Thank you, thank you, thank you! That is precisely the thread I had in mind and could not find it again. Been doing a lot of reading on mfc and I am so nervous. I wasted 2 hours with zero tips of new model status. Hoping this time it goes better, now that I have some camming experience.
I think I am going to give this site a real try. I have popped on here and there but never really tried it out. Streamate seems to be turning into all Gold shows and frankly I dont want to do all of that for only 35 percent, it doesnt seem worth it to me.
Also I am going to contact him and ask that he takes me back. I am very sorry, and we did not know the window on cam would pick him up as he walked by. I liked MFC, money was easy to come by there. Now that I can only put in certain amount of $ monthly I can work a few select sites and have my pay for the month quicker.
I love the token sites, I just can't work them long enough hours due to my disability.
I am not sure yet. I have contacted him, he approved my application after I was banned, then it was taken down.
I have emailed him, and asked if I can come back. I am sorry, it was only once and we did not know he would walk by my cam window, it was quick. But rules are rules.
I am still waiting.
And yea, I have seen guys on MFC, but I don't want to seem like a child and cry because I was banned, I have not looked at the site since watching Jenna a couple times working there. We'll see.
Another question. When you sell pic sets and vids on myfreecams, are they available for the members to download, or are they only available for them to watch when they are logged into the site?
WTF? I'm sorry to hear that, Camigirl. A long time ago they suspended a model just because her husband shouted to her from another room "What do you want from McDonald's?" SMH. I read her post about it on another forum where I used to post. It's ridiculous that they'd suspend/ban you ladies over ridiculous shit while some of their other rules are broken by other models on a daily basis on there.
anyone having tech issues tonight? like......the site won't even load for me! it's probably cuz mercury is retrograde right now.
this site is a terrible site i advise u girls not to join it they kicked me off i was trying to login one afternoon and coudnt i emailed them everyday for 2 months then finally gave up so i pretty sure they baned me and the sorry assholes never tell me why. the thing is i didnt nothing to even be banned and they never sent the money i made eaither but i dint expect them to when they kicked me off but they should awnser my emails and tell me why i was banned cause i ahve no idea why i feel like they have me on some kinds block list so they dont get my email i dont know but im sick of emailing them and being ignored
talking about if ur thinking of join this site!!! i warned u
...holy run-on sentence, Batman.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with MFC. Their customer service is pretty hit-and-miss. I genuinely don't want to sound rude, but if your messages to them sounded anything like your post, I'm not surprised you didn't get a response. Generally you do best if your message is short and clear and to the point. MFC doesn't go around randomly banning people (as I hear happens on CB ridiculously often), so I'm assuming there were grounds... even if you didn't break any rules on cam, you can be removed for other infractions (registering with false information, like using a fake location, expired ID, etc.). I'm not saying that these apply to your situation, just that they are possibilities.
I would suggest writing them from another email address, providing the information you registered with (model name and registered email address), and write them a couple of sentences asking why you were banned, if they would consider lifting the ban, and if not how they intend to pay you. I've never heard of MFC withholding payment unless it is under the minimum payout amount (which I believe is $20? Someone correct me if I'm wrong... I know it is higher if you are overseas).
Your experience with MFC has been a-typical and not at all representative of what most of us have experienced. If you are considering joining MFC, please don't get scared off by reading Celeste22's post. Many ladies on this forum (and on MFC in general) make good money on MFC (well, between "a little money" and "ridiculously amazing money"). I've been on MFC a little less than a year and I routinely finish in the top 500, putting in around 50 hours (online-time) a month.
I hope this post doesn't come off as defensive, it just makes me sad to hear people speaking ill of an employer that has been so good for my life, and (perhaps more importantly) has such a good payout percentage for its models.
Yes, joined MFC and don't exactly rock the house there. However, they consistently pay the correct amount (usually a bit more than I expected) on time, direct deposit if you choose for free. As a hater of free chat, I pick MFC as the best of the token sites due to the traffic and the consistent pay. There is no joy in camming if you have to chase down your pay every week.
this may seem unneccessary to mention, but, in another thread, when Celeste22 asked something and someone tried to help, she lashed out at the girl, calling her a stupid whore and that she's never coming back on this site. SOOOOOOOOOO just......consider that as well if you are planning to "take her advice" and such. lulz.
