Okay, I'll try the new software tonight or tomorrow, and hopefully I can see for myself that c2c works. Thanks, ladies.

Yes I use it, or rather did untill this http://www.adultwork.com/dlgKBArticle.asp?TargetURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eadul twork%2Ecom%2FdlgKBSearchResults%2Easp%3FCommandID %3D1%26Q%3DADULT%2BWORK%2BNOTIFIER%26T%3D1%26Targe tURL%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww%252Eadultwork%252Eco m%252FdlgFAQsNew%252Easp&T=1&Q=ADULT+WORK+NOTIFIER&ArticleID=690 Which peobably explains why it no longer works. I found it really usefull. I am registered for phone so I get a text when recieving webcam/phone bookings and when I have been online for 2 hours and been logged of as being available. Hope that get a new one sorted soon.
Does anyone use the desktop notifier for bookings? is it supposed to do anything when u click on it mine doesnt -_-

I cant report anyone Susie ,i m not that type,i feel that they are discriminating sometimes,did u know east europeans cant use the direct cammer of the day spot ?wonder why ?some of us really work for our money,at least I hardly do!And now that my friend was banned for such a small mistake, i feel it more!Its enough we have to charge less for not being in the uk,its enought that members call us names,now seeing someone banned ,while other profiles adversiting same things are still on ,its so dissapointing!It makes me sad.We re all not all the same ,ya know?

I doubt it's a permanent ban. Usually it's just for a few weeks.

yes its for few weeks but unfair,several profiles adversiting same roleplay are still on!she thought its correct from seeing in uk profiles,wish she would ask me :(

Maybe someone has reported her, whereas the others haven't been reported.
sexysusie
10-07-2013, 04:40 PM
If there's a word on the profile that indicates a banned topic AW will auto delete the profile. No reporting necessary.
In this case I daresay if she emails AW and explains the problem and insists she will never indicated a banned topic on her profile again, they will reinstate her profile.
For future reference I suggest she (and you) read the rules here http://www.adultwork.com/Terms.asp
Also, why do you feel you need to charge less? You can set your rate any level you like. Guys are ready and able to pay. Charging £1 or less as most eastern europeans do is counterproductive.

I know what it is Susie,but so many studios in my country set for their girls low price, that when i set more than 1 they tell me im not cheap and Im not getting pvts.and also I cant do only grp/pvt ,i have to be all the time in free chat ,if i set grp/pvt only i can have a week of 0!.became so annoying.still,its my main site,I started here and I love it as it is. Im independent and I wish I could charge more but even my regulars are cheap lol!Soon I ll try other sites too,and charge more for aw if I ll have some luck there,till then ...i just deal with free chat and my low rates :(

Men in the UK can buy a burger at McDonald's for 99p. What do you think they think of you if you are charging the same for your body, or even less? They can and WILL pay more. All that will happen is you will lose the cheapo losers who are dragging you down and replace them with more respectful guys. If you are independent then there is nothing stopping you x

I finally got around to applying for a passport last week, specifically to work AW. It's been on my to do list for a year, LOL. It cracked me up that there is a place to put info about your trip. Nah, not leaving home BBs, just going to visit some perverts!

You don't NEED a passport. I got approved without one and I'm in the US. I just sent them my drivers license, social security card, and birth certificate and they accepted it.

I know Aleks ,i ve seen u in online now tab ,i still think that being european affects me but I wont lower.Whats bad its that aw being my only site I wont make any money until I ll find someone to like my new price ,I wait and wait...
Added new sites to cam on ,but that will be next week,till then i hang on aw without pvts lol.If i lower back to 0,99 they wont stop coming in free and some pvt me .Cheapos!Is like i dont have value if im european ,damn it!I pay for hourly spot ,i update my profile,thinking to try aw tv but not sure if it will matter :)
SexyAleks
10-09-2013, 06:32 PM
For sure it affects us for many reasons, because many guys know how to filter by country, and using the search option also shows them just the cammers within their country, but this is how the site is written. Not much can be done about that. I am not willing to go cheaper either, plus the pound isn't very strong now against the euro and the money isn't great when converted. If they want cheaper, they can always buy from my special offers which give them discounts as long as they stay over 15 minutes. I also tend to keep the group and private rates very close, because I want to encourage privates, they are much easier for me.

I prefere privates too ,and i have offers but they seem to like NOTHING these days .
Oh well,tomorrow will be better,hopefully!

Not disputing the members calling you names issue, but I have never encountered that on AW? Maybe your rates are attracting scumbags. I find the clients to be some of the nicest on any camsite I've been on. But that doesnt always correlate into more money though.

There are those freeloader types that throw tantrums when you refuse to show them stuff for free, but this can be expected on any camsite with free chat, unfortunately.

Yes most of them are nice ,I agree on that.As for those calling names,they exist too.They are everywhere,aw isnt an exception.Lucky if u never got them .Yeah maybe my rates are atractive for those but...last one was 2 days ago when I was charging 1.89.Anyway,I dont get them often but when I do im annoyed.Which is normal,I think:)
