I just got this message from the auto-moderator after posting on the adult subreddits:
Please use approved hosts are (imgur.com, minus.com, media.tumblr.com, tumblr.com xTube.com, xVideos.com, xHamster.com, PornHub.com, RocketTube.com, MyVidster.com, Youtube.com, RedTube.com, Vimeo.com, i.reddituploads.com, Minus.com, Gyfcat.com.) If you’d like to suggest a host, please send a message to the mods.
I messaged the mods as this is basically endorsing pirate links, which other subreddits are really careful with. Let’s see if they get back with anything.
CowanGuestSo, just a load of predominantly free porn sites with plenty of stolen content…
I guess the “mods” of that are members of the generation who all seem to think every adult video ever made is created through the charity of companies out of the kindness of their hearts – someone else will pay for it, right?MonjackGuestHey Everyone
I manage a few subreddits, main gay one being /r/NSFW_GAY/ with around 10k subscribers and accept blog submissions, if you can limit submissions to 1 per day per blog as subscribers go crazy and report everything as spam otherwise leading me to needing to remove them as reddit admins get on your back if you constantly get “spammed”.
Regarding adult affiliate links these are actually not allowed globally as per Reddit’s rules, I would suggest sending traffic to you blogs not direct to sponsor.
For anyone posting anything FrenchTwinks related you can also submit links at my new sub-reddit /r/FrenchTwinks/ but again please limit links to 1 per day for above reasons, SwissBucks & FrenchTwinks will be working to build this sub over the coming months.
It is worth noting though that with all reddit accounts you are not supposed to use solely for advertising, so posting some relevant images to large subreddits linking to some tumblr photos is best practice, as accounts with 100% of links pointing to 1 domain are usually closed by reddit as spammers with the URL being globally banned on reddit so be careful!
MonjackGuest@jazzme,
Its worth noting both these subreddits are owned by the same person who owns around 90% of all porn reddit traffic. Have a chat with him he is a decent bloke but is 100% against reddit spam.
jazzmeGuestThanks for the input guys. I had an exchange with one of the mods. According to him the trailer videos can be found on the studio sites and if anyone would want to see those they can just go directly to the original site. I don’t even want to expand more on this as they are clearly endorsing illegally uploaded full scenes.
Sorry, did not mean to imply that you’re not playing by the rules. Not sure what you do differently that sits well with them, maybe you have some longer videos that are considered ‘good content’.
JerrylGuestWith the money they make on pirating you’d think they’d want to have some legitimate people there.
