In one thread here, many users here had expressed what they had said about sexual relations in the comic.
A lot of us admitted that first we came here for that but we stayed around for the great story involving the main characters.

Suddenly, an idea ran passed my head.
Ms. Vanessa had said that many other people outside the forums and many multiple pirate sites did not care for the story and rather see sexual realtions between the main characters.
What if the story and the sex were separated into different comics?
This might mean as more work for Ms. Vanessa but i wanted to know what others thought of my idea.
The main comic would still have a few scenes here ans there but they would be lessened while all the main sexual relations are made on a different comic.

Dividing the sex and the story may not be a good idea. Having a strictly sex comic could promote such piracy. Believe it or not, but while people are swiping and reposting the comic for free, that is publicity and while it may not encourage a lot of people to subscribe to the site, it can draw some to subscribe if they believe such great work is deserving of it. I myself came across BonBon on another site where it was posted for free; I believed that it was worth paying for and so I subscribed. Though it is not really the best thing, having people pirate the the comic can potentially have a better chance at drawing... some people to subscribe than the little adds that are on some sites because people can read the comic and see what is in it.

Yes, I know it is not the best logic, but there is a logic there. My point is, if the comic is reduced to just sex, then that pirated comic will lose much of the appeal that is drawing people to subscribe, the story. Those that are pirating it are doing it more for the sex than the story. Separating them could potentially have an adverse effect on the minor income that comes from that piracy. I honestly don't know where most of the subscribers come from; seeing the pirated comic posted for free, seeing the adds or hearing about it and searching for it themselves but I dare say that where ever they come from, if it gets out that there is a strictly sex BonBon comic, the story comic will lose out because people will be more inclined to just get the sex comic for free and will not have the chance to get drawn into the story and find it worthy of their money.

There's a bit of rambling there, but I hope my point was made. I'm not saying the piracy is good, just that it will likely increase if the story and sex split because it provides publicity to the site and the comic itself.

Yes i took notice that should something like that happen, people wouldn't suscribe as much.
In truth, i wanted to know what others thought of my idea, even if it isn't rather usefull
