Le forum sur Discord permet aux membres de créer des fils de discussion (threads) comme ici. Et donc de poster des liens de téléchargement pour récupérer des skins et des scènes. Sur Discord, on peut aussi poster des images comme ici et les télécharger pour les récupérer sur son PC.
En résumé, les fondamentaux ne changent pas.

Merci pour cette réponse @stefnev1
Cela est déjà un point positif pour récupérer ces skins, scènes et vos fonds d'écran également 😊
Je ne suis pas un créateur de fils de discussion, mais je suis intéressé par certains d'entre eux. Pour les infos qu'ils contiennent, les améliorations envisagées et quelques autres choses.
Le seul problème est la langue et je n'ai pas encore vu la possibilité de traduction de la page entière (comme cela est possible ici)
Mais cela sera peut-être possible si j'installe cette appli Discord?
Vous semblez déjà installé sur ce site avec succès 👍
Si vous avez d'autres infos? Merci. Et peut-être rdv là-bas 😈😀

@Philours
Pour le moment je vais sur Discord uniquement avec mon navigateur internet (Firefox), je ne connais donc pas l'application.
A propos des threads sur Discord, une grosse différence par rapport au forum classique ici, c'est qu'ils ont une durée de visibilité limitée dans le temps (de quelques heures à 1 jour en règle générale), ce temps étant fixé par le créateur du thread. Si rien ne se passe sur le thread durant le temps imparti, celui-ci est archivé automatiquement par Discord. Mais il peut être "réveillé" en le rouvrant et en ajoutant un post dedans. Le statut "archivé" fait qu'il disparaît de la liste des threads actifs.

@Philours as you asked me I confirm yes if everyone here sharing their work goes to Discord then as @stefnev1 says it is still possible to download that work. The translation problem I think is harder to fix, other than what we do now and copy one language into an online tool. Sometimes when I find I am on a non-English page a pop-up appears offering to translate it, but do not know if that works on sites like Discord? 😕

Suspending image posting would stop members like me having nude replacement cards made by members like @rebailne and @Doodpart2

You and others will always be able to post them on Discord.

Just a question:

if, let's say:

• the Forum would be not visible from GUI anymore;
• the Forum would be also not visible from the current iStripper site and would get another URL such as istripperforum.com or whatsoever;

in such a case, would the Forum be allowed to stay as it has been until now (with pictures and so)? Thanks

@HansSachs
What I understand : this forum will remain but without the ability to post images (accordingly to the new rules from MasterCard). To do that, we will have to go on the Discord server. Some functionalities are linked between the software and iStripper server for the shows and the users profile, this link doesn't exist on Discord.

Cannot find it now, but think it has been asked if posting links to other websites or places like youtube will still be allowed? I guess it will be as Totem cannot be responsible for the content on other sites?
For example if someone who does not want to use Discord, they can still recommend a model and link to a datebase like thenude.com for reference. Hope so anyway.

By the way, if this forum remains (without pictures and other things), Totem must rewrite the terms&conditions to use it.
The moderators team has to know what is allowed and what it isn't to moderate accurately.

@stefnev1 👍

@stefnev1
I found this link had the steps on how to opt-in to NSFW for iOS, it works after that. 👍
https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005292701
How to opt in for iOS:
Sign in to Discord on desktop and navigate to your User Settings. You can find your User Settings by clicking the gear icon in the bottom left corner of the app.
In the User Settings menu, click on Privacy & Safety.
Find “Allow access to NSFW content on iOS” and click the toggle. This will let you view NSFW servers you are already a member of from your iOS device.

Great, have fun on the iStripper Discord 😎

plan to suspend image posting in the forum by mid August if we don't find another solution

Is that mid August this year or next? Has the plan changed?
I see images still being posted here - I like posting images myself, but have stopped for now.
Perhaps I should just start up again - much prefer here than on Discord.

@wsw, non, le plan n'a pas changé. Continuez à créez d'autres fils sur discord, c'est bien! 😆😆😆
Et Gloria n'est plus votre préférée? Quelle tristesse 😢 Restez fidèle, mon ami 😉

@wsw, no the plan hasn't changed. Keep creating more threads on discord, that's good! 😆😆😆
And Gloria is no longer your favorite? How sad 😢 Stay true, my friend 😉

@Philours yes I will create more threads, or perhaps more accurately continue those I started here over on Discord 👍. I was just wondering about the timing of the suspension, if it is going ahead, permanent or temporary? Unless I've missed a post no Totem Team member has added any further details since this thread started. The "add image" option is still there for all to use.

