I really hope she will consider recording a few coaching sessions for the future. Would be awesome to be able to watch them later or in case some could not attend at a particular time.
Agreed!

I wish you would all give thought to coming to one of Nikki's coaching sessions if for nothing else to watch her on cam.
Um, dumb question time.....there are classes?

Yes.. there are coaching sessions. If you log into your cam4bucks.com account you should see the "NEWS" on the dashboard page. The coaching sessions are listed there (time/subject/etc). I'll talk with Nikki about recording the shows. She does mail out copies of the shows to those that mail and request one.

I am so in! Thanks Kim.
I've caught a couple of Nikki's sessions she is awesome and she will do one on one if you email her. Also check out some the stuff in the performer help blog. I got some good tips on how to sell vids that I will be trying out.

Made 15 TOKENS from a countdown today. Woot! It is some kind of progress. I didn't recognize the sound though so I accidently didn't even end up saying thank you for them. (*embarrassed look*)

Sorry to ask so many newbie questions, but where on cam4bucks can you see who tipped you and how much?

Any of you ladies using the twitter connect? If so do you use the twitter account you already have set up or did you make one specifically for cam4? I have the same handle on cam4 as on mfc (pretty close anyway lol) so I wasn't sure if I can just use my general CalicoCadence twitter or if I should make another spefically for cam4 since the connection allows the app to post on my behalf and such. Any ideas?
ETA: I tweeted with the cam4 hashtag tonight while I was broadcasting and I was pleasantly surprised to see that cam4 retweeted me! Also, I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of this site a LOT more with every day I spend there.
Does anyone else have any problems trying to access the forum there? I've tried off and on since I joined cam4 in December and I've never been able to get the forum to load.

Click on tokens at the top of the cam4 page (cam4.com/token (http://www.cam4.com/token)), then performance history. It shows who tipped what.

Wow, you have to click through a lot of things just to get at the name of the person who tipped you. O.O

Is there a way to pause the session? and how do I end the chat? I've been just closing the window but its so annoying if i just want to get a drink because everyone is kicked out
Not that I have found Laurie I just tell them to chill out for a minute and talk to each other if i need to get a drink or take a call or something. Most of them will stick around.

I agree with Rina, I always so ok, brb need to grab something to drink/quick bathroom break/or whatever. Most ppl stay. The ones that normally leave didnt plan to tip anyway just staring at you just because

^^Laurie I agree with those ladies comments. I do exactly that as well and even though I don't have major traffic at this point anyway, the people who like you and want to reach your goals are most likely to stay and the freeloaders most likely to leave to find quick jerk off elsewhere. Also, I emailed kim at
[email protected] and she got it? haha

I actually have it set so only people with tokens can chat with me and it kind of baffles me how many of them are abusive freeloaders! O.O
I mean, I am used to dealing with MFC and you get some premiums that are entitled and abusive but Cam4 is kind of crazy right now. I know it is just the culture because they are moving from a non-token system to a token one so the guys that have tokens think that girls are going to now get naked faster for them because they gave them 10 cents.

01-27-2014, 05:16 PM
^^ You're totally right JAC, it's an all new world with the token-less muted! lol I'm surprised how much crap you're getting from people with tokens though. Usually they are fairly well behaved for me.
I honestly have found the members on Cam4 to be less abusive than the ones on MFC. Experiences are going to vary though I don't care much for the Chaturbate guys though, ugh.
JAC I'm in no way trying to invalidate your experience. I just wanted to offer another thought on the matter.
I also think time of day is a factor in when assholes are on.

I've never found anyone more abusive than the members on MFC... Most of Cam4's members may be freeloaders but they're not nearly as rude as some other sites.

I would have to agree the begging here is worse.99% of the men that contact me just want skype for free, cam for free etc. I don't even make anything on here. I've tried different hours , different outfits.
Most models show up 100% nude and then go from there.
Even the change of the site from free to paid has been started almost 2 years ago. Why are some guys still complaining is beyond me. I think now they feel slighted that women ignore them so they do the "Ohh you're looking for tokens??"passive aggressive bit.
Most models charge something now even if it's just a small amount but still it seems like not enough members are actual spenders.

