I see two publicly available posts about PayPal on the site itself:
1. Why you should not use paypal:

2. A review of PayPal (which is important to leave up as the feedback is overwhelmingly bad and as people are use it regularly, taking down a warning doesnt make sense?):
http://www.wecamgirls.com/payment_reviews/paypal/ - I only see one person saying you should use it
So on the surface of the site youd think it is not PayPal friendly. If that is different inside, then fine. But inside is verified space.
I want to say that advertising the details of what happens in a verified group of sex workers in a public forum is not trying to protect or be an advocate for people new to the industry. Especially if people are doing things that are potentially harmful to themselves (scambait, stalkerbait). Aboveall since our forum is chockfull of lurkers who have bothered models online with SW info before and we've had these same lurkers soliciting SW members to use PayPal here before. It is self-aggrandizing to say 'I tried to tell them but they all love PayPal so much, I try to teach the newbs, but oh well' in a non-verified googleable high-traffic forum (out here) when that seems like a private conversation among sex workers who went through the process of verification to try to ensure their own privacy. It isnt tough to figure out who are the models on that site, so, yea, publicizing that info is stalkerbait.
If you tried, you tried, if it pissed you off - fine but talk about that somewhere else? If you dont want to, fine, that's your prerogative as uh an internet user but dont say youre protecting newbies when youre advertising a big googleable and scambaiting flaw in their business design that they arent making public themselves. Id be pissed if people spent a few threads openly discussing verified posts on SW on another forum - which
has happened and Im sure you would be as well. It is the same principle, no matter how wrong they are.
It is like saying "hey guys, come scam these models who love PayPal" and "protecting sex worker's privacy only matters if they are nice to me and agree with what I say" - one thing takes precedence over the other. Im really not to drag this out, but the impression I got from the pile-on was that sacrificing their verified privacy to brag/complain about the opportunity cost lost giving unsolicited advice was more important than the concept of verification itself. As all of us are in verified, Id assume we're there for a reason, so I just wanted to advocate for the purpose of verified sex worker groups... which is not to openly broadcast details of what is said... particularly if the people in that group arent here to defend themselves.
