Real users who are advertising for their OF are hugely preferred over the blatantly obvious fake accounts. Verification should be required for all posters.
I definitely take note of posters who have dozens of posts, but don’t reply or comment. It’s pretty common to see accounts with 0 comments and I’m less likely to engage with their content.
Concerning verification: Agencies can just ask the models to take a verification shot and the fake/catfish posters will just post in a different community in the instance. Requiring full verification is such a large barrier to entry for new non-commercial posters that they would probably just not post instead. That’s not even mentioning the administrative burden on the mods. The structure of this place doesn’t lend itself well to that requirement in my opinion.
