Is that the pathetic or is it pathetic that his fans are giving him that much when he does dick all?
There is a person donating $17 through three accounts.
The misinterpretation is because that post was supposed to include the information I am going to include now. I already have posted about how Q's Patreon is a disaster, but I am going to hit the point home further with stuff that was only available earlier this month.
- You give Quinton $1, you receive a Discord invite to the Patreon exclusive invite if he feels like it. You might as well donate at least $2 and be very careful to not make him suspect you are a troll because he has already kicked several innocent patrons over that. The server rarely ever got to at least a third of Q's total patrons.
- You give Quinton $5, you receive video credits in the form of a Premiere text layer with no distinction between tiers with the exception of the guy that gives him $100.
- You give Quinton $10, you receive the right to ask him ONE question per month but you need to make sure to not ask him anything that might make him feel uncomfortable. We will return to this later.
- You give Quinton $25, after three months you receive a personalised Quinton Reviews mug. No, I am not joking.
- You give Quinton $30, you receive the unsold plushies from the Makeship campaign, not including shipping outside the USA. This tier used to be for a personal postcard he technically has yet to fully cover and he messed the orders for the plushie anyway.
- You give Quinton $55, you receive a personalised voice recording within the boundaries of what he is willing to record at the price of a low-end, professional VA and a personalised mug after three months.
And now, the piece de resistance. Get tardy because here comes what I meant by this Patreon being pathetic.
Quinton's Q&A tier is pitiful, as he has made 10 posts calling for questions in what is supposed to be a monthly segment. Bear in mind Contrapoints and PhilosophyTube do more to earn their Patreon bucks by doing public livestreams.

* It wasn't a $10 and up exclusive post.
Quinton has only ever done Patreon exclusive Q&As three times. They are just as you might have expected.
Feb 12, 2020
2:05: Quinton talks about his new apartment. He confirms living near his old home.
4:07: Quinton acknowledges not rewarding his $30 patrons with the promised postcards and that he is two months behind with the Q&A.
5:08: Quinton talks about his vacation. Doesn’t recommend going to Anaheim.
5:24: Quinton explains how his $10 tier works, which becomes hilarious in hindsight.
7:01: Quinton explains his process to create videos. Only proceeding with ideas after aspects pertinent to click-ability convince him he can make views of them. He starts thinking on the title and then designs a thumbnail before he starts writing.
8:28: Quinton talks about doing large projects akin to Full Force. He mentions his lore movie and speaks highly of Every Ghost Show, saying “if we cut five minutes of it and made it look more professional it could have aired in Adult Swim” which leads him to talk about the then canned BigFoot plans which he expected to make him “10 million views, billions and start a fake tourism show”
- His big plans were: 1) BigFoot isn’t real, 2) Change the power dynamics of the first video so he becomes a subordinate.
12:57: Quinton proceeds to give the whereabouts of his friends. Wyatt lives half an hour from Quinton, Caleb lives two hours away and Q wanted all of them to move to California to shoot.
13:56: Quinton talks about his biggest inspiration being his father, which he also calls his best friend. Quinton’s pipe dream when he started YouTube was to make it to Hollywood and reboot his father’s old VHS short films. Even though he knows it is very unlikely he can make it there or even find an audience he admits he would be willing to leave YouTube if given the chance.
16:30: Quinton uses his $6 server (Quanto Analysis) as the main source of feedback for his scripts. He considers them his friends for giving him $6 a month.
20:19: Thoughts on J.K. Rowling. Predictable TERF bashing and calls her a dumbass for being transphobic.
24:35: Quinton talks about his less publicised love for Peanuts; how he bought all the books and bought some twice because he lost them while moving and planned to make a video similar to How Garfield Lost Its Magic about it. The only mentioned cast members were Jenny Nicholson as Lucy (or Peppermint Patty) and theOdd1Out as Lynus. He decided against doing it because “Peanuts clickbait doesn’t do as well as Garfield clickbait”.
33:37: Quinton thinks he could beat the shit out of Prince if he didn’t have bodyguards under the excuse he was 4ft (I guess I could fight in his name then) and he would love to beat the shit out of Andrew Jackson by curb stopping him. He even says you can quote him on that.
Quinton recognises he is shit at fulfilling his obligations to his patrons.
