Announcement: New DMs and Communications Policy (October 2025)
Hey! Due to my new time and scheduling constraints, there will be some changes in how I handle my DMs with respect to PPV video purchase requests, custom order requests, and other communications (e.g., casual chatting, Discord). The main points are shared in the numbered list below. I will also explain my rationale in the second half of this post.
Main points:
(1) All of my DMs will be combed through regularly (around twice a week) by my newly-hired assistant. She will categorize the DMs for me so I can reply to them efficiently and in a timely manner. You may sometimes see a "read" receipt on your message before I am able to reply due to her checking the message for me. I also have written out message templates for my assistant to copy-and-paste/customize for common questions. But as I will explain more in the next point, if you are tipping for a casual conversation with me, you will be talking with me (Peachy) and not my assistant.
(2) I am no longer able to provide casual DM chats (i.e., one-on-one chats that are not about PPV purchases, custom requests, or questions about how to navigate my content/community) that do not include at least a $5 tip per correspondence. Longer correspondences will require at least a $10 tip. This applies retroactively to existing DMs as well. This change is a very sad decision for me, but as I will explain later, it is simply no longer feasible for me to continue to attempt to provide this. π£ But one piece of potentially money-saving news is that I am no longer requiring an additional tip (on top of the $5 to $10) to receive my feedback on your media (e.g., "dick ratings")! If your media is long (i.e. a large number of photos or a video over 1 minute long), please include a $10 tip. Also, if you are tipping to have a casual, one-on-one conversation with me (Peachy), you are guaranteed to speak with me and not my assistant. The protocol is for her to hand off any of these messages to me.
(3) If you want to chat with me (and my community!) without tipping per correspondence, I encourage you to join my Discord server! The invitation link is in the "Discord" button in my bio. I try to be as active as I can in the VIP channels (which, as a current or former subscriber of mine, you are able to gain access to via a verification process). My assistant is helping me moderate my Discord server and approve verification requests now, too, so things should run more smoothly.
(4) All video purchase requests should still be sent to me over DM. I still encourage you to start the first words of the last message you send with the phrase "Purchase Request" to be safe, even though my assistant will be able to comb through all of the DMs to see if they contain purchase requests. If there is a specific video that you are looking to purchase, please also provide the URL, date, or a very specific description of the video. If the purchase request is simple, my assistant will handle it for me.
(5) All custom video/photoset requests should still be sent to me over DM. Again, I still encourage you to start the first words of the last message you send with the phrase "Purchase Request" to be safe. You can find my most recent customs pricing menu in my pinned post or under the label "Custom pricing menus".
Rationale:
The biggest change here is the fact that I will no longer be engaging in casual DM chats without tips.
If you've been around for a while, you might know that I find it important to be able to make a positive impact on those who enjoy my content in whatever small ways that I can. Since I started creating content in 2021, being able to talk to my fans about how my content makes them feel has been an important way for me to be able to get the feedback that makes me feel fulfilled as a content creator.
But as my following grew (which I am incredibly grateful for) and as my commitments increased, it became increasingly difficult for me to keep up with my DMs. The days it took for me to reply to a DM grew into weeks and, as some of you may have seen in the past year, sometimes even months. π£ The long waiting times that I put my fans through made me feel guilty and sad, as I do genuinely wish I could keep up with all of my DMs. One obvious limiting factor is time, which I am generally short on. But another is the fact that I am very introverted and tend to be socially anxious (more so over text than in person, as I am always afraid of being misunderstood over text). It takes me a lot of energy and willpower to talk to others, even to my IRL friends in my personal life. So when I am busy, tired, and stressed, talking to one more person--whether they are a fan or an IRL friend--often feels impossible.
I recently became a full-time graduate student again and am also spending a lot of time and energy to working on my non-content career. As some of you may now, I was a full-time content creator from 2023 to early 2025, but am now transitioning out of full-time content creation. (I still enjoy content creation greatly and do not plan to stop doing it, but I do not want to continue to pursue it full-time.) I am now busier than I have ever been--I've only been able to work out 1-2 times each week and hang out with friends once a month. π£ The workload has been tough, but I have goals I want to pursue so I am dedicated to keeping up with it.
Unfortunately, my ability to keep up with my content creation work has taken a hit as well. I do not want to further sacrifice my ability to produce content. To attempt to remedy this, I am finally doing what I have been advised by my creator colleagues to do a long time ago--which is to hire an assistant and close casual chats.
I really hope that I can open casual untipped casual chats up again one day. But I don't know if or when that could realistically happen. On one hand, I am very happy to have enough of a following to have a viable content creation business. But I do miss the more personal connections I had with my fans in my earlier days as a creator, and I still remember many of those conversations fondly. In the meanwhile, I feel like the best I can do for now is to set more realistic expectations for what kinds of communication with fans I can keep up with and get administrative support from my assistant.
Over the next few days, I will be going through my DMs to notify you guys of these changes. If these are somehow a dealbreaker for you, I would understand. I am grateful to all of the support I have received anyway, even when I know I could have done a better job running my page. (Idk if it is obvious, but I am not a very good businessperson or salesperson... I am just a passionate and perverted nerd. π ) Anyway, thank you very much for all of your patience and support. It means the world to me! I hope I can continue to have you enjoy my content for a long time to come. β€οΈπ
