Commission perk decisions (Patreon)
Content
I think I might need to remove the 'anytime commission' perk from the $10 tier, but I wanted to discuss this with y'all before doing so to see if there are any other solutions.
The perk goes mostly unused throughout the year. I do not like doing commissions, though I'll do one for a friend on occasion. As soon as I do however, a lot of people are reminded of the perk and rush to message me, which results in chain reaction commissions. I go from having 0 comms to work on to 4+ overnight, during a period I technically don't have comms open. It makes it so I dread when I do get a request because I know it's going to lead to at minimum 3 more in a very short period.
Considering how rarely the perk is used and how much of a headache it becomes when it is, I think it might be better to just remove it. I don't want to lead people on with it. I also don't want people joining up just for the sole purpose of commissioning me, then leaving, which is a problem introduced by the perk. I don't know what kind of formal system would work in its stead.
If ya'll have idea, thoughts, suggestions, or complaints, feel free to share.
