Hey fellow Redditors,

I've been a part of this community for a considerable time, and like many of you, I'm here to seek genuine connections, share experiences, and be a part of enlightening discussions. However, recently, it seems like there's been a notable uptick in the number of cam girls, scammers, and profiles that clearly aim to monetize rather than genuinely connect.

While I respect everyone's hustle, platforms like this should prioritize authentic interactions. Scammers and solicitations not only diminish the authenticity of connections but also create a general sense of mistrust among genuine members.

Here's what I've observed:

1. An increase in profiles that, after minimal interaction, lead to promotion of paid content.

2. Direct solicitations for financial exchanges unrelated to any genuine discourse or connection.

3. Genuine members being pushed into thinking twice before initiating a conversation due to the fear of encountering a scam.

A call to the Moderators:

While we understand moderating such a vast platform is challenging, it's crucial to ensure that the essence of this community remains untainted. We need:

Stricter Verification Processes: Potential measures could include mandatory profile reviews or a more robust reporting mechanism.

Awareness and Education: Regular posts educating members on how to spot and report suspicious activities can be beneficial.

Community Involvement: Encouraging members to report dubious interactions and potentially setting up a community watch could help.

This isn't an attempt to police genuine content creators or those who openly and ethically promote their services. It's about preserving the essence of this community and ensuring that those seeking real connections aren't drowned out by a sea of scams.

To the genuine folks here, let's stand together. Report when necessary, stay educated, and help the mods in keeping this platform authentic.

Stay safe and keep connecting,