And Gloria - yes I had a mental wobble over the weekend I guess. She has been my favourite from well before I joined iStripper. However unlikely to return here, so an iStripper specific model is perhaps what I mean and I am thinking of Ava 😍.

Maybe I’ve misunderstood something, but media reports yesterday seem to have completely overturned the rationale for the Discord exercise.

In case you missed it, a week ago OnlyFans announced its exit from the porn sector, citing the new Mastercard rules. The content creators – strippers, furiously argued that their source of income was being removed and they were being ***** to turn to prostitution. Mastercard blamed the banks – two in particular, who were refusing to process OnlyFans’ payments. The banks saw thousands of angry women taking aim and reversed their policies. Mastercard followed suit and yesterday OnlyFans announced that it would stay in porn.

Therefore, unless the report is wrong, the XBiz advisory is now out of date. There is no reason to ban picture uploads to the Forum. Here’s the link:
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/aug/25/onlyfans-scraps-plans-to-ban-sexually-explicit-material

Having said that, I quite like having pic in one place and verbal posts in another.

I was just wondering about the timing of the suspension, if it is going ahead, permanent or temporary? Unless I've missed a post no Totem Team member has added any further details since this thread started.

I am still wondering 😕

Still unclear and still waiting. 😕

I have tried Discord, but I find it does not fit so well for me, and of course it is missing all the lovely history of this forum.
My hope is we can continue here, at least using iStripper photos if not from other sites or unknown sources.
Been fun today - that is what they tell us to have using iStripper. Maybe more later - time to go into the real world tonight.

I also agree that disabling customers from using Mastercard entirely would be a bad idea. It would ***** loyal customers who have been using Mastercard to purchase from Totem for possiblly years. There are also a lot of customers who would not be willing to change banks or open a card with a new bank just for use with iStripper since it would be a pretty involving process. There are also those customers that this may not even be an option for for one reason or another, including, but not limited to location, living, personal, or financial constraints of one kind or another. Another problem is that other card companies are VERY likely to follow.


I wonder though, if it might be possible for them to get around this by having their users pay through ePoch or Paypal? Thus payments would go to ePoch or Paypal and not to Totem directly I suppose? Then again, ePoch or Paypal may eventually have to follow the same rules?

Discord is a good option but does have some constraints. An example is that certain topics would have to be pinned, such as user created content such as custom fullscreens. The other problem with Discord, is that users may need to create a second account for adult content. I'm not sure if it is possible for anyone on your friends list to currently see what channels you are using but it could become a thing in the future, so I would also advise using a second account for this just in case.

I was also wondering about having the forums hosted on an official fan forum that isn't related or run directly by Totem, but rather by the community as a free forum? Maybe the iStripper Workshop could host it? There are a lot of pretty official fan forums for various video games out there, and they are quite often more popular than the forums on the official page/website. Of course some kind of agreement should probably be made to prevent people from posting anything illegal or pirating content, esp. iStripper content, but I'm sure something could be worked out.


The downside though, is that either way, we are probably losing use of some of the forums that people earned by purchasing cards. That being said, I very rarely even post in those forums since they are cut off from most of the community anyway.


Maybe a community tab could be added to iStripper or quick access to fan created forums/Discord channels? A disclaimer could be added to this tab, that expresses that these are not a part of or run by Totem.

Personally I am not a fan of the Discord solution and I am still not sure I will ever join it.
I think best solution could be simply hosting the iStripper forum in a separate forum site, but, if possible, still owned and ruled by Totem, a site which would not make any sort of sales - so no billing company would be able to make requests to it.

I don't have a problem with Discord, but I haven't found the discussions on there to be compelling enough to attract me to check it frequently.

I guess whatever happens the discussions can continue on here, I think many on Discord are too busy playing their online games. Apparently iStripper server now has over 2000 members, but only 112 have ever posted a single message. I've been using both, so having double the fun - I'll probably get in trouble for having too much fun. 😀
Perhaps they will send a girl round with a whip, thigh high boots and well you know. 😆

@wrightsayswow 😆👍

Maybe we need more of the regular crew over there. I dunno who all went. 😕 😀

I'm still here! And was testing that new BDSM tag which seems to work and I seem to have 29 such shows, including Chems here in her 2008 show called Demonia. I think she is a little miffed that we kept her waiting so long. 😆
