Do you guys remember that disgustingly dickish tweet Dobbo has made to Zelda Williams? You know, the one where he told a daughter dealing with the dead of his father to calm her tits? Using a crappy caption from the current Thor comics? I know, it's pathetic to get work up over lolcows, but I'd lie if I'd say it didn't rustle my jimmies. In fact, although I was going to draw a caricature of ol' Slobson inspired by another tweet, his douchebaggery towards Williams provoked me (or, dare I say, triggered me, oho!) to do another drawing, which I'd like to present to you Dearest Kiwis:

Needless to say, I've uploaded this doodle on Deviantart as well. I hope Sibling senpai notices me...

I'm about to tweet that to Cockson and see what happens! Wish me luck! ;)

At least now everyone gets the same content, $1 or $10.

Who the fuck would donate ten dollars, then? And what 'content' do you speak of? Last I checked you were doing fuck-all for any of your loyal patrons.*
Also, people are pulling funds because you suck. Try not sucking and see where that gets you, maybe.

*Oh, wait, my bad. He takes comics he's already fill-bucketed and tweaks them slightly. Everyone give him your hard earned cash.
 
*sigh* nothing happened other than him blocking me. Still, I'm waiting to see if he tweets anything about this later just to see what he says about it.

My guess is it will go something like this

Acocksoncomics tweeted "wow really. someone made art of thor shocking my nipples all because of something I said to Zelda Williams as a joke? Real mature asshole!"
 
  1. Get trolled into making more content, taking away valuable Twitter and squid loli time
  2. Backers pull out at the last minute so you're slightly below your $100
  3. Your loyal backers who stick with you get more content and if it's good will chip in some more money to make sure they get it again next month.
…We're not talking 5 grand here Dobson it's $10-$20, every business hard to take a few hits starting out, if you provide a good service and more compelling incentives than servers to an irrelervent game then "da twolls" wont be able to make much of an impact on your time investment at all.

His spergery over MGS is just the ultimate proof that he don't play games that often, or at bare minimum researches that which he wants to sob about while masturbating furiously to the women in it.

No way has he played it (Except maybe Twin Snakes) and to be honest I doubt he even strokes himself over it… all the women in it seem a bit too much for him to handle. They're already inflated with muscles, no room for air.
 
Hard work? Really, Dobbo? You made a really shitty animation of your faggot bear character and wanted $2k for a new computer, cheap asshole. He shouldn't be shocked it's failing. Go back to eating your Cheetos all day.

The fact that he can't even reach 100$ is kind of hilarious.
His payment tiers are also hilarious. He needs 600$ a month to make a podcast with his friends.

$100 on a podcast recording setup, $500 to pay people to pretend to be Dobson's friends.
Sounds like a fair split to me
 
I don't understand some of the rewards on his Patreon.
For $200 a month, he'll complete his Skyrim children's rhyme book thing. Is he holding this hostage? If he just worked on this from time to time, he could complete it and then make it available for distribution, possibly for profit.

That of course, would mean work with no immediate reward, the bane of Dobson's existence.
 
Gotta admit it. Dobson’s personal hell of his own creation is pretty amazing in its sheer simplicity and continuance. He could easily revamp his patron and push himself harder to achieve his goals, or alternatively, just let go, pursue other career, and turn art to a hobby instead of a demanding, consuming and unfulfilling struggle that it is at the moment. Instead he chooses to do neither, staying in the no-mans-land where he keeps hating his trade more and more without progressing in it. Leading to mounting frustration and angry twitter tirades that drive away potential patrons which feeds yet another social media rant.

Heck, at this point he might just openly embrace his teen balloon lesbian fantasies, as even creepy fetish porn would most likely sell as well as the current faux-progressive tumblr tier trash he desperately spews out in hopes of validation.

I am pretty sure that Dobson is one of the only people "trolled" like this. I'm also pretty sure that the $20 or so he's lost in the past month have come from actual fans cancelling their pledges, not trolls removing fake pledges.

Here's the thing though: Dobson has approximately 57,000 fans on DeviantArt. If he had 1% of them pledging then the actions of 2 or 3 individuals trying to "troll him" would be negligible. Dobson's problem isn't trolls, it's that he isn't making any art that people actually want to see. He has drawn nothing but shitty fan art since he started his Patreon. There's tons of shitty fan art available for free on DeviantArt (and lots of fan art that's leagues better than Dobson's), so why is he surprised that people aren't willing to pay him for his? Anyone with an ounce of self-awareness in Dobson's position would have at least made some attempt to change what they're doing, but in characteristic Dobson fashion he refuses to admit that he is the problem and as always shifts blame to the trolls for his lack of success.

Well geez Dobby, you might get some actual backers if you put out non-recycled content and stopped being a really creepy dick. I'm pretty sure even Chris has more tact towards his "fanbase" than Dobby does now.

Wait a second, didn't Dobson throw the MLP fans under the bus? The art is pretty inconsistent and the rider's right arm looks dislocated.

Half of this could be fixed easily.
How?
Either all the outlines be black (well, better off a dark bluish grey but whatever) or no outlines be black. It literally looks like a photoshop they fit so poorly together!
 
Dobbo: I could've done what you did in MSPaint; it'd have only taken five minutes to do that too, with the most effort being to realign and fit the images. So of course I'd get pissed if someone I checked out for art did something that lazy.

Rehashing is typically seen in a negative light anyway, since all it is is being lazy and reusing the same elements to half-assedly produce a new product.
