Well, to my surprise, the copyright situation on my videos has changed substantially, so I need to tell you about it so you can make the decision of whether or not you still want to support me on Patreon. 

OK, so, Warner Bros first doubled down on parts 2 and 6 of my Teen Titans series, before I put up Part 7. This basically means that I disputed their copyright claim and they came back to me and said, "No, we stand by our decision." This led me to believe they would do that for all the videos.

However, today, they released their copyright claims on parts 3, 4, 5, and 7. I am really confused as to why they decided to do that, but hey, I'm not complaining. I honestly thought there was no chance they would do that. So now I am re-disputing parts 2 and 6 and waiting to see what comes of that. I still haven't received any money from the time that they spent being monetized by Warner Bros, but I'm assuming that I will receive that in the next couple days.

Anyway, I wanted to let you all know, since I'm sure some of you may have only backed me on here because of those specific issues I was going through. While more issues may pop up in the future, this has ended up being not nearly as bad as it seemed, at least for the time being. Regardless of if you decide to still support me financially this way or not, thank you so much. The fact that so many of you cared enough to back me on here . . . it's amazing. 

Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, or if you just want to talk about something in the replies to this :) I hope you're having an awesome day

That's awesome that they did that! As for me, I'm gonna stick around supporting you on here, you deserve it!

You deserve each and every penny that everyone is giving to you

I supported you after the first episode came out because people who make quality stuff should be paid for it. Vote with your wallet and all that. I wanted to see more so I'm doing what I can to help that happen :)

Lowart

Thank you :) That means a lot. The fact that some people, such as yourself, are still going to stick around despite this specific copyright thing being a lot less bad than originally anticipated makes me really happy ^_^

Ludwig Säfström

Huge congratulations!! And nah, I’m here to stay for sure :D You have already grown since I found you (when the second Teen Titans video released), and I have a feeling you will grow a lot more. I want to be part of that ride, for any great content creator out there. Besides, it is always a pleasure to support someone who is wholeheartedly thankful and humble about it! Which you definitely are, and you deserve all the support a 100% Lowart!

Although I did become a Patron of yours partly because of WB's bullshit, it did spur me into action because I like your video series. I was in a bit of a financial rut that kept me a little apprehensive about my recent spending habits, but 5 bucks a month won't break my bank. Keep up the good work.

I came to support for the Teen Titans series and for the hopes to vote to get Avatar to be the next series. It seems I missed the vote but, hey, it won by a landslide anyways haha. I'll be sticking around for that. Looking forward to it!

I’m in it for the long haul my man. Hearing about your copyright troubles just motivated me more to support a quality channel that should get the attention it deserves. We need more people who analyze media and literature, to teach everyone the important messages and meaning behind these works of art. Never underestimate the importance of your content. Analyzing characters and stories helps us to analyze ourselves and our own lives, getting the building blocks to learn more about each other.

I was already a Patron far before you started making videos on Teen titans. :) I, no-doubt like many others, support you because you make content I truly enjoy, and always want to see more of. Now that so many people are supporting you, I doubt they'll just take that away because your situation is getting better; that's what we wanted, after all. Besides, you never know how things will go in the future, so having some 'backup support' is always good.

Lowart

Aw thanks! That means a lot :) I'm especially happy that you've noticed improvement, since I always want to get better at what I'm doing ^_^

Lowart

Oh awesome! I'm happy the series you wanted got chosen, even if you missed the vote. And I'm happy you're looking forward to it ^_^ Thanks, bud

Lowart

Thank you :) I agree about what you said with analyzing media. It's definitely important on that level, and I'm happy that it connects with you that way.

Lowart

Yeah, you've been around these parts for a while haha Which is awesome, and really appreciated. And I'm definitely happy that it seems you're right about people not pulling out of the patron because of the improved situation. I mean, I totally understand if people do, but it's still nice to see that the support goes beyond that (though I never really doubted it did, anyway) ^_^ You're definitely correct about a backup plan, too. Right now it's good, but who knows what might happen?

Lowart, I was hooked on your channel before you had a patreon account, was one of the poeple encoraging you to get one when you brought up the idea, and really want to help you grow and avoid, if poisble, things like this copyright argument (yes I still want to see you do Batman and maybe Batman Beyond, but I know it's best to stay away from WB shows for awhile) Also I really want to see the rest of the FMA comparasion

Lowart

Thanks, bud! Yeah, it's awesome that you've been around for such a long time and been so encouraging ^_^ The FMA comparison, of course, is still in the works, but it will be coming back better than ever :)

Meow, I mean, I intended to become a patreon a bit ago. All this did was give me that push I needed to actually do it. Not sure if I'll participate much, but I'll be sure to meow on videos and jazz.

Alagos The Guardian

Still going to support you. From one University student to another, idk how you can put so much time aside to put this much effort into quality content, it's pretty incredible. Thank you. :) Also I'd love to see you cover the 2003 TMNT. I remember it enough to think it was maybe as good as Titans or Avatar, but never see anyone talk about it. Anyway, have a good day.

Concise Mike

One of the big reasons why I wanted to contribute was because of your transparency, and this post just reaffirms that for me. Keep doing what you do, I'm glad to be here.

Missy Curtis

I appreciate how communicative you are here on Patreon. That’s my deciding factor to stay on really. Anyone who actually puts effort into the Patreon platform rather than just sitting back on it deserves it. :)

Lowart

Thanks for the meow haha I'm happy to have on involved, bud! Thanks for your kindness and support :)

Lowart

I really appreciate that. Thank you. And yes, I really want to cover TMNT 2003. (I was honestly disappointed it did so poorly in the poll I did lol). I just rewatched the first season and it is really fun!

Lowart

Happy to have you here, bud! Thanks for your kindness and for the support all around. It means a lot :) I'm happy that the transparency connects with you, too. I think it's important to be open and honest about these things.

Lowart

nooooo my computer is still being repaired so I couldn't make a video on this monumental occasion ... I guess there's always next year D:

Lowart

Yeah, I think it's important to be at least somewhat involved on here ^_^ It's more fun that way
