The emails from Oct 1 til today, I don't know. I'm always alert to any small signs.
EKS is kind of in the "too big to fail" category, so I hope everything is okay and I'm glad that you like her content. Her studio always stood out to me for having great male talent to go along with the women.
BTW, I totally don't mind content creators asking for donations. I see it all the time on YouTube, but... mostly from small content creators. Something, I don't consider EKS to be.
Yes, she started a campaing making an approach to those who support her content, then 10 days ago of that message we recived that "charity message" asking for a donation for expand her bussiness.
Since 2 months ago i noticed a change, mainly in her main crew, hiring interesting and more experienced guys as Dylan, Aj Fresh Tony B and Jack23 that offers a better performance.
Also she is recruiting too more experienced and established girls than she used to do, i think they could have a higher cost.
You're are right if we think that EKS is one of the main studios of the site but who know, maybe is only a formal way to recaudate money for future investments.

There may just be so many people seeking to pitch their ideas or have a chat with studios that in the end offering that option for money may be the most rational and sensible thing to do to decide who gets to have that privilege and not to mention be compensated for the time spent listening to these ideas. Are there any other supposed warning signs that I may be missing?
Good point, I just saw the messages today and didn't get to investigate further. From the image that I saw, it looked like maybe a Russian version of BuyMeCoffee, but for adult content creators.
But yeah, your observation does make me feel a little bit at ease. When I get time, I will check out that site and donate something. I hope the extra stream of income for her does pan out to be fruitful.
I see the point of have a private chat for the customers for communicate with them, but here is my "complain" that i expressed in another thread.
Here there are a private chat area on allows the customers who support their work make contact.
If they have that telegram chat that cost money to be inside, doesn't counts support her works here to chat with the studio, you could pay money for be inside and nothing more else.
That is why i'm complaining, here we spend more money in TKT to get her scenes or the scenes of other studio, you don't need to buy more than 3 to reach the quantity asked to be in that chat but the chat of PB is just an advertising theses days.
As far as i know, they can establish the parameters to allow the chat with them, don't let chat people who only got 2 scenes.. let the chat for those who buy 7-10 scenes per month or have a % of your studio. Basically allow the chat for loyal customers and not for those who buy 2 scenes.
