Q: I’m interested in writing an adult story, is this acceptable to publish?

A: Yes! OC Fancy welcomes stories for all age groups and genres. Erotica is acceptable, however blatant human pornographic images are strictly forbidden and will result in a permanent ban for any users posting or reposting the media. Digital and hand drawn character images with sexual connotations may be posted so long as they do not feature under age characters.

Users interested in posting erotic stories or media are requested to add a “NSFW” (not safe for work) label to their posts. OCF also allows user to mark their posts as “sensitive”, which will blur the post until the viewing user agrees to see the potentially sensitive content. This feature should be utilized for this type of content and may be added to user posts by our site admin if necessary.

Q: What if my stories have different chapters?

A: If you want your fans to easily keep track of different chapters in your story, add a link at the bottom to take them to your next post. Users can also view all stories unique to you by clicking on the name you choose to have publicly displayed. This will take them to your profile.

Q: Can I message other users to ask about their stories?

A: Yes! Our platform utilizes reliable third-party software to allow users to chat and communicate within our community. On top of the ability to follow community users and gather followers of your own, members can friend other artists and writers. Note that users can only chat among friends.

Q: What are Groups?

A: Groups are a great way to find friends and meet new people that share your passion. If you are part of a group, you can collaborate on stories together, work on group stories, or just learn more about the world of character creation.
