With this blessing, I shall now do a minor (but also not so minor) rantypants thread on a few things in no particular order relating to interacting with SWrs and content creators online... https://twitter.com/greg_battiste/status/1311675510947115009

Dont be a dick: SWrs regardless of gender identity are human beings. Talk to them like people, treat them with respect. While they may choose to play an erotic role, they do so within specific context. BE NICE!

A models/ creators rates are their rates. Whether is a subscription fee, stock content/ product sale, chat or custom requests they are entitled to fix their rates however they like.

Haggling is not respectful.
If a creator says "It will cost $150 for a custom video" then that is what it costs.
If you cannot afford that, then politely say so! Do not try and get them to reduce their rates.

Creators WANT to make content for you, they want to sell you the things that gratify you, so instead of going "Oh can you do it for this much instead" try this:

"Im really sorry but thats a bit out of my budget at the moment, would it be possible to get something else for this amount instead for now?" ...or some derivation of.

In relation to point [2], TIP THE MODELS! Even if its only the cost of a coffee. People seem to really be obvlivious to the amount of work it takes to create this type of content and little signs of appreciation REALLY make creators happy and enthusiastic about making more.

STOP ASKING FOR FREE STUFF!!!
Never. Ever. EVER. Ask a content creator to give you their time or energy free of compensation. EVER.
No samples, no "try before you buy"... just no.
Stop it.

When making requests for custom content, pay sooner rather than later. Give them a deposit if you can't pay the full amount right away.

Creators get a lot of requests both small and large on a regular basis. Putting your money where your mouth is means they know you are serious about buying the content.

Do not push a creators content levels.
In the same way SWrs set thier own rates they also set thier own limits. If a creator doesnt perform a particular act or fetish then do not try and talk them round to doing it.

It goes back to point [1] in showing a complete lack of respect.
If a creator says "No sorry I dont do that" then accept that answer and move on. That is the end of it.

If you are one of the few people that knows the IRL identity of a SWr and have details of their private life, DO NOT EVER GIVE OUT THOSE DETAILS!
You can ruin lives. You can END lives.
Keep that shit to yourself.

To end on a lighter note (for the moment), if you enjoy a persons content... TELL THEM!
Creators want to know if what they make is making their subscribers and fans happy. They want to know they have made you feel good.

Positive feedback on a creators work makes that creator keep going.
Yes they want the money, they have bills to pay, but they want to create things that people enjoy.
Retween them, recommend them! SHOW THEM LOVE!
