What better time to make a big update post than at 11pm EST on a Wednesday night?
Hello once again! Some of you may have noticed there's been some changes to the subreddit. Well, the cats out of the bag now! I'll be going through all the changes we've made thus far and what that means for us and the community as a whole! If reading isn't your thing or you don't have the time, feel free to scroll down to the bottom of the post to see the TL;DR.
(One thing I want to make clear is that we want feedback, suggestions, and criticism! We're actively looking to make new changes to the subreddit to make it more enjoyable for everyone.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
A long time overdue, probably, but it's here now and it's mandatory going forward. This should hopefully help people avoid fetishes they'd rather not see or see more of exactly what they come here for! It should also help people better understand what they're allowed to post on this subreddit. To go over them really quick:
Taboo Porn - This flair depicts porn that's got a little spice to it; content that some users would rather not see. This list can definitely increase with time, but the current list of Taboo Porn can be found in the wiki, the rules, and for accessibility sake, right below:
Netorare (Ntr), Cheating, Race Play, Consensual Non-Consensual (CnC), and Anthropomorphic Characters (Furries).
Banned content is still banned content. Do not post it:
Scat, Gore (Guro), Loli, Shota, Watersports (Peeing), Diapers, Prolapse, Vore (Hard & Soft), Giantess/Giant, and Financial Domination (Inc. Coercion)
Porn: Simply put, if it's not Taboo and it's not Banned content, this is your option! Memes that are pornographic in nature are still considered memes first and foremost. This is for your content that's meant to be sexually arousing and just that.
Discussion: Feedback, suggestions, criticisms, discussions; if it's a text post and it's not a erotic story, just slap a Discussion tag on it! This doesn't include Looking for players/partners/sluts posts. Those are still against the rules and you'll be guided to the LFG/LFP Megathread that's still active. Beside that? Feel free to discuss anything relating to Healsluts!
Memes: This is always a dangerous one to explicitly allow because people like to post some unhinged and wild memes that are warn or ban worthy, but we'll trust you to use some common sense. Keep it Healsluts related and keep it TOS-safe.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
You might have noticed that some of rules & guidelines have changed a little. Please take the time to reread through them and make sure you're not accidentally breaking any new rules. They haven't changed dramatically, but it's better safe than sorry and we did try to make it more clear what you shouldn't be doing. Again, just give it a quick glance.
In addition to this, but not really worthy of its own GIANT TEXT, we've also buffed up the clarity for the rules and any moderation that goes about in the subreddit. If you've ever been confused, this should help you be less confused.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
With the ever increasing amount of horny people joining our smutty ecosystem, the rampant AI posts, and the increase in no-brain gooners (You can't just post Harley Quinn and say "I love losing at video games! <3<3"); it's become apparent that I and the community need help. So, without further ado, I'd like to welcome our newest moderator: Moechai!
"o/ Hi there! I'm moechai (aka moe).
I'm unsure if anyone noticed when I got added as a mod here, but I'm fairly new to modding this subreddit. I've been in the healslutting community for a long time, & I truly hope this announcement and the changes being made are clear and will be well received! I genuinely want to help with making this subreddit more straight-forward, fleshed out, & fun of course... but most importantly, easier & friendlier as a whole. I may be very new here but I really hope the more I interact with you all (as a regular user & a mod) it'll feel a lot less like 'oh no, a mod' when you see me around. I'm just a random idiot lmao
A little bit about me (even though I'm terrible at these kinds of posts...):
• I'm at heart an MMO junkie, but other games currently have my attention. (Committing to battlepasses are fun when you lose interest half-way and it becomes a chore... right? Ahahhaa... please... I know I'm not alone in this... ;;)
• I love everything creative related and draw sometimes as well! Maybe, eventually, I'll draw something that's on-brand with this subreddit. I think that would be really cool to share with you all. :head_shaking_vertically:
• I'd love to be a rat, because either way, I am in a cage despite all my rage & in the rubber room. (I also have a pet fancy rat!! :rat:)
It was nice to meet you, internet stranger!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
While there's nothing immediately that you'll be seeing from us, we plan to return this place into more of a community again instead of the goon-sesh that it's kind of become. (Not a bad thing, horny good. But you kind of have to admit it's become a little TOO cock drunk in here...) Porn posts are still going to be fine, but they should be a little more in line with what healsluts y'know, is.
Expect events, meta-discussions, holiday fun, raffles, contests, and more in the future! By the way, did you know our 9th anniversary is coming up? We're actually arriving to the big 1 0 soon in a year! That's a sex joke just waiting to happen!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you know this was a thing? I didn't! But apparently there's a bunch of handy little tools that'll enable us to function a bit better as a subreddit!
