TOXICITY IS SURREAL!! (Patreon)

To all the Patrons who've been so amazing, I truly apologize for you having to read this post! I never thought that I would get fired up over something like this but, after months of going through the b/s, it's time to speak up! 

I do my best to read all the comments and messages on this Patreon but recently, I've had no desire to. For the most part, I'm seeing a bunch of people complain about everything one can complain about. It makes me wonder if this is even worth doing... 

Whether people want to believe it or not, this entire reaction channel started as a fun activity that I could share along with the internet. As something that I could do at my own pace with my significant other. Eventually, it molded into continuously pumping content out for the subscribers on YT who just couldn't get enough!! 

The demand for the content increased so much that it began to disrupt our daily lives. In some ways, this was a good thing and we are extremely grateful to have gotten to this point. However, as we began to increase the volume of content, our overall happiness decreased. 

This Patreon was created for community & exclusivity. I wanted to connect with fans on a more personal level and put out content just for this community - content that I otherwise would not have created. Additionally, it was created as a means to help support us in continuing to create this content and a faster rate. I NEVER promised an upload schedule. At some point, I arbitrarily decided to begin posting Mondays - Fridays before 1PM ET. It's been a lot of work and for the most part, we have fun doing it. But, it takes a lot of time and energy. In fact, this has been harder than any job that I've ever done.  

Nonetheless, at some point the Patreon became filled with toxic people. People who not only disrespect me and Madison but other Patrons. It's one thing to disrespect us. I don't care as much. But, I draw the line when these people disrespect the community we've built and the other Patrons in it. To the toxic people, I don't care how much $$$ you pledged to this Patreon. We want you out!! There is nothing more important to me then having an enjoyable experience on this Patreon.

I've permabanned some people over the last few weeks. I'm going to continue to do this whenever I see fit. All of this should be an enjoyable experience. The world is stressful enough as it is. The last thing we all need are a buncha dummies ruining our happiness.

Thank you to those who are here to make this enjoyable for us. We do this for you and we truly love and appreciate you!! See you in a few hours with the next upload!
