Subscribestar might go to hell???

I’ve been given heads up that Substar is changing it’s ToS in a very unfavorable way to me and my content (as well as many others’).
I’ll be keeping an eye out because just yesterday it seemed that they’re banning all anthro stuff, today it’s saying something else again, who knows what might happen tomorrow.
My posts are passing the reviews so far but there’s a chance they might not in the near future, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
Just wanted to make this post to say thank you to all of my current subscribers and let’s hope I don’t get banned! 😂

Don’t forget you can also support/get my content over on Onlyfans, I’ll be updating it with more of my older comics too soon ^^

Oh WOW that TOS just excludes a whole bunch of stuff with more or less the exact same wordings as on Patreon!

I’m actually confused because according to this which looks to be the newest thing https://subscribestar.adult/prohibited_content anthro furry stuff should still be fine (excluding cub stuff which sucks). But I’ve seen some peope say that furry is banned altogether and now I dunno what to think.

Yup it seems it would exclude cub content, but also any kind of gore, rape, incest and other kinks too!

Yeah, it absolutely sucks ass and is restricting af :/ that said- I did post some cub stuff just this morning and it passed even the verification process 🤷‍♂️ I guess it’s only a matter of time before they start implementing the rules properly tho.

Yeah I worry about that too.. Only alternatives I can even think of is fanbox, which is under Japanese cencorship laws, or boosty or something like that which is Russian and a bit of a hurdle for people to subscribe through :/

It's weird, I've seen screenshots of a policy that's way more restrictive, time-stamped 10th of March. I can't find it anywhere on Substar though, and the time-stamp on the site you linked says 11th of March. It seems like they might have taken it back, for now at least. Substar is just a dumpster fire communication-wise...
In any way, cub is now definitely banned :/

I just noticed that
It’s very unfortunate, especially for artist needing it to funds projects like comics

Only silver lining that still makes them slightly better than patreon is they just demand deletions rather than just nuking accounts without a word and policing offsite.

Could just post links to catbox archives or something.

The TOS prohibits off-site links as well..

Huh. Thats ass
Could chain through a safe site I suppose. Or just tell subscribers to ask you for a link in DM.

Already seeing other creators moving on this, shadowpaw completely wiping their substar while rov's account is 'under review' ><

Credit card companies hate anything related to NSFW. They want us to go back to the 90's

The plot thickens. There are now an option of tokens, though if I am reading it right you can still use direct credit card payment.
The argument is that more payment providers can be used, including paypal, to pay for these tokens, which are then used to pay content creators

But it just seems odd to be implemented without any heads-up messages or anything, just suddenly "BOOM Tokens!!!"

And I am super confused, because those token things, aren't they like what people pay camgirls with on streaming sites or something?`

So confused o_0

The only thing that makes sense to me with this is that paypal is now involved with the weird tokens and paypal is anti anything even remotely nsfw, which is just so dumb.
But one subscriber gave me an idea how to circumvent everything today- just upload a preview of whatever it was you were going to post and then send the actual post (maybe a link to it) through DMs to your subscribers. It’s additional work but it might just do the trick?

I legit have no idea, currently just in waiting mode to see if it blows over or what happens next

But yeah link to mega file with a password on it might do the trick, i have been considering that myself, but I don't have the nearly the volume of posts that you have..

this might indeed work, at least on Patreon some artists did. One even just hints at their NSFW stuff on the memberships and asks subscribers to DM then if they want it. To imply they don't have any NSFW on their account
