One of my regulars came back from the grave today. That was a nice surprise.
The only other activity I've had is some rando. I don't think he's going to message back. I think he's run out of $$.

I'm honestly just wondering when my gif is gonna get taken down. There seems to be no consistency about what you can and cannot show. Like for fucks sake we're all adults and we can follow rules but not WHEN WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE RULES ARE.

Ugh right? I want to update my gif but I don't feel like worrying about what's acceptable now.

I was skimming thru profiles the other day to see if anyone else had any "forbidden" stuff in their profile & a gif that was no different than my old one & low and behold I found a woman's profile that said kinky in her tagline section & her gif was all cleavage. I had no cleavage really in my old one that got taken down so I dunno how her's is still up?????

The video chat guys on here are a joke. If you're not naked right away, they either leave right away or jack for 2 minutes and disappear. For this reason I like to hurry up and increase my prices as high as they can go right before a guy video chats me. It's so pointless though, spending all that time putting makeup and a sexy bikini, making sure the lighting is right, just for a measly 2 minutes. Waste of time anymore.
do it in low light. It's GFE. I act like I don't have a clue what camming is. And I will say, "I don't have make up on, babe" they don't care. I can have a hoodie on and a tank. long as I point it to my tits and SLOWLY take off that hoodie... I was a master at drawing that stuff out. I just am so over the site.
I should say I USED to do that bc I deleted this app on my phone. If it gets good again, I'll get back into it. But it's not even worth the ROI anymore. Rather look at kitty gifs online while on the can than star dudes now.
Someone said they were *2* texts away from payout. I was the same way the last time. I starred every guy, sent messages to my big spenders that I had sexy pics. just to get those last two texts. Hit payout (I switched to daily when it went to shit) and then deleted that bitch from my phone as soon as I saw I got paid.
NOPED OUT.

I'm actually doing "better" this week. Updated my gif and got some more texts. Mostly cheap guys asking for my snap though.
Edit: I was 2 texts away from payout on Oct 1 and now I'm at 65 dollars. Yeah, so that's my ""better.""

I was told by the phrendly bot that my beta version of the app was expiring and to download the new version. But when I tried to download it, it said they weren't accepting any more beta users. I sent a message to support and they told me the app is no longer available in the app store. Is this true? Are they getting rid of the app? It was so convenient for me!

I signed up. Starred guys for two days. Then said eff this. The site just didn’t feel... right. Like I would have to troll and troll and troll for minimal if ANY money, and I just can’t be bothered with that crap. I was actually considering popping back on in case I gave up too quickly, but checking the updates on this thread made me realize I shouldn’t bother.

I don't understand how one of my gifs was ok for months, now all of a sudden it's unapproved due to nudity/suggestive content (showing cleavage.) I have big tits-it's kind of hard to hide them. lol Plus other girls with big tits show cleavage in their gifs but it's ok-it doesn't seem fair.

They removed a GIF I had up for almost a year out of the blue one day. I swear, there's an angry 40-yr-old virgin living in his mother's basement who works for Phrendly and he is the one who approves/disapproves/scans for "inappropriate" GIFs.

Yup, the slow demise of Phrendly is here. Started about a year ago but now I think it's catching up to everybody. Happened a lot sooner than I expected. If it wasn't for my regulars, I would barely make any money on this site.

I don't get guys who don't send gifts because they're "broke" and then spend $30+ talking to you. You could have sent me a chocolate box and we'd both be happy -- you get a titty pic and you get off, I get my money faster and I don't have to talk to you. You played yourself, kid.

Phrendly is fucking up. I just had my profile hidden and I'm in the reapproval process after a YEAR of having the same bio. Suddenly, it's inappropriate. I was just advertising that I send out pics and videos. It has taken almost THREE days to be reapproved. I'm still waiting. As much money as I've made the team of monkeys that run this site, I didn't deserve that.

I agree of the decline sadly :( my few regs are literally the ONLY thing keeping me afloat on here anymore. I have to wait to bid depending on how much I have in my balance for the day. I've had a couple guys make my day but nothing more which sux bc I'm unable to cam right now due to my current living situation.
I dunno wtf has happened to this site, other than guys getting pissed off feeling ripped off & or the girls on here that actually HAVE ripped them off by promising to meet up then not doing so (despite the rules), sending non nudes when they've promised otherwise for gifts, etc. Who knows anymore with this site. It has SUCH potential. Are any of you even bidding anymore?

