^^ So, without waiting for an answer lol I made the executive decision to delete my account and try again. This time, I'm going to make a specific token system for photos/videos/friend requests. And have a special theme each day where the photos and videos I give out reflect that theme. I'm not going to do anything in public except talk, play music, dance around a little bit - and hand out the photos and videos as people tip for them. Everything else will be kept to private shows. And I'm thinking of doing a raffle all week for a Friday date night on skype or something like that... Do you think this will dramatically help me create a brand and get people interested? I'm getting really excited about it but I don't know if I'm just getting my hopes up that this will help...
did you immediately create a new account after u deleted yours? because im trying to figure out if mfc allows his

Okay I'm gonna threadjack here for some input before I start a thread of my own ^^
I was doing very well of MFC and all, but around the beggining of August I had some personal shit going on where at the same time, I was pulling long hours with a bad hustle due to being so tired. I worked on and off only to see my score go down, but I was still on the first page.
Now, cue today - I had the most embarassingly godawful day camming ever since i started, no comparison. I made NO money whatsoever, not a cent, and had more scammers hitting me up than I thought possible. Scammers are the worse kind of douchebag - at first you think you're about to score a sweet show, then comes the dreaded "I'll pay later/half now?/western union" - do they think we're as stupid as they are? Biulds you up to bring you down.
Anyways, my camscore went down to about 650, which is definitly not enough to ensure first page and very hard to bring up.
Then I started thinking - this month I'll be busy and taking a short vacation, and in october I'll have relatives coming over. So my overall good cam time might be about 2/3 weeks in 60 days. So I started thinking... wouldn't hurt me to be completely away from MFC for those 60 days if I won't have much time to cam anyway, right? I could buy those couple weeks over at SM and wait for the camscore to be reset.
I'm of course, afraid the 60 day rule for reset might have changed .- any new info on this, please?

I can't help you on the 60 day info Sybil, but I just wanted to say I can relate. I've been dealing with my own issues, my mood has been something awful, and the beggars make it even worse. I hope it gets better for us both and that you have a great vacay:)

Aaaah thank you! Really saves me from screwing my score further over a few days in the next couple months. The guys better miss me! Think When I come back I'll go "and this is what happens when compliments don't pay the rent" ;D

I have a couple questions about MFC. I apologize if they are here already BUT I am only on page 8 lol and I would like to know the answer asap. I'm working my way through this thread!
1. Is it really allowed to start up a new account? I was on MFC for a week but my camscore was terrible so I want to try again, now that I kinda know how to work it.
2. How long do you stay as a "new girl"?
3. I just got approved today. Does my new girl banner start today or the first day I log on? I was going to start Friday but if I get the new girl banner today, I don't want to waste it, so I might log on tonight, you know?
Thanks in advance!! :)

The new girl banner will count from the time you log on, and it lasts a certain amount of hours, but I forgot how many, I am sure someone knows though.

I'd still love to know the amount of hours but that cleared up a lot of my questions :) thank you!!

OMG I read through the entire thread...I feel pretty damn proud of myself!! (My day job is pretty slow today...lol)
This thread has definitely inspired me to buck up and get my ass on MFC...I've been pretty intimidated by the site because the first time I tried it, my cam score tanked so fast it was scary...but I feel like I have got the hang of this whole camming thing - at least to the point that I can maintain a decent score while I build up a client base.
One question - I am 99% sure that it has been over 60 days since I last logged on (closer to 100, but I didn't write it down anywhere, so I can't be totally sure). If I log in to work on my profile and check how long it's been, it won't count towards the 60 days, right? I.e., if its been 59 days, and I log in not on cam, but to change profile info, I won't have to wait another 60 days to get the "shes back" banner and the reset on the cam score?
Thanks

I have a question....
In the last 60 days I have made 1353 tokens in 3 hours (I haven't really been around) which averages out to 451 tokens an hour, which is slightly above $20 an hour after MFC's and Dailypay's cut. I'm going to go ahead and say that that's not bad considering all I was doing was trying to figure out the HD settings. They were mostly high tips which were rated and a couple of privates, which were rated.
But my question is: Why at $45 an hour before the studio cuts is my camscore at 463. I don't understand that. No, it's not $100 an hour but I know for a fact there are other girls who spend hours on end on there who make less and the scores climb while mine hasn't moved in over a month. I know how the camscore is calculated and that means that it should at least be a few hundred more than it is :(

Because the cam score is also calculated based on the tips that other girls got who were also online at the same time as you. There's no way for you to know what each girl got tipped, or even just one girl because they could have been tipped in private or received a huge offline tip or something.

