If I may ask, when you did close one account and open another, were you able to keep your username?

No, I kept changing names each time I did it. I think my MFC model names had been CharismaStar...BrownFox...TheBrownFox (a few variations of 'brown fox'...lol).

I think one of my main problems was just getting a bit too cozy with the guys and staying logged in longer than I should've because I enjoyed the conversation so much. That's another thing...when you tell them you're getting ready to go, some of them will try to distract you from leaving by saying "Wait, I wanted to ask you something..." LOL.

Well, I can relate to that, lol. I keep forgetting to update my topic and pushing it more because I do get too cozy! Also, thanks for all the info, much appreciated!

I am the first person to admit that I know crap about MFC. (I still can't figure out if we have the ability to kick anyone of MFC. Can we do that, or can we only ban?) But one of the ways that I stop people from distracting me from leaving is that I always play a 'tradional last song' at the end of my shift. My regs know that once the song is over, then I am gone. End of story. They had their warning through the entire song that I was about to leave so I just log off without another word once it ends. :)

Your room topic can say something like '50 tokens for a flash' and '750 tokens left til topless'.

If you've been on cam and several minutes have gone by without a tip, you can remind them that, unfortunately, you'll have to log off soon since there aren't many tokens coming in at the moment. This way, you're not just logging off abruptly...this way, it warns them that if they want you to stay on cam longer, they're gonna have to start contributing...even if it's only small tips of 5 or 10 tokens.

I use those 10 minute timer emotes. Post this (exactly what I have in between the quotation marks) in your chat... ":tenmin"

If you post a colon and the phrase 'tenmin' right beside it, a cool countdown timer emote will appear, and it will count down from 10 minutes to 0 minutes...this lets guys in your room know that they have 10 minutes to come up with some tokens, otherwise you're logging off for the day.


Thank you so much for this, TheBrownFox! You are my personal MFC heroine. :worship:

So question--- Skype pricing on MFC- I know it should be in tokens according to MFC but it seems a lot of girls either sell their skype name with tokens and/or have open skype but charge off site??? Apparently MFC doesn't really crack down on this?
I know I should price it at what I value myself at etc-- and require a minimum time limit etc-- but I really would like to have an idea of what the average is in general-- more or less than the token amount-- if more/less quite a bit?
Since I have no idea on what is normal when someone says it's too high/too low I am confused on whether it actually is or if I should stand my ground--
I guess I feel if I knew generally what was normal I'd feel more stable in my own pricing..
(I also don't want to go too low and undercut other camgirls-- I tend to keep my goals etc higher than average)

I'm not sure either but I always start with 200 tokens per 5 minutes and very few guys except that but I don't care for skype and never give my skype name until payment is confirmed to reduce harassment on skype also. They may try to talk me down to 300 tokens for 10 minutes but I won't do less than that.

Has this been a terrible month so far for anyone else? It's been so terrible slow and discouraging. Even perving some of the girls on the first row, they look absolutely miserable, some of them barely receiving any tips. Anyone have any idea why it might be so slow this month? I was thinking March Madness, but I could be entirely wrong.

I'm noticing the same thing. I've had to put in longer hours on every site.

Yeah, MFC doesn't have a 'kick' button like Streamate does. MFC has the option to ban a member for 6 hours, ban a member for 60 days, and to put a member on 'ignore'.

I think one night when I was playing old Boyz II Men songs from their Cooleyhighharmony CD, I played 'It's so hard to say goodbye' as my logging-off-for-the-night song. LOL.

Is two hours with no tips/very little tips too long to stay on? Monday-Wed when I was working I was staying one for two hours then logging off. Ive been doing 1-30 Asceinding tokens to get topless My topic has been "Topless 1-30 Next # is 1" and my score is in the high 400s Ive gotten 0 tips in those 3 days and I was on for 2 hours at the same time. Should I only stay on for an hour unless I make it at least halfway. Do you think the guys didnt understand what I was doing and thats why they werent tipping or should I just chalk it up to slowness?

TheBrownFox
03-15-2013, 03:14 PM
Yeah, 2 hours with hardly any tips is too long, in my opinion. If you've been on from like 12 midnight til 1 AM and realize that you've only got 100 tokens total (that's only $5), then it's time to post that :tenmin emote to let the room know you're about to log off in 10 minutes. Especially if you've been reposting your room topic (X tokens til topless) and people still ain't contributing. Since, technically, you're not supposed to be "off work" yet, if you log off early, use that time to cam on a different site(s) instead while you update your C4S store/ELM profile.

I have done my research on here regarding the best webcam for use with mfc and am trying to decide between the logitech pro 9000 and the C920, however i only have a mac to use and a google search brought mixed reviews and alot of mac people who are just trying to make movies with them. Do any of you who use either of these webcams use them on a mac, and if so have you found any problems with sound, etc on mfc? (or do any of you mac users have a suggestion for a good mac compatible webcam?)

I'm watching *edit right now and she just got tipped 420 tokens 3 times in a row twice for a total of 6 times! I'm jealous-I had no luck on MFC but I know some girls do really well there. I think I made the mistake of letting my cam score get way low because I didn't know what I was doing at first and should've done more research before jumping into it.

