  Jasper ☆ comms open! (@gloomyjasper) reported 3 seconds ago

  Apparently taking payments for comms through PayPal from Ko-fi is NOT WORKING??? HELLO?? WTF. I'm new to Ko-fi in general but I don't think I'm gonna keep using it if I'm seeing other people having issues with it (along with myself) 😭😭

  @BobbyBorkIII It’s terrible but there are many which are worse. Every PA county has their own court run e-filing system. Nightmare. Some of them must be paid with PayPal.

  @Ares155862 @emiihunn_ I don't remember the details, but it was a week old account, shortly after I transferred the money to the bank, Paypal permanently closed my account, legit can't log in at all, so i created a new account, but i didn't use it for 90 days, and haven't had any problems for 5 years

  @TerraDraca @Grummz Because arseholes on the internet will report you and PayPal wont care enough to actually check manually. Thats what started this whole thing a while ago. PayPal received shedloads of complaints about morally grey content and decided to shut it down rather than deal with it

  @JunHakase I’ve sadly heard a lot of PayPal accounts for people in those countries are mysteriously being shut down or suspended recently.. and personally, I kind of don’t think it’s a coincidence. It seems to stop them from getting international clients.

  @Zsibo1 No, my buy me coffee got flagged for being suspicious last year. I only have PayPal lol I have to use a broken phone and cannot even get my lens replaced… all my resources are going to my units, I am fed up with having to buy prizes just so people donate.

  @falloutyuh Well tbh that’s mostly what I’ve been aware of It also might be the fact PayPal is cracking down on these types of stuff and shutting down accounts for it cause of payment processors not liking anything

  @Leo_El_Random But that mean comms are now only able to go through patreon or still by paypal too? Due to having CC problems and patreon (still despite having money in paypal wallet) every time going straight for the CC digits, I can't use patreon... but I CAN still use paypal

  Alright time to talk about the actual problem..the internet is “baby-proofing” everything, IDS OR PHOTOS JUST TO TALK IN ROBLOX, removing nsfw in countries, removing nsfw in PayPal fully, because parents don’t monitor their children, they go on the internet-

  @lady_devoe I don't believe a thing grummz says but it is true that PayPal tends to shut down accounts for little to no reason long before this tweet. I think it's a good idea to still check out other alternatives when you can

  this PayPal issue has been happening for years, you're just seeing another wave in the public light. I lost my account back in 2021 and it's been painful ever since. So here's some more options

  Honestly, I wouldn't bring this up if it didn't affect me, but since I'm an artist who uses PayPal all the time, I recommend that you don't mention the fee at all and just write “Art Commission” on the payment. That should be enough, and there shouldn't be a problem.
