IMPORTANT: Do not remove the Patreon Bot from Discord. There will be no way to add the bot back after it has been removed. Additionally, if the bot is removed, you will not be able to disconnect Discord from Patreon as the bot manages this connection. Also important to note: The Patreon bot is delayed on the 1st of the month so new patrons may not be added to Discord instantly. However, they will be added shortly and no action is needed. If you have patrons with declined payments who have lost access, once their payment processes they will regain access. |
