What you will never find here
- No fake people
- No invented profiles, no fabricated testimonials, no stock-photo "members."
- No fake numbers
- No made-up viewer counts, follower counts or community statistics. If we cite a figure, we link the source.
- No NCII, ever
- Non-consensual intimate imagery — "leaks," hidden-cam, doxxing — is never hosted, embedded or linked.
- No Telegram funnels
- We don't run or link "nudes" channels. Adult links go only to legal, consensual platforms, clearly marked.
- No pretending
- We're under new, independent ownership since 2026 and we say so. We didn't write the old site and don't claim it.
