It’s set up so that everyone will get to see it soon... Patreon get the early scoop.

It isn’t click bait. That would suggest the link leads to meaningless information. Its HigherGround, all the information on Patreon has been Mechanus related and this is no different. If you want it early, subscribe. If you don’t, wait. Either way there is news to share and they’ve done so.

Then keep it on patreon for Patrons. Post it on the forums when it's ready for public viewing. This was a sloppy way to say "Hey, something is happening. Pay us to find out." I have no idea if it's worthwhile or not, and I'm not going to pay to find out.

Something is wrong with your setup, there are no Patreon tiers I am aware of and no such thing shows up in my browser when opening it in anonymous window. You can pledge whatever amount you want, not sure how little Patreon even allows, but I am for example able to provide 5$ per month currently. Can be even lesser than that though.

You can do as low as $1.00 for sure, possibly even lower. The point isn’t to “tax” the community. There’s no tiered levels of access. And the amount of days between the early access and total access is so small that announcing something for the community to potentially contribute as little as $1.00 for information. I don’t know. I think you’re projecting the experiences of other places onto the Higher Ground patreon experience and they’re vastly different.

I literally posted a screenshot of FunkySwerve's link and you're accusing me of projection?

Behind the donation is a video showing buiding/statting a formian, one of the creatures in mechanus. It's a cool little behind-the-scenes view at monster creation and statting. Nothing urgent or important that you are missing out on. If you don't want to support the site then don't. Nobody is forcing you to do it. Some will and some will not.

Your argument is with the patreon model, not us. And you're seeing that $75 ask on a site we don't use. When you view it on patreon, the site I actually linked, it just says to become a patron to view. And no, this was in no way 'sloppy'. It was calculated to alert our Patrons of the post while also advertising our patreon. Not really much of a mystery. Funky Attachments:

I have no idea if it's worthwhile or not, and I'm not going to pay to find out. I can certainly understand being put off by a $75 tier, but, as others have noted, that must be an error as we're not seeing that on Funky's link and if you click "join now" it literally says "Choose What You Pay". And prepared is correct: the minimum amount is $1
