[Monthly Warning] Subscriptions renew tomorrow + [patreon talk] (Patreon)

Hello everyone,

Last day of the month, unsubscribe NOW if you want to or need to, as subscriptions will renew and charge again on the 1st of October.

*****

SIDE NOTE about subscriptions: 

As of a few days ago, there is a new Patreon option on Creator's accounts, to make people be charged on the 'monthly anniversary' of the time they subscribed initially. 

Example: as of now, everyone is charged on the same day, the last day of the month. With the new patreon option, if you join someone's patreon on the 17th of the month, you'll always be charged on the 17th each month. 

I don't know yet if I should switch subscriptions to this new system or stay on the current system. What do you think / what would you prefer?

Thanks,Lumpinou

I prefer the 1st a lot!! so then I know when to expect all patreon charges

Alyxandria Harrigan

I’m fine with the current option but I like the second option bc now I don’t have to wait til the beginning of the month to start subscribing so I won’t get charged twice basically 🤣

MK.NA

I prefer the first option

Patricia

The first so I can pay all of them same time.

nikkinvin

First of the month, please. I like it when all my bills are payed within the first few days of the month. Then is everything I have to pay finished and I dont have to worry about paying that or this, y'know. Because I'm unorganized and even that fckng 5€ bill for my VPN program on 24th of the month is driving me crazy every damn month again xD

I don't even know what day I originally subscribed on so it would throw me off for sure. It'd be nice if they let you choose that option for people who subscribe in the future but let everyone else stay on what they are currently on.

lumpinou

I believe that's actually how it would work, but all the same it is not a clear cut decision... They both have advantages and drawbacks. The last day of the month is traditional and allows to centralize costs (rent etc usually due around that time as well, and it's also payday for many). However, the other option removes the problem of subscribing mid month and being charged again soon after, which is good - but being a random day, it'd be harder to keep track of it. In my opinion they should have tried, instead, to make it so that if you join mid month or after, you pay only half the subscription for that month, something like that

I very much prefer the first option, because then all of my subscriptions get auto-paid on the same day. If it were the other option, then I'd have a bunch of separate transactions for each sub throughout the month, which very much is harder to keep track of. Considering all of the other auto-payments I've had to set up with other services out side of Patreon, this change would be chaos to my transaction activity.

The first original option PLEASE. It’s so much easier to keep track of and I much prefer it that way. Thank you!

Heather

Easiest for me to keep it as it is, because then nothing changes, I don't need to keep track of each individual patreon or whatnot through the month and I *know* it coming. So that just simplifies my budgeting.

icherelyn

I like the option of switching to a specific day based upon the subscription date because people who have certain days of the month based on their pay period that would work better, perhaps that might encourage more to become a patron. But in all honesty, if the first of the month works better for some, just wait until the first and subscribe like most were doing anyway, and in that instance, there are technically no changes.

Lendi Morgan

The easiest for me is the first of the month. But either way works.

Laura

I prefer the current system, thank you!

Jill Briggs

I like the way it is now. Thanks

John’s Wife

Which works best for you? Surely everybody paying in dribs and drabs over the whole month wouldn’t have as much of an impact for your finances? As amazing as it is that you want to make it the best it can be for us, we subscribe for you. I’m happy to do whatever works for you!

Chemaine M. Maxwell

Keep it on the first easier to remember when you will be charged and if you subscribe to multiple creators

Ronja

It's only for new subscribers, existing subscribers remain the same subscription method aka. 1st of the month. I definitely think it's better to have the new option because otherwise I, and many others never pledge after like half the month since you'll get charged soon after. You get more value for money overall.

Inky

You know Patreon should give this option to the supporter. Personally I like monthly because it let's me budget my support, and if I just want to test something to see if I even like it in my game, I don't have to remember that on the 12th I've got to make sure I jump back on here to cancel that one subscription. I can do that shit the day before the end of the month and TA-DA I'm done. Side note to the Patreon powers that be, (not you, lovely Lumpinou)... I've been around for a Long time, I've gone from being billed when I subscribed (which sucked), to on creation (which was like Huh what am I actually getting?), to monthly (which is the best imo) and swapping back and forth is a pain in the ass after years of doing it one way. So get it together Patreon! Make a decision and stick with it, or give the decision to the people who gives you their money. I switch up who I support regularly, and I play this one stupid game...and personally if I start getting random charges due to this change, I might just be done with Patreon all together, which is a shame because I enjoy being supportive to talented creators. Which is getting harder to do because of the drama in the community (doxing, bullying people out, stealing content, paywalls... which let's be honest you've helped facilitate some of this...) and all around being disappointed with people being so hypocritical over a game you ultimately play by yourself...don't be an outside thing that begins sucking even more fun out of a game.

Maria Benincasa

I personally would prefer to keep it as is.

Cammero Holt

I like how it is currently! (:

catamorphmagus

I would honestly prefer if patreon's were always charged on the same day of the month they joined. There have been a lot of times I didn't end up subscribing to someone because I knew it would just re-charge me in a couple weeks (or even days). For instance, it sucked subscribing to someone on Sep 30th just to be charged again the next day. :(

ChrissieYT

Personally I don't mind the current system (1st of the month charge) especially since you send out reminders every month. I've had a couple of instances in the past where I've pledged to a Patreon a few days before the end of the month, only to be charged again in a day or two (which isn't ideal) but I decided to pledge before the end of the month anyway (which was my choice). Since you clearly state that yours is set up to charge on the 1st, I think people can make their own informed choice about whether they'd want to pledge before the end of the month & be charged again on the 1st.

Drawnline

I think I would like the new system where if you pay on the 17 of the month that they will charge you on the 17 of every month be sometime when i see someone i want to join i have to wait unitl the beginning of the month to

Drawnline

join them I waited to add

I hope I'm not bothering you but I have a question: So my female sim has been trying to get pregnant many times and she always has negative test results so I kind of just let her be until she was fertile again but now in my gameplay/save it says she's on family leave but she's not even pregnant😟. I don't know if she is actually or maybe it's just a glitch because I never received any notification that she was expecting. Do you have any ideas what that could mean?

lumpinou

What mod is in charge of pregnancy in your game?

SugaArmyy1108

I think your mod is, but I have wicked whims installed also. And I figured it out after exiting out of the game, it was just a little glitch in my game lol

lumpinou

Because you said you were waiting for her to be fertile again wit sounded like you have WW in control - unless you went and gave her my cyclical option - which you would know because in that case there would be no periods. Glad the 'family leave' thing solved itself! :)

Britt Rose

Is ask to get tested supposed to send the partner sim? Every time I ask a sim that question, it sends the sim asking the question.

lumpinou

Should send the one asked not the asker

Britt Rose

I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if something is conflicting

lumpinou

How is it with other households? 🤔

Britt Rose

I just tried it with another household and it worked. Do you think it’s because my sims are in university?

Britt Rose

Okay just confirmed, it worked when I went off the lot. So I don’t think the option works in university housing .
