It has been suggested that /r/AgeGapPersonals should remove a lot of posts related to BDSM type relationships as they intimidate more mainstream people from posting. On the one hand I can see the benefits of this, but on the other I do not want to do as Tumblr (and nearly OnlyFans) did and remove a lot of our posters to find that splitting the subreddit makes it diluted and with far less readers. Personally I believe you're all adults and can ignore adverts you're not interested in, but you may think differently.

One answer to this might be to create a 'safer' subreddit, or alternatively make this one safe and create a subreddit for more extreme personal adverts.

Another answer might simply be to create some more flairs to filter out extreme adverts, but this relies on users using the right flair, or a lot of homework for the moderators.

So I guess I have some questions:

1. Should I split the subreddit up?
2. If so, how should I split the subreddit up and what should we call the new one?
3. What should be the rules for the safe subreddit?

P.S You may find you get messages about your comments being removed. Ignore them as we'll manually approve your comments later. It's just a side effect of our rule to only allow approved or high karma users to comment.
