Uh oh...

Page 58, which I posted earlier today, got pulled down for going against the community guidelines. Patreon has a zero tolerance policy regarding nonconsensual adult content and apparently page 58 crossed the line, which is funny considering it's a page featuring a bdsm scene between two consenting adults with no nudity. I can see how someone not familiar with the comic wouldn't get that, but still, annoying. ^^; I sent in a request so hopefully it'll be back up in the next few days, but if this is going to become the new norm, then I should probably get my SubscribeStar page up and running.

Thanks to everyone that left a message! Sorry I'm unable to respond at this time.

Uh oh...

Are there any news on this?

Robert Pommrich

I agree, you need to leave this platform.

Jordan Andrew Scherr

Hey, it's already halfway through the month, I'm sorry but I want a refund

Fan de Sunset Shimmer

Familiar is fantastic. I found Soushiyo about the same time I found you.

Mark Holdgrafer

And the post with the link is also gone.....

Talasha

Good, then I'll cancel here and shift over accordingly as soon as it's ready. Please do post as soon as that's the case.

Jordan Andrew Scherr

Will do.👍

Stereoscope Comics

All things considered, I would prefer to support you through subscribestar instead. They take a smaller cut of your subscriptions so you would be getting more money per subscriber.

Ajax

Right?!

Stereoscope Comics

...I mean...maybe way further down the line. These two have only known each other for a small amount of time still. 😜

Katt Wallingford

this is bullshit welcome to patreon hopefully you get SubscribeStar up a running as a back up just in case and a sub only discord for us to get updated on whats happening

mrpixelsmiles

https://www.subscribestar.com/help According to that no they don't..... sad then our ways will part.

Talasha

There is a big problem here. Patreon is wrong. Because your story is about BDSM with consent. No matter how they try to put it, they just made a big mistake and somebody has to pay the price now. And thats not you for sure!

Hakuro

Lmao xD

Alice dream

Keep us posted, if we leaving this place for being uninformed :/

Ravencommander

Damn that's random. What's next, an earth... oh. I'm catching the whiff of AI involvement in making these decisions. We should perhaps be glad AI is still bad at grasping context - else it would be making comics by now... Couple of tips for submitting appeals - keep it short, factual and dispassionate. The person reviewing your complaint has very little time to do so and doesn't give a rat's ass about your emotions. I wouldn't be surprised if the way you're treated is linked to how much money you make for them (they'll never admit it, but that's how it generally works in the biz) - in which case you're in a better situation than the average Joe, being in the top 1%, at least according to Graphtreon. Nevertheless, I'm rating the odds of having this reinstated as low to moderate at best. Contingency plans are needed.

Amber7

So sorry that happened! I'm looking forward to seeing it come back eventually!

hyperklathos

And the "No Fun Allowed Brigade" strikes again 🙄 Prep to relocate to Subscstar? Cus this place is getting increasingly unwelcoming 😞

Nimrod009

Patreon really has turned into shit. I really wish webcomic artists would spread the word to their comrades that this place is fucking poison.

Ascender

Good man, with as uncertain as things are right now. Always important to have a back up.

kou32

I just got verified. Now I just need to start loading stuff on there. I’ll probably just batch it all into some Dropbox zip files. Regardless, I’m gonna try and launch it before January.

Stereoscope Comics

Especially since the content is behind a paywall anyway. 🙄

Stereoscope Comics

Siiiiigh. Zero tolerance rules. *shakes head in artist*

Stereoscope Comics

Right?! And I just rewrote the next section! What da hell?!🤪

Stereoscope Comics

Don’t give them ideas!

NovaWinter

Oh, you'd LOVE it.

Anzac-A1

I really need to read Familiar. The art looks great!

Stereoscope Comics

I think so. I’ll find out and make a post when I get it together.

Stereoscope Comics

Their AI hasn’t checked my backlog yet. ^^;

Stereoscope Comics

That’s a good idea!

Stereoscope Comics

You might want to make an account, it takes a few days for verification if you are going to use it for making content. So it might be best to have it set up on standby.

kou32

Siiiiiigh. No context systems. Gotta love it.

Gantzie

This is what happens when you leave programs that don't understand human language told through physical interaction running a site. They should have sent you a "concerned warning" so you could explain it first before taking it down. >:(

Death of Ink

Oh no and just as it was ramping up 😔

James

this seems to be a common thing now. A lot of other BDSM content creators i used to support on here have moved over to Subcribestar for this reason.

Robert Read

Oh -- and I love the page.

Fritz Sands

I have three artists I patronize on SubscribeStar.adult. Patreon is more than a bit of a PITA for artists in erotica sometimes. I am surprised they have not come down on a number of otrher artists here (yet).

Fritz Sands

Agh, sorry to hear about that. Maybe it's possible you could circumnavigate this issue by posting "preview" images while linking to a Dropbox? I've seen other artists do that to avoid getting hit. Having some disclaimer text about everything being a consenting roleplaying scenario can also help.

TheMask237

*waits patiently for the SubStar link*

UDJM_Phoenix

With how Patreon is changing, SubscribeStar should make an app fast and absorb the migrating market share

Jarnathan Slabdash

by Patreon's logic, I'm damn surprised the Val on the St Andrew's Cross tickle scene is still up ....

Nchalada

I'd imagine it get's resolved. They have no issue with Soushiyo's Familiar, which has even more explicit example of coerced consent etc.

Anzac-A1

What a shame. acceptes Subscribstar PAypal?

Talasha

Yeah, patreon is getting less and less appealing from a creator standpoint. I really like it because there are other creators I like to follow, but stuff like this doesn’t bode well for the future.

Stereoscope Comics

Fucking incredible

Lillie the flower lady

That's annoying, I prefer Patreon to Subscribestar rn for the fact it has a phone app alone. I do most of my viewing on my phone so it's convenient. I hope that Patreon doesn't make this an issue for you going forward on other pages

Jarnathan Slabdash

Thanks Patreon! Yes, get your subscribe star up before you get wiped form the internet and we lose our favorite artist. ❤️

NovaWinter

Indeed.😅

Stereoscope Comics

Yup. 😅

Stereoscope Comics

I’m glad I got to see it when it went up! Also, first.

Justin Cole

Well fuck

Nchalada

Oh no!
