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 don’t think it should be allowed in titles, watermarks, comments etc but I don’t see a problem with it being on someone’s profile so long as it’s not in the community. Just my opinion 🤷🏻♀️ Although, I was banned from reddit gw for having redgifs (which some subs require you to post with) and lemmy linked on my profile. Kind of silly since I asked if it was okay and was told I could continue posting, only for them to change their mind a couple days later.
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.
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.
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.
If you share quality content here, you should be able to include a link to your OF for those that want more. What I think is not ok is low effort, teaser posts with an OF link. They do not add value to the community. Want to link your OF? Make sure to contribute some OC. No reposts!.
And that is what this all turns into if we allow links in posts.
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.
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.
You already barely have any content.
Are you stupid enough to try and suffocate the people giving you content?
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’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.
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.
No - they should be allowed in post description/body
a plug for your onlyfans in the post title or description should be alright
