Guess there's no point in me to keep drawing more pages. They just keep getting leaked anyway. Which really kills motivation.

I still feel bad 'cause there's still a lot of people here who want to support the project and if I stop, I'll be letting them all down.

And I get it. You can't stop people from leaking stuff. Still sucks though.

Maybe I'll do one final page to show off how things might've turned out.

Or I'll leave it up to you folks. Maybe I'll do a poll and see how much interest there is.

What a bunch of assholes!

Zanon Silvus

Only takes the actions of one to ruin it for everyone To the one who leaked it... f**k you

That’s terrible! There’s always at least someone like that.

Christoph Brauer

I've seen your comics and pictures on sites like e621 - everytime you've uploaded the newest one here it's been the earlier one there (comic page 10 when you uploaded page 11 here)

It's bad for you, it's bad for us, it's bad for everybody, it's not fair... Don't give up, i know my words shouldn't matter to you but don't give up. Take a break if you want, you deserve it

Leakers are assholes because you really deserve to be paid for how good your work is.

I'm so sad... One asshole ruined it for everyone. But I understand and appreciate your hard work.

Risu

Dang, and I was actually willing to pay you for it. That's a shame.

Masofuts

That sucks man. I’d appreciate a poll, or maybe you can give the WIP’s to Patreon a and the compete product to everyone else. Or just the rest of the dialogue

I find it pretty cringy tbh, I'd say just dmca where the leaks are being posted. Being an artist is already costly enough and losing potential cash to leakers is shitty. I hope things go well for you though.

Why the hell do people even leak stuff? I mean it’ll get posted publicly anyway. What’s the actual point?

Suia Loctis

I wish we knew who the spoilsport was, because I don't want you to stop!

To be fair the leaked page is how I found you.

No, no, no dont stop maybe take a break from the comic or MODCA and the people that supports you on here can go to the sites that has these leaked picture and report the crap out of them till they get taken down, so plz dont quit the comic i luv it and everyone luvs the sweaty balls of this comic

Anonymous

I was really looking forward for the rest of the comic 😢

Anonymous

Also yes do a poll plz cuz im still very interested in this so fucking much just need to report the crap out of the leaked pages as soon as they get up to get them downand the person that is doing so as well

SPJEN1093

OMG seriously? Do these assholes not understand your trying to make a living?!

MODCA

I don't mind reuploads there since they make a point to provide sources and always upload pages that are already public. So no issues with e621 at least.

Pal

Maybe there's a way to control your work getting out. Like distributing from a third party hosting site and watermarking pieces so you can narrow down who's leaking.

I’ve only ever seen one around this: QR code watermarks. The site that used them obviously had some sort of automated system for applying them, so it might not be viable for you. You’d have message uniquely marked versions to each of your patrons and have a record linking them. But sometimes preventing cheats isn’t about making something 100% secure but about making it more of pain in the ass than its worth. So even a less intense version of the above method may be enough. Like old CD drm was never expected to be foolproof, but rather it would stall pirates long enough for majority glut of release sales to peter out, minimizing losses.

Getting leaked what the fuck. People pay for this and that is fucked that people use it for there own personal gain like that.

Landa

Don't give up, we believe in you!

theres not even personal gain from leaking pages, but from what i've seen at least, they tend to be kinda bot-y? i dunno its hard to explain, but they just auto grab and upload pages, the best way to avoid it would be release EVERYTHING at the beginning of the month after the billing cycle, and you only get THAT month, but then you run into the issue of now you're not uploading comic pages every week, and there are long gaps in uploads on twitter since you post pages the following week there, its a mess....your art style and the content you make are amazing, i'd hate to see another amazing comic just stop mid way through, seen too many good artists do that. if a poll was created i have no doubts that it would be an overwhelming amount of support for it continuing. my only request is that you dont stop it, even if its means only releasing them for free and giving us something else (i've seen artists offer alternate angles and stuff but) i'd be willing to help brain storm idea's to keep people from stealing whether its PMing dropbox links to patreon's or even contacting sites you're seeing these pages stolen on and working to take them down (if you haven't already of course). i know if you put "for patreon's only" or "not for redistribution" as a little watermark at the bottom that tends to stop most of the respectful sites from approving them, but there are still those that dont care about that stuff. Again if you want to bounce some idea's off me hit me up, i'll let you know my thoughts. sorry for the great wall of text post oof

Hi Modca I,m a new joiner of your patreon. I really like your pokemon gay comics parts though. Please have faith and keep up the good work. owo

You could try to figure some semblance of a system to avoid it. Some creators tend to upload rewards to a mega folder and have the link present in the patreon post; But only give the decryption key in private messages.

Blockhead

a possible solution, many artists post their exclusives on a discord server, with a lot less leaks but that still might get leaked

Anonymous

Don’t understand why it’s so hard for people to not just do this shit just let the people who support the artist and the artist itself be able to do there thing without leaking shit I don’t understand people some times dude

Anonymous

I’m sorry this is happening to you :( sucks to see another artist lose motivation because if assholes who don’t respect artists wanting to make money because “hurr durr I want now”. If you can’t afford the patreon you still have the option to wait and if you can but still do it they’re the worst type of person. Keep up the good work modca, I hope you regain the motivation to work on the comic but even if you don’t fans like me will be eagerly awaiting more great content from you :)
