October Update
🕑 Added 2016-10-01 21:13:36 +0000 UTC
Another month, another 6 pages of BnE. And I've had a lot going on behind the scenes. Stretch goals are being hit at what feels like lightning speed right now. I've been working with Watsup to both get color pages out in a reasonable time while also doing side stuff for you guys, doing serious anatomy studies and clearing out my personal queue.
I released 4K versions of the 4 page Surody commission here. There's a 5 image set from Grim-Wolf coming too if you're interested. Ideally as this process gets streamlined the amount of content will only increase. I admit that this whole experience has been a huge eye opener. This is a lot of work.
The Discord channel is super fun and super successful. We're currently at 35 members, and we certainly welcome more. Patrons get access to WIPs occasionally (page 19 is there if you want to check it out) and really it's just a good time. Link is below.

I'm paying for now to keep Watsup on. The polls have spoken and we're so close anyway, really. But aside from that I'll begin making some improvements to the website. Technical. Security. Graphical. Feature. I'd really love some input regarding what people would find helpful. A page dropdown menu is probably something I should work on, yes?
Lastly, extremely important if your payment was declined
Fraud and nonpayment is starting to become a huge issue. My entire Patron list looks a bit like this.
As a result if you are flagged for fraud or your payments were declined, please fix this as soon as you can. This is not only unfair to me, it's unfair to the hundred other people who support me and are looking forward to stretch goals. I have limited power as precharging is not available to me.
If you are still in fraud or declined status after 2 months with 0 pledged, you will be blocked. I really have zero choice in this.

"It's only available for monthly campaigns. Since I charge per comic update, I can't use it." OH DEAR. I know you are busy but if you get the chance you should definitely send Patreon a note about this, because it looks like one of the most abusable angles on their model especially given the excerpt from your back end which you just posted ... yikes :( I guess in desperately looking for some silver lining it is a sign you are finally big and exciting enough to be "worthy" of fraud and theft on scale.

You're fine Berrie. Patreon will send you an email asking you to correct if there's a problem. Most of the issue is with people doing this on purpose. And like I said, I'm not going to block anyone before giving them two months to figure it out.
