Hey, if you think of it that pretty smart, you can wait for the update in music instead of waiting in silence !!!

And Patreon will stop collecting money? That's won't gonna happen.

That's the problem, Patreon takes actually quite the big amout of the money, so they would be stupig to stop something like this.
Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I still believe in people's (and patron's) self-responsibility.
Personally, I wouldn't pledge to a project that has gone silent for more than a month without giving reasons.
If I pledge once a month, I should at least get a monthly status update in return - simple as that.
When I see people still pledging to projects that have been silent for several months, I'm always kind of torn between admiring their loyalty and deriding their craziness...

Right now, 68 patrons contributing $344 USD gross per month and dropping.
As much as it's a shame, they brought their downfall on themselves (Hopefully only temporarily) which could've been easily fixed. In around 3 1/2 weeks it can be marked as abandoned and officially join an illustrious group with Aorrta and Gumdrop...

Nothing that you should concern yourself with if you care about decent quality VN's and dev's. It's much better if you didn't find out for your own sakeI've seen a lot of Aorrta and Gumdrop...who the fuck are they and what games did they do ?
Out of curiosity I tried to report them to patreon. And -what a surprise- patreon doesn't give a shit about it, as long as they receive their monthly share. No matter how you report, you'll always get this message:
"To fix this issue, please contact the creator directly. If that doesn't work and you want to change or delete your pledge, you can learn how to do that
What a joke.

This is not a surprise after all, they own a business and it's kinda normal to act like this, though nobody forces no one to pay for something they host. But it was nice and fair if they will mark these kind of situation with something like... "not trustable" or something, or... "last activity x days ago"...

don't want to sound like a complete asshole, but is it really that hard to check the date of the last post of the creator and do the math?

I mean to be displayed on their page, up, a fixed banner to be visible, maybe some people did not even read the dates, who knows...

Patrons always discover VN's at the strangest times so maybe they're clinging onto hope of some sorts. Aorrta's pledges jumped because he said something so that should tell you as much as you need to know about some patrons! I mean maybe a big emergency might have happened to someone at Erosion but an easy patron post would've quelled all this talk that we're doing.
As much as I'm looking forward to them being marked as abandoned to officially end this nonsense, for the record, they should never have been in this position in the first place and this is a huge disappointment that they will join some brethren they should never have been associated with if they did the simple things like talk.
True that people don't read dates etc but I'll put it this way - With the updated OP's since the new year or February, many OP's have a "Thread Updated" date and you can see here it doesn't have one...
It also doesn't take too much time to try and search through to see when the last update was/the last few pages here to see all the "OMG they haven't updated since the new year" to figure that out but I get it people don't necessarily think to do that though.
