Flair Guide for r/HEM_NSFW

Flairs help keep the subreddit organized, improve readability, and allow members to quickly identify the type of content and the experience level or role of the person posting. Using flairs correctly makes the community easier to navigate for everyone, especially newcomers.

This guide explains post flairs, user flairs, and provider flairs, including when and how to use each one.

All users must select the correct post flair before submitting a post. Posts without an appropriate flair may be removed or reclassified by moderators. User flairs are optional but encouraged. Provider flairs require moderator approval and verification.

Each flair color signals a broad category of content. This system helps members filter and find posts that match their interests or needs.

• 🔵 Blue – Session experiences and personal reflections (no media)
• 🟡 Yellow – Advice, questions, and open discussion
• 🟣 Purple – Contest entries
• ⚫ Black – Ask Me Anything (AMA) threads
• 🟠 Orange – Official moderator or community posts
• 🔴 Red – Rule-sensitive content (automatically removed)

Understanding these colors helps the entire community stay organized and respectful.

Use these flairs when sharing your own personal session experiences or reflections without any photos or videos.

• Session – A general recap of a visit or experience
• First Time Session – Your first visit or early experiences in the hobby
• Massage Only Session – A therapeutic or non-erotic massage visit
• Best Session – A standout, memorable, or particularly positive experience

Moderators may change an incorrect Session flair to Media if images or video are present.

Use these when asking questions, offering advice, or starting respectful conversations without media.

• Advice / Question – Seeking recommendations, clarification, or help from the community
• Tips and Insights – Sharing useful advice, etiquette suggestions, or lessons learned
• General Discussion – Open-ended conversation or community observations

These flairs keep discussion threads easy to find and participate in.

• Contest Entry – Official entry for any r/HEM_NSFW contest

Only use this flair for verified contest submissions. Contest details and rules are posted separately with the appropriate moderator flair.

AMA (Ask Me Anything) threads allow members to ask questions of a specific person or group. All AMA threads must be pre-approved by moderators.

• AMA (Pending Approval) – Post submitted and waiting for moderator review
• ✅ AMA: Mod Approved – Official AMA thread that has been reviewed and approved by the mod team

Do not post an AMA without prior approval. Unauthorized AMA posts may be removed.

These flairs are used for official subreddit posts and structured community threads. They are typically assigned or posted by moderators.

• Weekly Post – Rotating prompts or themed discussion threads
• MOD Post – Official announcements from the moderation team
• Announcement – Important subreddit-wide news or updates
• Poll – Official polls run by moderators
• Contest – Contest rules, details, results, or updates
• WIKI – Posts connected to wiki pages or educational resources
• How-To Guide – Verified tutorials or examples

These flairs signal authoritative or community-organized content.

These flairs are used internally for posts that violate subreddit rules. They are automatically removed or hidden from public view.

• Location Request
• rubmaps
• STD

Posts receiving these flairs are removed to maintain compliance with subreddit rules and Reddit's content policies. Repeated violations can result in posting restrictions or bans.

User flairs appear next to your username and show your experience level or role in the community. They are optional but helpful because they give others context about your background when you post or comment.

You can set or change your user flair at any time through the subreddit sidebar or user settings.

Choose the flair that best reflects your current level of experience. Update it as you gain more time in the hobby.

Provider flairs are reserved for verified or known providers who participate respectfully in the community. These flairs must be applied by moderators after a private verification process.

Verification is handled confidentially and is never shared publicly.

To request a provider flair, send a private message to the mod team. All requests are treated with confidentiality.

• Always select the correct post flair before submitting your post. Posts without proper flairs may be removed or re-flared by moderators.
• If you are unsure which flair to use, choose General Discussion or Advice / Question and moderators can adjust if needed.
• Moderator-assigned flairs (Orange category and provider flairs) should not be self-applied.
• Repeated or intentional misuse of flairs may result in temporary or permanent posting restrictions.
• Flairs improve searchability, help newcomers find relevant content, and support a well-organized community.
• User flairs can (and should) be updated as your experience level changes over time.

Following these practices keeps the subreddit readable and respectful for all members.
