I have to agree mate. I've noticed Patreon is a good place for thieves to ply their trade and that for some reason Patreon never hold those that don't abide by the "contractual" understanding between creator and subscriber accountable. If someone asks for $10 per month for a certain service and that service isn't provided then Patreon are accountable too if they take their cut and don't enforce the contractual obligations between creator and subscriber.
Even if those subscribers are unwitting or even willing participants they have a right to recompense for obligations not being met on a monthly basis.
Patreon needs to start doing something to stop the BS creators milking people and start helping the bonafide creators who give their subscribers their all every month.
Stop the leeches and help the providers.
i do not believe you understand how it works!
patreon provides a service for suporters so they may suport the art music content or whatever they want to see more of!
your argument makes sense down the line on the distribution of resources,
but your approach would 9 out 10 times only result on the destruction of creation instead of suporting it
its like all the ngo´s and unhumanitarian aid provided to helpless people...
90% ends in the hands of burocrats warlords thieves politicians and swindlers ...
but at least 10% reaches those in need, without it those people would be without anything!
at the same time without those resources those who keep them oppresed would have less resources to work with
thus your instinct to provide a helping hand extends the oppression and suffering of those you want to help in the long run
so teach a man to fish that costs 10 times more resources and times and he will eat for a lifetime
but to learn when you are hungry its kind of hart and they need fish today and tomorrow perhaps if they are still alive...
