  Due to that, you might want a separate account if you subscribe to the Erotica network and want to subscribe to other networks. This will just ensure that people who don't want to see Erotica posts won't see them.
  We do ask that you always choose the privacy setting when posting anything "adult" in nature so that we can help keep it showing in the feed only to those that subscribe. :)  less
