Ahh what the heck.... I just took my verification pic, I just need to email it to somebody that can tell me who they are lol and I will send it![]()
I am going to...just give me a couple days.
It's too much work to verify myself.
I don't want you to know who I am h0ttie.
Who cares if we are verified or not? Whats the big deal?
What is this verification thing? did I miss something?
I'm not really a cam girl..I am a creepy man

I'll be taking my verification pic sometime after I shower today >.> Didn't know what the requirements were until today, but I'm a little worried I don't meet the post count req..ahh well guess we'll see later.




I don't have enough posts here to join so I didn't bother.
But I hope you will still post in this forum too otherwise it will become a barren wasteland![]()
I'm glad Annie and Alvida raised another reason why a person who posts here isn't a part of the verified group...I tried to verify, and received a messge back that my post count was too low. I understand and recognize the merit of having a post-prerequisite to joing the private group. if one of the aims is to keep certain info privy to those who have established themselves as contributing members of the cc sw community. Yet that also means that it would be unfair to assume every woman who posts here who remains unverified is a creepy guy, has something to hide, or just can't be bothered sending h0ttie an email.
I'm just a quiet person who listens more than I speak, in any venue, and I'm not about to post a bunch of random musings in the hopes of reaching the post-count threshold. To me, that would disrespect the spirit of what this forum is, at its best.
Oh, and I echo Teenage Annie's 'barren wasteland' concern
Peace y'all, have a wicked day![]()
^Hmm I didnt realize post count was still a requirement? My understanding was that a pic, sign, profile name, profile response was the process.
I been on the site a year - only have ~300 posts and average less than a post a day... so I understand why post count would be a big barrier for some. The iste has also gotten extrmely popular within the past 6months or so which is why there are so many new signups so being able to catch up to veteran status can be chore, which is why I believed it was canceled as a requirement. Just being able to prove being a camgirl (if you claim to be one) would make sense, I believe that that was altered in the thread
I think everyone wants to still participate in the forum - of course - its just that super specific things would be in the group (ie, stuff about your own profile or sites if you're not out, pirating forums, proxies, feeling less restricted in venting, etc). There are precedents (at least for me) for why it is of interest. Ive definitely made some poor decisions on who to trust - as there have been examples of people scrubbing out, being outed, or using someone's profile for their own inexplicable interests. Talking about that here publically could cause the accuser to be banned b/c of the drama that would inevitably follow & I know at least for me Id rather not risk that (even more so since Ive already been warned). Which is why Im so jazzed about this.
So seriously, as many hurdles as that can be lifted to verification: Im positive people are committed and that'd be great
I know Ive been a big trumpter for this - and I now see BA & BB's points - so I hope my enthusiasm hasnt made people looking to be super-anonymous uncomfortable or feel as if there is an us/them dichotomy. Ill work on it - but I just - this is so overdue & given how some of the top suspected socks/trolls are retreating makes me feel better that ideally less people will be taken advantage of.
So if hurdles can be lifted, let's do it


I agree with Loveshooks mostly. At first I figured whats the point? Im not a vet, Im a newbie... etc. So in essence, the process may be intimidating, exclusive or seemingly pointless to some of us. Might I add that as a new cam girl attempting to establish myself and get get grounded in this business, I am also attempting to establish a network of like minded women to align myself with. In doing so I would be easily identified and recognized by other working women as we help one another grow our businesses. I have began following some of you ladies on twitter etc and hope through those venues you guys would get to know me a bit and Id also be "verified." Just my POV....




i think angelcummings was the only person i've told my cam name to (and she's told me hers) before this. maybe i told camwhore when i joined one of her referral sites, can't recall. luxi_kitty found me on cam as well (i think after i posted rl pics).
i decided to get verified because it's so easy, i'm not super paranoid about letting people know who i am (i just prefer not to put it all over the boards and my posts), and i wanted to be a part of the private group because i've found it helpful and enjoy posting there.
i have reservations about verification because i don't want it to become a clique (and i have major reservations about having it in my signature, i may take it out) or some sort of thing where people assume shit about those who aren't verified, but then again - hello. this board has a history of cattiness and drama so that's probably bound to happen regardless. i also know verification isn't foolproof. i do find it a bit uncomfy that hottie and roast aren't willing to verify themselves to us, but i respect their privacy and have always gotten a good vibe from their posts. it's a much more comfortable situation to me than when i was involved in verification at cgn and although i did know the real life identity of the main person doing it, i didn't trust him at all. so it may not be perfect, but it works, and it's easy - i might as well do it.


