Good news, Patreon page is back online.
Bad news, they now justify their witch hunt.

Joseph McCarthy would be proud.
Maybe it's time to look into getting this game onto Steam. It's probably less of a pain than Patreon these days. As far as I know, the only things they don't allow are school settings and underage characters.

Winter Memories is on Steam. Steam gives no fucks about what's in your game as long as you put the lewd content behind a patch.
Also Trope's been working on getting part 1 ready for a Steam release.

Well depends on the school setting. A university like in

is fine but a lot of the games with "colleges" wouldn't pass muster. (Seriously, if your college consists of a single building with an athletic field and a gym as well as being run by a principal with a PTA instead of Deans overseen by a President and a board of trustees You're not a college.) As I said before though I do think you should put this on Steam.

Everybody knows that's bullshit, but my page has been closed for 3 days. Let's say I lost 10% of my monthly income if they extend every suscription for those 3 days. A small income dev can't file in court for that 10%, even less in another country. I wouldn't even do that if they closed the page indefinitely because I'm sure I would need years of lost income to pay for a decent lawyer in the US.
That's their main weapon. They can close pages with impunity because no one will denounce them.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo:cry:

I cut the link to Discord too at that same time. They said that things posted on a dev's Discord by players could get the page banned if the Discord was linked to Patreon. Total madness.

I used gwalc post for the OP.

I know it's a "pirate" site but, I would love to see F95 provide a simple "contribution" option. I've never been a fan of "solicitor" sites like patreon or even Steam and I use them as seldom as possible.
I see some devs have "Buy me a coffee" think that is a one time donation site, not sure though.

Buy Me a Coffee is a one-time donation site (although you can subscribe to recurring payments), but it isn't an option either, they deactivated my account because they don't support adult games, even if the description of my page is:

I will only send them the receipts for toilet paper. I need a ton of rolls to clean that bullshit from my retinas :D
If it were me, I'd send them receipts for item combinations that are liable to cause concern.
Duct tape, knife and a shovel.
Dog treats, anal lube and a baseball bat.
Draino, syringe + needles and a body bag.

But then again, I am a bit off the wall even at the best of times...

I contacted them the same day (May 21st). I still haven't got an answer, although I wrote them several more times.
They didn't even comply with what they said, since instead of refunding the supporters, they sent the balance to my bank account...
