Lately, I have seen a lot of models posting on our instance, and I’m not against it, but I noticed that some of them post the same photo in many communities, resulting in feed subscribed or local with the same photo every page or multiple page.
I want to see these kind of photos/models, thats why I don’t block them, otherwise are fine to post what ever they want.

Is it only me who see it as spam? and should we limit these models ?

    I’m not sure what you’re asking and I don’t know why I would reach out to what basically amounts to a bot.

    Every model is “19” with the same genericly structured backstory. They post 4-6 pictures, across several communities (usually barely applicable to the community) with OF trials links that have very recognizable and poorly translated titles. When one model stops their spam, the next in line starts about a minute or two later. They always start with every one of their clients on the first day and then usually only do about two or three every following day for about a week. They’ve been following this pattern for months.

        It’s not necessarily a nefarious actor. There are many social media management agencies that provide services like these out there. It’s very likely the models pay the agency to do this.

        wondering what the models might think about their images being

        They might not give a fuck, but we as the community give a fuck cause we browser this community every day.

          Certainly they’d have paid but more likely they were told that there was a promotional strategy rather than, ‘I’m going to make you quite unpopular on various platforms.’

              You’ve missed my point. They will have been told something works to their benefit. If they find out that it doesn’t they won’t pay for it.

                  Unless they like to be paid in rancid cum, I don’t see how those people are actually of any benefit to the models. They need to convert the views to engagement.
