about evs and reliability on the site

since there is some discussions about payments and things related with evs, i have some things i want to ask and say

first thing: how many of you (costumers/clients) are here now that buy evs on a regular basis, and how many of you earn money in dolar? (for me i can only buy in a basis of 2 to 2 months, in my country the dolar is very expensive like 1 of my country money is equal to 5 dolars)

second thing: for the artists! it's not much wise to depend entirely of only one place to earn money when you work on your own, it's wise to make lot's of pillars cuz if one crumbles down you will not fall with it, this site is convenient? yes! but it's not perfect, so you all have to make sure to have lots of opened doors for work, like youtube, patreon, twitter, twitch, forums etc... finding ways to atract people to your works, of course you all already know that! but it's not easy to earn money with artistic careers you have to work to stay on the stares of the sucess and that is quite tiresome but that's the way it is.

third thing: is the site trustworthy enough for me and others to keep buying evs, i'm here cuz it's secure and the evs system is kind of practical for costumers, but it will be useless if there would to be a lack of artists, have the site gone trhough such dificulties before? if yes good it means it managed to survive, but if not then what to expect from now on?

    1- I think you explained wrong, if 1 unit of your country money worth 5 dollars, then dollar would not be expensive in your country, literally cheaper than your money xD In my country 1 dollar is equivalent to 20 units of my country money

    2- I have used Whentai as my main payment method 95% of the time in the last 5 years, so its quite a shame this is happening but with all honestly I was expecting something to happen sooner or later, it was to good to stay

    3- From what I can remember there have never being any problem with payments before, I have 2 conclusions of what is happening (pure speculation)

    (1) The problem may be related to Ukraine war, so is pretty screwed if its the case, no way to tell if it ever will get fixed
    (2) Technically a best scenario but still sucks, the Paypal account was suspended and could take up to 3 months to be solved

    But hey, its just a theory.... A Whentai Theory!!!

    Hello from the Literature Club!

    I'm not sure how long WH has been around - 8 years, 10 years...? My account is only about one year and a half old but I can see art back from 2015 in the archives, so it is kind of hard to tell without Josuke or Nastia coming up about it so people can start buying EVs again and artists get relieved. Foureiz, Mtrellex and others probably PM'd them about the matter already to try and get an answer.

    I initially thought it could be an issue with PayPal's terms of services as they have never really been too keen on adult stuff even within their new branch. But that of course is also just a theory, and seeing that WH managed to use it as a payment processor for this long as a middleman, PayPal seemed to be okay with this, at least.

    To add to what Pedroillusions said - sorry, I am not an artist myself!
    1. EVs are more advantageous to buy in bulk so I take it people almost always go for the 60 or 100 US dollar packs. The bigger packs are about 4 EVs per USD as opposed to 2. Commissions also are likely to be 100+ EVs and VIP status is... 1000? 2000? I don't really think it is a local currency conversion issue even with the ongoing crisis, unless someone lives in a country where the USD exchange rate is abysmal.
    2. Many artists have set up contracts with different platforms by now, though they also have highlighted WH is their go-to for artist-commissioner coordination. WH even seems to use a Patreon itself in addition to it own model. That still will never be the same as a full-time commission-dedicated platform but sites at 0% fees on artists tend to be rare, if they even exist at all, or there is almost always a catch. Or artists and commissioners could just decide to do business the old way (before WH was a thing, or before they used it) and maybe even use a different payment processor if they have issues with PayPal themselves.
    3. The war definitely put the world into a financial crisis but as long-time commissioners like IceStorm and others pointed out, there have been issues even before that. Are there any content partners that still actively work with WH (if that is okay for me to ask), like Hentai Heroes or Fap Titans? Their commissions seem to be quite old. If WH runs out of money, then it might not be able to pay artists. Again, something you'd want to directly ask Josuke (or Nastia).

    I'd say it still is trustworthy but you should refrain on taking new commissions from here until this is solved so you don't have to worry about this situation. I even noticed ad spam bots on the site (and reported them) but let's be honest here, they are everywhere those days.

    Thanks to all artists, idea and commission makers and WH staff for making it a good place to find quality artwork for all those years, otherwise we users might not even know about them and those pictures would not exist. I definitely hope you guys find a way to get paid in a timely manner for your work. As was already said, one cannot just expect everyone to work for free without having bills or rent to pay as well, and for WH, infrastructure and employee costs, partnerships, etc.

    PS: Maybe TOFUK and other moderators too? I am not sure if moderators are allowed to intervene on this, nor even know details about it. I don't even know if WH has a forum and do not use Discord so blogs appear to be the main form of communication besides the site's collaborative PM interface for those of us who cannot use social media.

    PPS: Y-yes, I know, manga is literature, I have come to terms with Natsuki about it. I have even started reading and enjoying both shoujo and erotic yuri manga, and this was not just Monika's influence ^^ (to end this comment in a less tense mood)

    Love,
