Hello everyone; if you're not part of the Request Tier or aren't looking to subscribe to it, then this may not be as important to you - but feel free to read on.
First, I want to take a moment to genuinely thank each and every one of you for your support. I haven't had a proper chance to say it until now, so: thank you, truly (ෆ˙ᵕ˙ෆ)♡
Now, to get into it - I won't sugarcoat things: the Request Tier has grown far beyond what I ever anticipated @.@
Right now, all spots are filled, several people have made multiple requests, there's people waiting for a spot to open up, and requests are already scheduled nearly to the end of May - and we're only a third of the way through the month. Compared to last month, which was already very busy, there's now a consistent 1–2 week wait on every request.
This also means that I'm not able to spend much time on customizing or adding new scenes to requested sets (perhaps you realized this already), which no one wants and I feel bad about. We haven't had a non-requested set since Tsunade, which was nearly 1.5 months ago (this account is only 3 months old!)
---------------------------------
Because of all this, I've decided to update the Request Tier price to $149/mo, effective from today onwards. The new Request Tier has been launched by the time you're reading this.
I tried to time this announcement to avoid catching anyone right at their renewal date, though I know some of you will be affected regardless, for which I apologize. Every request submitted before this change will be completed in full, so please don't worry.
I understand if this change is frustrating, but it'll help keep the workload manageable, mean more original sets, and hopefully better requests overall :)
Importantly, I also want to explore more content for this account. Specifically, more sets with dialogue / doujinshi-style content - which I haven't had the time to work on since requests have been taking up my time since now.
I hope even if you're no longer willing to stay in the Request tier, you'll still stay & keep supporting me - and most of all thank you for your support up to this point! ヾ(@⌒ー⌒@)ノ
