanted you to know we were making this change because wants we make the switch we can't go back.  

Again this is not about money those who are still here understand that this site is different than youtube. We pay to use it, and also have two seperate account on vimeo to

upload the amount that we do that we also pay to use.  We love the content and journey and wanting to upload on more often than a once a month experience or once a 

week to make it worth it. On top of the two uploads or daily uploads and uploads here it takes a lot of time to record, edit, thumbnail. Most nights we stay up clear

 past midnight because we care about our content and what we are putting out. When I saw the number coming in and that people wanted to be here I was happy that people

enjoyed us to the extent to take their love for bts one step further.Then right before the first so many cancelled not to pay the 3 dollars. This is not only not 

fair to us, but its not fair to those who did pay and those from youtube who want to be here but can't. When we first started we had people message us and say what 

happened to another person they were watching-something similar and told me to change than. I didn't because I trusted that those who were here wouldn't do that 

till the week before the 1st I saw half leave not to pay for what they watched all month. Most were here since the start of upload one for almost all 30 uploads making each 

video about  10 cents each.

Like I said I understand if your leaving because we said something wrong, we didn't do something right but reading the exit surveys some said we didn't put out enough, others

said we don't do the shout- out rewards as promised and the rest said financial, other or they were addicted. I'm not sure for those who left that all 

understand when they joined that they weren't charge and wouldn't be charged till August 1st but for those who knew and left right before having to pay isn't right. 

We had 50 Cancel and 174 cards were declinded.  We took the chance and bought this camera thinking a hundred percent we were gonna be able to pay it off on August 1st and

 now we can't for those who left willinging knowing that they didn't want to pay 3 dollars. Some even got shout-outs all month. 

We didn't know about pateron. We didn't start pateron cause we knew we could make money. We started because it was suggested. That other creators you watch do the same.

Our understanding was it was a site that we can upload run, burn the stage, bon voyage without getting strikes and continue our journey. When setting up the site I was

hesitent because I took forever to get it up and wasn't sure I was going to after I saw tiers and goals. But after talking with several people they told me

that not only I need to pay for pateron, pay for vimeo and pay for the videos to watch at times that people want to donate to our journey, want to see more of it

here and that those who joined knew that they had to pay into it and wanted to.

This was akward to type out, I feel bad even bringing it up but if I didn't it was going to continue to happen each month. I hope everyone understand why we changed

and continues wanting to be apart of our journey here and on youtube. Feel free if you have questions to not hesitate to message us. 

Thanks to those, who read this really long message and again we really do appreciate you being apart of our lives. We appreciate you helping with our journey. and we love you 3000
