I'm about to blow a fucking gasket! I swear if another camgirl starts hustling in my room I'm going to lose it on cam. I am sick and tired of fellow cammers doing this. You only have 20 people in your room? Then get your lazy rear up and start putting in some work! I didn't get 500, 800, or 1200 people in here by laying on my bed looking at other cammers and messaging my tippers. At one point I had like 600 people and it all of a sudden dropped by like 200 out of the blue. come to find out, some chick had been messaging my tippers as they tipped. Finally she accidentally messaged one of my regulars and was banned. This is a daily occurrence on cam for me now with different women. I can't block other cammer on cb because then it blocks everyone who is verified even if they aren't on cam... which most of my high tippers are. I also make a substantial amount off of c2c sessions, so I'd be completely shooting myself in the foot by doing so. I could block women from viewing my cam, but it'll cut my viewership and block 2 of my regular high tippers.
I don't want to go off on these women, but I have a feeling it's inevitable at this point. I've been reporting them, but it's obvious they're just getting warnings because I see them on at other times. I'm just so over this week already :/

First hour on cam yesterday, with lots of traffic, even guys with #1, #2, And #3's next to their name, yet.. no prvts? Weird!:boggled:
They would come in, say hi, then vanish! I changed outfits, stood, sat, tuned, talked, didn't talk, changed my static pic, started a gold show countdown(no one pledged).... Then I Lowered my rates... still nada.
I just logged off and went to sleep.
Today I noticed that gold show e-mail, so maybe it was bad because they were working on that yesterday. (well, not all of us, when I logged in last night I noticed another model just sitting looking down at her phone during a gs countdown, and someone tipped in $100). Guess the guys were spending on her. It happens.:pessimist

I logged on late tonight because I just felt another time waster day. So my reg popped in right at that time. I thought finally things are looking up. He became unresponsive in a I'll respond to you every 5-10 minutes sort of way. I think I've unfortunately inflated his ego and so has the non tipping room. That's when I realized he was spending money elsewhere and with me pming he probably felt like a god on chump change. My goal was just to make it to 1k and I only had another $55 to go 3 hours later I got it but why did it take 3 fucking hours. That's just so foul.
My next move is to go on another site. MFC is dead and it's really only great for three days a week. I can't stand making $500 one night then $50 another night and it's usually the night I spend the most time logged in.
As usual they always spend more when I disappear and It's just about that time again. I'm going to cam on every other site and then log back in over the weekend. If that guy takes too long to tip I'm out. I'm really getting tired of the 100 questions of nothingness and oohh look let me tip you $5 her you go little girl. Uhmm some of us have big girl bills. I'm not saving up for a tricycle! >:(
Looking on the bright side nothing beats 5 minute free chat.... On my way AW !!!! -------------->

IKR?? I kick myself for not doing cam when i was 21 which was 1995.. because I had a small child almost turning 5 and i was HOMELESS.. I would have killed for an opportunity like this then.

^^ Was camming around in 1995? I knew about it back in 2006, but didn't follow through with it, because I was still making lots of money dancing, and in corporate.
Now I wish I had started then, because who would have thought there would be an upcoming recession back then, when the money was flowing.
Damn!

Yes and some girls became Millionaires off of it.. the rates were sky high and every guy wanted to buy a show!.. it was a new novelty. Some of them were from IFRIENDS i believe.. maybe someone else would like to expound upon this.

If I was making that kind of money then, I seriously doubt I would be camming, the way it is now.
I'm only 3 1/2 years in, and already have watched the decline in ... well, the word seems to be 'Respect'., and lately, it's not as much fun.
Now, it's a drag..

Caramelcraze, that shit would piss me off too. I've had desperate MFC models in my room straight up advertising FREE Skype shows for members who left my room to go see them. Smh. What's with the 'Bring It On: All or Nothing' competitive shit? LOL.
I'm also not thrilled when models are like "Hi, I'm a model on here too. How's your night going? Are these boys treating you well?" Well, gee...if I answer that question truthfully and say that it's been shitty so far, that doesn't make me look too good, now does it? Lol. And then what? The model will respond by giving me unsolicited advice (in my public chat)? Yeah, uh...no.....

Some guy on Streamate told me to "Go be white with the other light Hispanics" I swear that site has way more racist fucks than any other cam site. I am quitting that site for good. I always gave it another try but with all the freeloaders, tech issues, 0 gold shows, stalking cam performers and racists I say fuck you.

It took me five hours to make $120 when I was hoping to make $250. I guess it wasn't a total bust, because I usually have horrible Wednesdays, but I really need the money right now and I worked very hard today. I tried to get online at an earlier time and it didn't even come close to working out well. Now I have to marathon tomorrow for the first time ever to make up for it and I'm just hoping I'll get somewhat better placement even though I won't be on at my normal time.

I'm pissed after a week a off being woken up at 9am by builders working in the stupid shop below me with their endless non productive banging, preventing me from getting on cam.I decided to take a wander down to the beach as the sun was shining, first day in the sea and i slipped on a rock and my full weight went on my third toe.. was sore at the time but now 8 hours on absolute agony, cannot walk, truly turning a lovely colour of blue and black right under the toenail......the bf says its not broken but I'm not sure... shite all round really!
I hear you. I've had an 8 storey condo construction going on next door for nearly 2 years. It's just behind my bedroom wall. I work till early morning and I'm usually just getting to sleep when they start up at 7am. It takes a bit of getting used to. Today they were busy grinding all day long. Fortunately it'll be finished in a month or so.
The piling was the most fun as the whole ground shakes.

