IF YOU USE ADFLY, FUCK YOU
I am fucking furious and I have every goddamn right to be.
Yesterday, for the first time in a LONG while, I decided, fuck it, I really want this creators CC, I really like it even though it’s behind TWO OR THREE FUCKING ADFLY WALLS. Numerous fucking adfly walls later, I was sick of it and decided to turn off my adblocker (I don’t know if this was the cause of what happened) so I could just go through one adfly wall. Literally mere hours later, my card details were used to buy shit, fucking me, someone who barely earns $10 an hour ($7USD) out of almost $100 (And I’m going to lose more due to overdrawn fees). There is literally no other place I go on the internet that would raise any concern to me EXCEPT ADFLY. Yes, it is equal parts my own fault, for giving in and downloading that cc I really wanted, for disabling my adblocker to get through it easier. But come on, how much money do you creators actually get from ADFLY? Do you really feel that creating content for a game you love is only worthwhile if you get paid for it? You probably started out doing it for fun and as a hobby, where along the line did you feel it necessary to lock your CC up, only available to those who jump through dangerous hoops to give you a few cents for it? At least give us the option, give us one adfly-free link too! If you create great, original content, then I have no problems with Patreon. At least that site is safe and we get the CHOICE of supporting you! For now, my card has been cancelled,my computer is checking for malware, and my account is overdrawn. I don’t really know what I’m going to do about my phone bill or government debt repayments now. Please reblog this so creators who use adfly can see this. I want everyone of them to know that this happened. I’m not going to say which creator I was downloading out of respect for their privacy, and I don’t want the hate.Â
