That doesn't make sense, as tons of games here have Ipatch links in their OP, and still have Patreon pages. They must have been led to believe that there was a link to the Ipatch, somewhere on your Patreon, or a link from there to here. Don't see why they would care what is on a pirate site. That isn't even their purview. Just keep your Patreon page clean, and they should be fine. Right? Stupid Patreon nonsense.
With the increase in SubScribeStar popularity lately, I can't see you losing a lot of support if you dumped Patreon, and went with them, but I can understand that can be a risk.