It just may be that I've been having bad luck with Cam4.
Or good luck with MFC? (It baffles my little brain to think of it from THAT angle!)
Thanks for giving me the heads up that my experience hasn't been your experience lovely girls. I always appreciate hearing it. It is never fun when your own personal bias comes back to bite you in the butt and when you complain about it then everyone looks surprised and says....."Oh.....I thought you KNEW!" LOL!

01-28-2014, 10:06 AM
Hey JAC I just wanted to throw this in there just in case..
I realized a few days ago that after you do a show, click out, and then come back on to do another most of your options selected from before are deselected now. Which meant for me that there were several days where I was workin with a lot of freeloaders and didn't realize that I had not re-selected the option. Now I change the font size too (to suuuuper huge) so I'll realize quickly if my options aren't still selected.
I wish you luck on Cam4 and it is still hard going for me because I'm trying to find ways to get the paying members in chat. I actually STOPPED talking out loud in chat and have done better which has me scratching my head...whatever works though and less effort on my part most of the time.

Cam4 has a broadcast image gallery that other people can see? WTF!?!
I guess I should of looked into it more before I signed up. I remember reading that they said they took pictures but they said they only used them in case someone filed a complaint.
I had no idea that they would be taking unflattering pictures of me the whole time I was online that I would then be able to see. :/
Someone else please tell me that I am the ONLY person who can see what is in my broastcast image gallery....*whimpers*

Argh! That was so not cool! Why was it set on by default?
I googled and found their blog entry on it.
http://blog.cam4.com/news/new-cam4-profiles-broadcast-gallery/
But I couldn't find 'manage'. The explanation was truly confusing to where to find the option.
For those of you who are looking for it to turn off your broadcast settings you actually have to go to: My Account >> Profile Display Options >> Show previous broadcast images and uncheck the checked box.
Is there even a way to pick and choose at least the GOOD pictures that they take? I wouldn't mind so much but of course since the snaps are random they end up taking some really random bad unflattering ones.

Yeah, the image gallery of your broadcast made me cringe at first, lol. I was like oh hell no, that's not cute! Glad you figured out how to fix that, I wish it wasn't the default.
As far as taking a break, I do exactly what the other girls have said "I'll be right back, you guys are making me so thirsty I need a refill!" smile and go get your drink. I make it quick of course but it's a pain to go out and back in if you don't have to.
Kim, I want to thank you for the info about how to sell content through the profile! I've had some interest and put up a pic set and video for purchase tonight. Trying to decide what my next pic set will be, a lot of my content is older and I prefer keeping it fresh.
Ok, my irritation for tonight, let me vent for a moment:
I was camming from the bathroom (did a bubble bath show tonight) and because guys saw I was in my bathroom I got TONS of requests to pee and poop. I mostly laughed it off and said "Sorry, that's against da rules here for me and I like my job, so it's a no." and I got more than one response of "I've seen models do it here."
Really? Are you kidding me? For one, I'm not stupid... as in "everyone else is doing it so I should too!" and for two, it's still against the rules asshole. If they want to shit for you then great. Let them.

Apparently it's not against the rules. There's a model that pisses first and then shits after. I never stay for the shit part can't stomach it myself.

Hi girls and Kim,
I have two questions:
1.) my friend wants to do account on cam4 that she performs and all the time gets this error: ALERT: Username and/or email is invalid, or already exists. Please try again.
Which cant be right. Because she tried totally new username, password and new email, three times, three different onese and the result is always this ALERT
2.) How do i block a user on cam4 who is on purpose all the time rating me 1 star and being rude to me? Can i block him now when im not online broadcasting as well somehow? Then is he blocked from my room for good or just for one day?
Please anyone who knows, im thankfull for your replies!
Huggs,

Is there a way for cam4 to add a break button feature like SM have? It would be much easier for me to "pause" while I need to grab something really quick or to take a bathroom or to do private on other sites.. Rather than close whole the window for few min away.

This is why I don't run the site that often. Not enough traffic for me to turn down shows on other sites and there is no way to pause.
You can make your room private and nobody will see you.

I tried that but then could not get back into free chat. I must be doing something wrong.
I don't know laurie there used to be a way to get out of it. I haven't tried it in a while maybe something changed. You clicked disable or something, but I just tried it and now it doesn't work. If I need to go to the bathroom or something I just tell them I'll be right back and go, and they wait, that doesn't help for doing a private on another site though.
