As I said, I WAS a patron, I'm not one anymore and I don't plan to be one for a while, the reason why I do this publicly is because this way there is more transparency and important data from the conversation is not lost; and you are right about the free-to-play people of the game who never contributed anything, many ask for versions of the game from the patreon or the cheat codes: I wouldn't have any right to complain about the price or any other important aspect of the game if I had never contributed.
PD: I could put images from when I was patreon (your publications) to prove I was a patreon but you would probably delete them.
