What is the most "private" way to contribute?

[Crinkles]

With the beginning of CoC 2, I figured I would finally bite the bullet and start chipping in. I mean, what the hell it's only a few bucks.

But now that I am looking to, I am really irritated by how much private information I need to give up to do so. Not wanting to pay into patreon directly with my card means using paypal.

And jesus fucking christ, does paypal demand a lot of info. Email, name, date of birth, address, phone number. They only barely stop short of demanding my fingerprints, dna and fucking reticle scan.

This entirely defeats the purpose of what I was after; a degree of seperation between my actual identity and the weird ass porn games I like.

So, how do the backers of CoC and TiTS pay? What is the best way to do so while remaining as private as possible?

While I dont care if anyone knows that I support DIRTY NASTY HORSE COCK PORN ( HUE HUE ) the way I pay for Patreon in general could help you.

What I do, is go to the store and buy a Visa Gift Card for a sum of money. The amount can vary, I usually go between 50-250$. When you use the card, you can put whatever bullshit info you want. I aptly call these cards, my Patron Cards.

Its what I do, and its worked wonders. As loooong as I dont submit to the temptation to use it for other websites..... like Steam.

One downside though, is you have to keep track of how much cash is on the card manually. There are a lot of ways to do this depending on which brand of Gift Visa you get, and I recommend one which lets you do it through a website. Cause doing it through the phone almost made me want to kill myself.

I hope this helps at least slightly.

So you buy the gift cards, use them on Patreon then simply replace them before they run out?

That sounds like a fine way to anonomyse my support of DIRTY NASTY HORSE COCK PORN. I can simply get a $50 dollar one and that will cover me for 10 months.

Works like a charm.

If you didn't need to throw down your name etc for online purchases the world would be a very scary place, friend.

Imagine all the anonymously purchased horse-shaped dildos in wrong hands.

Mother of God.

That said, paypal (and so forth) is just a third party middleman. They are no more involved with this then your bank happens to be, which is to say it's a drop in the ocean and you're just a number on a list.

Don't worry about it to much.

Yeah, unless you're someone that already has a fair bit of importance, like a political figure or a CEO, then the chances of someone taking interest in what your paypal account or credit card purchases are feeding into is smaller than Planck's Constant.

Well, thanks for the advice Alabaster. All done!

You don't know my family, man......