The PM Viewer feature on MyFreeCams annoys me. :banghead:
I greet members, and instead of responding they quickly switch to PM Viewer mode so they can lurk/freeload all night without having to talk to me. The only time they switch back to public chat is when they feel like posting something like "I'd fuck da shit outta you, gul!"

I always imagined token sites were more rife with freeloaders, since they actually can get a public/free show, and more people= more rudeness. I always heard MFC guys were super abusive. I don't think I could be trolled any harder than on SM lately though! What's up with that, people are soooo nasty lately.

This is a vent about myself. I can be a very hard worker, but I'm also a scatter-brain, disorganized and I misplace things frequently. Thank God for Payoneer because about 3-4 times I forget to deposit cheques and then I have to have them reissued. Am looking for a 6 month old Streamate cheque and my first Kinkbomb cheque and they're nowhere to be found! I uncovered a 5 month old Verotel cheque though. Where's my ginko biloba?

I wonder if it's because SM makes it difficult to block people? The worst offenders I've had on SM were always the one who'd leave the room immediately after.
I had to remind myself that some of the SM viewers probably came over from that sick Motherless site too, since SM had ads up on there. A lot of the guys on that site talked about sick shit they did to animals.
There used to be a time when the trolling on MFC was bad, and I was getting all kinds of nasty comments in each shift. But it hasn't been like that for me in a long time. One night there was this group of guys (maybe like 3 or 4 guys) who thought it'd be funny to fill up my public chat with nothing but tons of back-to-back neon, moving emotes. The way they did it, I just knew they'd been planning the shit prior to entering my room. Those guys were probably from The Lounge. That was some time ago though, and I'm so glad that MFC makes it easy to ban people, at least. Sometimes I wish they had a 'kick' button though.

Motherless should be shut down. That site makes me nauseous. I know SM put a gold show of mine up there. *eye rolls* without even linking to my chatroom. Gee thanks guys! That's going to make it easy for me to profit and entertain people who may want to see me. They could at least give us traffic for using our videos for free! I know it's on our contract though. SM offered to take it down for me I just said I want a link! Guess I'll have to start a stupid motherless account to put my screenname out there.
Motherless has definite pedo-lovers out there too. *shudder* tons of their popups feature girls who in no way can possibly be 18, or they're freakishly young looking 18-19 year olds, which is also illegal to promote in porn I believe.
I hate that Sm doesn't let us search and ban usernames after the fact! Ugh!

You're never going to know if a girl is underage by sight. People still accuse me of being 16 when I'm 26. Some people just look young. It's not such a bad thing.

I always thought tokens sites had more freeloaders until I tried them this year. In my experience the customers are friendly and they do tip. I cam on MFC and Chaturbate, I wasn't crazy about Cam4, they are full of freeloaders on there. Granted you might get some freeloaders but I get way more on sites like Streamate and Cams. Streamate customers seem to be getting ruder by the day, I'm not sure if it's from Gold shows or those lame ass dating ad's they run. Either way I am tired of it. I'm nice in free chat I don't deserve their shit.

I'm not exactly pissed off but definitely need to vent. :(
Not a cam girl yet but I hope my venting is welcomed. The first time I cammed the guys scared me away. Now after making a friend who cams and being encouraged (and informed on how to tell guys to stop trying to freeload) I decided to start camming so I can get out of the job I hate. I was so stoked to submit my profile pictures yesterday but then my car overheated and I spent the whole day trying to get it fixed and then came home with an awful headache since I only got 3 hours of sleep the night before. Needless to say I did not take my pics! I don't even have my car still! ARGH.
Today I am going to take profile pics and then probably get on MFC until my SM account is approved. But today I got a write up notice for missing work last week. I explained I was told I had a personal day and I was told they'd try to clear it up. But wow what motivation killers. I was so excited to be my own boss and make good money while enjoying myself but the job I hate (that makes me depressed and causes me physical pain from anxiety) has to kill the little motivation I had. I wish I could just say, "I don't care I'll be out of here soon." I am trying but it's not easy. My job makes me so sad... I wish I could go back to being excited about camming and not sad about my job...

I'm just so pissed off. I've been all super positive, even if I have't been making shit... Now I'm just UGH. I really need to make this money, not just to pay my bills, but to get out of a shitty job. I've put it almost 30 hours this week and a grand total of 58 dollars. 38 of which i can't get until I make it hit 50 because of payout minimum(and actually that first 19.80 was made the week before). What am I doing wrong, I'm friendly and inviting, but I'm not a push over I don't give out freebies. I'm sometimes a tease to see where that gets me, I run games, countdowns, when I can I cut out those who have no money, ban the assholes etc... OMG ><
Then all I get are dumbass who don't know how to read and ask for THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT I PROVIDE. Or maybe they do know how to read are just trolling me like.. FUCK OFF. *thrashes about*

They told me by email I have to broadcast SEVERAL times before I should submit my documents. Of course I submitted all the documents, going through whole process step by step as indicated in the sign up area - and then told to broadcast to finalize my application.... as is indicated as the way to do it on the site... so by the sounds of it I'll have to re-submit all my docs.
What? I have to earn tokens before I'm approved?... so if my application is rejected I won't be paid? Ridiculous.
Anyway, that was about 2 months ago. I haven't done any broadcasting yet, and going by some of the bitching I see on here about Cam4 I now wonder if it is even worth it.
