Patreon Status & Tiers Update.
🕑 Added 2023-03-12 02:38:38 +0000 UTCThe last few months making content have been nothing short of amazing. The support and... other things (🤭) I've been able to acruw is nothing short of spectacular and actually has given me the idea that there MIGHT be a chance I can do this as a part time job.
Youve allowed me to create Ballbusting Chat Bot for my supporters, work with VAs to make unique content, as well as branch into other types of captions such as "Prejac". For that I simply cannot thank you all enough ❤️❤️❤️
With that idea though, I’ve hit a bit of a crossroads with Patreon, where with my current plan setup, the most common tier is a supporter at $3.70, and with that being the case, there’ are a few issues.
The first being an amazing and unforeseen problem, that been I’ve hit over 70 supporters now, and I really cannot thank you guys enough for the immense support… but it also means the amount of requests I’m getting per month is staggering.
This isn’t an issue, except for the time it’s taking up. When I started this Patreon, I NEVER expected it to do this well, and underestimated the potential workload that could exist because of that.
The second thing is that because of the taxes and cuts that Patreon and PayPal are taking, I’m finding myself actually working multiple hours per day, while being paid less than minimum wage.
This, of course, is not my supporters fault, and is an error I made, as well as the annoying fact that between Patreon, taxes and PayPal, I’m losing about 45% of the total income that’s made through here.
Regardless, since this isn’t your fault, no one who has a subscription to me currently will ever have to change their price, as long as they remain a Supporter.
With that being said, I have renamed the current “Supporter” tier to “Legacy Supporter” and limited it to 1 member. While opening up a new tier at $5.50 for the new “Supporter” tier.
If you are currently paying $3.70, nothing will change and you’ll get the same perks as you always have. But those legacy support spots will not open up again if you leave them.
I hope this doesn’t come across as greedy or anything of that nature, as the $5.50 tier only puts me at what I had expected in the first place anyway ($5 CAD) and while I know most people will understand (especially since it doesn’t actually affect anyone who’s paying $3.70 currently) I understand this stuff can be offputting, and I apologize for that. If you choose not to support me and my content I begrudgingly understand.
Again though, for most of you this message actually means nothing, and everything will stay the same, so I thank you for the continued support and for reading this wordy nonsense heh. I hope you'll all enjoy the content I make in the future😁

Thank you! It's definitely something I enjoy doing, but the time it takes certainly caught up to me in a way I didn't expect... though that's because of everyone's amazing support so, I appreciate it endlessly 😁♥️😁
Totally understandable, you certainly deserve to be compensated.
Thanks for the support! I'm sure most people do understand, and I'm very appreciative of that 😁
Thank you! I won't be putting it on hold, but there has been some delays recently. I'll find a better way to streamline this and commit more time to this project~
I Love Funabori
It's totally understandable I think most people would think the same if they were doing so much work for not as much money

Understandable. That's alot of captions. If you ever have to put that on hold I'll still stick around.
