Ok regardless of your reasons for not visiting models because they're become "too popular", why the fuck are you telling us this?
It is NOT helpful!
Pretty sure the OP (Original Poster) was not directing his comments specifically at models. From what I inferred, OP merely questioned how others manage their "Favorites" (that list on our Profile pages), not specifically "Friends" (visible only to Members internally, a sort of quick-list of who's online and what not)
Isabella_deL said:
Wtf, are we all meant to earn less and do badly for the sake of your ego?
It seems you're taking this from "general inquiry" to "personal attack"....most forums are not one-on-one conversations. You may want to keep this in mind in the future.
Isabella_deL said:
Sure, go to girls who do worse who will be earning less and have less people around, but your comments about it aren't constructive, if a girls camscore gets higher and her paycheques go up then great for her!
I'll have to disagree with you here; keeping the "Favorites" criteria in mind, I find OP to be spot-on. My "Favorites" list is
very short (Heck, TestCam3 is one of them)
Isabella_deL said:
The majority of us are in fact in it for the money, so yeah, if I had a choice I'd pick earning more over earning less and hanging around with members who would ditch me as soon as I get a bit more attention.
From my side of the fence, it does appear that a majority choose this as both their primary profession and are "in it for the money", as you say. Were it easy enough for
me to attract women as it is for a woman to attract men, I'd do this in a heartbeat.
Isabella_deL said:
The rest, well, models who haven't been online in 6 months? yeah, nice one, they've probably stopped camming for good, so kind of makes sense to delete them.
Models who's rooms you stopped going into... well again, you've gone off them, you're not visiting them, so surely that was for another reason, I don't think that model really cares you've deleted her off your friends list 6 months after you last tipped 10 tokens.
Both valid points, a model may never return to the site, or the member may not have made a lasting impression in the first place. Keeping a tidy list doesn't seem to have a large downside...
Isabella_deL said:
And oh my goddd!!!! A model talks to you?! Man, she must be after tokens! The bitch! Seriously?
Back to the personal attacks....
Isabella_deL said:
I pm loads of people, often just for chat/to see how they are, but I will also generally test the water to see if they are interested in any videos etc. Jeeze, you're on mfcs, it's like being in a shop, i'm not going to have a hissy fit if I go into a shop and someone offers me assistance.
I have to admit, I was starting to lose interest in what you had to say at this point. However, this personality trait of yours deserves nurturing. As I've mentioned before, I'm here for the
interaction, not to treat you hard-working ladies like channels on a television.
Isabella_deL said:
Zoomer you have a very good point about members also having bills to pay etc. The big difference is, you're choosing to be on mfc for leisure purposes.
Another point in your corner, Isabella_deL. I do appreciate a woman who understands this dynamic about the economics with this business model.
Isabella_deL said:
Cam girls on the other hand are on mfc because they need to earn to pay those bills. As gets pointed out all the time on here, it is our job.
I respect anyone who chooses
any career and works to excel at it. There's nothing quite like watching a craftsman hone their trade. However, pointing out that you're here
for the money works against your aspirations with regards to
this profession. I've not been on these forums long enough to determine if it's members consistently ignoring the dynamic, or some sort of flag-waving on certain model's part. (I'm leaning towards "members are dicks" simply because their numbers outweigh models by several orders of magnitude.)
Isabella_deL said:
If I did choose to go to a restaurant I would still tip the appropriate amount even if I were poor. The waiter/waitress shouldn't have to be put out of income after providing a service just because I have bills to pay, so do they, I'd chosen to be there.
Interestingly OP didn't bring up tipping, just when to prune the "Favorites" list (I don't recall "Friends" being mentioned by OP either, but been inferred by yourself so I'll continue to comment thusly).

I don't think you'd be very impressed if you were told by your work that you won't get to pay your bills because after hiring you they can't afford to pay you for the work you've done.
Now this one I'm going to savor...I've been in a very similar situation;
As a young motivated lad way back in the day, I worked for a computer repair shop that also sold computers. Having my father's charisma, and the benefit of his decades experience managing the retail-world (several states worth of stores), I sought out to make a name for myself.
After almost a year, the shop I was at had to knock out a wall and expand because of the marketing/sales tactics I employed. (No real challenge, the existing management was atrocious.)
Upon my hiring-date anniversary (nerdiversary?) I inquired with my boss if we had any sort of review-process because I would very much appreciate a raise.
That little Vietnamese woman stood next to her brand new Lexus, looked me in the eye and told me "I can't. I have to hire more people to deal with the business you've brought in."
My attorney has advised me not to publicly discuss the events immediately after that conversation or the terms of my "voluntary separation" with the company. Though she still calls every year or so to see how I'm doing, if I want my old job back, and if I'm married.
