I never listen when someone says "not for countdown" reason being is that I really want to reach that goal and do that show! That's why I count ALL tips towards any show goal. Videos, pic sets, other stuff I sell. It all goes towards the goal because I thoroughly enjoy reaching a goal in a reasonable amount of time and "performing" in a way that makes me feel great! This all comes down to my mantra of only doing things I enjoy on cam! If I have a topic for an oil show and someone tips me double the count to put on pajamas and just hang out, I'm going to say no and I'm going to do my oil show. If I wanted to hang out in pajamas I would have logged on in pajamas!
I don't often have to give up on countdowns though so I guess to the OP, I can understand your point but only depending on the room.
I would think it silly if a member refused to tip while I had a countdown up, however I try my best to put on a show while working towards a show. Removing items of clothing at points in the countdown, Dancing, sometimes busting out things like the jingle belt or nipple clamps.
I recently switch to public shows after a VERY long time of not doing them. Honestly, the way I had been doing things (naked shows in public, cum in groups and privates) for so long was no longer working for me. My room counts were getting smaller and smaller, goals were getting nearly impossible to reach and I was becoming MISERABLE! I hate to say that I was starting to hate the job I once loved.
Starting public cum shows at the time that I did was one of the best career decisions I've made because honestly, I wouldn't still be camming on MFC if things were still going like they were before.
I have NEVER had as many new tippers as I get during a show. I'm sure most of my fellers can agree, having new people tipping during a show feels amazing!
I put off public shows for so long because I was afraid it would make me feel unappreciated with the high numbers and (what I assumed) would be no tipping, it's however been the opposite. Public shows have made me feel SO appreciated, I have a hard time not giggling through the whole thing.
Just my :twocents-02cents: on a few of the subjects being discussed.
This ^^^^^ gets my vote for ACF's Best Of. Hell, it should be the title entry. It is just so pure JJ, I love it.
Well, this ^^^^^^ is not at all what I wanted. When I first read JJ's post I knew I liked it very much, but I didn't know why exactly. I thought it made good sense, but I'm not sure I have ever read a JJ post that didn't make sense. I didn't realize it but I was stuck on this post, stuck on not knowing what I liked about it so much. I came back and read it a second time and vacillated between one thing or another. I could see several things I liked about the writing, and sure, who wouldn't be thrilled about JJ in public if you have ever seen her dance, or even a minute of that door jamb thing she does. But there was something else
I let it go, cuz there was nothing there extra special for a JJ post. Maybe it was some sort of planetary alignment, or misalignment affecting me.
Then like something you couldn't remember popping in after you say screw it - there it was. It was pure JJ. That phrase with no e,xplanation is the only thing that came through the first go around. (Not surprising, I was pretty much trying to get to the other end of the hall with out knocking too many pictures off the walls :drunken: )
With the exception of one or two post every 6 months or so that JJ makes Jup write for her to show him she still controls his soul
, I think JJ writes all her post, pure JJ.
Nope, not what I mean. I think all of us, most of the time have an audience in mind when we write our post. It may not be conscience, or maybe that audience is one person. Or maybe it is the whole world, because dammit we feel strongly about something, and ppl should know that. Or for many other reasons, what we write, I think, most often is not 100% pure, absent some bit of attitude, bare ass naked, in the bright sunlight, without any makeup.
That was what I liked so much about this JJ post. She was thinking, but I would not say out loud - to me it felt like she allowed us into her head so we could quietly sit, and watch her think completely naked and without any makeup.
decisions made to launch a preemptive strike (No Jup, not us, JJ is naked W/no makeup)
Or biorhythms, maybe not planets, I heard those biorhythms can skew stuff real bad when they come up wrong. :lol:
Oh, yeah, I agree, or not, maybe, well, IMhO there is a direct correlation between count downs, and tips.
