Subscription Billing Update - Wall of Text (Patreon)

Next batch of pages will be ready soon - I'm grateful for everyone who's been enjoying the comic updating again. But, there will also be changes happening to the campaign, as well, which I'll be starting to set up in November.You've likely already heard news about Patreon requiring campaigns to switch to subscription billing by November 1st, to be compliant with Apple's purchasing systems. This change won't affect existing members to a campaign, but new members will be billed under the new system, and any campaign that hasn't switched by the 1st will do so automatically.Because of this, I'm taking this mandate as an opportunity to update the reward tiers in November to a system I've been considering for awhile: a single custom pledge tier, for members to pay what they want or are able. Rewards I'm able to do in the future (Such as bonus art and Short Stories) will be offered to all members.

I'm changing to a single tier because I want to maximize the time I have for art to focus working on the comic, so it can update more often, and allow readers to still have the flexibility to choose a membership amount that works best for them.

It will be similar to when the tiers were last updated, current pledges won't be cancelled, but once fully updated new members will only have access to the custom pledge tier, and current members will be able update their pledged tier to what they prefer. This does mean the Cameo Appearances and Wall of Awesome portraits will no longer be offered as rewards when the tiers are fully updated. But, as always, rewards that have already been pledged and paid for will be fulfilled - cameos that have been paid for will continue to appear in rotation in the FE comic, and the Wall of Awesome portraits will stay posted. I'm currently reviewing and updating my personal records of rewards pledged, and will be reaching out to members in November to confirm my records of their rewards owed match up with their pledges. If you have any questions about your pledge or rewards, please reach out and let me know.I am sad to end the portrait and cameo rewards, it's been a huge part of what makes this comic special. I love seeing the different characters and Fursonas you guys come up with, and creating ways they can appear in different scenes. And there is still a large queue of cameos to rotate through, there's going to be more creative appearances in the future - but I will miss it, when the rotation is caught up.

Thank you to everyone who's supported this campaign for so long, for making the world of FE that much more real and fun.
