General

There's a guy on here who'll make an account every once in awhile, view my profile, then delete. It's been happening for several years now, the same person (I'm assuming, since it's the same person in their profile pictures). It's a bit annoying, but I don't engage with it.

For ghosts who DM and then vanish, I just delete it and move on. It's really not worth my time.

I've had someone veiw my account almost every single day for the last 4+ months, who shows up as photo-less, ageless, and clicking on them does nothing. I assume it's a deleted account if that's the case, I'm not entirely sure. The only indicator I get at all is the flag icon for Fiji.

I'm wondering if anyone else has gotten this for as long as I have? If not, I suspect it's my ex, who I met here, who vanished from my life out of nowhere over the summer. If it is a real person, whoever it is, making a new account 6 times a week is insanity.

I think some would find it strange but I recognize a few profiles over the years I've been here and it's just nice to see that someone is still in the community and doing well.

Sadly, I made this recent friend and discovered he deleted his account. I don't know if I said something that upset him to factor in his account removal. I hope he is doing ok.

I understand why people do this. I've been through periods where I don't log in for ages because of stuff going on irl or just phases of being more drawn to other kinks. But it still is a pity - and there have been so many good stories lost over the years because the writers deleted their accounts!

It requires thick skin or a brain callous. Many fakes, only kidding, flirtations and the such. I've fallen for so many over the years and I am still here, still hoping

Right!!???
I literally talked about this about 2 days ago lol
It's freaking weird

Spiritual continuity

Especially when they have no profie picture, other pictures, videos of temselves and no posts.

I know I have a habit of doing this, and I'm not averse to anyone, but I have my reasons. Believe it or not, I often use this website as drawing reference. Don't worry, I haven't downloaded anybody's pictures. The very reason why I don't is because I'm creating my own. But I am always studying how fat accumulates, where, what shape it might take, what common shapes there are, lighting, etc.
And I use this place for it because it's the only space everyday people are on it willingly showing their own progression in gaining weight rather than models all the time. I always want to get things as realistic as possible. What I draw is more of an amalgamation of things I've seen here, personally, and in other people's art. Plus whatever my arm actually can draw. If I've been on your profile in the past, chances are I was looking for someone around your exact size and I was studying one out of many possible ways that I could draw. I do also realize it may seem invasive, and if it is so for you, I do apologize.

But there are some profiles I've noticed that say "Do not interact, don't even look at the pictures, this is only for me". If I've been on your profile and went into your pictures, I do apologize.

Aside from those two things, I try and keep my sex-specific profile and my main profile separate, leaving out as many personal details as I can because, well... Too many places have all our data. If you want to chat and I've been on your profile, I'm open to it. I'm just not exactly open relationship-wise right now, so I'm not looking here for partners. I'm trying to keep things as professional as possible.
Just art and chatter.