The bidding system is insane now. I turned off promos for october because I was travelling. Now that I went to turn it back on the top spot is at $34 for me. I used to bid between 90 cents and $3 to keep my spot. I'm hiking up the promo just for today to see if it changes anything but doubt it will. Also, while I was off promos, I had some texts from regulars but otherwise it was dead.

It's a shame that the only way to add photos on this site is to use the snapshot feature (which is a hassle to do, plus not even having the pics approved half the time, so I never do it anymore...lol), or to connect a Facebook or Instagram account. Um...I would never use the same photos from FB on an adult site, so that's a big fat NO right there. Lol. I have some sexy camera phone pics of me in my nun costume, and it would've been nice to be able to have them in my profile.

I've noticed the guys on here getting stingier as well. They seem to be less willing to give gifts for pics or do phone calls or video chat. If they do video chat, they only do it for a couple minutes and they're already jacking off as soon as I accept it. SMH.
I find it funny how some of the ugliest guys will have on their profile something like "Not paying for this app, here's my Snapchat, hit me up" or "Won't give gifts for pics". Get over yourselves! lol

Can't you make a completely new Instagram account with a new email address then change your email on Phrendly to match. Then post those pics to Insta and then on Phrendly? It won't link to your FB account that way.(use a different birthdate on Insta too)
And make the account private and ignore any Friend suggestions they give you and don't pick any type of name for the account that any of your friends or family know.

What exactly do you mean by "shady"? I've always had a shady feeling about Phrendly. For a long time I thought the app was rigged in the favor of a select few girls. Now that they've introduced the bidding system I no longer feel that way. I think it's shady how they suddenly remove people's GIFs and how there's no specific standard for what an acceptable vs. unacceptable GIF is. The whole app is based on a bait-and-switch so of course it's shady. I like Phrendly because it is easy money and you will receive the money you are owed, and even if I only made a few hundred dollars a month on it, that's still more money that I otherwise wouldn't have had.

Spot on to what I was thinking. I saw words like kinky/fetish/send gifts for nudes profiles, as well as a profile picture with bare tits cut off at the nipple, and quite a few cleavage shots. No hate but wtf. My profile was disabled for less.
That and idk this bidding system could easily be manipulated by them.
As far as the click system works.
Annnnd I had decent profile scores and would bet say 3 and pay .70-1.00
This week I was in the top 90%+ in all categories except responsiveness and am paying full bid amount. (I usually bet between 1-3) it is really fucking cringe to pay that much for little to no traffic.
Also, I havent made shit this month so being in a high percentile for earnings has me really questioning the sites traffic.
Sigh, it really was great. I think their issue lies with their ip and what they wanted their platform to be versus what it became.
Edit/spelling.

That is what you're doing.
But imo the traffic is not there to make it worth it.
I spent over a 100+ in bidding in June and it was worth it because I made more than that in one day. Ever since then it's slowed down.
Now, if it wasn't for my regulars, I would barely be making payout.

And I’m realizing there’s some kink in the matrix. I star around 200 people a day in addition to doing the promotion and have realized the promotion takes money for clicks I’ve generated myself from starring people. So I’ve just turned off my campaign at this point and gone back to starring people while I do my skincare routine.
Lunanegra
11-13-2018, 02:47 AM
No, its designed that way.
You get charged for every click you receive, by anyone who has a credit card on file, and hasn't visited your profile in the last 30 days. Regardless if your campaign is active or not.
So, if you star alot of people, your bound to star people who have credit cards on file. It is good to keep it off then.
But, if you have decent scores I would advise against turning it off for too long because as soon as your scores dip, bidding gets more expensive.
Just a ps for everyone. If you're messaging long lost friends. Set your bidding low because they all have cc on file. You will get charged if they go into the app/site to read the message.

