Keeping the 8K is theft if he chooses to push it and that's probably why they kick people making a decent amount of money to steal it. Sorry but I have a very low opinion of Patreon.
Yeah if you donated than contact Patreon demand refund for the last month at least! If they refuse than tell them your going to report it for fraud! As you paid for services/product not rendered because Patreon canceled the developer.

This is probably the real reason Patreon is starting to get banned for funding because they are probably going through a lot of fraud with the shit Patreon pulls!

Disappointed that this got kicked from Patreon.

But yeah, I don't think it's for the actual kids. But all the loli characters.

And honestly, they could kick the game for having mind control too, as being mind controlled isn't consensual. Mind control games are always just waiting to be kicked. Dreams of Desire got booted recently too, and that game has been complete for years.

Fucked up that patreon intends to keep the 8k$ left in his wallet after deactivating his page. I bet having one more month to work through this would've been nice.

This is not how patreon works. When a creator is banned, patreon attempts to refund the money to patrons. They don't keep it.

From what I understand his account isnt banned, its just in some locked limbo
When i open my Patreon it´s say:
This page is under review.
and on my Payment Site, still say next payment 1. march.
But i don´t think it´s fair from Patreon, when they only "reviewing the Page", to cut off the Owner of the Site.
On Discord say:"Patreon has completely cut off my ability to interact with my site. I can't make posts, reply to comments, send messages or issue refunds."

It's theft but I assume anyone willing to challenge it would have to face a nightmare in the courts as many indie devs are unlikely to read the full terms of service agreements instead of just clicking ok like a normal person. Maybe they "refund" the money but without an accountant going over the books I wouldn't be surprised if some cooking is going on in the background.

As a pure middleman, I do not see how patreon can afford to attack their userbase in the name of corporate profits. I guess as a 4billion$ company they just exist for shareholders to fuck them now.
Patreon just kicks back and lets the money come in, they get 5 or 10% for doing nothing. As long as they keep the payment processors and their investors happy a $10K a month is chump change to what they make for having poultry web hosting service, not even dealing with storage as other sites handle that, with limited outsourced tech support.

All this talk of loli characters is something I don't see at all. To me, the difference between the actual kids and I assume short/small women should be obvious to me. The mind control narrative doesn't work with me due to it being desire surfacing rather than rewriting minds regarding the girls.

End case being the ban is more about lack of nuance than outright overzealous envelope pushing.

Eh, turns out I found a couple of spare hours these this weekend after all, downloaded the game and have begun my return to it and my venture into collecting evidence for a story analysis. Only on day four yet and already have several pages' worth of notes and a somewhat uncomfortable feeling of familiar vibes from the player character... which is odd, since I don't recall disliking him the first time I played. May be because of how closely I'm paying attention this time around.

Anyway, I just wanted ask a quick question (and possibly confirm a suspicion of mine) before I proceed with the story: do you have to use Control on Lily to be able to do more than work for her?

This is the only game so far to get its hooks into me so well that I became a monthly supporter. With the recent 'attack' from Patreon (see link in game description for more on that) I am humbly asking anyone and everyone with a couple dollars to spare to join as a supporter on subscribe star.
Yes its a koikatsu based game but the things the dev manages to do with it are pretty impressive. Honestly I can't say enough good things about this game and given that it is ArcGames first game they have worked on, I can definitely see amazing things in their future if they can just get the support they need.
Their discord is a really chill place, lots of fun people just having a good time and the mods keep up really well on keeping the shit posters and trouble makers out. Arc himself chats with us regularly and baring any emergencies or major events which he will notify us about ahead of time, always releases updates on time.

I don't post very much on here, not because I dislike the games or content or anything like that but just because I am a rather introverted person with anxiety so putting myself out there in public forum like this is really difficult but for this game, I am willing to take that risk.

These are the kind of Devs that deserve our support. The game is still free on his site of course, being a supporter gets you access to new content earlier and a decent assortment of other bonuses. Give the game a shot, if you like it then join on up and help protect the Corrupted Kingdoms!

OK, rant over, please do consider supporting if you are able to though, the entire community around CK appreciates it.

Another reason to dislike patreon. The earlier the devs move on to subscribestar (who could also add some more payment methods) the better imo.

I know patreon is petty but this is next level stupid. I know they refunded the past month to the subscribers but they basically stole the remaining money from his wallet. Did I understand that right?