This just upsets me. I've been trying to seek help for a long time about this. All I get is "just work more" I worked an hour, made about $75 and my score dropped almost 300 points and hasn't moved since. I've logged in since then and if I stay logged in for more than 5 minutes it drops roughly 30-100 points. I would like to leave it alone for now and not log in for the 60 days, but unless I can find another place where I can get paid daily (besides daily pay) then I don't know what to do since that's what I need :(

MFC camscore so schizo. My cam score jumped from 780 to 1400 in one day and all I made was $50. I just don't get it...
Tsani
10-18-2011, 10:17 PM
I finally decided to give MFC another chance so I've asked support to have my account re-activated but asked if I can pretty please use a different username since I decided not to use Tsani anymore. Fingers crossed that I can and that my cam score won't suffer and that I can actually make some money on there armed with the knowledge I've gotten here!
Tsani
10-18-2011, 10:51 PM
Well, they re-activated my account and told me I could change my username from my login, which I did.... but my cam score is like 500 something *FACEPALMS*

I block PMs except from friends, so people have to talk to me in the chat, which let's everyone see what a great personality I have!.
How do you block pms? They are so annoying!!! Not that I mind chatting with people, but I want to chat with guys who are going to tip!!
Great game ideas, btw! Thank you

It's one of the settings from your model admin page; you can set it to only premiums, only friends, or everyone ( I think )

"Several hundred people." Just goes to show that traffic (i.e. camscore) doesn't necessarily mean squat on MFC. This is my fifth week there. At first, it was a train wreck: no hustle, not knowing what the fuck I was doing, etc.
Yet today I made a little over a hundred dollars in a few hours by flirting and the occasional boob flash. I make this much regularly now, and while that may not seem like a lot.......
My cam score is under 500, and I never have more than twelve people in my room at any given time.
I've kept working at MFC steadily, sticking to my meager schedule, and day-by-day, building up those custies. Some wise person here said that MFC is a marathon, not a sprint. So absolutely true!
It can take time for the people who will appreciate you to find you in all the masses, but once they do, it can be quite lucrative, but ONLY if you have the patience.

Usually Wednesday's are horrible for me, but yesterday kicked ass. Ladies do not stay on if your not being tipped even if your trying to stick to a schedule. All that will do is bring doooowwnn your score. When your score is below 1000 generally all you will get it scammers. Don't be discouraged when times get tough, just stick with it.
Tsani

I'm coming back to MFC after a very long absence and with a strict "no freebies in public chat" rule. I'll do flashes for tips but I'm not gonna be doing shows for tips in free chat anymore. My worry is that people are gonna realize that then go "fuck this, I'll go to another room where someone's doing a show in free chat". Thoughts?
LeahBabii
10-20-2011, 05:02 PM
Tsani, I think that's great i never do anything for free in my chat since the beginning so its well known in my room. As for no public shows you can do perfectly well i hardly to public shows, i mostly do naked countdowns then get taken to privates/groups for the rest of my time. I think you will do perfectly fine, just stick with it.

This is exactly right. My camscore is pretty good and I tend to have a lot of people in my room & most nights I can't even finish a countdown. You can have 1000+ people in your room, but if they aren't giving up any tokens it's pointless.
Tsani I think you'll be fine not doing anything in public. It might work in your benefit since guys will want to take you prvt/grp to see more. Just tease tease tease! If you just sit there & don't do anything it'll be a bit hard to get prvts/grp.

I have two Dummy McNoob questions...
When you're in chat and it shows a list of "PM viewers", what does that mean exactly? What are they viewing?
And also, where do I go to find out who rated me and how many stars?
FiendishGyrator
10-20-2011, 06:58 PM
Is there an invitation that you click when someone wants to take you private?
I didn't see anything the two nights I was on MFC. I need to play around some more.
Tsani
10-20-2011, 07:41 PM
From what I understand, people can view your room without actually being in your room. They come up as PM viewers, so they're in your PM box, viewing what you're doing in your room from there, but they can't see what you and others in the room are typing. I think people do that so that they can be in another girl's room while watching you and other girls.
I'm not sure where to find out who rated you, but maybe it's on your profile?

