Heya! Well, my stance is this...Hi, quick question since we're on the subject of "sharing" your work, I try to find how you wish/want to do and the limitation you except but I can't find anything.
We may be in a "pirate" forum but I try to know a given artist official take on that, like Animopron allow sharing with two conditions: waiting at least one day before leak, not using he's own link because of the cost or Studio F.O.W. who encourage sharing (at the exception of Subverse related content).
I ask because I see most of your work is freely accessible onYou must be registered to see the linksfor example, so for "finished project/video" (not talking patreon WIP etc), can it be shared as long as we don't use your own link?
(and unrelated but I love your work!)
It hurts me to see my work pirated and shared. I am not going to lie. I work 6-7 days a week, at least eight hours a day, I pay five people now with the earnings from this work, and I have been brought to tears by the sheer frustration, challenges and difficulty I have faced during the production of these animations.
So, yeah, it hurts when someone just steals it and shares it with no regard to everything that goes into it. If it were me, I would prefer that no one share the work but I know that's not going to happen. So, I just try to be active in the community here and share my thoughts, feelings, and connect with people that enjoy the content just like I do on all other platforms.
With that in mind, I aim to make ALL my content free and accessible on pornhub, xvideos, xhamster, etc... However, I usually delay the "public" release a month or two. The difference is, those platforms do pay some ad-share revenue so the content continues to earn to help fund future animations.
As for using MY links, that really offends me on a different level because I actually have to pay for that bandwidth. And when the traffic exceeds the allowed limits, some of those sites suspend me and then my supporters, which make all these animations possible, cant access their content
SHORT VERSION: Piracy hurts me personally but there is nothing I can do about it. I will release ALL my content for free eventually. Making these animations is VERY expensive and time consuming. Don't use, share, or distribute the links I share with my Patreons because I have to PAY for that bandwidth.
