Member's Pet Peeves

[Jupiter551]

Kids have been finding stashes of porn since porn was invented, and before that they were probably furtively jerking off to nude paintings.

Can't comment on girls cos I never had any sisters but for boys, puberty, libido and wanting to look at naked women is about as normal as it gets.

 

[LilyVonShtupp]

Of course there was no way my parents could have kept me away from that stuff. I knew more about all of it than they did. I only hope I can learn from my own sneakiness when I have my own kids!

Good luck with that. :lol:

I know, it never works that way! A girl can dream, though, can't she?

Yup, very true! I'll never forget the summer of "full frontal" where me and a few other girls were determined to find movies that would show us a penis.

I think this would be a hell of a lot easier now, not even considering the internet, but back then barring walking in on one of my brothers in the bathroom (sometimes I think my friends did this on purpose) seeing a penis wasn't the easiest of tasks for a young girl.

However, I do also remember my dad got the Playboy Channel in 1986 and I do not believe there was any parental blocks back then. I was too young to really get what was going on but my brothers seemed to think it was awesome, hahaha.

i have another pet peeve...
saying BRB and not coming back... :-/

 

[LadyLuna]

On the kids:

I try to keep my public shows tame for this reason. And I do explain that to the people who try to push for more.

On the tipping:

You're right, if the rules weren't being broken, I completely agree that tips as a reward would work wonders. Since they are, I put up a menu on my profile along with having the daily countdown of "15 mins of naked time every 500 tokens". When guys ask why don't I stay naked, I explain that I end up sitting there naked talking to myself because no one tips, requests a grp/pvt, or ever really says much of anything. In short, no matter how interesting I try to be, if I'm naked, my room gets boring quick. :/

Yep! Shame on us for being so jerkable.

 

[Jupiter551]

Lol well I guess sometimes on MFC utter silence really is the highest compliment.

 

[Bocefish]

I dunno why models do this, but it's a real turn-off for me. When we click on your menu, we want to see some images of YOU!

NOT screen caps of who tipped you how much and when!

When I see stuff like that on your menu, the likelihood of me visiting your room decreases substantially.

If you want to post that stuff on your profile, that's fine and dandy if that's what you're about. Please do NOT post them so it appears all over your menu.

Those pics are automatically pulled from whatever was uploaded onto the profile most recently, automatically. We don't control which images show up on the menu.

 

[Bocefish]

Hmmmm... I thought you could choose what goes on your menu by where you upload the pics to?

 

[AmberCutie]

You can choose which go in the "recent photos" section by selecting it in the drop down, but I don't believe it affects your menu. We don't have anything in a drop-down that specifies the menu.

 

[Bocefish]

An easy fix for that would be to create another gallery for tips, or whatever u wanna name it.

Yeah but what I'm saying is that regardless of the album you put them in, the newest pics uploaded appear in the menu.

 

[Bocefish]

Ah OK, now I understand, durrrrr.

Peeve rescinded then.

 

[AdrenalineRsh]

Which leads me to going away in general, when you take the group or prvt SAY SO before you click accept, and as above you cannot take prvt/group if you just made the goal for the free show.

I'm going to post this in model peeves, but it's relevant to this:

-When I'm in the middle of typing a pm and get an invite to pvt with no warning, and the space bar sends me into the pvt, leaving me wondering who the fuck did that and what the fuck they want me to do.

i hate when that happens!!

 

[WickedTouch]

Several of my personal peeves gave already come up re: bad cam video, connection speed problems, disconnections at the models end, lousy or non existant sound (and why do some girls have the mic next to the keyboard, which then sounds like a herd of elephants running through my speakers when they type?) etc..

Now, guests and basics are not immune here either. In some rooms there can be great banter going down, where everyone, guests, basics, premiums and the model all have a great time chatting and there is a great atmos. However in other rooms we get the classic annoying demands from guests and basics who ask for stuff they can't back up with tokens and they don't seem to understand that they can be complimentary to the model sure, but NEVER request or demand stuff. Etiquette is lost on some of these morons!

Yeah, I know the model can mute these individuals, but they still can sit and watch any public nudity in the room unfettered. I had an idea, that the model's chat muting function could be extended to include a video blanking feature as well, so that the irritating ones could be shut out by the model if she wished... timed like the existing chat mute.

Another way would be to put an auto time limit in the room for guests and basics (LJ used to have one!) so that they would be bumped back to a banner screen after say 2 mins viewing, reminding them to sign up and join rather than get a free show.

I am aware that this could be abused by some models as well, who could shut out all the freeloaders to concentrate on only paying prems, but that could also help members decide which rooms were best to visit.