Okay, after reading all of this thread (and most of the other MFC threads) I am going to post something. ;)
I got approved for MFC last night, and I am going to start camming on Sunday or Monday night. I am going non-nude, and don't plan to do anything too crazy in privates. Only true privates will get toys.
I have a love for costumes/corsets/stockings, etc. I don't see too many girls on MFC that have that sort of "look" in their rooms (especially in regards to corsets). I also love burlesque dancing. I find it so pin-up and sexy. ;D Do you think that would work well on there? I would love to do burlesque shows in public chat since I think that could be a good niche for me. I am doing as much research about the "hustle" of that site as I can.
And to introduce myself just a little - I am 23 and a wife and mother to a wonderful little 9 month old joy of a boy. I am going to do this at night after he and my husband go to bed (hubby has a job that makes him get up really early). My hubby is super excited that I am doing this...he has been wanting me to for several years now. ::)

@FiendishGyrator, When you are invited to a private it will make a token noise but will pop up with a time limited to accept or deny it.
@Tsani you can't see who rated/ admired you, but when you do privates they can rate you which you will be able to see when you check your tokens on the site.
@ElizabethEverdeen, I think you can do great but like always expect to have tough times starting out. Every new person needs to build up their fanbase, that's the hardest part i think. Teasing definitely is one of my niches and lets just say it works magical wonders. lol Don't research too much just hop into it and have fun. Everyone is different so no matter how much you watch other models it won't benefit you much. Have a blast!!!!
ElizabethEverdeen
10-21-2011, 09:52 AM
Thanks Leah for replying. :) I am hoping my "research" doesn't get in my way...I am just one of those people, I like to feel prepared. Though I imagine you can never really be prepared for camming. lol
The only model I really watch is Posie...she is my official cam crush. Though I know that her personality and mine are not the same, and I could not play the same game she does. I just find the conversations in her room funny, and I like that she is non-nude as well.

Random question...I was wondering, do most guys on MFC know how much we make off of their tokens. For instance, do they know 20 tokens is only a $1 for us? I see alot of tipping for that amount or less, and then wanting something like a flash or toys...for like $.50...WTF? Do they think 20 tokens is like $20 for us?

I'm pretty sure they know. Maybe they don't know that it is .05 per token, but when they purchase tokens it'll say 200 tokens for $20 @ .10 a token. Some girls would get fully naked for that amount on page 2-3. The guys who want a lot for a little are just trying to be cheap & hoping you'll give in.

MFC has been DEAD for me this week. Idk what it is, but I always banked on that site and now it's just getting like pulling teeth more and more often, to the point where now it's practically unbearable. Even my traffic has dropped 50-75%, and my camscore and ranking is higher than ever!
I've been having better luck on SM 0_o

10-21-2011, 10:42 PM
MFC hasn't been very great lately. Most times that I'm on I can pull at least $60 a shift even with my low camscore. This week it's been hard for me to break $20. On top of that, I have to leave DP because of the Alertpay issues and set up a new account which may or may not be a good thing. A new camscore is cool and everything, but getting paid daily was the part I liked the most. Makes we wonder if I should even bother with MFC anymore , but I need as much $$ as I can get these days.

10-21-2011, 11:28 PM
It was so bad this whole month, so I took it off. I didn't want to kill my camscore anymore than I did, but my camscore still fell! It also rose up a little bit which was weird, but then it dropped again :(
All this happened while I wasn't even online! So I don't even know what I should do anymore...
My fans are probably gone. But, I'm still gonna go for it! Next month I'll be really motivated and excited! Actually, I'm excited just thinking about it. I hope I can get it up by 300 points next month. It's gonna be difficult. :(

I agree MFC has taken a massive down slide.:O Typically things get better as fall approaches but it seems really dead on there. What I have noticed is that models are lowering countdowns, and doing alot more for less. I even heard this from the members that it's pretty slow. Some guy said it's like all guys are broke at the same time. I used to have $500-$1200 weekends. Now I'm lucky to pull out $100-$200 and that's after crazy hours that have affected my camscore. Ohh and I'm not the free chat masturbation , or nudity in free chat type either.I've set my sites on indy,AW, ND.
I'm thinking approaching holidays is making people save up all they can. Even though the economy has been slightly better for some, others are still struggling. Plus guys sometimes pm each other to tip or not tip. Someone in my room actually told me that a guy ( basic for the last 3 years) goes into models's rooms and pms guys not to tip. To wait because she'll eventually take it off for much less. As typical the model gets tired of waiting and does everything for half the tokens.
Try to keep the losers out of your room that have been barking orders. If they get back in they will try and brainwash the mindless masses. For the guys that love your shows, they'll give you a heads up.

