Well, I wouldn't describe myself as "king" of the room but I am a regular in one model's room and certainly one of her top tippers.Matt255 said:1. How much did you spend to make you king/queen of their room?
I do tip my favorite model pretty well. At least a thousand tokens per week, easily. But there are several other factors in making me one of her important regulars:
- I'm in her room most of the time whenever she's online.
- I do my best to keep the conversation going, but without monopolizing her time.
- I don't make demands and I don't act like I'm in charge. (Among other things, that means not telling other guys how to act. It's not my room, after all.)
- I respect her as a person, and don't treat her like a plaything. We've become friends and act accordingly.
- I'm there for her if she needs someone to talk to whenever something's not going well, either on MFC or in real life.
No. (a) she doesn't do that, and (b) that would likely end up a bit weird and awkward. Meeting her is not high on my list of priorities. Being a supportive friend is.2. Have you ever met said in person in real life through a raffle or at a convention?
I suppose I could imagine that we might meet someday but I'd have to know her (and her husband, preferably) a lot better first.
Oh, and she's certainly no goddess. (Weird topic title!)
Nope. She was on MFC for nearly a year before I was. I found her room about a week or so after I started using MFC and became one of her regulars about a month later.3.Have you been with the model since day 1?
While that question was inteded for models, I have a response anyway.2. Do they bring in new tippers are scare them off?
I sometimes help bring in tippers by keeping conversation going and through tipping occasionally, but I know I can also intimidate some guys when I give her big tips and if I were to let myself monopolize the conversation, that might drive guys away, too. So I have to walk a fine line when it comes to both tipping and talking. I have to judge the character of the room carefully, as it can change quickly, and also I have to respect the model's wishes if she PMs me to tell me to back off because I'm dominating the conversation or doing something else to drive people away.
Sometimes large tips can intimidate guys so they don't tip. Large tips can also make people feel like they don't need to tip, because after all, the model just got a big tip, right? So I'm more careful now about how often I leave really big tips (at least when it comes to tips visible to the room).
At the same time, a constant stream of smaller tips can be annoying, so I don't do that either unless someone else has tried to start a yellow wall, at which point keeping it going can encourage more tips from other guys. Sometimes I do tip matching, to try to get other guys to tip. That doesn't always work, but often it does.
Sometimes it can feel like a lot of work playing the role of dependable regular. Some of my fellow regulars avoid the room at times or at least avoid talking if they can't handle it that particular day. (One of them tends to lash out at guests and basics or sometimes even other premiums when he's in a bad mood, so he avoids saying anything at all on those days. Another feels guilty when he doesn't have tokens to spend and will stop showing up if he must go too long without tipping, even though the model is fine with him not tipping every day.)
Occasionally we regulars have had little chats with each other (either via PM or even just in the chat room when the model's gone for the day) to make sure we're on the same page when it comes to how to best encourage tips, avoid scaring people off, and generally make life easier for the model.
We're not an exclusive club; we always like to see more guys join our ranks. But few manage to do so for more than a few weeks.
