It's been a gradual process. I'm actually on this forum a lot more lately than I've been on any cam sites.

Well that's a good thing! ACF is healthy for ya. You'll learn a lot from this forum.
*laughs in specialize in middle east history for at least 20minutes*Apparently Russian citizens can still travel there. Turkey is the friendliest of the NATO countries toward Russia, even a year into the invasion. I don't think Turkey has gone along with most sanctions and I know that it hasn't cancelled flights.
Why? Just curious.
Blocking is really binary, how can you partially block someone? It really feels like you're deliberately dragging this process out (and the thread with it) for some reason.She's already partially blocked
SC certainly forbids real life meet-ups and off-site payments. (There is NO grey area from them in this)Obviously I'm learning a lot here and I knew nothing about this industry previously. There seems to be some percentage of models and members (I have no idea if it's a small minority or maybe it's a sizeable proportion) who think that meeting up with dates and even potential life partners on the sites is perfectly fine. Do the sites have any position about this one way or another, or do they not care so long as they keep making money? And is there any particular reason why the sites (or models in general) would be opposed to this?
...well that depends on what threads he is reading. There are some pretty f****d up stuff to read and mindblowing lol., but I guess all in all, yes it is better
Then don't. If that's the last thing holding you back from cutting her off completely then forget about reporting her to the sites.EDIT: What I'm really struggling with it the reporting to the sites. That's my dilemma at the moment.
Yes, but unfortunately for all of us involved, 85% of the world live within patriarchal societies.
Another great image.
So do some studios. I once tried to give a model my Telegram username. (She was leaving the next day for a month to undergo surgery. I just wanted her to let me know how things went) The result was catastrophic. Her studio almost fined her, and I was almost banned. She basically begged her admins not to carry through and promised them she would never call me. That was just a member offering personal info to a model. Interestingly, all her admins are female, and at this particular studio, they are strict, but actually look after the model's safety. I am sure being in Russia has something to do with that too.SC certainly forbids real life meet-ups and off-site payments. (There is NO grey area from them in this)

Well obviously because in those scenarios they (SC) are *not* getting their cut even though they have been the conduit for the initial meeting / transactions.

I really can’t answer your questions about that. I am of the same opinion I have always been of, That cam sites should never be used for dating sites.Obviously I'm learning a lot here and I knew nothing about this industry previously.

I'm asking because when I was reading TOS's recently, they vary a lot. Some sites appear to be super strict about everything. Other sites seem to say, "It's not our business." I think it was Charturbate that basically says, "If you meet anybody offsite, take precautions and we won't get involved in any dispute or bear any liability." Other sites (LiveJasmin, maybe?) seem to have TOS's that say they'll ban a model if they find out.
My experiences and reading opinions here has gotten me interested in this business.
I should have clarified: She's blocked on the ways we normally communicated. Where she isn't blocked is on a couple of sites where we did have a little interaction in the past (but where I haven't been in a long while). So theoretically, she could send a DM there or something.Blocking is really binary, how can you partially block someone? It really feels like you're deliberately dragging this process out (and the thread with it) for some reason.
There is also considerable risk to the model in both meeting up, and providing account details (real name, address, phone number etc) for off-site payments.SC certainly forbids real life meet-ups and off-site payments. (There is NO grey area from them in this)

So you were almost banned by the particular cam site? I'm assuming that the studio can only take action against the model.Her studio almost fined her, and I was almost banned.
This.But I guess the issue would be that we met and originally interacted on the sites, though?
You are correct, the studio can only take action against the model, but the studio can instruct the model to ban any user on any of the sites she streams on. (In my friend's case, five). So effectively, it is being banned by the studio. In terms of off-site platforms, like Skype, the studio has no jurisdiction, but I could see them threatening to terminate the contract of a model for such conduct. There is very likely a provision for conduct on off-site platforms written into her contract.So you were almost banned by the particular cam site? I'm assuming that the studio can only take action against the model.
It sounds like I'll be "self-confessing" to a lot in this situation. It takes two to tango. She set up a private account and sent me numbers; I was sending money to it. She gave me her passport and other info. Most of the conversations about money moving around and meeting up are in Skype, but there were some references even in PMs on sites. Especially on StripChat and a bit on LiveJasmin.
My question, though, is if we talked about this stuff initially on a site (say StripChat) but then took the conversation to an offsite messaging system like Skype, does that then exempt everyone to whatever happened after that point? It's just two people talking on personal Skype account... But I guess the issue would be that we met and originally interacted on the sites, though?
I'd imagine that once it moves to Skype then that's an agreement between two individuals. I'm not a legal eagle but I'm assuming that a cam site wouldn't:-My question, though, is if we talked about this stuff initially on a site (say StripChat) but then took the conversation to an offsite messaging system like Skype, does that then exempt everyone to whatever happened after that point?

there is a discord that is ran by a psychiatrist who helps mainly those with jobs that are seen as taboo or I think criminals too. But my point is, he might be a good resource for you at least to run your story by. He does not give medical advice or diagnose unless you go into his office but I was referred to him after a porn career meltdown i had. The guy is good at what he does and over chat it makes it a lot easier to open up and he let you set the pace of the discussion.hey george have you thought about speaking with a therapist about this? i understand this is probably really heavy on your conscious. a therapist is a great person to speak with during stressful times to get through your thoughts and decision-making.
