Just to make sure everyone is aware(although I'm sure you've heard by now), Patreon is making changes to what its patrons get charged per creator.  

They are shifting the processing costs onto you, so whatever your pledge is, it will be that +2.9% + $.35. So if you currently pay a dollar it will be like $1.38 I think.  

I know patreon did this as a way to get more support to the creators, but none the less, I'm not super excited.  It makes things more complicated then they need to be.  If you decide to drop your pledge because you disagree/don't support this, or you can't support this, I fully understand.  

A number of creators feel the same way, so maybe they'll change their minds!

I don't think that's how it works. This means that the money you get from EVERY patron is reduced by 2.9% + $0.35. Patrons themselves don't need to change their donation amount. If a patron donates $1, the money you get is reduced by $0.379 (0.029+0.35). If a patron donates $10, what you get is reduced by $0.64 (0.29+0.35). This means you proportionally get more money from few patrons with big donations than from many patrons with small donations. I hope that makes sense!

Ah wait, I just read the policy again. I'm not sure if MY understanding is correct now. *shuffles away slowly*

Yep and it's even worse for people like myself who are from Canada all funds are in US dollars so then count in the exchange rate and a $1.00 for me will now work out to something like $1.75 or something close to that depending on which ever day they take the money out. Either way I have already noticed I pay a lot more then someone who is helping from the US. But it doesn't stop me because I care enough to support you guys no matter how much Patreon tries to fuck everybody over. ^_^ ( I still say someone needs to design a Adult Only Patreon Site!! ) Come on people! someone must know some way of doing it?
