But printing the comic is actually less wise on cutting the cost.

You have to deal with shipping charges

and you have to deal with Misc costs. Like ink.

Not to mention it doesn't stop people from scanning it, and posting it on a website.

True, not to mention people scanning the pages and redistributing it for their own profit.

I think the best way to make it is when they create the game, they make a section solely for the comic, as an in game update so to speak. Where you get the pages in the game.

Unfortunately, no matter what path is taken, there is always going to be the risk of piracy. In such a business like Vanessa is in, it's not a matter of whether or not your product can be pirated or not, but how much it will get pirated. Vanessa has a great comic, hands down. The subscription fee isn't unreasonable. Unfortunately, we currently reside in a time where 8-9 out of 10 people just don't appreciate the hardwork artists put into their creations and just want "MOAR! MOAR! MOAR!" and expect it to just be handed to them for free. It shames me to think that I am part of a generation who has next to no concept of proper appreciation for those who deserve and have earned it. Whether the matter in question is adult oriented artwork, music, movies or otherwise, people just don't give a fuck and prefer to sit at home saying "Thanks for the show, give me more."

While I understand a lot of people cannot afford to subscribe to the site for extended periods due to the absolutely shite economy of this entire planet, I also see no reason why many of those same people cannot subscribe just once or twice a year. The prices are not unaffordable. Set aside a couple of dollars here, a couple there; it builds up fast enough. The comic updates at a pace where it isn't even neccessary to have a permanent subscription. Joining for just a month, two or three times a year, will not cause you to miss out on anything. If everyone who wanted to read the comic did this, Vanessa wouldn't need to search for ways to prevent piracy altogether. A thousand people paying a dollar each is better than one person paying a thousand dollars. This is something that most people these days don't realise because they are too busy thinking with the fucking dick than their brain. It really is mind numbing to think how stupid people are.

But no. The "internet based community" don't give two flying flips about the people who put loads and loads of effort into creating and presenting them with such fine pieces of artwork. They just want to sit around, bitch slap each other verbally, and take whatever the fuck they want for free.

It's so sad that such beautiful artwork can be created today and those who create it get thanked for absolutely nothing.

When my brother Aaron_Thom told me that PBB may publish its own MMORPG, I said "Now THAT product has my attention." I mean, I spend my time on the PBB role playing forum because that's what I really like to do. I have an emotional investment with the players and Royal Members here. I have to admit, when A_T let me have a peek at all the artwork and features he has access to I got turned on by it all. It's an incredible collaboration, but oh if only it were like an MMORPG. I'd pay for that.

Wishes do come true, then. The Pleasure Bon Bon mmorpg will be the first online game I sign up for with a paid subscription. This has my total interest, and I am going to help make it happen.

A curse on the pirates.

Maybe a mission where you board a pirate ship and sabotage they're booty

Yeah just look at all the threads on Paws and u18 and just see how ungrateful and demanding they get.

Like Caroline, I've been with you since the Vixine days, and I'll stick with this ship til its run its coarse. I know I don't stop by often enough (the forums at least) but I try to alert a share site when I see it.

I'll check with you, Ronald or vanessa, over quality, but I'll try to submit more fanart and/or commissions in the future to help and advertise Bonbon.

And I know folks feel its dead and gone, but I've got the PBB card game info I've salvaged. I still very much plan to make that a reality! I've gotten materials for making the beta set, and will start or redo the thread for it. I shall help breathe new life into this site, God willing!

Question on what we can do, as members, to help with the Online Game. Scripts for characters or stories for side characters? Even helping proofread or edit. I wish to do more for this site!

Til next time, take care you three (that means you too Marco) and God bless.

I guess you don't quite understand the idea of "Patch together" Roland. Smile

It's their problem to sell it and post it, after the design is made into real life toy. But like i said, the design needs enough rates on PT page to go further into production. That's why comics often asked members if they would be interested in buying such a toy, making polls about which character should be proposed, and then asked to vote on PT page to get the highest rating on pre-order. So the only cost from the side of the creator is the nerves about it beeing successfull or not Smile

OMG OMG OMG Very Happy

Can't wait to start reading Dillinger

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 29 May 2009 Posts: 6010

Simeone Derringer looks an awful lot like Simon Blue from the PBB series. I'm sure thats no coincidence though.

You get this quest from Betty, you need to forward a letter from her to Mary without getting caught. When business is taken care of you return to Betty. She tells you that Mary may reply soon, and to return there as soon as you can. You grab Mary's Reply to Betty and return it. When Betty reads it she finds out that Simon Blue has discovered their spot for letters and discovers you. She tells you that she needs you to get into that mansion somehow and find a new place for them to forward letters. So you have to disquise yourself as the cook Jeff Actarus, the head chef of the Delight Castle (by stealing his clothes from his room) and convince Simon that you must enter to do cooking business or something of that nature. When you have gained access to the manison, you have to continue with trying to find a certain spot where they can exchange letters, preferably in the garden or around the outside wall. I think if you should ask Mary, she can give you some hints, but after the second or third time of asking her, Simon will catch you and send Mary upstairs where you can no longer speak with her. After you finally find the spot, you tell Simon you have done what is needed and leave. You return to Betty, tell her where the new spot is, and you earn some respect from her, but she knows to not trust you on anymore "delieveries" unless you prove yourself to her... (this could be an opening to another quest given by her)

Strange how certain laws are in some countries but not in others.