May 25, 2020
0:25: Quinton half-jokingly recognises he has not been delivering with Patreon exclusive content while giving excuses. He does it several times (8:16, 10:16, 19:08, 25:55)
1:46: He mentions how his channel has been doing well and he is surprised about it. He is flabbergasted about how well the History Channel videos did. He also talks about how little he had watched nazi documentaries before he started making edits.
5:42: Plans for tourism videos that got canceled because of COVID included a Creationist road trip and going to Garfield Eats to eat everything on the menu, which he estimated being able to make in February of 2021.
10:36: Quinton gets moody after someone asks him how he feels about being the algorithm’s bitch. Even though he is very subtle you can tell this question struck a nerve with him, considering his well-known stances about how YouTube treats the videos he is passionate about.
12:10: Quinton has not watched Psycho, which means he is only familiar with the scene he parodied for The Worst YouTube Video Ever / The Sexdoll Video.
12:54: Quinton mentions being working on a Watchmen video and not being sure how to tackle its continuity. For what it's worth he says he could watch the show and skip the movie, but he either didn’t watch the show or lied because the video ended up being only about Doomsday Clock.
13:44: He is familiar with Ito Junji’s work because of the comparisons with Gorefield.
15:09: Quinton weasels out of giving his opinions on Twin Peaks beyond “whoever claims it’s SOLVED is full of bullshit.”
17:25: Top simp Raccoon Reason gets Quinton to confess he mainly watches History Channel and HLN (informative murder porn with CNN news). He watches Sex & Murder because it comes before Forensic Files.
19:41: Quinton favorite beverages are coffee, six cups a day, and Blue Moon, with him starting to drink alcohol regularly as the quarantine came by and claiming to have a lot of bottles laying in his apartment. He likes strawberry-flavored beer, ergo girly drinks.
20:40: Quinton gets into a minute-long soliloquy about identity after being asked which is his favorite color.
21:58: A low-calorie burrito recipe. He often eats the fillings straight from the bowl when “he has been good”.
23:20: He talks about then upcoming videos. Nazi documentaries, VoidCon. Mentions wanting to record stuff for his BigFoot video in Super 8 and refers to Karl Pilkington as a “cryptid”.
26:05: He says his full name yet gets mad when people call him by that. Stick to the end to see the furry belly.
Oct 23, 2020
0:10: He calls himself Kyle. He again monologues about sucking at delivering Patreon rewards.
1:35: Pre-Election stress leads to playing Christmas music in October.
2:50: Garfield falls on Q’s groin.
6:58: There is a very good chance that the McDonald’s video can become a sabbatical from YouTube based on his answer to places he wants to visit besides Garfield Eats. He also wants to visit his online friends.
9:07: He is pretty salty that My Garfield Vacation and the Garfield Plush arc didn’t get many views.
10:55: He also extends the saltiness to the implication that people care about his character lore.
11:54: Quinton talks about how he decides which topics he makes into videos and his weirdest video idea being about Ben Shapiro not understanding rap, which he ended up not going through because even by his standards it was pretty bad.
15:23: The sand from #Sandgate was used by Q’s parents.
16:03: Quinton’s recounting of Breona Taylor’s killing is very unceremonious for being "the one story that has fucked with him the most".
17:03: A straightforward question about his favourite kind of video becomes a salty monologue about how he cannot risk doing all sorts of videos and another reason to name weird McDonald’s.
18:12: Quinton gets extra sad while talking about YouTubers but makes sure to stroke Erik’s ego.
20:02: Quinton loves fanart… except when it comes from trolls, which is the reason he doesn’t host it anymore.
21:46: He loves Thundercats, SpongeBob, and loved Kappa Mikey, until he convinced himself it was racist.
22:39: “How many times do you think you have said the word “Garfield” in the last year alone?” Somehow he gets into another doomer tangent.
24:08: Only including this timestamp because he calls Peppermint Patty “so cute, and the way he crushes on Charlie Brown is just adorable” which combined with the revelations that Jenny was going to be playing her as a guest made me irk a little.
24:49: Chapo’s book inspired his Star Wars video. Subtle political references, my bum.
He just rushes the last four minutes, which involved at least eight questions ranging from “has Jim Davies reached out to you?” to “are you single?” My theory is that the cause of the rush was a message he received.
America woke up knowing Quinton has somehow 845 patrons now after the McDonald's video has gone up and is a built-in call to action. So yeah, failing upwards is a stable of the Quinton Reviews experience.