Sound like an idea?

 

[WickedTouch]

What I'm really saying is, why is tipping expected before any type of "reward" is offered. I understand that a girl's room is her castle, but I feel it really makes me feel like there is no respect when a model asks/whines for tips, which I then give in decent quantity, to which her reply is "thanks hun" without even a smile. Obviously I can just make my way to another room, but I still feel like I've been ripped off. I'm OK with stated goals like "500 for nude" etc., I'm really just getting at the whole underlying culture of the thing. Rather than me feeling like I'm some sycophant groveling at the feet of a beautiful woman, I would rather feel like a patron of an adult entertainment show, who rewards that show according to how good the show was. I've tried to bring this up in some rooms and gotten majorly ripped for, but I would rather have a girl put on a how and me tip her as a reward for good work. This is at odds with the prevailing "give me money and you just might get to see a nipple" zeitgeist.

I guess it all comes down to what gets the most tips, and apparently guys like to be taken advantage of. This doesn't really apply to the girls who post in this room, however.

Yes, I agree in part to what you say... after all a model should be able to ask for tips... suggest a topic list etc, but when it comes round again and again it can seem tiresome and akin to the passing of a begging bowl. However it may stem from the fact that in some rooms models have been stiffed in the past by guys who say "do this, blah blah blah, do that etc etc, and we'll tip you", then when the model has performed, they renege and slope off after getting a free show. I have this very week had to explain the concept of tip BEFORE request to a new model who told me she got lots of guys in her room, who were blanking her for tokens after she got naked and was working on cam in public chat, doing things that should have earned her about 5 times what she was actually picking up for lots of effort.

Now, I don't feel that I have been taken advantage of... on the contrary, I always use the "tip before request" rule myself as it earns respect, trust and helps the model know that you are a dependable customer who wont stiff them for tokens. This policy works so well for me now that two girls whom I visit on MFC, will PM me as soon as they go online and by the time I reply and view them they are already naked and ready to play. They know they can count on me and the trust works both ways as I am more likely to then tip higher for their hard work.

Oh and if you are just getting the "thanks hun" reply when you tip maybe the trust is not where it should be... at least the girls I check in with are interested enough to be able to remember my name!

That can be annoying sometimes - i have a model who pms me immediately when i log on to mfc. for a time i suspected a script because i got the pms before the mfc app had loaded completely. but well - there are harder burdens than getting the attentions of hot girls...

Yeah, I understand that it can be a pain at times especially if the PM's are from unknown users. I tend to stick on the Asian Homepage pretty much all the time and visit the girls there, but recently I got several PM's and a wall message from a Romanian girl, whom I had never heard of.. turns out she had PM'd a whole slew of guys across the site at random to try and whip up some attention, though I just got annoyed.

 

[WickedTouch]

Oh yeah and giving the model an offline tip before visiting her room always helps as well, due to the fact it has a greater impact in raising the camscore than tips in public chat would have. They like that... :-D and if the model is happy then we all have a fun time...

It's not that an offline tip has a greater impact on camscore, it's just that it creates more tokens overall, and can help based on how much longer/shorter time she stays on cam due to that offline tip. (It's been discussed repeatedly in the camscore thread Camscore takes tokens per time online into consideration, and pretty much that alone. )

Yes, thats right... I was just trying to find a short way of saying that... just got a little sidelined in translation. Cheers :-D

The best way to think of offline tips: It's a way to make the girl smile, feel very special, and help with her overall token goal for the day!

 

[SweepTheLeg]

Here's a pet peeve, its probably been discussed as this thread is 9 pages long BUT when a model will whine that she's not doing privates or groups and is getting tired about people trying to take her to either BUT won't turn them off.

Yup, I totally agree. I started giving offline tips a few months back and found that it generated much more positive feedback from the girls. They do indeed prefer to see a tip attached when you send them an offline message. Sending a message when I have not been around for a while lets the girls know I am thinking about them... they are missed... feel special and the tip is just a bonus to that... icing the cake. The girls do tend to remember guys who do that for them.

 

[Traditio]

and a rational explanation is also that an offline tip is less often then an online tip - therefore they can remember your name better then in the heat of a show...

Is that a setting models can turn off and leave off, or is it like muting guests that a model has to reset everytime she comes back from away?

Anytime the model's software is restarted, it would need to be updated. Not every time they change their away/online/group/pvt status like with guests.

allow me to direct my Clint Eastwood like scowl in your direction.

 

[NerdCandy]

One pet peeve that I am guilty of adhering to (sorries!) is the bad connection/cam skipping issues. Shite-internet is better than none for me, at least right now.
