Possible Tier Changes in July: $1/5/10/20 (Patreon)

I made a poll last week asking about tier value...

While the results seemed to suggest that nothing need to change, I did get a fair bit of direct feedback as well, thankfully not saying that the prices were bad or too high, but instead that they seemed reasonable/low. Also though, the exit surveys for some escapee patrons this month all cited covid/financial changes (which is good! There was a time people were leaving due to dissatisfaction, it's good to see now that money is the defining factor rather than the content!)

So this is sort of suggesting to me that the tiers are okay, but that they could use more width, both for the sake of my own sustainability, and those whoaretrappedchoose to be here!

I feel like the simplest solution to this is to break the $7 up into $5 and $10 tiers. 

I'd like to offer a cheaper tier to anyone as well who would like/need it, as well as increase the price of the tier that includes the more substantial rewards. I have noticed that between the $7 tier there are a mix of people who use different aspects of the rewards (such as the commissions discounts) and I suppose it's not super helpful for someone to be paying for something they aren't actually using.

This is my plan so far, and if implemented, will likely happen near the end of July. I wanted to give this as notice to people so that anyone has plenty of time to see this, give me any feedback or suggestions, and let me know how you feel.

In particular as well, I'd really like to know how people feel about the rewards being split up between these. 

I'm not decided yet how I'd split these exactly, but access to the Dungeon Treasures will likely not be a reward in the $5 tier, meaning that access will increase to $10 overall. I may also tweak the commissions discounts. 

Please do get in touch with your thoughts about this. 

Of course I need to think about how this affects me, as my income is pretty tight right now and this is a pretty difficult/risky decision for me atm, but I do care about how this affects you all as well, especially as I know that everyones financial situations are up in the air as well, and I want to make sure that people still get to feel included and able to join in the naughtiness without feeling completely dominated by finance problems.

I hope you have a kinky Sunday, sweet dumplings! <3
