    Mz Star where did you see that? I checked Twitter, the site/Asian homepage and my model admin homepage for that updated and haven't seen it.

    i've always found the fact that they even have a separate asian homepage to be pretty racist and classist. but what does this mean? they're no longer accepting girls from asian studios at all? that's kind of nuts.

    Sorry I dont think I understand - so only Asian models who have a camscore of 2000+ will remain on MFC?

    If you google the text MStar posted the source pops up, but that source doesn't have a link either

    It could be they're trying to avoid participating in sex trafficking/credit card scams, both of which are huge problems in Southeast Asia. But if that's the case, then keeping the girls who are proven moneymakers is pretty underhanded.

    I don't see any information about this on MFC in the updates section. I would say if they were doing it it's because of issues with sex trafficking, and or getting payments to them.

    MFC isn't going anywhere. They are one of the top cam sites.

    MFC isn't in trouble no, but I think this has something to do with what Melony was talking about --- bandwidth.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say they aren't making tons. I just checked and the first few models only have about 80-150 people in the room. On the regular homepage the top models easily have hundreds in their room.

    MFC is trying to go HD and I'm assuming they need more bandwidth to support it so I guess they are going to cut the asian homepage. I heard in the lounge that was going to happen but I haven't seen any notes anywhere about it.

    I definitely don't think it's racist, but I mean if those girls aren't making as much as the regular models & are just taking up needed space then something has to be done.

    It could very well just be me, but I could swear I'm noticing more and more technical problems lately on mfc... like they weren't being able to handle more than x peeps in the room. And if we couple that with 95% percent being non-paying custies, I get the feeling that's why the other page's being shut.
    Really REALLY wish they'd solve it by enforcing a number of minutes freeview without making an account on the site - since that would solve more than 1 problem .

    I haven't seen this anywhere official but the other night I do recall someone telling me the lounge was freaking out because the asian homepage is closing..I was very "...and?" about it. I never understood why there was a separate page anyways.

    I have to admit to me its more of a "this makes my gears turn because I want to understand the reasons behind it" rather than actual concern for the page model's (someday I'll afford to not be a competitive bitch, but not today)

    I still do hope they get a fair chance at applying for the regular page though... and brownie points if they shed shady studios in the process.

    I don't think MFC cares about trafficking. It has got to be a credit card, roi, and bandwidth issue on their Asian site, so they're closing it... but the rationale behind why that'd impact an entire demographic's participation on MFC proper is what does not compute.

    But hey, didn't Melonie predict this in another thread - sites shutting down models that don't perform (if that is the reason) to save on bandwidth. Nostra-cam-dus

    Then why not apply the rule to all models there are plenty of girls with empty rooms from other countries, too? So perhaps the rule needs to go site wide. I would say it's about sex trafficking but the cam score requirement rules that out.

    Probably because it's not worth the cost to run the asian site. I mean they have a business to run, and if they aren't making money...then it's their decision.

    well i dont know but i have heard about all kinds of stuff like ...MFC had false ID's and minors in the Asian Homepage......been cleaning that area up.....froze Asian sign ups.....then the number has fallen to like only 100 - 200 models ......so it get trashed...

    But from my experience when sites grow they are kool
    And when they shrink or contract ....Its going to die in 2 years....

    They were talking about this on the other forum I post on. I've always thought it was strange that they have a separate homepage for the Asian models. I was like 'why not just have them on the regular homepage with the rest of us?'

    MFC and all their so-called "improvements to the site." They wanna do something for their bandwidth? They need to stop letting guests and basics stay logged into public chat for hours at a time. LOL. Limit those NON-paying guys to __ minutes in public chat before automatically getting booted.

    I haven't heard anything about this, but I'm pretty sure its not racist....Most websites (not just camsites) have separate pages for different countries (amazon uk vs us vs canada site, anyone?) - its just a practicality, and nothing to do with racism..there ARE asian girls on the mainsite too.

    If they are shutting it down, I'm guessing that its because its not doing as well as the main site, and they are just going to transfer the highest earners. I couldn't say for sure, but I would assume that they could still apply to the main site after.

    And I definitely don't think that it is a sign of the company going under - every company that grows will at some point shut down whichever part of their operations aren't making them money - that allows the money they were spending to be channeled elsewhere.

    I've heard they were shutting it down due to a lot of fraud going on with the actual girls. By that i mean a lot of them were using other legal girls ID's to get started, turns out a lot of the girls are underage/ trafficked. Now I'm not 100% sure about this but if this is the case it would be a very valid reason for them to shut it down. They already shut down the asain premium lounge so it's a matter of time that they shut down the actual homepage. Under-aged girls on cam is a very big problem if this is occurring.

    it's hella racist. ever notice how they only do this for asian girls? even eastern european studio girls aren't ghettoized on mfc the way asian girls are.

    p.s. asia's not a country.

    i agree wholeheartedly with hidarlin & thebrownfox. if this is about bandwidth...there are other ways to fix the bandwidth problem (that might actually lead to guys spending more money). and it's shady as hell that if it IS about bandwidth, they're only selectively applying the rule.

    if it's really about trafficking i could actually sympathize with that reasoning - although i doubt it, considering the major camsites profit off of trafficking and none of them have shown a lot of concern about it before. and again...why apply it so selectively?

    my 'crystal ball' says that this is only a first step / 'trial balloon' ... that was made fairly easy to implement by the fact that MFC operates separate Asian servers. Now MFC can sit back, watch the results both financial and personnel related, crunch the numbers, and decide what they might want to do next in regard to their European and/or American servers.

    Yes there are other ways to fix the bandwidth problem ... but they all require heavy capital investment ... investment that must be justified by increased future profits. If the Asian 'sector' isn't making enough sales to cover the operating costs they create under current conditions, there's no logical reason to assume that investing in major bandwidth improvements is going to be matched by even more major increases in sales revenues necessary to pay for said improvements. Instead, it's speculated that MFC made a cold, calculated business decision to 'cut their losses' on an 'underproducing' sector of business operation.

    All business is cold and calculating.

    Shows that their business models isn't currently working if they are shutting down a sector.

    They are in the business of making a profit, all companies are no matter what services they provide.

    Accidently watched the 700 club the other night. FCC wants control over the internet to police it.

    Lol - yes, I am aware that asia is not technically a country. It is a geographic region, and as Melonie pointed out, it is a region that is very easy to separate, and one that has a fairly specific set of problems related to camming.

    And I need to point out that if you are an Asian girl, you are not required to be on the Asian homepage - most of the American-asian girls are on the main MFC page. If they were actually segregating based on race, then it would be racist. They are segregating based on geographic location.

    Not saying that it is right, or appropriate - I don't think that there is any reason to separate the site into multiple ones other than for bandwidth reasons....just saying that I just don't think its racist - just a test market for a spin-off site. I'm pretty sure that their only intention is to make money....

    Just to point out, a company shedding extra baggage that is not earning does not mean they are soon to be gone totally. Do you know how many off-shoots Disney has let go of over the years? I don't think they are going anywhere. Lol.

    Probably was a waste of bandwidth and not making enough. Their rooms never seemed full like the main sites top earners.