Also, Id like to thank Roast EVERY link you added to your siggy was a must read. And that reiterates the value of SW for me. The things you all have thought me about safety, avoiding scams and pimps and staying positive are priceless! Thanks again and I will be verifying.![]()


I actually wasn't bothering cause I thought my post count's kinda low *blushes*
So I'm on the "will take a piccie after makeup" group.
Procrastinators unite! Tomorrow? Maybe? Who cares?
Can someone tell me how to get verified? I just signed up for this forum an hour ago. Thank you!![]()
Hopefully I'll get around to doing this. Between changing my SM name and uploading all my documents needed for cams.com, I'm feeling really bogged down in all these verification processes...
My post count isn't particularly high (I'm sort of new and on the quiet side... don't like to post generally unless I've got something useful to say.) Anyhow, I did still get verified. If I recall correctly, I think the newer criteria now is an unspecified # of posts as well as the content of the posts. I think the specifics are being kept secret so people don't post simply to meet the criteria. (Please correct me if I am wrong about that.)
Anyhow, I just want to put out there that a low post count specifically may not be a barrier, and if this is the only thing stopping someone from verification, please don't let it.
Also, I hate cliques and I certainly didn't get verified in order to join one. I just like there being a safer space to share outside of the possible prying eyes of cam customers and to share things about camming with peers. I feel a lot more comfortable and also enjoy the camaraderie because, face it, this work can feel lonely and isolating sometimes.
I think it's important though to respect that a cam performer may have personal reasons to choose not to be verified and to avoid casting aspersions on anyone based on that reason alone.
I get the need to be cautious, and I am too, but we have to deal with enough judgement about our choices in the rest of the world, don't you think?




my pic looked totally awful (no makeup - i don't wear it when i'm not working, just woke up, inbuilt cam cuz the logitech wasn't hooked up) and hottie didn't make fun of me, heheso i wouldn't worry too much about looks when it comes to verification.
@sweetsam - http://forum.stripperweb.com/showpos...33&postcount=1 has the instructions. i'm not sure whether there is still a post count requirement.
re post count requirement - there are some members who have fewer posts here (like kballar and loveshooks) who i see around enough that it wouldn't bother me personally if they were added to the private group/alllowed to verify. i get why some folks do want a post count requirement (and i like that we are encouraging having made contributions to the community/connecting to the community through posting). but also - i am sort of of the mind that if i recognize you and your personality and remember reading your posts, if i feel like i've seen you around and you are a contributor, the number itself doesn't really matter. i have a fairly high post count here (and i've been camming for over a year) but usually on message boards i'm one of the quieter people because i don't post unless i really have something to say. so i feel what teenageannie was saying on that tip. jmho.
on the other hand, if lurky-loos get verified and join the private group and, like, never post, that would make me uncomfortable. i like to know people are still alive and contributing. but i don't think a high post count is absolutely necessary for that.
re cam girl successfulness/earnings - what lachloe was mentioning earlier - lol! y'all probably know from my infrequent posts on the earnings thread that i make peanuts next to what some girls here make and i'm pretty up front about that, hehehehei don't see any reason to lie about it and say i'm more successful than i am - but then again, if y'all think badly of me because i'm not the most successful camgirl, i really don't give a fuck. (although i will say the earnings threads are a big motivator for me to do better!)
I have been going back and forth w/ the whole verification thing. I feel like i have said way too much in confidence that no one knows who i am to really out myself. There are a handful of girls on here who actually know who i am. I am verified on another forum where i can talk about camming and all that just like here. So to me i've decided just to keep this like my personal forum and say what's goin on in my life w/ out ppl knowing who i am. And if that means missing out on the group then so be it. hope this makes sense..i can't seem to put it all in to words today lol


I did it! With almost no procrastination... will take my temperature now, something's amiss here...


