I’d like to confirm the changes i’m making to the tiers as my last post was quite confusing. Thank you to the friends who helped me out when coming up with the tier selections, I appreciate you guys!

My last post was a bit confusing, to sum things up, I wanted to make the tiers that people paid more for receive more money/perks since they are pledging more money, so I ended up switching things around that didn’t make much sense when comparing the length of the content, it wasn’t consistent.

The idea here is to make the tiers as fair as possible while also making people with higher tiers receive more benefits, I hate that I didn’t establish this earlier but I think this makes the most sense! I don’t expect you all to jump around but the option is there if desired!

So, the tier changes will be as followed:

Small:

- Reality shows (Shows like Mapo Hipster, iKON TV for example)

- Kdramas

- Mini shows

- Album reactions

- Live stage reactions

- Short additional content

Medium:

- Kdrama reactions

- Variety show reactions

- Survival show reactions (Road to Kingdom, Goganzi etc)

- Anime reactions (resuming tba)

Big:

- Guaranteed reaction request (resuming tba)

- Vlive reactions

The changes took hours of thought and it was to make the tiers more even to the pricing. I will likely not be changing anything else for a long time. I will not be beginning a drama/survival show until after the break on the 20th, so I'd advise you all to wait until I begin posting to determine if you want to upgrade or not. The choice is yours. I will be starting Extracurricular or Road to Kingdom, I’ll do a poll seeing if you guys want to focus on a drama or a survival show for the next batch of frequent videos.

I was gonna write this long explanation explaining the long face but it really all comes down to consistency. I don’t think it’s reasonable for me to upgrade to $10 because you aren’t consistent. I understand you need to make each tier worth while, but I don’t think it’s fair that you start all these shows and don’t finish them/take forever. I think you should at least show us you can stick to a schedule for at least a month or 2 before you roll out these new perks please.

Will we still be able to access the content we paid for at the start of the month? (I signed up recently for dramas)

Aw 😔 I understand why you changed things around and I really don’t want to come off as complaining because I like watching stuff with you. But other then BTS content I watched Kdramas and anime with you. Sometimes I checked out other content like album reviews but everything else I wasn’t interested in. I’m sorry 😔 but I can’t upgrade a tier just for anime and Kdrama. I’m going to stick around in the small tier and see what you post for now.

this timing is quite awkward for me but i’m glad for anyone else who is able to sustain them patreon monthly thing if they upgrade. i believe after this month i’ll have to take some gaps from being a patron because even 5 dollars becomes hard for me. i’m glad to see others are enjoying it though!

i just wanted to say that i rlly appreciate ur upload schedule and everything and ill probably upgrade next month lol. also for anyone who may not like the changes, i get tht too, but trust when i say anthony does NOT drag stuff out lol. i was a patron to another youtuber who i wont name who only did 2 episodes of a drama PER MONTH and that was the only addition from the $5 to the $10 tier LOLL. this mans dedication to actually getting stuff out at a decent time is w o n d e r f u l. i think this shift in content makes alot of sense tbh 🤷‍♀️

what would categorize as a variety show? like would run bts be considered a reality or variety?

anthonytoo

No worries! This wasn't meant to be a post to make you guys feel like you HAVE to upgrade or anything. I just wanted to change things so that it made more sense for those who pledged to that higher tier. I only made the change because I was reminded by a new patron who upgraded and realized they didn't get anything more and that happened in the past as well, so I wanted to prevent that. Thanks for still wanting to stick around! I'll be coming back and diving right into everything as soon as I get home on the evening of Oct. 20, posting on the 21! (new stuff that is)

anthonytoo

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, I don't mean to make anything hard for you guys. Definitely put yourself first, as always!

anthonytoo

they told me run bts was a variety show. - but i was gonna keep run at small because it's like 30-40 mins. youtube also told me they miss bts reactions so imma hop back on that. it's been hard trying to bounce around and do everyone's request so my apologies to people like you who have been waiting on more run or bon voyage 😔

anthonytoo

Thank you so much Kerriane... I appreciate your opinion on the change and your positivity regarding it as well. I've been working on keeping the uploads going up lately and I'm glad that you are content with it. I thought I was watching things at pretty normal pacing tbh, when I was throwing out a bunch of eps of IOTNBO I felt like I was rushing through the show lol. I guess it's just different people's opinions.

Angie

thank you for the update anthony!!! :) so excited for more ikon and bts, i'm mainly here for the kpop and i've been missing bts content lol (though still support regardless).

anthonytoo

Haha Angie! I called you and spendalyn out in the comment above yours! I FEEL yall, I hear yall too. It's not tooo much going on for the videos going up while I'm gone but when I get back... on the 21 I'm going in, seriously! Thank you so much

Dee

Hmm I pretty much became a Patreon of yours for more iKON content, however is it possible to suggest cut up/ edited / highlight reactions of Kdramas, Anime and Variety shows for small tier instead too, a few anime/ tv show reactors of mine do this for $5 tier and keep $10 tier for full length/ uncut reactions and are normally a week/ episode or 2 ahead of $5 tier, if you know what I mean. Either way it is your account and I’m fine as long as I get to watch more iKON TV reactions. Thank you for the update

anthonytoo

Hey Dee! Will be resuming iKON TV with top priority when I get back home on the 20th! You'll certainly be getting more, I prioritized finishing Mapo Hipster because it was started before that. Your suggestion is chopping up smaller videos for the small tier, I never thought of that, certainly worth considering. Thanks for your opinion!

I'm pretty much a lurker and rarely post comments but I've been supporting your patreon for over a yr so it sucks that this is probably gonna be my last month with you. This is not completely because of the change of tiers but it does play a major part in my decision. Tbh I'm conflicted because on one hand you were my first patroen I supported and if I weren't drowning in financial problems I would probably still be a $5 patreon but $10 is too much for me to pay for just one person (I now have 2 more patreons that I support). I'm honestly only here because of the kdramas and other kpop/korean related content so it sucks for me but i can understand why you changed things around and I'm not one of those people who complain about things like this because at the end of the day no one is forcing people to change tiers or to even be a supporter in the first place. I'm writing all this just to let you know that even though I hardly ever say something in the comments its been fun here, your still one of my favorite youtubers and maybe in a couple months ill be back but we shall see. As I'm typing this I've decided that I'm going to wait until you start posting again before I decide whether I'm going to stay on the small tier or leave completely but regardless I'll still be on youtube and discord occasionally.

anthonytoo

Totally, thank you for your 13 months or so here! I'd totally say to take your personal finances and prioritize them! I don't want to inconvenience anyone which is why I was so hung up on even making any changes. I'm glad that you could understand why I'd be changing things, I also understand how it could pile up when supporting other creators (thanks for that!). I'm glad I could be one of your favorites and I'd hope to see ya around more, I'll be looking out for your comments and stuff! I'm currently away from home for these two weeks but I'll be filming new videos starting on Oct 20th around 8pm and posting on the 21st! I appreciate your support and telling me your opinion here on this post! :D
