    @Ozofmassage Patreon lets you withdraw to a bank account, which I should have been doing but the writers wanted to be paid via Paypal and there would have been extra fees to pay them from my bank account through Paypal so I had money withdrawn from Patreon to Paypal.
    So I won't have problems in the future. I told the writers no more Paypal and that they need to use Dwolla or something similar. But I may have lost the $430 in my Paypal account at the time plus having to pay out the writers share. Dunno yet.

    As per what I said on IRC, not sure. It seems that Patreon might not allow Paypal for adult Patreons? Let me know what Patreon tells you.
  • :( Yeaah in-development games ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Zomboid#Funds_frozen_by_PayPal_and_Google_Checkout ), and also adult games (can't find a link, but I believe the Fall of Eden patreon had a post that read something like "Please change your information if you're paying through paypal, as all those transactions are being rejected") both suffer at the hands of paypal.
  • I did not have PayPal on the LEWD page or anything though. I was just receiving the money from Patreon.

    PayPal are simply thieves. I did not violate anything in their agreement.
