I was talking with a patron the other day about the polls and they where concerned that the polls aren't fair enough. See the issue is that ideas that seem to involve my OCs have been getting picked on the regular. 

Now I don't add my ideas or my OCs to the poll, unless a patron asks of them or if there is only one person in the poll idea tier. I have been aware of this issue in the past, in fact its the reason I added the commission tiers, so maybe I should consider making more changes to make things more fair.

Really the only thing I can think of is to ban my own OCs, or copyrighted characters from the polls. What do you all think, what could I do to make the poll more fair to people?

Or maybe I could do something bigger, like removing the poll idea tier adding a few more commission slots, and having to come up with my own ideas for polls,

what do you all think?

Honestly I'd say add another commission slot or two and have the polls be your own ideas.

why not alternate between Your OCs and Other characters between months?

What Meta said. Maybe have a pole that is just your OCs one month and None OCs the next.

well cuz I would just post the ideas given to me from Patrons, some would suggest my OCs while others would suggest their own. It just never felt right to tell one patron not to use the characters they wanted to see

well cuz the polls have been made of ideas submitted by the patrons, i wasn't in control of what they suggested. Dunno how alternating each month dictating what the patrons can and cant suggest would really work

I don't want to see you ban your OCs outright, because they're really part of the reason I subscribe.

We like your characters, I wouldn’t ban your characters I would say one month focus on other people’s OCs/characters and the next month focus on your characters but it’s ultimately up to you

Honestly I feel like if patrons are nominating your characters, and most people are voting for your characters, that just sounds like a branding success to me! We love your OCs and wanna see as much of them as we can!

To honest I like see your characters more
