    Default pain-in-the-ass registrations

    What are your major pet peeves when signing up with another site? Mine are:


    1.) networks- I get so sick and tired of most of these camsites who do not allow you to sign up with an individual site by itself w/o being lead to either a studio/ model agency and being pulled into a stupid network. Why do I have work with B,C,D,E,F all the way to Z when I only want A?


    2.) documents- I don't understand in this day and age with all the advanced technology these sites have yet to figure out a method to send everything electronically. In order to complete the process you have to download, print, sign, upload, and then submit the necessary info. It's such a hassle b/c not every one has access to a printer (not in my case). On top of that, the words are oftentimes too fine and it's extremely difficult even with camera equipment to satisfactorily increase the font size so that it's all legible.

    It's a little time consuming, but worth it. My hardest sign up was adultwork. I had actually given up until this really nice girl helped me get started.

    No printer and no scanner = big pain in the ass. It took me forever to get on Streamate. I especially hate verification pics. I can never get my I.D to show up clearly or fit my whole damn head in the pic...so frustrating.

    Getting started with iFriends was aggravating as shit. Never in my life have I come across a cam site that required you to do THAT much stuff. The age verification photos they make you take (pic of your face...pic of your torso...etc.)...and this and that. And just when you thought you completed everything, they inform you that there's still "one more thing" that needs to be done. I ended up getting paid weeks after when I should've been paid, cuz they kept telling me via e-mail that such and such still needed to get done. I even had to mail in some document to their Florida address. I was like why the hell can't I just fax it to them? It said it had to be mailed in. *smh* And in the bio section of your profile, they ask you your whole life story...tons of questions, and a lot of those questions are a bit silly.

    I was just going to say that ladies. I signed up with Ifriends on Sunday and thought I could start working tonight and it was so confusing. Then, I find out that they want paper documents. I don't have the time or money to do that. Ick!!

    So I am looking at Imlive, myfeecams, and webcams.com.

    I signed up with imlive, but the registration process stressed me out because they couldn't read my ID clearly. I have since had it scanned just in case.

    Do you ladies have any suggestions? I just want to work so that I can make money, I have bills to pay.

    Thanks,

    When I think of all of the cam sites I've registered with, the registration process with IFriends was the worst. And the very specific age verification photos they have you take...wtf?

    Not only that, but when I THOUGHT I was done with all of that stuff, I got down to business and got on cam to work. Then when it was time for me to get paid, I was informed that I had to fill out some other document, print it out, and mail it (like, actually place it in the mailbox) to their Florida address.

    Too much headache for a site that only pays 35%. I quit just recently.

    I love AdultWork and MyFreeCams. I'm on Webcams.com too, though I'm usually just sitting on there for a long-ass time before I even get a private show.

    Yes, I can relate! &, I have neither a printer or scanner. When I signed up for one co., it took two trips to the library (they had scanner probs., + they only have TWO as opposed to what, like 50 computers)? The scanner probs. meant I spent over TWO HOURS there, with the tech helping, as opposed to like 20 min.
    MFC = forget it, I thought I was signed up, then I don't even remember they told me to do something else, I mean they've Wikepedia to explain it?
    I'm going to try AW one of these days, that sweetie Princess Jen helped me w/some stuff about it.
    Reminds me of a movie, Steve Martin gets stopped by foreign cops, they tell him, jump up & down on one foot while singing the magda larna carta or something, "boy, your drunk driving tests are hard"!

    Yup, when I was without my laptop (it was being repaired), I had to take a bus to Kinko's and spend money to use their computer and printer, just for some shit I had to do for Ifriends. And I had to send the document in the regular mail...IFriends didn't say anything about faxing it over...it HAD to be sent in the mail.

    Don't you girls realize that wal-mart has scanner,copier,printers for thirty dollars with ink. I had just moved when I signed up to cam and had nothing. I ordered my webcam and bought a printer. It makes life a lot easier.

    The worst part about registering? How fucking excited you are to work a new website and you come to find later that it sucks! *cough* IFRIENDS *cough*

    Yeah, but the scanner/copier/printer won't do you any good when your computer is being repaired.

    And the public library isn't an option when the library doesn't allow viewing adult sites...haha.

    All I know is if I ever have to go without my laptop ever again, I will do what I did last time and rent one from Rent-A-Center.

    [email protected] IFriends comment...AMEN!

    I was actually considering filling out that long-ass About Me section...you know, the one where they have like 200 questions about your childhood, your interests, etc. I'm glad I never bothered with that...I quit IFriends recently...lol.

    I agree with the documents and stuff being a complete hassle. It would be nice if the sites would use that "online signature signing software" that some companies use to take out the paper work process...that would be nice...


    I lived near campus when I had to sign up for sites that required it so the process wasn't horrible but just inconvenient with the traveling back and forth.

    Thank goodness adultwork didn't require paper work even though the process was a bit lengthy for me.

    I second, going to walmart and getting an affordable all in one printer/scanner/copier/and fax machine for a reasonable price..It will help a lot in the long run. =)

    I totally agree with the registration process being a little crazy. What I dont really get is why you can download the paperwork for SM in .pdf format, but if you fill the info out on the computer it wont allow you to save it. I thought I could just type in the info (I have terrible hand writing) to get around the whole printing/scanning thing but apparently not. Honestly I think the whole thing is a waste of paper since your just taking the forms 2 feet to the scanner, but thats just me.

    Signup with MyFreeCams is so easy I had thought it was too good to be true. LOL. MFC doesn't even make you print out any forms or anything like that. From what I remember, all you do is download the software, upload your ID, choose an available screen name, and fill out your model profile.

    Revisting this, I just now signed up w/mfc. They said they were sending stuff to my spam email folder, which is NOT the case. However, it went thru (i guess) they gave me a couple messages about what to do if I don't hear back w/in 2 days, then if not at all..so we'll see, I'd like to give 'em a tray.

    AW also had super easy registration. God I love when sites realize it's the digital age. I am SO not about the "print, sign, scan".

    Heee! Glad to help.

    At first I thought it was just because y'all don't like cropping the file after- it is sometimes a pain, but no worse than going out.

    I keep my ID pic and a scanned pic of my signature on my computer (encrypted). For any forms requiring my signature I just download them, open them in photoshop and use the text tool to fill out the forms then insert my signature pic in the appropriate spot, save as a file then upload or fax it. Much less hassle than printing and scanning.
