Tier Switching. DO NOT SKIP THIS POST. (Patreon)

Good morning everyone. This is mostly a copy pasta of the announcement made on February 28th in the Discord that we’re cross posting here because it is still happening. So if you’ve read this on Discord and actually paid attention to what was said, you can ignore this. :3 Otherwise, read on. This is a final warning.

During the month of February we noticed that quite a few people were joining one of our $10 tiers and then swapping back and forth between the $10 tiers to grab rewards while not paying the extra money per tier. How? Because Patreon's tier system doesn't charge for a tier swap if the tier cost is the same.

Then why don’t you just change the prices of your tiers a little? Still doesn’t work. Because if someone swaps their tier it will only charge them the difference of the tier they are swapping, not the whole price. Not to mention if they sub to say, a $10.50 and swap to a $10.00 tier, there’s still no charge.

Unfortunately this is something that we cannot fix unless we change around all of tiers, which we are not looking to do. The way the tiers are is a fair system for us and for the Patrons, since we as a team do offer a lot of releases a month.

During the month of February we just sucked it up and dealt with the swapping, but as we go into March please note these three things...

1. We do see you working the system.

2. Moving forward if you do try and work the system and swap tiers ($10 tier to $10 tiers only), you will be banned without warning. We have been very generous thus far sending people messages on Patreon stating that this is something that cannot be done and that if they want passwords for both they need to upgrade. Going forward, this will not happen. You do it, you’re gone.

3. If you ask someone else for the passwords to a tier you’ve switched to because you didn’t receive passwords (because again, we see you), then you and the person who shared the passwords will be removed.

That may seem harsh, but at the same we are putting in a lot of time and effort into our releases for everyone, and that's not fair to us. Not to mention this is the second time the announcement has been made and people are still doing it. 

Thank you, and please enjoy the rest of your day! ♥
