And if you're saying, like, you really hate that stuff, I don't consider you a fan of my work. I certainly don't consider you, like, you're not going to ever be a paying customer of mine. I don't really want to talk to you. I certainly don't need you coming in and starting arguments in my mentions. Yeah. You're going to get the boot. It's just how it is. I'm sorry.

I mean, I could talk to people who don't like D&D for other principled reasons. I respect that, but I'm probably not also going to follow them because I respect people who are going to be nice to my customers, essentially. Your actual fans?

I'm a big fan of role-playing games. I buy role-playing games. I play them. I talk about them. I will promote them, like, constantly. But, you know, you've got to draw a line. Anyway, one of the things I found quite amusing was that Patreon did ask the customers or the creators that they act as a middleman for, do you think the work you see on Patreon is valuable? And only 93% said yes.

So 7% of their customers, like nearly one in 10, are giving money to Patreon and do not feel they're getting value for money. So I'm like... Okay.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I thought that was funny. And they reckon that the average pay per fan is $110 per annum. And when I say fan, that would be someone who's following you and giving you money. But like I say, I'm confused by why they think this is great stuff, because like I say, the majority of creators had between 10,000 and 2 million people
