To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
I usually have to stay online for several hours to rake in decent cash. I have to wade through the time when my room is slow/empty, or just full of a bunch of freeloaders, then I'll still be online to catch the chunks of time when the tokens are flowing and I'm doing group shows/private. My general rule is "just stay online," even when it's slow, because it's impossible to make money when you're not logged on.
However....spending hours online with no profit DESTROYS my cam score. I've heard some people swear by manipulating the cam score, while others claim it means nothing. I will say that one fact remains: I make more money sitting online and waiting it out than I do by trying to only catch the busy periods.
So ladies, what's your strategy? I'd like to pull a long cam-a-thon but fear for my cam score if I do

I recommend you check out the MFC Thread here. There is a lot of good advice there. :)

Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
Yes, thank you, I've read through quite a bit of the MFC thread. I just wanted to hear more of the personal opinions of different girls and which strategy they opt for, as I feel like this depends on just how concerned you are about your cam score. And the MFC thread discourages from asking questions there so I'd like to have answers to this specific question here if I can :)
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
I think that cam scores are more about camgirls egos. I don't longer care if it goes up or down, as long as I am making money. I prefer to have a lower cam score but a higher bank balance.
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
i'm a MFC girl w crappie camscore! I just stay on for 3 hours and usually by the 3rd hour, i get "new regs" and my daily goals. Usually the first hour, i'm spending it trying to get the room going, and i make between 0-200tk in that hour. But at the end of the night, it evens out and my cs never dropped below 600.. (STILL UNDER 1K but haven't been getting on every single day) If i have gotten on every single day, my cs would be where it should be at .. im all about the money and the rank tbh cuz higher ranking=lots of tokens=lots of money.
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
Side note: I seriously feel like such an idiot I could slap myself. I was getting really frustrated with my lack of traffic, as it seemed even brand spankin new girls were getting decent traffic and were doing nothing different....yeah didn't possibly chalk that up to the fact I've been getting on at 1 am and waiting for it to get busier at like 5 or 6. You know, when the day walkers get up. *face palm* not saying there isn't money to be made in those hours but probably considerably slower rooms, at the very least.
Aaaanyway. I'm just trying to figure out if I should bother worrying about the cam score.

Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
I like MFC all in all. I've tried SM too and didn't care for it. I'm not unhappy with the site as a whole; just still mastering the art of bringing in more people and wondering if I should fuss over the cam score or not
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
I never understood when people said "don't worry about cam score".... cam score goes up or down depending on how much money you make relative to the other performers who are online at the same time. You should care about your cam score because it's a reflection of how much money you're bringing in.
I don't really have any advice either other than try a different token based site.. maybe chaturbate or something? That's the major thing I disliked about MFC was that the more I was online, the lower my cam score went. It's not really feasible to be on there for periods of time without making consistent money because it does tank your cam sore and in turn, your placement. Which just makes it that much harder to make money.
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
You know there are more then two cam sites? Imlive, Chaturbate, AdultWork, ect. Try indy? sign up for cmd, loveshook's site that I cant remember the name, sell clips.
There are so many other sites. That is what is so great about camming.
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
No of course I know that, I was just saying those are the two I've tried. I signed up for livejasmin and haven't used it yet. I have halfway finished applications for a few websites and still haven't gone out to do their ID process blah blah blah. I'm just not ready to toss in the MFC towel yet, and to be honest, I'm not complaining about my money or a lack thereof; I was just questioning my method of staying on for long periods of time, as I watch my cam score go dwindling down and wondered how many girls really care about their cam score. As I said, it seems some of them are determined to keep their score up while others feel it balances out if you stay on until your money starts flowing. Obviously traffic isn't always consistent, so I wondered how many girls dip out until it picks back up and how many wait it out. As of right now, my cam score is fine, but slowly drops if I happen to have a less than spectacular night. But I'm also still experimenting with different camming days/times and other such factors that make a difference

Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
I find that I make more money when I don't think about my camscore. And a great way to not think about it? Remove it from your profile. Never look at it again. Pretend it doesn't exist. Just make your money, and sign off when you are done for the night... not when you think you think it will affect your camscore. There's an option on MFC now that hides it from your profile. I try to stay on for, at least, a couple hours, even if it's slow. The way I figure whether or not my earnings are too low for the time I've put in: My average hourly for the current pay period. As long as that stays above a certain amount, I'm trying not to stress. I know that some nights will suck hard, and others will be amazing. You can't make money if you're not logged in.
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
^^^thats how I feel as well. One thing I know for sure is I'm not going to make anything if I'm not online! Not once have I signed on to a room packed full of tippers, so I don't understand the logic behind signing off and then coming back on when it's busier. The only thing that's worked for me thus far has been sticking it out until I start to pull in cash, and then in the end, once my night recovers, I feel like my cam score recovers too. It may fall when I'm not making money but it bumps back up when I am, as long as I'm averaging a decent hourly wage. Alas, the cam score is a difficult beast to conquer but I'm determined to make MFC my bitch!

I've never understood that either. I'm a single mom (he's 11, but he can be very immature/irresponsible at times), and I don't have the luxury of getting on cam whenever I want for as long as I want. The whole 'Just log off and try again later in a few hours' thing does not work for me. Why? Because "a few hours later" is the time I'm supposed in bed sleeping...before my son wakes up! LOL. MFC was one of those sites where once I've logged off, I would breathe a sigh of relief and was not trying to go back on again the same night for a repeat of the awkward silence/begging/freeloading. Nope. I'd just come back tomorrow night.
People always think that camming on MFC will be smooth sailing and easy money. Lol. Look at those guys who make comments like "Damn, I wish I could get paid to sit on the computer and play with myself all day." *rolls eyes*
Re: To stay on, or not to stay on...MFC question
Ok update: decided to throw caution to the wind, turned off the ability to see my cam score from my profile and stayed on for about 3 hours. It pretty much played out just as I suspected it would. The first hour was VERY slow and no one seemed to be tipping. The second hour picked up a bit, with 2 people being great tippers and I think 1 other guy tipped me on occasion. Started my countdown for 400 topless; both guys contributed graciously to it until that countdown was complete. I also did a bunch of silly things like "50 tokens for topless jumping jacks" and "50 tokens to see me twerk." I even sang a song from frozen for 20 tokens lol anyway so it was an hour of shenanigans and chipping away at my countdown. Third hour, I finally did a show in private for like 800 tokens; that was with one of the guys who tipped me steadily and he'd drained all of his tokens on me, so after my 2 good tippers were gone, I logged off and went to bed. Basically, if I hadn't stayed online and caught the 2 guys who did give me money I probably wouldn't have made diddly so I think I strongly prefer this strategy, rather than relying on my cam score.
