I have seen one person link an article that says this means no hardcore BDSM or things already against the rules, but there has not been a source for this information so I don't think it is correct.
What the fuck are they thinking?? They will go the way of tumblr for this.
AVN Stars here I come.
OnlyFans are going to lose so much money doing this. Stupid.
IDK, I think it may be true because they're completely ignoring the comments on Twitter.
If it were false they should have addressed it by now. Currently their pinned tweet is about a contest for mainstream content creators.

I don't want it to be true. It's just that I'm no longer surprised when it comes to this industry. You always need a backup... even for your backup.
Yeah twitter is going crazy over it...you would think they would be in PR mode to stop the false rumours if it wasnt true.
Celebs are going to still be able to sell their highly edited barely see anything nudes there, just not us.
The Banks & billing companies are facing lots of pressure from Christian groups. OF is simply not given a choice in this matter. It is either play by the bank's rule or don't have a way to bill customers or pay content creators. Look they have already pulled the banking from Pornhub, this is another major win for those Christian groups.
Now it will be easier to apply that pressure to other adult platforms & companies.
OF is bringing in $12 Billion a year, there are plenty of content creators that don't do hardcore that do well on that site. Even if it made half that money, a $6 billion a year company is still very successful no matter what it does.
I only do solo stuff on my OF and do very well, moved away from hardcore over 5 years ago for many reasons. One of them is seeing how conservatives would start winning these battles.
Yes, you can migrate to another site, Fancentro is ready for the influx. And Stan has always been a stand up guy to me. Eventually, all porn companies will be pushed in the same way. On the other hand, sell your hardcore at a premium price, cause it is about to become harder for horny men to get it.
That fucking SUCKS! Well dudes will just have to venture outside of OnlyFans, and start checking out our stuff on other platforms then, such as MFC Share, ManyVids, IWantClips, Clips4Sale, etc.
Damn shame...
Maybe that MV Crush Club feature on ManyVids will become more popular now.
I knew they were moving toward this but I really just thought they would allow us to stay but hide our stuff and not promote it, sort of a soft shadowban, but nope!
I should have known better. Still surprised they actually are going to ban it all.
I love AVNStars because they are made for and by the adult industry and traffic does seem to be picking up there. They have a lot of cool features (like groups for different fetishes you can make on your account - like for example findom - that your fans who want that can join and it keeps those who don't want that particular content from having to sift through it). Groups are sort of a fanclub within a fanclub. You can also block someone and set a price to be unblocked which is awesome lol.
Leo owns MFC, OF & AvnStars Now, no hardcore allowed on MFC, guess we will have to wait and see if this will apply to AVNStars too.

But within the next few years all adult platforms will be targeted to remove hardcore content or lose their ability to get paid. It is the banking system making these decisions and crypto is less than 1% of all porn sales.
Is solo stuff with toys included in sexually explicit content? Does anyone have experience with justforfans?
XBIZ is saying they received a statement from Onlyfans - https://www.xbiz.com/news/261177/onl...ing-in-october
Pornhub went down due to these underage girls being exploited
their stories are here: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/04/o...afficking.html
and here: https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-51391981
You always need to stay several steps ahead of the game. Glad I stayed solo. Less to worry about and count on
If you have hardcore content, start raising your prices on the older stuff already published & place a premium price on new hardcore. Next few years are going to be interesting to say the least.
Never place all your eggs in one basket, always look to building up a sfw revenue like gaming or youtube or affiliate work like Minnie does.
We all just have to adapt & figure out a way to take these hits & then turn them to our advantage. As a woman who has been in the sex industry for 32 years, I adapt & thrive.

forgive my ignorance but what actually counts as "hardcore" in these scenarios? particularly in a solo setting. are we talking about *anything* penetrative? toys? orgasms? basically anything pornographic? what specifically isn't allowed on MFC anymore? (i am only on Streamate, but am very curious)
are you suggesting that within a few years, nothing that is effectively pornographic will be allowed on cam or subscription sites, even behind a paywall? (i know it's hypothetical, but i'm trying to get a grasp on all of this)
Now I saw this thread on Twitter https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1...001831425?s=20 And if what he says is true, the banks threatened to pull all payment abilities & a lifetime ban for the owner and admin from ever being able to get billing or paying people.
Since this is such a serious threat and implemented, it can easily be done to all adult sites.
he says this as a response to a comment further down the thread:
"Other porn sites use so-called "bulletproof" providers that charge a high fee and put you in Visa/MC's highest risk tier (adult content = loads of chargebacks). They can do that because they're classified as "adult video". The interactive nature of OF has made people pressure Visa/MC into reclassifying OF as "sex work", not "adult video". "Adult video", a merchant bank can provide services to, albeit expensively; "sex work", they can't."
i get that this is a whole discussion about recategorizing different types of adult media, but doesn't this imply that as long as adult sites properly implement high risk CC processing, then they should be fine?
i personally don't see why "sex work" and "adult video" should be separated if the chargeback risks are effectively the same, which seems to be a major point here. he notes that the "interactive nature" of OF has been considered -- but how is that any different from live cam sites, which i assume also use the highest risk tier of payment processing?
Yes, he does. One way to grow is to buy out other companies. It is also how all business evolve, look at how many companies Facebook has bought out like Instagram & WhatsApp.
Stan owns model Centro, Fan Centro & now Clips4Sale.
Mindgeek owns most of the tubes, Brazzers, Twisties and many other porn sites. Xvids owns Reality Kings and such.
It is important to me to know who owns the companies I work for, to keep track of it all. Helps me predict what is next in the industry. Also so I can diversify my income, so if one company goes down I can concentrate on another.
But in the end, it is the Visa & Mastercard that rules over all of us. They are our Landlords.
I was just gonna post on this. I wonder what people are gonna do now if their sole content was porn.