I'm on the MFC daily pay service, and I get paid via Payoneer.
Also, the last time I tried to close a model account on MFC to open a new one, they caught on to what I was doing and didn't allow it. They said that if I want to continue working on there, I'd have to use the old model account, meaning I'd have to just deal with the current cam score. But I have read from a model or two on here that they've been able to somehow manage to start over (lucky them!). In the end, cam scores are always gonna be a pain in the ass, and I've given up on the idea of "starting fresh with a new score." I'll just continue working hard and - despite the sucky score - let the guys find out for themselves that I'm "worthy" of their tokens. :P
Good luck with whatever you decide to do! :)

Yes, I've just started noticing Posie too, and she's awesome! She's a good dancer/teaser. 8) Yesterday I noticed that when she was dancing, she actually did get topless.
I went in her room a few times recently, and each time she's had between 600+ - 800+ people in her room. WOW!!!

I saw her last night, noticed the 800 in her room too. She had about 450 guests, another couple hundred registered users, the rest prems. Idk about how many PM viewers she had bc it never tells us, though Im sure a lot.
ElizabethEverdeen
10-25-2011, 09:56 AM
I wonder how long she has been on the site. Does it tell you on the profile and i am missing it? She has a huge fan base. Some guys even have screen names based on her name.
chibii
10-25-2011, 10:27 AM
I think it says it at the top left of the profiles. Or maybe thats last login/last profile update? Ive had a couple people make names for me lol I knew who they were though, regulars...my favorite ones! Not recently though, waahh :(
On another note, Ive been watching rooms A LOT recently. I WONT give up on mfc damn it! lol. I swear even 6 months ago it wasnt like this... Where first page has low camscore models and most rooms have less than 10 prems. Am I mistaken? I remember watching a lot of rooms when I first started and being way more impressed with the traffic.
I watched a room last night, though cant remember the models name. She wore a long brown wig, pretty sure she had contacts and a full sleeve tat if anyone knows her. She kept saying "what is going on tonight!? I have more than 10 premiums in my room! Seriously, wow!" She had like 50-60 premiums I think. One time I had 150 in my room doing nothing different than I usually do... I was at a loss of what to do with all that attention, it seems like we just get lucky sometimes :/

If you read the Wiki documents it says there that when you pay for a private, you can go back and view it again and again. You are not "supposed" to sell it, move it from the site, etc. I don't think the voyeurs or groups can do that. I am not totally comfortable with it, but I think it does add an extra selling point to privates there...:-\

DD I am sorry I never post here and I have to make this my first one, but I am in completeee shock
I have always avoided MFC like teh plague and I can only assume here, but did MFC actually think that their customers will spend money in the longrun?
Only considering that there is enough free chat nudity to keep all of the viewers on that site and thensome happy for a while
considering that they are recording models for custys later use?
considering girls are practically giving content away for a few tokens?
You don't say MFC, you dont say. I would have never thought that giving so much away for free and not enforcing the rules of your own site would never have such a negative effect on your site lol.
Sorry for the sarchasm ladies, but I thought I heard it all about mfc until now.
DD
Now for a real diary entry. I am sorry I do not write often. I rather enjoy reading other's diaries but I do not really care to put too much out there myself. Sits in the corner reading another secret diary entry.
But it is not because I am a bitch, oh diary. It is becasue I do not have much of a LIFE to write about. I would nto consider my "real life" to have anything to do with camming, or work..so I cannot write about content making, my day, etc. I want to give you the real deal diary and that is:
I roll up a bit fat ...erm I mean medicate, work, medicate, eat, medicate, watch tv, medicate and go to bed. The most exciting thing that occurs in my day is discovering what recordings I have forgotten on my DVR. Today that was beavis and butthead. I cannot believe they are back. Brings back good ol memories.
Then the weekend comes along, the adventure begins And I do all of the above but disclude work and more then likely it is occuring at a beach, lake, or another random park like location.
Well, there is my life in a nutshell. I know I do not have much of one but I like it that way.
Till next time..............
