    Jeeze............some of what you said follows what I was trying to explain to people of my bullying at FA. People who wish to "do bad things" simply create new accounts and keep doing the things they were doing. And I hate that people do that.............and it sucks you had to go through it with something that you actually earn income on. :<

    Someone told me once you can use credit card through Patreon and I should honestly look into that one day............... :)

      Yeaaah. It's something that has been happening since the beginning of patreon and it's rather unfortunate.

      And yes! You can use a credit card on patreon. :)

        As long as people can "hide their faces and identities", they feel like they can get away with anything...........most of these people probably wouldn't try to pull a similar con if they met the person and paid them with cash. Ah, sometimes I wish the old days still worked! XD I think people would feel more guilty if they actually spoke with the person they were dealing with face-to-face.

        I will definitely need to look into it. Because if I can use my credit card, then I can support some artists I love. :D

          It's true. Ah well. Nothing i can do about it atm but be diligent and just keep catering to my fans and paying peeps :) Screw the greedy jerks! It's not like my patreon is a paywal. People there just get stuff i otherwise wouldn't be able to make, where as all my finished art does get posted at the usual web resolutions for all to see for free, which i certainly don't have to do but want to. SO.

          I hope it works out for ya! I switch my pledges around to different people all the time because there are just so many people i want to throw money at XD

            I think you have a good attitude about it............and about using Patreon in general. You try to make it a good experience for you and the users. I think that shows your good business sense. :)

            Thanks! (I should try harder to stop being afraid of the internet...........not everyone out there are jerks--the jerks are just louder! XD) I know what you mean.............there are so many artists I would throw so much money at......................................! :D

                I completely agree. There's a friend I made at FA in 2012 and we still talk regularly be e-mail today! :D

        I'm always happy to see nice, good artists get support. I think you are one of the few I know that pretty consistently keeps up with a ton of different sites/galleries, so I really admire your tenacity. It must be exhausting.

        Keep up the good work! And may your following continue to grow! ^^

          Thank you so much! It most definitely is. >.<
          I'm always trying to find ways to lessen the amount of time spent on that sorta thing but honestly i like being busy.

          Glad you like my work and thank you again! :3