For transparency sake, the installed apps are: Image Sourcery, Modmail Quick User Summary, and Subreddit Statistics.
We'll be keeping an eye on any other useful or fun apps to add to the subreddit. If you happen to see any that you'd like to suggest, feel free to send us a modmail or post a comment below!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
TL;DR Version:
New Rules, New Moderator, Post Flairs, More Fun, and more moderation.
The purpose of this Megathread, as if it isn't already known, is to help others find partners or friends to play with, as well as be lewd with. As you are giving out personal information, be sure you don't say anything that could lead you into a bad situation.
❗❗REMEMBER❗❗: There are bad people out there.
Only share personal information with people you know well and think before spending any money on them. We are not held responsible for your naivety...
To make it short: Be careful.
You can follow which ever format you wish when it comes to advertising yourself, but it's recommended you follow the format below as it makes your post more appealing to look at, and gives off a better impression. Basically, formatting matters. Nobody wants someone who builds a wall of messy text over a neat organized easy to read posts.
Edit the format to your liking, include what you like and take out what you do not like.
This is a recommended guideline not a rulebook.
**Primary Role:** Healer, Healslut, Healbrat, Healdom, Tank, Tanksub, Tankbrat, Tankdom, DPS, DPSsub, DPSbrat, DPSDom, or Switch. This is what you prefer first or what you are the majority of the time.
**Secondary Role:** If any. Healer, Healslut, Healbrat, Healdom, Tank, Tanksub, Tankbrat, Tankdom, DPS, DPSsub, DPSbrat, DPSDom, or Switch. This is what you prefer second or what you are some of the time.
**Sex OR Gender:** What is your biological sex or, alternatively, what is your gender? You can also include preferred pronouns. The more clear you are, the better.
**Sexual Orientation:** Heterosexual, Bisexual, Homosexual, etc.
**Age:** Your real physical age. No rounding up or rounding down.
**Known Languages:** What is your native tongue and what other languages do you speak, if any? This will help people find others that speak languages they're more comfortable with or are looking to learn themselves.
**Games Played:** Games you happen to play often that you can play with others or feel you could involve other people in.
**System:** Your gaming system, if you happen to use a gaming console or a PC, make sure to let others know.
**Timezone:** Your timezone will let people know of your availability as well as the general idea of where you live without breaching your privacy.
**Opening Message:**
*This will be your opening message. Be sure to fill this section with as much information as you like, really try to reel people in. Who are you? What do you want? Are you new? Are you experienced? Pet-peeves? Etc. A premade opening message has been created to give a proper example: Hey there! I'm new to this subreddit and concept but i'd love for someone to teach me the ropes. I'd like to hang out with a group of Doms with their subby sluts on the side, maybe get to boasting on which of our sluts' are the best. I play to have fun and would love to have a cute little healer to protect. I have a really nice mic and I'm on quite often, but keep in mind: I'm not really the abusive rough type, so you might wanna look for someone else if that's what you want!*
There's also Discord servers you may join that allows you to find people easily to play with, hang out with, and maybe even get to know a little better. There's varying sizes of users in each server, so pick which one fits best.
Along with the helpful advice above, there are tools you may use in order to give off a better impression of yourself and what you may want in others. The links below will help you accomplish this.
What is it?
BDSM Test is what you would expect: a site for showing your BDSM qualities; what you're into without diving too much into your fetishes. If you are look for a more vague way to show your interests than the other two options below, this would be your go to. It's quite limited and it is a survey, so it's bound to get some things wrong.
What is it?
F-List is a site made by the furry community that functions very well as a place to show off what your fetishes and kinks are as well as what you dislike. It's a great tool with quite the expansive list of fetishes and kinks. Even if you don't share your fetishes, it's good to be organized with them, not to mention it removes the "Are you okay with X?" conversations that tend to happen.
What is it?
Kinklist is a site that allows you to show off what your fetishes and kinks are as well as what you dislike. While F-List is purely restricted to the site, Kinklist exports out to an image that can be shared wherever you like. The drawback is that it's quite lacking in overall fetishes and kinks, however, being open-source, you can fix this by putting the missing kinks and fetishes yourself.
What is it?
This is a guide that should help the newer users into healsluts as a whole. Both figuratively and very literally. It's a must read and will generally help you get a better idea of what to do, how to do it, and what not to do. It's highly recommended you read this before even posting.
Last but not least:
Feel free to repost your comment as many times as you like, so long as you wait a day before reposting!
