Avoiding Patreon Payment (Patreon)

I've already spoken to my $5 pledges about this, but I just wanted to let y'all know that I am keeping a close eye on people who delete their pledge at the end of the month and rejoin a few days later in a clear attempt to avoid paying for this Patreon content. 

I have unfortunately just had to block someone from my Patreon who I caught doing this.

I know most of you would NEVER do something like this, and I appreciate all your support SO much, even if you can only pay for one month and then have to drop out. But deliberately avoiding payment is so unfair on everyone who pays for this bonus/early content access, and unfair on me, who works really bloody hard haha! So I will be blocking anyone I see repeatedly deleting and re-pledging around the beginning/end of each month! I can check on Patreon to see who has actually paid each month, and this person I checked had not paid anything throughout July and August, no doubt because they just stopped pledging every time charging time rolls around!

This is such a huge flaw in the Patreon system, but I do know that it's only a tiny tiny percentage of people who do this.

Let me reiterate - if you cannot pay for this Patreon content, PLEASE don't support me here on Patreon! I wouldn't want anyone to feel obliged to pay for content when they need that money for other things.

Sorry for this boring and slightly grumpy message - Patreon is such a wonderful part of my life now, and I love sharing all this content with you, and I just want it to be fair for everyone.

Have a lovely weekend pals!
