Nobody here is evil enough to do it, especially because we know it would work and put an innocent cam model at risk of losing their job.
You mean "the incredible Chaturbate community"?
Forged ID documents can be so convincing that even law enforcement officials find an up-close inspection in person is often the only way to spot a fake. I don't know what the answer is, when that's clearly not possible as a means of verifying ID on a global business, but sending a photo is never going to be an iron-clad guarantee. But from a potential litigation point of view, I would think the current process covers off the 'reasonable steps to confirm ID' requirement.
I am saying there is something wrong with the initial process if they believe that an account owner who has already submitted any requested documentation, and has started streaming, then requires further/re-verification based on a member report.
Absolutely, you can broadcast on CB without being age-verified, as I found out myself 6 months ago: The requirement for being verified is if your account wants to accept tokens. To me, that is ludicrous - like, it's OK to potentially facilitate a minor broadcasting via your platform, as long as it's not financially motivated????
It's not off topic in my opninion, because it's exactly what we are discussing here; the seemingly random, mysterious and sometimes unfair treatment Chaturbate support give models. However much they pat themselves on the back internally, it still appears strange when viewed from the outside.
Just seeking to clarify, the rule is that "Performing while intoxicated, whether from alcohol or drugs (prescription, legal or illegal), is strictly prohibited".
The thing is, I'm being blocked as a minor. Although I was born in 1988. And popular girls who openly drink beer don't block them from vodka?! What is the point of supporting the site and in general any rules ?! Models also openly ask to transfer money in PM to PAYPAL, although this is also prohibited!
Appreciate the response. Also that you don't want to get into a back-forth discussion. But can I ask about the above statement, as it seems to me to be one of the harshest stances, unless I've misunderstood.
I think the most important one that seems to have been ignored is to improve the amount of information and communication given to users and broadcasters that are hit with a sudden ban. And to clear up the "limbo period" between when someone is verified and the first time they stream after that.
I don't think they ban in an overt token grab- I think they ban because they dgaf about models and the business they've built- cya is all they care about. That said, the net result is that they are banning many people for little or no reason and that IS enriching them in an illegal manner. All contracts have an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. This means that the bans have to be for legit reasons and CB must have belief that their banning process meets this standard. CB knows it does not. Thus they are not only in violation of this covenant, but they know they are receiving monetary gain while doing so.
Yeah
Except none of this is true. I've seen a 23 year old banned for looking "too young" after streaming for a year while, at the same time, they have no problem when girls name their room 'high school girl' with #daddy hashtags and 'role play'- EXACTLY what they say is forbidden. So go ahead and try to square that circle.
Plenty of threads here in the CB support section about broadcasters needing to upload latest ID.
One of the repeated complains that I think you might wish to try and fix is the poor communication with regards to bans. It seems a lot of people get ban notices and have no way of working out what they did wrong and how to rectify it. I suspect that a lot of this is made worse by the perception that the people dealing with the support email are not actually reading the emails and understanding what is written in them.
ID expiration would explain re-verification, because an ID is no longer considered valid once it hits the expiration date. I wouldn't expect that an ID issued when a model is 18 would still be valid when they turn 30. So it makes perfect sense to have currently valid ID's under 2257 requirements on file.
Well for a man, everything other than Chaturbate is a total time waste. Other pages won´t even host you, others like xhamsterLive are timewaste - you´re streaming in front of like 7-10 people.
The very real problem with that - if they actually think this way - is that if you constantly remove the outliers, you will end up with nothing *but* outliers and become very vulnerable. Microsoft did the same thing a few years ago; all middle managers were instructed to get rid of the bottom 10% of people in terms of performance, but instead of streamlining the team's performance it led to a massive office politics clusterfuck and talent who focused more on oneupmanship than actually delivering product. Based on the CB support noise here, the same thing is arguably happening for them.
There is always the potential that the person being broadcasted is not the person who verified. They're trying to avoid broadcasting illegal content. Did you see what happened to pornhub? There was a giant media backlash. There was a huge change in policies, with much more draconian policies.
By any chance are they in UAE or RU? Because porn is illegal in UAE. And it illegal to produce porn in RU. There are similar complaints from models in china, and vietnam.
I am not sure if they were physically in Russia or Ukraine at the moment of the ban. But if model is from these countries it doesn't mean she/he is braking the law. It would be stupid to start banning by ethnicity.
AFAIK, the rules that prevent camming in Russia are around explicit content, rather than monetary gain. A good friend there had to radically change her show about a year ago when the authorities in her area started to target the studio houses there. Ended up being non-explicit in her public show, and saving the rest for private only.
