First Night will Be Tonight!
:smiley_smI am excited and nervous all at once. I am using MFC. You know what I am most nervous about...I don't know how the interface looks once you turn on your cam...all I have done so far is set up my profile and settings and have not turned on the cam since I was not ready. I don't want to seem like an idiot when I get on and not know how to do things.
I am not going to do any privates tonight...and maybe not for a few days. I want to get comfortable with free chat and being about to converse with a room full of strangers first. :shy:
I almost have my space set up. I am using our spare room, and cleared everything out of cam view, and I am going to find some fabric or something to cover the walls behind me...I have not painted in that room yet (we moved not long ago) and the walls look dingy. I have a couple of lamps plus the overhead light for lighting right now until I start to make money. I got a "goal" board for me to look at behind the cam, and a cute chalk board to do games with for on cam.
My hubby has an awesome massage table (he went to massage therapy school) that I am going to use for privates once I get to that point.
Any tips from you ladies to kill my nerves the first night. :confused: I think I am going to make a margarita to sip on. :P
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I'm not sure if this advice will help as I have been used to video logging for YouTube for some years, which may have taken the sting out of my nerves, although I'd never flaunted my body "live" to potentially paying clients before, so I abused the crap out of chatroulette and adult chatroulette for a few days before I started camming. Even if you just get down to your underwear on adult chatroulette and flick through people, lingering on some (the guys with their dicks out).
After this, the first times I cammed I was completely chilled and raring to go. :) Might be an idea.
Good luck on your first night! <3

I might try that before I go on tonight. I am going to be non-nude in free chat...but I will be wearing a tight shirt with my bra peeking out and lace undies. I think you hit the nail on the head for me though with the "guys with their dicks out". ;) The part I am having trouble with is knowing that someone on the other side of the cam is doing that. lol. I have been naked in front of guys before (more than one at a time) but they did not have their wang out doing the self-love. That will take some getting used too.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I have nothing useful to say, but GOOD LUCK!
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Oh...and just wanted to run an idea by you more experienced ladies, while I have a thread going.
I have some ideas of shows to do, and as a non-nude I am trying to be creative. :)
I thought that carving a pumpkin (stay with me here...lol) on cam, and letting the highest tipper of the night choose the design. Can be their name...a dirty carving...whatever. I also plan to cook on cam. I have heard of other ladies doing that, but I have not seen it myself. Anyone do this? I love to bake and decorate cakes/cupcakes...

Have you spent much time on MFC to get a feel for what the site is like, and what the guys who are on the site are like and what they expect? I'm not saying you wouldn't make it staying non nude in free chat... but MFC traffic doesn't typically take too kindly to girls sitting in free chat non nude. Unless you are doing A LOT of extremely hot teasing, etc. Or if you have a dynamite personality and a lot of fans.
You want your first impression to be a good one especially on MFC. What you want is for guys to tip you, that is how you are going to make money and how you are going to increase your cam score and thus move up in the ranks. If you are sticking to being non nude in free chat, many guys will just move along to a girl who will show more. I'm definitely not saying that you can't make it on there non nude in free because a lot of girls do, but I think most of them started on there back when MFC wasn't such a beast of freeloaders.
I guess my point is, considering doing topless at least. Maybe do "___ total tokens until I'm topless" or something like that.
Either way, GOOD LUCK!
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Non-nude is a tough niche. It can be done, but it requires so much creativity and you want to make sure you've done your homework before you try to break into it. Being non-nude requires a lot of focus on cultivating a following and promoting yourself as well as being an incredible tease.
We've got some girls here who rock it out so it's definitely doable, just make sure you're prepared to work for it.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I think I have done alot of research so far on non-nude. And I do watch MFC girls alot. :)
I am considering topless...but it won't be for the whole time i'm on there. I plan to bring out my burlesque background and do tease shows, so that is where the topless would play into. I don't want to just sit there with my top off...from what I see the non-nudes (or mostly non-nudes) get alot more tipping than the total nudes. Maybe that is just the girls I watch though.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
To me, persoanlly, there is nothing wrong with topless.. even for free..
