Hey all!

I want to just say thank you to all of you who are patrons. Both old patrons and new patrons alike and even those who are no longer patrons.

This morning, I had a couple of folks give me some pretty abusive messages and it really sent me reeling. I recognize that DMDave might seem like a "big company" some days, but really it's just me, my partner-in-crime Laura, and a handful of third-party creators. That's it.

Not everything we do is perfect. And I'm not perfect for damn sure. I've made mistakes. Plenty!

But one thing I've always taken to heart is that I try to learn from feedback and mistakes. 

If you have an issue, you can contact me via operations@dmdave.com, on Discord, on here, or even on Instagram. 9 times out of 10 I'll try to take care of it right away doing whatever it takes. 

At the end of the day, this is just words on a page and art on a screen. It's not worth sweating over the little stuff. 

But you have to talk to me first. I can't do anything for you if your first reaction is anger and/or abuse. The world's got enough of that as it is. And this is D&D, man. For like... $3! C'mon.

Anyways, I know this doesn't pertain to 99.99% of you. Out of the thousands of folks who've been patrons, only a very small minority have been abusive. So many of you are awesome wonderful people who support what we do even when we royally screw the pooch. 

And many of you have even become people I consider friends.

Thank you all so much. And I hope I can continue to create great content for you.

 - Dave

Just saw this, was going back to read old posts to make sure if I missed anything. Sorry that some anonymous (or not) internet prick decided to take it out on you. Don't feel too bad about it, after all, these kind of people just need one minor thing to set them off, like they're on some kind of wacky destructo timer. We all make mistakes and we all experience setbacks and all I can say is keep trying and keep making the great content that we know you are more than capable of making as you have proven time and time again. For every hater there's probably 9 more people quietly enjoying everything you do.

Hey man, I'm sorry you've had harsh and abusive feedback. I'm glad you're aware that 99.99% of us love what you do and that .01% can fuck off and find something better to do with their time and money than unnecessarily shit on a brilliant content creator.

This breaks my heart man. I have been there. It takes one meanspirited comment to send you down a spiral. I wish I could say "if people really knew the impact of their words they wouldn't be so rotten" but the truth is some people are just assholes. Your stuff is amazing, and the DnD community is unequivocally better for all of the work you do. Keep goin!

Adding to the support here. I've been involved in professional game making for 30+ years, and I can honestly say, your work is a treasure trove unlike any other. And jeez, talk about bang for the buck! We've got your back. Keep on bringin' the awesome! I, for one, look forward to every single posting here.

Having come back to DnD after nearly being away for 12+ years, the content produced on here is pretty good value for money. Especially for me as a DM, because none of this stuff ever existed a decade ago!! Keep up the good work Dave!!

The entitlement some people can have over a $3 monthly subscription. We know that you know that this stuff is worth way more than $3 a month. Hell, I was in your $25 tier for almost a year and I still think I got a deal.

Creating content isn't always easy. I've incorporated many of your adventures into my long-running campaigns as side quests, and I've never been disappointed by anything you've shared with us. As someone who has been playing and DMing for roughly thirty years, having these resources available is an absolute game changer (pun intended). Try not to let the haters get you down. The work you put in is very much appreciated. The same goes for your partner-in-crime and the third-party creators working with you.

Whenever I had a problem or a question, you always responded to me quickly. I thank you for doing what you do.

Your content that you guys pour your heart and soul into have provided me and everyone I dm for an amazing Sunday, every week, for almost 2 years now I think? Definitely more than a year. And any issues I have get sorted almost always directly and personally with you. Thanks man, don't let these negative people get you down.

I’m a new patron and just ran my first DMDave adventure for my players tonight— the Flesh Golem Laboratory. I didn’t have any time to prep this week due to an injury, and I just read through it ten minutes before the session and dropped it right into the town the party was in. I was amazed that the session went so incredibly well with no prep. My players loved it and it made things easy on me! I know it takes so much hard work to make this stuff, and I truly appreciate that and the amazing prices. Thank you!!!
