October 2022: Software Issues and New Patrons
Added 2022-10-23 16:11:04 +0000 UTCDear Patrons,
How's it going? I already made a status update on my Discord server recently but here it is again, in case you missed it.
I'm very sorry for the reduced content this month. I faced some serious problems with my computer (very likely due to new Nvidia driver issues) and couldn't make any artwork as a result. After some trial and error, I've now managed to circumvent the issue (no idea whether it'll crop up again) and hope to make one more artwork post before the end of this month.
In other news, the current political situation in the world has been taking a toll on my finances and hence, on my peace of mind. It doesn't help then that while I'm happy to get new Patrons, they don't understand what Patreon stands for: Patreon is not just a buy-and-sell platform but rather a platform where Patrons support the creator for a reasonable amount of time because they value the content and want it to continue. If a new Patron joins, gets access to all my posts so far, and then decides to leave even before the month is over, then that's quite demoralizing.
As such, I've decided to NOT give access to all my older posts to new Patrons - They can get slow and steady access to all the posts but only after a few months of continued support. If this means I don't get new Patrons, so be it - My current Patrons are all very supportive, even when I don't post for a while or fail to deliver on their Tier benefits due to technical/life problems. So, a huge thank you to all those Patrons who've stayed on (and newer Patrons who will stay on) since the beginning of your subscription!
Cheers,
Putanari.
