I haven't been camming for a long time at all but the one thing I've been trying to learn to optimize my time and patience is try to identify a possible costumer between the heap of time wasters that get on your PM box or chat (especially on MFC!)
Personally I've been compiling a mental list of dead giveaways for guys just trying to bust a nut through chat or trying to rip you off for any free cam time. Some are really obvious, some took me a lil to catch onto. Now I sort of have a 5 line rule - if it didn't get to booking a private or tipping me in 5 lines, I'll ask straightforward to be taken private, this either makes it or breaks it, but it either makes me money or it saves me time.
(Hardly) ever got anything from anyone using the lines of:
-Show this and I'll pay that
-Heavy talk about their fantasy (guys wanting an actual private will just ask if you're into doing it speedily so if you say no, they can move onto spending money on the right match for them; the rest just want to bust a nut from your detailed explanation)
-So what do you do in private? (paying custies tend to tell you what they want)
-Do you like big cocks?
-Want to see my cam? (cock is not currency)
-Any attempt to slip you their contact info, they're just looking for free chat out of the site...
-Any talk about meeting up (seriously this is my favorite, so you'll fly me wherever and pay for my shopping trips, but you can't tip me 5 bucks out of good will? Wouldn't want to be your local prostitute, cheapskate...)
-Smooth talkers. You're too good looking/smart/sweet to be doing this (oh? I'm always so tempted to answer well, you're too broke to be wasting your time with me then...I'm working - you could try and do the same!)
-Skype show requests. Here I have a 50/50 split. Some custies have an actual reason to request a show out of the site (they want a couple, they want a time block, they want something unusual). The others though, wants to pay unreasonable rates. Now I list my time block discounts upfront because when I was a newbie, it was heartbreaking to spend a long time setting it up only to find they wanted to pay a ridiculous fraction of my site rate.
Of course seasoned camgirls are going "well duh!" at this list, but other newbies like me should take it to heart - don't stress yourself trying to make the unworkables work out for you![]()
