Survey Highlights & New Patreon Test (Patreon)

Hey Everyone!So this is gonna be a long post, but I thought it would it would be good to share some of the highlights of the survey. I feel it is important for you guys to get a feel for how people answered. I also want to give some perspective on the decisions I made for the experimental changes I'm going to make on my Patreon next month. The changes to my Patreon can be seen at the bottom of the statistics.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Survey Highlights55 people took the survey

What do you value most in supporting Patreon Creators?

58.2% - The Quality of the Works

16.4% - The things you cant get anywhere else. eg OCs, Professionalism etc

14.5% - Consistency in content releases

9.1% - The Exclusivity of content. Things only available to Patrons

1.8% - The Speed at which works are made

80% of survey takers valued Quality over Quantity

40% were indifferent to requesting Rule 34 Pics, with a slightly higher amount (by 5%) thinking it important.

85.5% had feelings of indifference - importance in requesting Sweet Life pics

20% were indifferent to the amount of pinups made each month. with an almost even spread of people deeming it generally important, and generally unimportant.

It was important-very important for 72.7% that the pinups be in Full Color.

79% found Line art generally unimportant so it will no longer be a thing.

89% are also uninterested in seeing psds so I will continue to not factor that into rewards

In order to make room for more varied content, 

45% felt reducing the amount of of pinup requests would be the best course of action. 

The second highest at 25.5% said to keep the colors flat, 

The third highest at 23.6% voted to remove the alternate versions. 

83% Find story to be important - very important. 

63% Are excited by Rule 34 Comics

89.1% Are excited by Sweet Life Comics

When asked to choose between Sweet Life Comics or Rule 34 Comics 85.5% chose Sweet Life

81% voted to cull the amount of Pinups per month, to make room for comics.

 When asked "Is a single image better than a comic, if the single image is faster to make?" 61.8% Said No. 

0% think Patreon content should be made public immediately

56.4% Think content should be publicly released overtime, (the current system in place)

The second highest 23.6% think public release is fine if Bonus content is exclusive.

94.5% Believe change is good, if a little scary. 

With these results in mind. The following changes will be be put into effect in an experimental trial  for the month of April and May 2020

The following changes are experimental. After the experiment period we will asses and see what is the best way forward.The monthly Sweetstakes will be reduced to 3 Pinups every month
