I got back on and didn't have a terrible night, but it was clear a lot of models and members gave up and went elsewhere. :/
Actually had a bizarrely good night on Chaturbate, though. ($43, which for me on CB is mega-money since I basically split and ignore it)

After poking around on the internet, I found recordings of me every time I've broadcasted on MFC. Even the boring parts where I wasn't doing much. I've only just restarted on the site and have been live 4 times, so is this normal? Should I be flattered or offended?

It's normal. There are 45 minute videos of me out there making random conversation, haha.

I'm seeing a few girls advertise their Clips4Sale site on their MFC profile, is that allowed? I don't want to get in trouble but that would be great for me if I could share it!

They prefer if you taje payment for things through them of course, but you can link to anywhere you like. I love MFC for that!
Regarding the capping and recording it is tied in apparently with how mfc have things set up for mobile feeds, this is how people are able to exploit tge system for auto recording. You can change your options in the model console to not give support for mobile viewers. This seems to have reduced the auto recording for some models. I only changed it myself the other day so it's early to tell yet but my shows since then have not shown up anywhere x

I just signed up for MFC for the first time (I'm on SM currently but want to try both). I can't make heads or tails of profile customization... can anyone offer some tips on how to make it look cute? I see a lot of models will have tip menus and other features in their profiles. Is the common practice to embed an image?
So lost!:O

Did anyone have a problem with this site last night? I got up and started watching, then I think it froze up my computer. The sound being screwed up was bad enough that I didn't think to check and just restarted. Then when I was reopening things I got this crazy FBI scam page that came up instead of MFC. So I closed it and didn't bother popping back in again. I ran a basic scan and it didn't find anything and ran a boot-time scan after I went to bed and things seem to be fine, so I'm thinking maybe it was their site?

Have any of you MFC ladies had luck with other similar sites (other than CB)? Traffic on MFC has taken a nosedive this year. It's getting pretty worrisome. I've always made enough through MFC and clip sales but now I'm wondering if that's sustainable. Just curious if any other freechat sites are hot right now?

It's not just mfc its just all sites are just enjoying our hard-earned money and barely putting any back into finding great traffic. There are men out there looking for something like what we do but never discovered it yet. There's where some of our % to them should have went. :(

If you're on Twitter, I think it's a good idea to include your Twitter info in your MFC room topic. Also, if you're currently running a raffle or any sort of contest, put that info in your room topic as well. Some examples:
X tokens for a video (or an 'X tokens for TWO videos' deal, if you want)
X tokens for a 10-minute custom video
X tokens for a picture set
X tokens to dance to a song
X tokens for a song request
X tokens for hard spanks on your ass (some use a paddle...OUCH!)
Room topic ideas:
"X tokens left 'til topless. Once that's done, X tokens 'til panties off."
"Follow me on Twitter @ ______."
"Custom video (or Skype show) raffle: X tokens per entry."

yeah, it went down for me yesterday at around 2:30pm PST right when a guy tipped 200 tokens to take me true private. Thank goodness he wasn't upset. He kept offline tipping me to try
and get me back. But I couldn't even get on to see that until last night.

Can you guys help me out on the nature of this cam site? I'd wish to work it again, but it seems the general success of a cam girl is dictated by how many videos she produces, offline content, snapchat, physical items of hers, ect. I wish to be successful soley on my performance in chat, look, personality, privates, etc, not by outside means. Is this possible? I just don't want to sell videos/pictures/panties etc. Tokens given for these things seem to be the only income for the girl and raises her score by a bit without her needing to do anything on camera. Is this the surefire way for success? The only way for top girls?

Hello eveyone! So I just did my 1st show yesterday, just to test everything and see how the system works, nothing too serious, but I did seem to notice that people just asked me to do stuff for free that was already on my tip menu. Do you guys have like a go to "that's on the tip menu, buddy." I tried putting "check profile" in my room topic, but they just seemed to ignore it. I don't want to come off as "I'm just here for the tokens and tips" even though I obviously am lol. I kind of want to create that atmosphere of "we're all friends (even though were not), and you just want to help me out cuz that's what friends do...also you want to see my tits"
I'm just new, and I think a lot of those guys are trying to take advantage of that. Anyway to tell them to pay me or fuck off, but like...politely I guess? lol
Did MFC just go down for anyone else or is it just me?

It's back up!
...Minkaa, you might want to be more cautious about giving out your location, if you're legit. No one's going to meet up with a strange lady they don't know, anyway, maybe poke around the forum a bit, see about getting verified.

