As the title says, we’ve got a lot of reports about this, and we have Rule 7 - Should we take a hardline stance of no OF/SC/links etc? Vote in the comments.
Yes - We should ban these

No.
The best content creators here have OF accounts. They need to eat too. Close them off and this place will slow to a crawl.
This is a self-defeating move.
I’m 100% OK with OF creators posting but they should keep the links in their profile. The flood of posts with subscription links are annoying.
Right - Profile is something a user affirmatively seeks out. Posts are part of the feed, so post links are more readily defined as spam. But profile links should be fine, and frankly I think it is most compatible with a sex-positive attitude that isn’t morally opposed to these people making money on OF.

Confine that garbage to an onlyfansgirls channel and keep the real girls here.
Are people seriously getting mad at women for giving them free content and suggesting you can support them if you like it and want to see more?
This place will die without sex workers.
yes, yes they are 😆
While I agree that this place is too small to survive without them, for me knowing that every post and interaction on here it’s just an ad to make me pay takes out a lot of the fun
Nobody is asking you to pay or to click on the links. Down vote (if you care so much) or simply move on.
That’s not the point, it still is an ad. Just like the companies that make memes as ads on socials, maybe it’s fun too but you know it has another purpose
The first thing I do anytime a new poster posts OC is check their profile to see what they have there because it affects the nature of the relationship they are looking for here. In my opinion, if you are selling your content in any form then you have not ‘gonewild.’
The spirit of the original sub was to allow a space for exhibitionism. When you allow it to be used as a vector for advertising then it will unfortunately devolve into the low effort posts that we’ve begun to see with a high amount of frequency lately. I don’t think a full ban on advertising will be healthy for the community with as small as it is at the moment, but there need to be some checks put in place at the least.
I agree that all links in post titles, descriptions, and comments should not be allowed, but it should be okay for them to be in a users profile if someone chooses to seek that out. I think there should also be a harder stance taken on low effort engagement baits and OC posts where it’s clear the person themselves are not the one managing the accounts.
Probably ban links in posts/comments, but not on profiles. I think that’s a good in between stance that will keep this comm’s vibe while not driving away literally all the content.
Would probably kill off a good 50% of posts. So no.
Advertising, in my opinion, goes against the spirit of gone wild. I have no problem with OF as a platform, but I’d like to think gone wild is more spontaneous. Just my two cents. If people are that interested, they’ll click into the profile and find plenty an OF link.
If OF subscribers and mods decide they want advertising, they should remove Rule 7. Until then, it should be banned, as that’s the consensus. No one seems to have a problem with links in profiles, however.
Not sure why it matters. Ignore the links and don’t click them if you don’t want to. They’re still posting content, why did it actually matter other than some moral high ground for “pure” content or whatever you want to tell yourself.
As long as it isn’t copy pasted from some professional site and is at least the person posting their own stuff, I don’t care what their reasoning behind posting is.
Yeah, ban them. I want people to post because they want to, not because they are advertising. Makes the posts more genuine as well.

I don’t see a problem with it if it’s in your bio because if I’m really interested in the person, then I would at least click their profile to see their other posts.
There will be no incentive, it should be limited but not outright banned
The spirit of the original GW rules was to limit the sub to true amateur exhibitionists, so the community knew that anyone posting there was doing it for the fun of showing off. Allowing anyone who does it for money creates ambiguity if the post is for fun or advertising, and I feel that’s a negative.
I generally feel people who share good quality content and engage with communities are welcome, just not in gonewild or nofans which is by nature a seller-free space.

that’s true— I was referring to reddit gonewild, whose name may have referenced the girls gone wild video series but who started from the beginning as an amateur exhibitionist space for Reddit karma rather than money.
Is reddit culture really something you want to be chasing?
Reddit GW was taken over by a bunch of power hungry mods who did not care about posters or members in community… So it’s not a model of community that I would advocate emulating wrt “spirit of…”
Hell yes please. Keep it in the profiles.
