Not trying to trash talk sex work or anything, but the amount of creators skyrocketed with onlyfans popularity. It’s getting harder and harder for even extremely popular creators to make their entire living off OF at this point. And also, just like with mostly all forms of porn, they’re gonna age out of the industry by the time they hit their early/mid 30s. So I never understood why EVERY creator seems to think OF is a solution to getting a “real” job and believes it can cover their cost of living. The runway for that lifestyle is short. The smartest thing for a young person like Samuel to do would be to treat it like a side gig while having a part time job and/or going to school.

He wasn’t making enough from his OF. He was putting in so much time to filming but he wasn’t even clearing his rent. So he got demoralized and wanted to step back.
Well.. now he aint getting shit. Ik a lot of people are unsubbing after the management company switched everything to PPV.

Whyd he join a management company anyways? he was doing so well.
I was doing well. I was trying so hard to make the best stuff I could but when it comes down to it, only 0.5% of my income was tips and my subscription price is low. I have a shit ton of bills.
The attached comment hit the nail on the head

Really sad about this one. Put out interesting high quality content and was a fresh take on onlyfans, only to choke it and ruin his page potentially for good. Hopefully there’s a file set up for when this page goes down
Everything is backed up and saved. There is a master plan in order the og ones have already been informed to stay patient. This is only happening because my fans couldn’t even like the posts. Everything was for free but subs alone weren’t paying the bills.

One final reply to this thread. I love everyone that enjoyed my content so much but I’m going to have to figure something else out idk. I’m burnt out and bills were piling up I had to do something. Nothing was deleted and can be restored once I get things more figured out. Maybe the solution is focusing on my real career work during this time where I’m less concentrated on OF that way one day I don’t need a penny from anyone to release all of my legacy content for free for all. I’m trying my ass and dick and balls off in order to make it possible.

maybe I should just become a legit porn director?

But why just delete content with zero warning, it seems like that's one of the biggest issue with people. The lack of communication and deleting comments questioning it which only makes it look like you are attempting to hide something.

You could have left your preexisting content alone since people paid to watch that already or announce that collabs would be exclusively ppvs moving forward or even just raise your subscription price

Presumably it's the contract of the management company...he may not be legally able to keep the content up for 'free once subscribed'.

Ya, just shitty to delete everything with zero warning and even in these response it sounds very much like his manager told him what to say but interject his own personality throughout so it doesn't come off so produced which explains things like not directly talking about him being managed, the deleted comments, and keeping this "master plan" vague

It's also stupid to write a whole thing complaining about how bills are piling up yet have a management team you're paying to handle your OF when that's something you can do for free by yourself

The management team often isn’t paid directly by the creator, rather a portion of profits are directed back to the company. If he’s doing so bad he can’t pay bills, his process is “I can get this company and see if they help, and I can refocus if it doesn’t work” the reason why is understandable, but the execution was bad, but it may not have been this choice

Portion of what profits? Cuz if a portion of the profits from their only fans goes to the management company then that's essentially the same thing as paying them

Everything made from onlyfans is a profit, there’s no money going into it.

If you aren’t paying the bills, you might have to come to grips with the fact that you just aren’t gonna be one of the OF creators who generate enough interest to live off it REGARDLESS of what you do. Some people just never get there. You also need to look at your lifestyle and figure out if you’re living beyond your means. A lot of creators are. If you really like doing the OF and making content etc it might be time to look at it as a side gig and seek out something more financially stable so you can do the fun things WITHOUT having to depend on them to pay your bills. We’d all love to make a living off things we’re interested in and consider fun. But life just isn’t like that sometimes.

I don’t really understand the logic you used. You say that the bills were piling up and you had to do something because subscribers were not enough. What made you think that changing to PPV and removing your good content would boost your earnings? Instead those subscribers are unsubscribing. You also said it’s a temporary solution but to me it sounds like this made things worse.

It's definitely made things worse in terms of me considering a first time subscription. I've followed him on twitter for quite some time. I've been letting some of my OF subscriptions that I've had for awhile expire so that I could check out some new ones. I was really wanting to see the collab with Samuel and Daisy, but with all the feedback on here regarding the use of an account manager, deleting existing content and going to the PPV format, there won't be a subscription from me. I don't pay for material twice. If I'm paying a subscription price, that's it. There are plenty of hot guys on OF that have big dicks that don't do PPV's that I can check out.

Very disappointed about all the changes, he used to be such a humble, unique, dedicated creator and now the management trashes everything he stood for. I hate the whole communication, the DMs are almost offensive to me, the prices are insane, there is pretty much no information about what I'm buying it's just dumb sales talk ARE YOU EVEN PAYING ATTENTION? ARE YOU A LOYAL FAN? I summed up all DMs sent since June 24th - so exactly 1 month - and they add up to $550, which is absolutely ridiculous.

Yup. I asked them about the full video for a clip they sent in DMs. They quoted me $45 for a single 90s clip. When I called them out I just got a “sorry I can’t do anything to please you…”.