There are tons of beaches in the world where women are topless for everyone to see.
Now considering the tons and tons of free porn on the internet, Im still amazed people pay to see me topless lol
Piece of advice... hum... never ever blame yourself if things are not going goood.
Blame it on the rain... ;)
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Thank you Fridays. :) I am getting ready now and wearing my favorite bra and undie set. Always makes me feel pretty. I hope to do well tonight. I will update this after.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Hope you're having a great time!! :D Tell us how it goes! <3
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Just peeked in on you, keep up the good work, it was really hard for me in the beginning but the hard work paid off, just stick with it and you'll do fine!
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Thank you sooooooo much LittleBee.
The first night was fun. Didn't make much to speak of, but I had fun and better yet, didn't run into jerks. I had a couple rude comments, but they just commented and ran. Nothing bad.
Hoping to get a game or something going tomorrow night...I had a bunch of no-token guys in my room, so a game was not really an option tonight...
Danced my butt off...this will be a good way to exercise everyday. lol. My hubby watched from outside the door...lol. He said I did great.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Just a word of advice you don't have to take but, have them tip for dances rather then do them for free. Teasing makes a lot of tokens for me but they have to be tipping for dances/ teasing to continue, or else they will expect you to do it for free and stop tipping.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
That was my plan i stuck with it for over an hour. But no tipping to speak of. When i danced i had more people on the room and got people talking at least. I have to find a happy medium. And some money bag guys. Lol.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I had several people wanting to Skype with me bit i didn't want to tonight. How does that work? Have them pay before obviously.
I wanted to do privates toward the end of the night but i didn'thave any toys ready and was at a loss as to what to do otherwise.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Ahh i see your point just make em tip later on for it, I got tons of people in my room by simply cutting spiderwebs out of paper in pjs lol. I don't offer skype shows simply because I want them to know if they want to take me private mfc is going to be the only place to get it. Then once they get that they will pay & take you private. lol I'm evil xD
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I agree. I think I am really going to try and stick with staying off Skype. Just seems simpler.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Better night tonight. :) Made more than last night...but my camscore dropped anyway.
I am not sure if I should stick to my hours and be regular (I already have several guys staying in my room all night), or if I should get off-line once the tips stop coming in...I hate to be ruled by the camscore. I have people rate/admire as well...doesn't that help at all? I think the whole cam score thing is stupid...
I had one of those men that I have seen mentioned here before...with the army men stomping fetish...wanted me to smash them. lol. I have no army men. Maybe I will get some
Also had an offer to be a financial domme...but then he stopped pming me b/c I wasn't replying fast enough. Sorry I can't type while slapping my ass and dancing for you.
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
Just wanted to warn you that, in my personal experience, MFC is chock FULL of dirty broke ass loser scammers. TURN YOUR PMS OFF, unless you want TONS of nasty guys saying "wanna see my cam bb" "skype show 100 dollars 20 mins?" ALWAYS sends a fake receipt "wanna talk dirty to me bb?" (wants to jack off for free) etc. etc. etc. . .
So yeah. If you have a problem with that too, I highly suggest accepting PMs from friends ONLY, and charging 100 tokens or what not to be your friend. If they are serious and valuable, they will pay the 100 tokens,
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
I have just been ignoring the PMs that are useless (view my cam now....mmmmmmm...talk dirty....mmmmmm). But I don't mind the ones that are actually trying to find out what I do/don't do...since for me saying "anal" (which I don't usually do) would just make me blush like a mad fool in free chat. lol.
I am charging 100 tok to view cams, which is really helping my bottom line. And when they realize I charge to watch them the cheap asses move on...
Re: First Night will Be Tonight!
My suggestion to cut down on the PMs is to do something like "100 tokens to be on my friends list" and then only accept PMs from people on your friends. Otherwise, you will get PMs non stop and it will waste your time.
