Addressing the Pirates (Patreon)

Content

I've gotten one or two messages from people frustrated that the Patreon content is being shared around with people who aren't actual members.

I'm very aware of pirates and how they essentially purchase my own, and several other creators content so they can give it away for free. I'm very frustrated that over 7 months of 40 hour weeks on the comic and new renders have been pirated around already.

It's sad that this happens to artists like myself who are just trying to get their next meal after spending over a year on a project that equates to a full time job - in addition to a real full time job.

I've been down this road since I started 5 years ago and I'm more frustrated for everyone who buys from me at this point. With anything pornographic or erotic, people don't seem to care about the artist and need their fix. I get it. 

Luckily, I have enough support to live right now and I'm eternally grateful for those who rightfully purchase and enjoy what I make. If there was a way to lock things down in prevention I would absolutely take that step. Obviously I'd enjoy the security of the income more and everyone who supports me would get more content that is special for them.

I apologize if anyone is irritated by the fact that they support me and others just get it for free. 

This is never a reason for me to stop doing this. So long as I have people who genuinely support me, I will have the resources to make as much as I make and as often as I do.

I really hope everyone is enjoying the new comic, it has blown up further than I could've imagined. So much so that I was able to afford new computer parts and all those new updates to Jen to make her even more detailed.

Thanks, everyone. Fuck pirates - don't pick on artists.

I cant belive that there is no reason to lock them or mark them somehow. Like if some1 purchase your comics, each of them have a digital footprint or ID something, so in this case if its being shared, you know whos the pirate. I have seen this maybe 1 or 2 times somehow its possible. And then you can block him or I dont know. Since its your intellectual product I also cant believe it theres no law to protect yourself. :'( BTW you are so far the most talented one not just here in my opinion, and its makes it more frustrating for your supporters as well. :S

Hey man. I've been using Patreon for years now, and what I discovered is I usually support smaller names over the massive "mainstream" accounts. Generally speaking the content you make is pretty niche, Giantess and foot? Considering these are not your run of the mill fetishes, it's more difficult for people like your subs to find them. So let me say when we do find them (and they are extremely high quality like your work) then it feels like finding the lottery. What's important to me is supporting that, and I could careless if someone else finds your content free considering I "want" to support work like this. I WANT more content creators like yourself and I WANT these fetishes and ideas to be more mainstream so we can get more of it. Supporting it is the only way I can contribute and expect to see more of this kind of content. In my years of being on Patreon, you are probably the 6th or 7th person now (who's a lesser known content creator) who has had all his or her worked leaked elsewhere. The unfortunate truth is it's going to happen, and there isn't much you can do to stop it. It's totally fine to be upset. That's YOUR work being pirated, your hard earned work. I just recommend to not be discouraged, because your fans will support your work regardless if it's free. My recommendation is to brand your work, find a subtle way to make sure a watermark or URL for your Patreon page is on it. Believe it or not, I have found MANY Content creators I now support because of leaked content. I'm not actively looking for free content, I'm simply looking for more content (because like I said earlier, some fetishes are hard to come by). Leaked stuff usually appears on RULE34, and when I find something so incredibly well made, I want to know ASAP where I can find more of it. Sometimes leaked work can give you more publicity as funny as that may sound. Just know, your work is really good. Long as you keep up what you're doing I will gladly support your work. Hope this helps mate.