Well.....this looks like another thread I am reviving. How is traffic on iFriends? You know I started out on Streamate and I HATE it! I'm so sad too because I thought I would love it but I HATE talking to freeloaders fr 8-10 hours a day and only making $40! Fucking ridiculous, I'm ready to climb through my computer and wallet rape those bastards! Anyway, I thought I'd try a new platform instead of running myself ragged on Streamate (and they keep SO MUCH of your money!) Can anybody tell me what kind of traffic a newbie like me can be expected to have? I have a twitter account...but I'm not sure how many customers that will bring in. I've been camming for almost a full week now and I've only made about $160. *cries* I LOVE CAMMING. I love the good nights when the custies come in and we chat, I love the flexibility, but if I want to KEEP camming I have got to start bringing in some real money!

They send out a 1099 I get mine about mid Feb but I once emailed them and they uploaded it to my account somehow or something, but I got it electronically then it came in the mail a few days later. They sent the email or whatever in about a day.

Hello ladies, I usually go on SM but have been trying MFC lately. It seems to be going OK. But I have just read up on the rules so now I am paranoid lol...
NO Men on camera for any reason. Men should not even be in the same room.
This is cool, but my husband quite often sits in the front room with me whilst I am camming watching a film on his laptop with his headphones. Sometimes he might cough or call me (forgetting I have audio on)..We don't have full on convos. But a couple of custies have asked me who was coughing in the background before..I have always said its my Gay Flat Mate (Only so they dont start with oh can he join in etc)..
Now I am paranoid I am going to get in trouble (already had a warning as I put lactating in my profile - yes I should have read the rules 3x over before I did it lol)...
Am I going to get in trouble :-(
Thanks VK xxxx

If you split CB with another token site like MFC and you have clothes off goals on both sites, but say you only end up meeting goal on one of the sites, how do you handle the performance on the second site? Seems it wouldn't be fair to let those who did not contribute to watch your mini show or whatever you're planning to do. Do you log out from one site at that point? I know you can do ticket shows on CB or force private on BC, but on MFC you can only go away which is pointless since it kills the score and room, and if your goal is shirt off, then they see the action which seems would be training guys the wrong way to expect shit for free when they don't tip.

The thing here is that no matter what you do, you WILL have people in your public chat (who didn't contribute a damn thing) watching your show. Unless CB happens to have a feature I don't know about where ONLY members who contributed get to see the show (similar to Streamate with the GOLD shows)?
If your viewers on both sites know that you splitcam the two sites, the smart ones will just head on over to your other site's public chat and watch your show there in GUEST MODE.
If you happen to be one of the cam girls who cams from TWO computers and TWO webcams, you could just do that thing where you turn one computer to face the wall...or have a "Be right back" sign...or set an "Away" status...or just log off that site.
But if you are splitcamming on one computer, then yes, your options would be to either set an "Away" status or log off that site to do your show on the other site.

Yes, CB has that app/bot where you can give a show only to tippers. I can certainly split cam from two computers with two webcams. I guess I'll tell the MFC guys "too bad you're missing out", while they get to stare at my bookcase LOL. I just wasn't sure if there is a more tactful way to handle the dilemma. I love the idea of working on MFC after I've done my daily hours on the private based sites, but my cam score sucks, haven't streamed there in a year, so I don't expect much conversation or tips right away. It is very likely that I will make more tokens everywhere else for a good long while.
hyori
06-15-2016, 10:18 AM
I really wish that MFC wouldn't count time in break as time that gets calculated into the camscore. I know that they automatically kick you out after 15 minutes of break time anyway, so why is it even factored?
I'm pretty sure MFC won't ever give models the ability to force pvts or groups but if they did, man, it would be a game changer for me.

Really hoping my MFC payment is in my bank account tomorrow morning. I'll be leaving tomorrow to go to PA and won't be back 'til Monday night. Which means I'm also gonna have to set all my eBay listings in some sort of "break" mode (I've never had to do that before, but I'd hate to have someone make a purchase on, say, Friday night, and me not be able to mail it 'til Tuesday).

MFC is a totally different beast from other token sites because of the harshness of the camscore. It's best to try and use it to your advantage rather than think of it as an evil thing. Because of the nature of competitiveness on MFC, it can be tough on girls who don't like being "ranked". It can also be a huge motivator. I find that no other camsite gets me more excited to work because of all the amazing potential. On days that I bank on MFC, there's such a feeling of accomplishment that is addictive. I use that to my advantage as well, it keeps me consistent and on routine with my schedule.
It's just so different from SM. On SM, it's much more passive where you are more of a "lure" to get guys to take you private. It's more focused on individuals rather than building up popularity...unless you're a strictly gold show model.
To ease the break in period between SM and switching over to MFC, don't do it cold turkey. I would suggest dedicating certain days to MFC and doing at least 4 hour shifts while you have the new girl status. Have vids/pics to sell as well and have your profile organized and ready to go. It doesn't have to be fancy. Having some kind of niche helps as well.
SM models who do really well with gold shows usually thrive on MFC. I've encouraged many models who are gold show hustlers to try out MFC and I can say confidently that they do better on MFC than they do on SM.
