I originally posted this in the ELM thread but felt it should go here instead:
Can I add that people REALLY need to stop selling themselves so short on this extralunchmoney BECAUSE THERE IS SERIOUS DOUGH TO BE MADE LADIES... Fucking a, I seen a guy request a 5 minute video with a 5 pic photoset for ONLY 5 Credits. 5 credits converted to cash is $3.............. SERIOUSLY, you are going to waste your time for $3 when you have the potential to make way more off a request like that.... WAKE UP, girls MAXIMIZE YOUR EARNINGS... This 5 minute video turns in to at least an hour process, if you're uploading to the computer, then maybe include conversion time if you have to for your editing software, then adding a watermark to your video, then uploading to the website. TIME IS MONEY and our time is precious. I just know that there is good money to be made on this site and hate seeing people sell themselves short because and undercutting just to make a quick $3 for a JOI video. AND A CUSTOM VIDEO MIGHT I ADD. Yes, I know you can resell the video and maximize your profits that way, but a custom JOI video? PLEASE, people will pay out the ass for quality work. I guess part of it is branding yourself to your customers and being personable. If you set your prices so low, yeah you might sell alot of videos, but you're busting your ASS for something you could be making 5x that amount for on the SAME website.
I personally LOVE this site, it's just aggravating to see people do ANY kind of request for a sole 8 credits or w/e when they are beautiful girls and can be making so much more.. It makes the expectations of other customers drop and the value of other work drop. I still do really well despite this horrible epidemic of people not putting their actual worth into things. IDK. It is what it is.

Manyvids close my studio account without telling me. I hate to say but I feel that it could be because I put up a lot of trans content. Some other people had complained about this on other forums. In fact, it just happen after I put a trans kik package. I know they have this open door policy for trans people now but I just feel that if you have too much....that could be a problem. It was not like it was a major money maker for me but I just wanted to know why they would do such a thing? I hope they would explain themselves soon. :(

Telling me that my '1,000 tokens til topless' and then '1,000 tokens til naked' topic is "expensive." That's not expensive, fuckwad. You probably spend more than that organizing your little Super Bowl parties with the guys. Lmao.
Plus, the moment I get topless/naked and stay that way, y'all are gonna get quiet and not even tip me anymore, and my room will fill up with more people who will just stare in silence (some of them probably even recording me). And with all of that, we're just talking about $50-$100 in my pocket. Back in the day, I used to be able to get 3,000 tokens ($150) per MFC shift. So miss me with that "Wow, that's expensive..." bs.

Fuck camming and streamate and all the glitches and everything!
July 2016 will be written in the history as my worst month EVER since I am camming!
God send me some fucking whales!!!!
Why do you send me all the fucking freeloaders? I got tired of same OVER AND OVER "Show me something for pvt", "make me hard before pvt", "I don't wanna pay for this", "oh i was hoping to chat with u in free before i pay for show", "Show me a preview before pvt", "I don't want to tip for standup/show ass/ show heels in free, i wanna pay in pvt but show me free first".
FUCK YOU ALL!!
Where are the paying members?!?!?!
Where are the guys who have no problem going straight to private! Where are those real men who don't spin around the fucking tail, who do not do window shopping, who do not say "oh i have issues with my card" and "i need to pay bills, no money for pvt"?!?
Only pussies in my chat. Only lame men. Only scumbags and men I'd spit in the face if I was meeting them in real life!
How do they dare to complain in such a lame and embarrasing way about not having money, about having to pay bills?
What impression do they do?
And the most important: If you don't buy my show, motherfucker because you must pay your bills, then WHO pays my fucking bills? You compliments? Fuck off!!!
Rant over.
I am done. I feel better. I am all zen now.

I can't really focus on this shit right now. Bc of my upcoming holiday. I can't think about anything else, but what should i buy to be ready for travelling.
In prev period I've made amazing amount, but fucked up in this one. Not really coz of me, but there were days when i worked full time, and was so dead and I just reached min goals.
I think this is the most annoying and slow period for me, in this year.
So i still have 2 days to work it up but It seems dead, and whats more, I m on my period right now. :O
So whatever. I ll wait like 15 more min and if nothing happens, I m out of there, I dont care.
Overworked myself, nearly every day in this year. But pushing myself again for nothing, just make no sense, at this point. : *

All explained very well, by *Cutie101* nothing more to say. All these people just sit in my room and only these types:
- waiting quietly for free show. (when they realize there's no free show here: leave or just sit forever)
- just want to insult / troll
- beg
- think he do a favor with compliments... (maybe that s what i hate the most actually, and the sit forever type)
- "How long ll u be here, i wanna come back"
These guys giving such a horrible impression, this is insane.
Thankfully a high paying reg saved the day but anyway

When i come back from holiday, i really wanna work, like before. Like i have a goal, and a chance to reach it. Or whatever.
(I just arrived home from gym btw, and figured out, I do the workout better, if i had a bad day. When I earn well, i just pulling small weights lazily. Well, at least, there is a positive effect. :D )

I'm satisfied with july in general, but these past few days ughhhhh I wanna kill them idiots in my free chat! My tolerance is very low right now, all they do is beg beg beg omg do you have some self respect, and what annoys me more sarcastic comments from guys who bought one show few months ago, also other kind of comments like "you're not doing really good tonight", "you look bored", "make us happy" and similar. ah and my favorite " I thought we were friends, but you are here just for the money" LOL no shit. Guys who were nice to me for some time finally showed their real face, demanding for stuff, asking for discount, being in love with me and acting possessive. Excuse me but you don;t know shit about me or my life and you never will! EVER. Camming doesn't suck, but I do because I can't focus on new sites instead of wasting my time with same names and same shit everyday... I'm tired of it, but I'm not tired of spending money so I need to chill out a little and be smarter.

