Why in the world would Patron cost more and gives you nothing?

Please change my account from Patron to Premium.

Don't be like that you also get a cool board I don't have access to. And because you got it now you SAVED $20! This was great investment that will be worth $50 some time potentially!

Just keep the money - I'll just buy the premium.

Anyone else thinking of buying patron just beware you get nothing but a stupid icon.

I wouldn't know all the hidden goodies, I have not bought it.

Actually, it is my understanding that when you pay for patron on just about anything you pay to say you are a supporter and that you gave money to the org/cause, what you get back in terms of service/goods is generally worth a lot less than what you payed.

Sure - it's posted "somewhere"; but, it *should* be explained|shown on the page where I'm making the purchase.

What method did you use?

Was it not similar to the link in the pang quote below below? Because this one says:

"Earth Empires Patron

It does. I guess I can't blame anyone this time. I was thinking the badge was symbolic for some features. No idea it was for a silly icon.

To be fair, Patron wasn't about the reward, yet at least, it was more of giving a kickback to the game for all of the free entertainment.

Pang did have other plans for Patrons but not sure if/when it will come to fruition.

But yes you bought the wrong one if you wanted Alpha access :p
