2023 Q2 Meeting Minutes

  • Patreon tiers and community goals
    • $50 Poetry tier is sold out but will be deprecated as it adds too much stress
    • $40 tier will be a replacement, but tiers after that aren’t really ideal as folks tend not to go for those levels.
      • Uncertain what that $40 tier will look like yet, but when it becomes apparent we will change it.
    • Overall channel goals on patreon are not currently being hit, not a large concern
      • Long term goals need to be set but is currently being avoided as things feel too chaotic.
    • “To be determined”
  • Minecraft server schedule and resets
    • DS9 needs a full operating system upgrade
