...if you got an email from me recently asking you to up your pledge, that did not come from me. This on is another brilliant move from the bean counters at Patreon.

This one really pisses me off! Further proof that I need to set up my own site and payment system.

Let me know if you received one of these emails. I’m curious.

Thanks you all for your support! Sorry for the bullshit. More comics and content soon!

Have not gotten that, but thanks for the heads up!

I have not gotten one either. Didn't patreon report an uptick and artists and pledges recently? Why the begging?

Since they're publicly traded. Investors want more money than last year. Like how Game companies make record high profits one year, but the next year they're still good but not higher. So they consider it a failure and layoff dozens of people. It's always about wanting more.

Nope, not got anything like that myself, though I know not to hold it against you if I do :)

The Patreon business model has a lot of problems and they’ve pulled some sneaky crap like this before. The site is very useful and convenient, but if they keep pulling stunts like this then eventually I’ll have to set up my own site, which I’m already looking into.

"Let me know if you got one" is a little ambiguous. I didn't get a note, but I do have my own payment site for webmarketing. To the latter, it's pretty easy to set up. You just need a payment link (PP or whatever) and a service like eJunkie to deliver your goods. Simple.

Whoops. Good point. I meant if you got a message from Patreon pretending to be me, let me know. Yeah, once I get the site set up, it’s just a matter of creating a PayPal link and an exclusive access page. I need to build build the site first though, and I’m dragging my feet a bit since I’d rather focus on the comic. 😅 Thanks!

I haven't gotten one of these, as far as I can recall. If I did get something like this from Patreon, I'd reply and say, "I already upped my pledge to Stereoscope Comics--so up yours!" :D

I'm VERY curious where you got this information, as it's extremely worrying. I couldn't dig up anyone on Reddit commenting on it, but the last thing I would want to do right now is spam my patrons asking for more than they're already giving, and would be livid if Patreon did it while making it look like it came from me.

I received a request a couple of months ago.
