Is there a point when SS on their own will consider pausing payments to a creator due to inactivity, or does it fully depend on reports from customers?

I guess there could be a point (when enough complaints where filed) that they cancel all subscriptions for an inactive account, but in the first place it's your responsibility to manage your subscriptions and payments.

Nah I could almost guarantee that will never happen. They would lose whatever percentage they take from monthly payments, they make money by not doing anything about creators that are inactive.

That was my initial thought as well and tbh after 5 months of nothing it seems validated, then again I'm also part of the 'problem' and throwing money away since I'm part of the 600ish dollars (before SS's cut) Nef is currently getting. :D

I think it would also be complicated for any support platform (the "money counts" argument above notwithstanding) to actually track down inactive creators since many mostly communicate with their support using third party apps like Discord, and unless Patreon/Subscribestar puts people into these groups they have no idea what's going on there. They might impose some rules like "1 Patreon post per x time", however the "x time" would probably be pretty arbitrary and maybe not a "one size fits all" depending on the type of project you are supporting.

From the SS FAQ:

What should I do if a Star stops posting content?

This is not common but can happen. Normally when a Star puts his/her page on pause there will be a message that explains the situation. In this case, your recurring payment remains frozen (on pause) until the Star returns and resumes their activity. So, you are not being charged for the officially paused subscription.

If the Star has not made an announcement about the pause, you may want to contact this Star and find out what is happening. As a result, you may receive a refund from the Star.

Also, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Furthermore, while canceling, you will be asked for the reason why you wish to cancel. Each and every answer will be counted towards the Star's credibility and may have consequences.

More on our policy regarding refunds you can find on dedicated page .

He officially logged off of the Midlife Crisis Discord thread. Since January, he had either been on "Online" (though not participating in discussions) or "Idle", but now he is just flat out offline and has been for a few days now. So, either A) he logged off manually. B) Whatever device(s) he was using for Discord is/are off/out of juice.
Though he has disappeared (multiple) times before, this is the first time I've seen him full-on logged off of Discord...

he did say family problems, could have escalated and might have just run away to a jungle

My guess is a forced Windows Update logging him off / restarting the computer.

Yeah, it's very possible that he wasn't actually using Discord at all, but was logged into it in background. OS update would log would log out and easy not to notice if not using actively. If he actually left the server that would be something very different. First read of that post I was thinking left server. That would be bad

I went back and read the thread on Discord a bit, and appears someone on the thread tried to call him via Discord. Now, I am not going to assume as to the "why" Nefastus logged off, or whether his computer updated, or whatever theory is here, but if I were a dev behind an understandable wall of anonymity, I would have logged off, too, if someone overstepped and tried calling me. I understand folks are worried about the Nef's well being, or the future of MLC, but that is not fucking cool.

Someone gave me a tip once to just still write, but write on a different story. Stay creative and let the issue blocking you dissolve.
L Ron Hubbard {as in "Scientology", yes} had four typewriters - and he would keep a SF story in progress in one, a Western in another, a mystery in the third and an adventure story in the fourth. Whn he got cold on one, he'd move over the next.

Henry Kuttner and his wife C. L. Moore would start stories and then leave them in the typewriter if they got cold; the other would come along, read thhe completed pages lying next to the typer, and pick up where the other left off. Often, re-reading the completed manuscripts, neither could remember/tell where they changed authors...

And another one gone... with ... the same excuse as other one.

So adios and thanks for the ride I guess ?

But if he just leaved like that, I despise him, stopping loving what you do ? ok happen to anyone, but silently leaving to continue to receive money from your fan for something you will not continue ?

Only deep shit do that.

This dev has had health problems in the past. Hopefully he isn't dead or in the hospital again.

If this game is truly abandoned, it wasn't by choice. No need to throw insults at him.
