New Patron Onboarding Post (Patreon)
Content
If you remember first signing up as a patron, my "thank you" page has always been some hilarious bullshit meme video that Victor made. I imagined patrons would search through the posts page to find what they have access to or info on what's going on, but a lot of those posts just sink down the page over time, and if you don't scroll far enough to figure out how I run the patreon, you might end up lost never really getting it forever.
To prevent this state of affairs, I have updated the Thank You page to have the following message, instructing new patrons on how the patreon works. Because this message wasn't there before, and I get questions all the time about how to find things, I will now duplicate it here so that anyone who is already a patron and would be assisted by this information will have awareness of its availability.
**IMPORTANT INFO**
$1+ Patrons: If you don't end up with access to the discord for some reason, message me on patreon and we can sort it out. You can find the archive link or any patron-exclusive content by sorting the "posts" page on my patreon according to your tier.
$2+ Patrons: Likewise, if you sort the "posts" page on my patreon by your tier, you will see all of the posts which you have access to. Every month, I add a new month's worth of year-old content to your tier's availability.
$5+ Patrons: 2 Weeks Review is sometimes late, sometimes early--we generally adjust the length of the podcast to compensate for any time we've missed.
$7+ Patrons: I haven't spent enough time deciding which projects I want to talk about, and if I just recorded a bunch of these back-to-back I could probably release them twice a month, but for now I'm just trying to get at least one out a month.
$15+ Patrons: I make a post once a month where I ask for everyone to submit their rants. As soon as you sign up for this tier or above, you can submit a rant to the current month's post. I will get it done before the month is over, but I might not have time to do much research on your subject, so it's in your best interest to only continue on this tier if you have things you want me to rant about which you are confident I will have something to say about it.
$40+ Patrons: As soon as I get $40 from you, you have bought a care pack. If you sign up and then DM my your address, you can freely unpledge and still receive a package, but if you don't send me your address, I will lose access to it (and the fact that you were on that tier) after you change tiers. I generally write the addresses on these towards the end of the month, and ship them on the last couple of days, as the contents of the care package are created over the course of the month itself. People usually receive them between a week or two of the next month. International shipping costs a minimum of $10, so I have to raise the price on international buyers to keep these profitable.
