What I think it boils down to is the the type of attitude that users here give to another. I've seen multiple cases of users here share a generous amount of content here only to be criticized by another user over it not using one drive over another or asking for "moar" without even a sliver of appreciation. That alone would force most people here to switch into a trade only mindset. As any community gets bigger and bigger, you're bound to have more unappreciated users and straight up greedy assholes than those who take the time to upvote and give you an appreciation comment, which in turn will discourage the minority who do provide most of the content to freely give it out and receive nothing in return.

As for paid content, just remember that the model has a life, bills, and an unborn baby to take care of. We've already had countless models show up here and either complained or outright threatened to stop making content due to too many users leaking their content too soon. Like what was said earlier, it's just a matter of balance between what we can share freely and what has to be kept in trade.

Yep yep yep.

It's one thing to share random photos or videos that are out there for free, by it's another to share a product. I'm no saint myself when it comes to that, but I can still point to a folder on my drive full of content I've paid for over the years.

The whole trade thing doesn't impress me much either, though. I'd rather people not do it at all. Either post it or don't. Buy it or don't. Whatever.
