Yes, but have never really enjoyed using them.
It's that awkward moment waiting for him to get it on.

Forgetting my earpods/headphones when I have to get get a train.
When one earpod dies.
Dirty hands.
Messy people.
People that send 10 little messages instead of one long message.
Loud eating.
Slurpy foods.
Crisp packets rustling during a film/show.
People eating smelly food in office instead of the resturant.
People coughing at work.
People whisteling.
Phone calls on trains.
People checking themsleves onto a hospital on social Media.
Just people, apparently. π€£

Mine still defaults to send on enter, certainly for my phone anyway.
Mine is the same on my phone currently.
However, i do believe it was working correctly on my tab earlier.
Not 100% sure though, as i shift+enter out of habit to start a new line anyway, thanks to MS Teams.

How many do that, Georgia, many top-tier writers are still hereabouts? Lol, maybe I'm not on the list, but I've never thought of publishing elsewhere. I came here having published elsewhere and haven't submitted on another site ever since. Most of the writers I know are in the same boat.
Not you, but I can guarentee that some have moved on from Lush in the past to publish professionally due to the previous lack in reward.
That is the quality this site has consistently had at the top of the table.

OnlyFans, it isn't really a story site.
No, that is why I included the mention of OF in the section highlighting the pay-to-play aspect in chat.
Quote by CuriousAnnie
Honestly I write for fun and enter competitions to test myself. The rewards are the validation of my peers, never the money.
Maybe not, but I bet you wouldn't turn the coin and chance of payment down if it was gifted, now that it is a thing.

After all where else would I go. π
Nowhere! Lush is the best free-subscription Erotica website on the planet, which can now pay you in e-coin!
Quote by Seeker4
She's not saying the coins would be exchanged in chat. The action being paid for would be done in chat, then the payor would reward them by putting coins on their stories.
I can see other scenarios where this could be abused, too. Not to mention the kind of gameplaying that can happen as people jockey to get coins.
As I said, I'll see how this plays out, but the concerns expressed by utterchaos and some others are not without merit.

anything can be abused. if someone really wants to abuse it, they'll probably figure out a way - our job is to make sure than any one that abuses it gets their hands slapped or what have you. i mean, in the past we had abuses with voting - not that much different, really and, personally, i would rather see a little abuse if it means rewarding some of better and more popular writers. or, really, anyone who writes.
Granted, cyber-for-coin is not ideal.
However, as long as there is the ability to gift something, somewhere on the site, this will happen. Regardless of what rules we have or what new rules we bring in to combat it.
People already roleplay in chat/PM for the gift of membership upgrades.
As long as the person paying for membership/coin is complicit and fully aware of what is happening, then is there a much greater issue??
This could have the added bonus of keeping members on-site, rather than sharing content via an off-site source, like OnlyFans for example (which we have seen being mentioned first hand, on profiles and in chat).
Gifting Lushcoin could potentially reduce the cost of what is gifted if a member cannot afford much, whilst still wanting to make a contribution.
Lushcoin rewards those writers which have truly, top-tier ability and (hopefully) prevents them taking material elsewhere which is financially funded in a professional authorship capacity.
What resolution was the video?
If its 2K resolution (2048 x 1080) or higher, that could well be a result of compressing the file on upload.
The same if the video was recorded with camera satbilization switched on.
Also, if uploaded to say, something like or Tiktok, they will gradually lose quality if re-downloaded from there and re-uploaded somewhere else.
I was that sporty, nerdy girl with wonky teeth, that loved technology and hung around with the boys playing football at lunch, because most of the girls picked on me and I was better at football than most of the boys.
Now I am that sporty, nerdy girl with great teeth and a job in technology that I love.
I wouldn't trade any of it now.

A problem I am seeing is when I have a lot of unread notifications.
Just now there were 83 notifications, I opened it up and as usual, it showed ten of them.
I looked at them and none were interesting to me, and all were from the same person so I clicked 'dismiss 10'. What happened was there were ten but from the same person again.
I did this a few times and the list that showed was the very same list with the same posting date. it's not deleting the item showing but from the bottom of the list, which I hadn't seen yet. I went through the entire list of 83, seeing only the first ten.
The easiest way you can check all these is to go to "interactions" via your profile icon in the top right.
I am fortunate in the fact I don't think I could ever have been considered as having depression.
Stress induced anxiety? Yes, as a teenager I went through some pretty awful times.
My personal ways of dealing with stress which I would recommend though, are;
1) Running until I can't anymore then walk back.
2) Kickboxing - get rid of the aggression that is caused by stress.
3) Gym
4) Get rid of any diet(s) and eat food which I enjoy, foods which make me happy, but keep exercising!!
5) Having a chat with people outside the situation that are close to me.
6) Do not drink any alcohol.
Do I think that is the correct way to do it for most people? No, not at all, but that is what works for me.
Everyone is different and enjoys different things.
As for the depression, I would suggest speaking with a professional. 100%.
Again, it is not something I can say I have been unfortunate enough to have experienced, but people close to me have, it was heartbreaking to see.
However, each of those people searched for someone to sit and talk to, watching them become "themselves" again during that process was rewarding for us all on the outside. I can't imagine how it felt to release.
Look for non-medicated alternatives first and seek medication if you are unable to find things which help.
