Hi everyone, still working hard on the next set of chapters but wanted to give a quick update on a new policy that Patreon has made available to the creators. Starting from this month of December my patreon will now be charging up front for new members who join. This doesn't make any changes to current patrons so you don't have to worry, all it means is that new members will be charged their pledge right away so they can immediately get access to all of the content they sign up for. 

This policy is mostly a way of stopping people from pledging for the month to read the stories I have up and then deleting the pledge before they are charged, or some people who increase their pledge to the $5 tier to read the bonus stories and then decrease back down to only pay a dollar. Unfortunately I've had to ban a lot of people for trying to steal stories like this, as I'm relying on the income that your support brings and attempting to game the system like this is equivalent to sneaking into a store and stuffing items into your jacket and trying to walk away. But with this new system we can be sure that everything is on the up and up.

Just wanted to let you know that when you pledge to a higher tier you are charged the difference right away, and if you lower your pledge then you are charged that amount the following month as your new pledge. If anyone has any questions on the new policy feel free to comment and ask away.

Wait, it didn't do that before? That seems like a massive oversight. I've never done that with your blog, but I've done in and outs with pay-by-story patreons and I was pretty sure it worked correctly? I hope so at any rate.

Nope, before patreon only charged at the start of the month and went by the honor policy. With the pay by story it charges each time something comes out so it's different rules

huh, well that's kind of lame. At the very least I'll stay on midori konton for a bit longer then. Man that's dumb @_@