MFC has been good to me, but I'm afraid - after losing my #2 top spending reg and now my #1 reg - it may be time to start fading out MFC and focusing on other things...such as cam sites where I don't have to do free chat...C4S...opening an Etsy store...
Regulars on MFC are extremely important to a model's income, as much as we may hate to admit. It seems fucked up to me that one regular going MIA can be devastating to your earnings, but it's the truth. I know exactly the reason it's happened, and I think it's ridiculous. I did nothing wrong...

That so sucks. You truly have my sympathies. :(
I am trying to focus more on C4S these days and less on camming myself so if you need a 'C4S buddy' just let me know.
I've found that MFC has slowed WAY down for me, and my camscore has dropped dramatically and it has turned into a shitty cycle. I also had several regs (who all have the same bank) have credit cards compromised from some recent shit with banks and card details going somewhere they shouldn't have, and 2 of the 5 now have new cards and are back, but the other 3 have turned into freeloaders after discovering how much they can get for nothing while they had no tokens. Ugh.
I need to make a decision on what I'm gonna do about MFC. A while ago I remember saying that I'm never gonna quit MFC, and that the only way I'd leave MFC is if they banned me. Lol. Well, I'm losing my patience with free chat, my top 2 spenders of all time have abandoned ship, and when the free chat lurky-loos (with 500+ tokens that they refuse to spend on ME...) are just sitting there...I feel like I could be doing other things with my time, such as working on crafts, working on crocheting, etc. If Mark hasn't kicked me off of CamModelDirectory yet for being inactive, I might get back to doing that, and maybe check out loveshooks' new site. :) And really get serious about my Clips4Sale store.
As for MFC, my options are to:
*Cam on there only a couple nights a week, and continue doing the 'log off after 1 hour if it's ridiculously slow' thing.
*Cam on there only a couple nights a week, and stay on for 2-3 hours no matter what.
*Continue camming on there 6 nights a week (and log off after 1 hour if it's ridiculously slow), and have Aug. 1 - Aug. 15 be my last pay period on there...that way, we can celebrate one more birthday. My birthday is August 15.
*Continue camming on there 6 nights a week, and have Dec. 16 - Dec. 31 be my last pay period on there.
stay BrownFox. staaaaayyyyyy.
do the log off after an hour thing. i get it bb.
I really understand how you feel. I feel that way about Streamate right now. I have a lot of people that just stare at me and tell me I'm hot or other stuff. They aren't buying shows and I too feel like I could be doing other stuff. It's hard. Another site full time feels like starting over but I also feel like if I stay I won't be happy. You have to do what you really feels best for you and what makes money for you. NO matter what you know you have my support and I am always around if you need to vent.
I will say indy sites have become pretty damn good and no free chat. Whoo hoo
MFC has been unbelievably bad for me, which sucks because I'm promoting my ass off, and the little I am getting is stuff I'm rustling up on my own. I'm putting the finishing touches on Indy ads and profiles right now, because I'm out of the country next week and when I get back I'm going to continue my current hours on MFC but also be available for Indy at the same time and really put my time and effort into that and clips, because those are working for me right now.
And also having to compete with the whole 'Tips of X tokens get my personal phone number' thing. I remember this one guy who used to tip me well had actually bitched to a model friend of mine about how I don't give out my number because I'm "paranoid." LMAO. It's gonna be kinda nice to get away from the entitled "Now that I've given you a lot of tokens, that'll turn your NO into a YES, right, bb?" mentality that I've seen so much on these free chat sites.
I remember when my friend quit MFC/camming for good to do voice-over work, and one or two guys would ask me about her in my public chat and/or MFC Mail. I believe I said something along the lines of "If she wanted to stay in touch with anyone from here, she would have. Please don't use my free chat to inquire about other models." It's crazy how some people don't appreciate you while you're here, and once you're gone it sinks in. Kinda like friendships/relationships in real life, huh? :)
