Hey gang, wanted to check-in on the state of the sub and get some suggestions/feedback from all of you.
With the recent post about users stealing content, I changed a couple settings. The main one being that (if all is working properly), only text submissions will be allowed. This means people won’t be able to submit only blog sites, hopefully cutting down on some reports. I also disallowed crossposting and image posting, as neither of these are necessary in erotica and will hopefully also contribute to a neater environment.
I know the mods haven’t been too active (although I did post a 1k word story recently, my first in forever!) and I want to apologize for that.
Having said all that, I’d like to hear from the community how we can grow and engage everyone so that this sub can be the best it can be.
Thank you!

I’m glad to hear those changes have been made, they should cut down on spam substantially. My experience posting/reading has been very positive.
No, thank you! These changes are much appreciated and were indeed warranted
Perfect changes, thanks.
A-plus on the changes! And as far as I am concerned, the sub is Perfect now! Everything I want, no extra frills! Thanks and keep uo the great work!
Instead of crossposting, are we allowed to copy and paste stories that we wrote in other sub-reddits? For example, can I write a story here, and also post it in /r/BDSMerotica or some other sub-reddit, or vice-versa?
Some users are repeat posting text posts with plagiarised content, and including links in the text to their blogs /website etc (which in turn has more plagiarised content).
Can we just blanket block posting those one or two urls? It’s always the same few.