I totally hate those members on MFC with hundreds of thousands points showing on their profiles, that PM me and request my exclusive attention on them.
Without tipping any token.
Like their stupid points would increase my camscore just because I see them.
Fucking douchebags!
Oh and some of them point out they have been spending tens of thousands of dollars on site and i should treat them with respect, but when I tell them that I don't care because they didn't spend with me, I am the gold digger.
Pfffff.

Sorry you are going through that, i hate the men who act like self entitled pricks. Even if they spent that amount still dont give them the right to act like that they got what they paid for with their money on the site but the balls of those men is sickening especially when they didnt spend on you. What assholes. Hope things get better and you make cash from the men who arent like that.

Yeah, it lets me speechless when I see them coming and requesting attention, right in PM.
I don't even know how to treat the situation and actually make them tip, because it makes me want to treat them the same they do treat to me.
Like, why they don't stay in their favourite models rooms? Why would they come in a less popular model room and expect attention without tipping when, their points show clearly they have been on site for a while and they know how this actually works?
Idiots. They don't worth my attention anyways...

Probably because they like the attention feel like a big shot and think that you will do things to please them for free, sometimes the guys who have money are the worst who think they deserve everything and want more and more because they feel like their money can get them whatever they want. Ego boost is what they crave. If they want attention pay plain and simple.What they spent on others dont count, if it isnt spent on you. Hope things turn around for you, im sure it will they definately dont deserve your attention for nothing. hugs to you.

Cryin because my bestfriend/roomie doesn't talk with me and doesn't come talk to me either to tell me whats wrong. She always wants me to come to her to beg her to tell me whats wrong. Or she eventually talks but by beeing mean and hruting my feelings (she probably build up anger?). I didn't do anything wrong. My boyfriend doesn't talk with her (long story) so she decided to not talk with me either (at least thats what i know cause she wont come talk to me). I feel like crap and this affects my camming too. I wrote on life support too but this escalated. I avoid her around the house cause she makes me feel bad.
DAMN IT. TALK TO ME !! Don't throw our friendship to trash just because i didn't deicde to fight to my boyfriend too for you. Me and you are friends, if you two are pretending like u don't know eachother its ok with me. Tell me to go out for drinks, talk with me, show me you wanna keep this friendship dammit !

I'm pissed off that sex work has made me too jaded to date.
I'm trying online dating again, as I mentioned in the 4th of July thread.
Mainly because it's slow on cam, but it's also because I'm so bored living out here in the country.
The guys that message me are never my type, or are too sexual in their messages, or are too clingy, flakey,etc.
I even get guys from other countries looking for a free Skype show.( No, I never said I'm a cam model).
So many cops, and guys holding guns in their profile picture. Sorry....not interested.
I'm tired at the end of my camming shift. To have to call a guy and meet him for dinner, lunch, etc seems like work that I won't get paid for.

I also took another test a month ago that was answering questions.. said the same thing.. I am perplexed by this.. I always cared about people.. I surely don't so much anymore from all the abuse I have dealt with .. maybe that's why? hmmm new brainmapping.. it's disturbing to say the least.. OH WELL.. It makes me a great cam girl!..haha

Thanks for this post. Helps to let me know I am not the only one, specifically with the too jaded to date part, and the guys with guns in their pictures. I mean, I guess it's honest (i.e. I like it when I can see someone's psycho-ness right upfront, rather than finding it later), but ...yeah...total turn off. Really scary, and not sexy in the slightest, to me either. Especially given the context. I am not sure about everyone else's experiences, but I am finding that plenty of men, have a hard time handling their emotions dealing with camgirls/ cam women. I don't mean to sound ungrateful... I appreciate client support, but the boundaries need to stay quite clear. Why do so many guys not get this???? Seems like common sense. Are we devolving as a species? I mean, specifically, in regards to IQ :)

Those brief few minutes that I actually have a guy in my Cams Nude Chat or my ImLive private chat, it sucks that I have to spend part of that time asking them "Can you hear me?" and switching back and forth between 'Conexant SmartAudio HD' and 'HD Webcam C920' (in the microphone setting) until they say "Okay, I hear you now." SMH. Stuff like that makes me lose my motivation to even get on cam on these sites. How come when I get on MyFreeCams, I don't have that sound issue, and everyone CAN hear me?

Do you have to have sound on in nude mode?
If so, just change your profile to say you're a 'mime'.

It's such a pain when a basic - who's ALWAYS the first one in your room every night that you broadcast on MFC - has finally upgraded to a premium (meaning he's purchased his first 200 tokens), and turns out to be one of those annoying ass-kissers with a fetish (panty fetish) who expects you to cater to "Show me this" requests for free. When I came online, he was down to 55 tokens. He probably would have never tipped me those 10 tokens if it hadn't been for me getting on him about asking for things for free. I told him "You've been watching me on here for a while now...finally upgraded to a premium...and you're on here making requests without tipping???"