About post count...
that was "put in place" just so that there is not a bunch of girls that have contributed absolutely nothing gaining valuable info. For example if we want to talk about what sites we earn the most on privately I don't like the idea of letting a girl who has only posted 3 times know that.
I did tell "loveshooks" that her post count was too low..but I have since had a chance to realize her posts are quality and have pmed her asking her to join us.
I didn't originally want to mention the number of posts required to join earlier on however I will here for now. I set the number at 50 posts but that number can totally be waved as long as your posts are quality!![]()
"Achieving success is a challenge but so is struggling so you may as well choose success."
I totally understand the not wanting to verify yourself to avoid drama because trust me..thats a big part of the reason I don't want to verify myself to everyone. If 50 people know who I am and I get harassed by someone some where well I have no idea who that person is!
But the thing is..only one person will know who you are. Me...and I am drama free! also...you have to realize I have verified so many girls already that I don't remember who is who.
"Achieving success is a challenge but so is struggling so you may as well choose success."



I'm new to forum, but definitely not new to camming. I think I'm just gonna look around for a few days before verifying. I totally support your want to verify girls! I also agree that "camming connection" should be a private forum for camgirls verified only.
I looove AmberCutie's forum because of the "models only" section. I hope to see one around in the future. That would be really sweet. I look forward to getting to know you guys because this does seem like a very very helpful, support forums for girls in the industry.
<3
I don't think this was answered, but who all will know our cam persona? Everyone? Or just you, hottie? Sorry if you already answered and I skipped it somehow.
Also I am curious why the admins of this site are not doing this? Why do we have to be so trusting to other cam models, who are not mods, or the owner of this site. There is another forum where I sent my pic and cam link to, and I felt comfortable doing that, because it just felt more comfortable. But this is the most dramatic forum I belong to, out of about 4 that I have joined, and quite frankly, it is mainly due to other models, not customers.
Some people here are not wanting everyone to know who they are, not because of the negative stuff that was said earlier today, but because we do not trust everyone, and rightfully so. Why should I trust people I don't know, who do not run this site?
I just really need to know more, and why is it that the owner here is not conducting this process. Sorry, but I think more, before I act. And please I don't need anyone jumping in saying I must be suspect because I question this lol. After what was said earlier, I was also thinking this is more clique than not.
Taking a break from all unproductive shit will prove to be the best choice you can make.


Hmmm... Yes you are drama free in all posts I've seenMaybe I'll let my guard down a bit and go for it. It's a little egocentric for me to think that you'll even be remembering each individual anyhow. I may do it later, but my 15 minute cam-work break is over for now, lol.
Thx for clarifying![]()

At this point, I'm really on the fence about this whole thing.
I mean, I'll probably verify for one reason and one reason only, and that is because I have a board with verification on CGU, and so I would be hypocritical to stick to my guns as far as the ethics and ideas behind verification itself.
So, as of today, while I am still UN-Verified, I want to answer WHY I am at this MOMENT, un-verified.
First reason, because I am very very anonymous and there are pretty good reasons for it. If my identity, even my cam-identity becomes common knowledge, I would ASSUME that MFC will kick me the fuck off so fast it will make my head spin...and I make quite a bit of my income there. On top of which I have real family reasons for maintaining a super-anonymous posture.
My point here is that: Am I beyond all shadow of a doubt, to the point where I am willing to risk actual harm to myself, SURE that anyone I ever verify to will never ever under any circumstances share anything I send them with any other human being? I very much don't want people that I am uncomfortable with to have any of my personal info.
Lastly, I think of it this way....Who the fuck am **I** that you should be verifying to me?? And MANY of you did. I have kept that trust and always will, and I only created the Camgirls Only forums because I was asked to do so. But how the hell do you KNOW that? I mean, who on here that are regular users are accountable enough that they should be trusted to this position. I mean, I own a forum, and if you want to be on the forum as a verified camgirl, you do the verification. Right? But at least I'm somewhat accountable. If I out you and cause you problems you can sue me, and get my domain records...because I own CGU...
How accountable are the normal users here?
I have specifically offered to every moderator, in fact hopefully kaia will pipe up here, almost begged her, to verify me. Because she is someone accountable. She is someone who has a position which says she will keep my info absolutely secret.
So, overall, I will verify because I *have* verified. But I find it intrusive, of less value than it is onerous and problematic, and generally think you'll have guys in the club and on your yahoo thing and so on, and you won't be careful, because you'll have a false sense of security.
Let's see how it all works out...But for my money...asking Pryce to close this forum so that ONLY registered people can read it is still a great idea...even if you keep the girls club.
