So apparently the new highest tip in MFC history is 500,000 tokens, which to me, is pretty mind-blowing. Congrats to the model and congrats to the member for being (hopefully) rich enough to be able to afford that kind of insane generosity. It did get me thinking though, about the thought process that led up to the tip (and others like it), and the aftermath. Obviously, it's not really anybody else's business, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't kinda fascinated by the whole thing, and interested in the psychology behind a tip like that. To me, $45,000 is an insane amount to gift someone on the internet in one go, regardless of how much entertainment, sexual gratification and/or companionship they've provided you. But to the members who drop these mega-tips, it's obviously not that big of a deal, or they simply wouldn't do it. I guess my question is, to members who might be whale tippers or folk who know whale tippers, what drives a tip like that? Is it purely admiration for the model? And if so, what leads you/them to arrive at a specific number? Why 10,000 tokens instead of 5000? Why 20,000 over 10,000, or 500,000 over 250,000? Or is it more competitive - "This guy tipped 100k, so I'm gonna tip 200k"?. Or is it purely economical - "I can go up to 500,000 tokens, but any more than that is going to financially cripple me"?
Also, as a model, how does a tip like that make you feel? If it was me, I'd obviously be overwhelmed and happy and grateful and there's a good chance that I'd temporarily lose control of my bodily functions. But after that, I think I'd feel so indebted to that member, I'd worry about what I could possibly do to ensure he felt as if he was getting his money's worth. When you get a huge tip like that, is there an unspoken pressure to live up to that tip? Or concern that the member is hoping for more than you can offer him? Or do tips like that just kind of exist in a vacuum?
Again, really none of my business, but I be intrigued.