I've been going off mostly regulars and some video here and there, new text convos are minimal. My promo cap is $5 a day cause I'm definitely not paying more than that. It's definitely a stark contrast to the activity I saw this time last year.
katydiamond123
11-13-2018, 10:32 PM
ADDED SOMETHING ON NOV 14
It isn't 30 days anymore. They changed that without letting anyone know. It is 14 days now. Phrendly also is charging more for clicks now as I used to get charged only part of my bid most of the time. This month its been almost the full bid everytime.
They are making up for the income they are losing from not having the iphone app. I have been asking people what they click on and the whole thing is a scam pretty much. I had a regular click on me after over a year!! I happen to know him personally (I've had 3 or 4 people I know elsewhere buy videos on the site from me) so I asked him and he didn't click on me. He hasn't been on the site for over a year.)
NEW LINE: And I had a client this week who did talk to me but he clicked on my profile in the morning at 9:30 AM and it says I talked to him all day from that time on. And I didn't . It was a long time but the times were all incorrect. So I don't know what to think of that. The click was valid but not sure why it said i talked to him every 10 minutes.
This is from the HELP for an qualified click:
A phrend who has a valid credit/debit card on file stars your profile and then views it within 24 hours.
A phrend who has a valid credit/debit card on file clicks or taps on your profile in the Phrendly Formula sort.
This is unqualified:
A phrend clicks on your profile but has had paid transactions with you within the last *14 days.*
A phrend who does not have a valid credit/debit card on file clicks on your profile.
A phrend clicks on your profile but has already made a Qualified Click in the past 24 hours.
A phrend clicks on your profile in a sort option other than Phrendly Formula.
A phrend clicks on your profile from a search page.
A phrend clicks on your profile after having already made 50 qualified clicks on Phrendly in the last 24 hours.
A Phrendly employee clicks on your profile.
Someone clicks on your Tell-a-Friend link.
I forgot: someone realized that they are getting charged for turning guys without a credit card into a spender. As soon as you talk a guy into
buying a drink and he does you are charged a click. Seems like it's actually bad then if the guy only spends two texts and your bid is over 70 cents
you are actually PAYING for him to become a client! You need to have earned more than what the click they charge you is worth or else it's not worth it to make him a client. And I've had more short texts than ever before this month. So I've actually paid to talk to some people as the other person who posted said.

So you're saying that you star people and when they star you back you are getting charged for that? Or when they are clicking on you i just noticed you said "clicks you generated"
If they just star you back you shouldn't be getting charged. Only if they also click on your profile and read it.
I never thought of that. I guess most of the people I star are new and don't have a credit card or debit on file yet. I have never noticed that but maybe I'll go back and look because what
you are saying makes sense.
IN that case if a lot of people read your profile you could run out of money very quickly if you star a lot of people and most of them read your profile. That's a very good point. Thanks.

I know one person who is having issues with the campaign at times and the software so if ANYONE ELSE has had problems with the campaign like it putting you down to position 1000 for no reason at all (you have money left) or
basically stopping when it shouldn't, Or saying the campaign was paused when it shouldn't be and you find your Do Not Disturb button is on.[/SIZE][/SIZE] And other stupid things that shouldn't happen.......
Does anyone have problems with the notification sounds. (When someone stars you it no longer makes a sound on your phone to notify you if you are not home and only have your phone? Is the sound coming through on your computer?
Does anyone have messages going to their phone up to 5 min or much longer after you received them? (when previously it was right away?) 2 of us have that issue that I know of and i have an iphone,they have android. They bought a tablet and a laptop and still had the problem with the tablet.
Is the campaign ever using up your money and moving you to the wrong positions? When you have money left? FOR EXAMPLE YOU WILL BE IN POSITION #89 when your bid is for #38 and you have the budget for it and no clicks taken off.
I have had all of these things happen and they are telling me it is ONLY MY ACCOUNT. I know of at least 2 other people who have had similar things happen but probably only reported it here not with support.Or didn't report it at all. If you go back in the messages a girl had what I had: she was at position 10000 or 1000 because it said she ran out of money when she didn't .
They are telling me that since it's only happening with my account there is nothing they can do about it.And that is my score is affected from it they can't do anything about that either. I know that isn't true. They can program in anything they want. A million dollar company can't figure out a software bug?? This is just like when my phone didn't work when I first joined. They couldn't fix it til I got a really good support person once and they looked into it and found that is was from my account being Canadian and connection issues. It was finally fixed after 6 months. I could not get one phone call before then.
I've read that a lot of girls have had problems with the video chat. Do you still have them?
If you have problems please write it here so we can see how many people have them or write to support . Thanks.:):):)