I had a guy come in my room earlier, drop 10 tokens, then 100 and then 100 again. After all that he requested a private and I told him I only do privates after countdowns but if he'd like a skype show I'd gladly take a short break for that (my theory is that the skype show gaurantees money whereas the pvt he could take me and go and he CLAIMED he'd be at least 30 minutes). He then dropped 500 saying it was a gift and I didn't have to deduct from the countdown and the again requested a pvt and I still told him no unless Skype because I wouldn't leave my countdown without a guarantee. THEN during my show he tips and then requests a private while I'm in the shower doing my show. Again I say no. Should I have accepted or was I in the right? I just didn't want to leave the show that the guys paid for, that seems wrong. Would you girls have done the same?

Yeah it is definitely rude to leave a show you have been counting down to.

You told him the terms. If he didn't get it, that's HIS fault.

So, I've been on MFC for about two weeks now. My first payout is going to be about $1100. My camscore is around 1800 right now but my entire income is coming from like 3 guys and in general I only have about 5 guys in my room at any given time. Did I mess up by not getting more regulars during my "New Girl' time? Is there anything I can do to attract more guys into my room? I work about 20 hours a week on there and the only time I get more than my 3 regulars in my room is when I'm already naked. :(

o i was about to say lol i was gonna be like how the fuck do u pull that off !

KillKeely
03-31-2013, 08:06 PM
the only thing i can say is maybe try and be more engaging. or do a game type thing to get naked instead of a countdown. newcomers may be more willing to spend 20-50 tokens or whatever for the chance to win a small prize (small pic set or whatever) then just to tip for a girl with a small room count. I know a lot of guys on mfc are nervous with smaller rooms because they feel they will be more focused on or called out or whatever.

If it makes you feel any better your camscore is higher then mine, and although I have a decent room size I probably average only 2-3 more tippers then you lol. It's a tough balance because you want more people.. but with more people come more freeloaders and 'regs' who don't tip. but just continuously come in your room -.-". sorry they get on my nerve, I don't let them know they bug me for never ever tipping me because they can help with a slow chatroom by conversation but overall I mean.. at least like 10 tokens! you've been chillin in my room for months and months and you cant spare a dollar >.<

You have to log into your model settings and figure out what your MFC Model ID (or broadcaster ID) is. My Model ID is 5966882. So if I wanted to tweet the link to have people offline tip me, it'd be: http://www.myfreecams.com/mfc2/php/tip.php?broadcaster_id=5966882&request=tip

ok girls, so ive been on mfc for a lil over a week now and need some advice on how to handle a guy who REALLY REALLY likes you? This one guy is constantly emailing me very long letters detailing his life and goals and blah blah blah, trying to start an actual real romance with me i think. He has somehow got it in his head that i will eventually want to date him for real and that he will rescue me from mfc?! I have never needed to be rescued from anything and have never acted like i do so i dont know where he got that idea, lol. He's also super whiny and always gets all butt hurt if im not paying all my attention to him when im camming. He's a good paying customer and although he is very attentive and wordy ive yet to feel any creeper or stalker type vibe from him. I keep all my responses to him short and sweet because i dont want to be accused of leading him on, but i dont think he gets that this is my JOB and i have no plans to run away with any of my customers, lol. So any advice on how to proceed with this tactfully, cuz im getting to the point where i just wanna tell him to stop annoying me and just have fun like everyone else!

I'm interested to hear what the other ladies say, because I'm quite new, too - but I've thusfar held off a very well-meaning but *extremely* talkative (and well-paying) fan by just apologizing for how busy I always am - while *explicitly* making it clear that I'm probably not going to be any less busy in the near future. If I do honestly have a few minutes and I feel like it, I'll chat with him in PM for a few minutes (he's also not the sort of guy I get creeper vibes from, and pretty pleasant to chat with) and then sigh and say I best go do what pays the bills.

Hes pscyotic and clearly has attachment issues and he probably cant get a girl to want to be with him in person because he falls too fast too soon (and in this case unwarranted and irrational) and thats a sign of mental and emotion relationship issues . he sounds like my crazy cousin i used to live with until about 2 months ago that clearly forgot we share blood because i never met b4 i moved in with him to help around the house because hes a bit special and unfocused . he ended up trying to rape me and called the cops because i hit and fought him back and tried to get me arrested for assault and liked me way more then he should have and didnt realized until this incident happened a week before i was supposed to move to the east coast (where i am now) Guys like this just need to be banned and ignored because hes not worth the emotion and mental and energy thats going to be required to have him as a customer . if you feel like you want to attempted to milk him and make it work for you i suggest u ask him for 3-4 times as much tokens as you would ask from a sane normal guy at that site. If you do ignore him put a 60 day ban on him and when the ban goes way after 2 months go into ur settings and manually reban him again - keep him banned.

i have a regular sort of like that, he's my whale. i let him feel special for little things, (i pm him, and much more then the others since i suck at pming lol). And whenever he gets too needy I just tell him "oh... I don't want to lead you on... you're really special to me as a freind but I don't plan on meeting anyone irl from the internet! and.. yah i really enjoy waht we have I just don't want to give you the wrong impression." It works for me, but I'm also a non nude model so i'm not really as intimate with my custys as a lot of you girlies are with yours so the friend pov works. I say do whatever keeps you comfortable, some girls are comfortable leading these guys on and whatever till the well dries up, some girls avoid it..., and some ban them because they arent worth the hassle/stress etc etc. it's really for you to figure out your own boundaries but I agree it is always a toughy when they are a good spender.
