I think it is common for members who have been at MFC for any amount of time to develop some sense that they know what it takes to be a good cam model. And we could all manage our Favorite sports team better than it is now being managed too. I think finding the right formula to be a successful cam model can be as complex as managing a pro sports team, and thinking it is easy is just as much an illusion as thinking you could have got the Niners to the Super Bowl.
That said, I do know some of the things that have made me leave a room not to return. So I thought a thread that gave members a place to express those things that turn them off, might be beneficial to both member, and model.
I am interested to hear what things are turn offs and why.
I'll start with two that caused me to not return to see the models. In one case it was a room that I had spent some time in and was fond of the model. Both were issues of sincerity.
In the first case I got an MFCmail from a model that started,"Thank You! Thank you so much for your kind hearted words, and everything you did to help me. I appreciate it more than you could imagine." This was from a model who's room I had just been in for the first time that day. I had gone there after seeing a news feed from a model promoting her. At first I thought bravo, she is doing some off cam follow up work. Then I seemed to remember that I had to leave just after entering her room I thought. Checking the archives it turned out that all I had said in her room was, "Hi" and hello to the model who had put up the feed. I might have thought there was a chance of mistaken identity, until I talked to another member who had been in her room at the same time and found he had been sent the exact same MFCmail. I understand how time consuming it can be to send a personal thank you to every one who has been in your room. I have received obvious forum mails before, and though not as nice as a personal note to me, are not a turn off if they simply thank me for being a guest in that room. This though I found to be very insincere and a huge turn off.
The second case happened more recently, and was of much more disappointment to me. I was in a model's room who I had in the previous month became fond of visiting, and had been to her room four or five times. This day she was on cam with another model. The goal set for a show was a fair amount and at first did not look as if it were going to be reached. I emptied the account I was in at the time in a vain effort to get some tipping started. Things dragged on with only smaller tips coming in slowly. I knew I had another account with 200+ tokens in it, and changed to that account. I reentered the room and started matching the small 10&20 tkn tips that were trickling in. At some point two rather large (1000+ from what I remember) tips came in and seemed to loosen up some of the freetards who had not been tipping before. It felt as if those who had not tipped before could now see that the goal was doable and now the smaller tips were streaming in pretty well. With 870 or 880 something left one of the members who had put up one of the previous big tips finished the count. The room count was near 2k and the mood was very up beat. Those of us who had been there for over an hour were very appreciative to the two members who had made the big tips, but also to many who had tipped steady to keep some yellow up. It was one of those time when it really did feel like it was a group effort. I don't have to tell you how rare that can be. I was caught up a little in that feeling that maybe things are not so bad - its a wonderful world :dance: , when I realized the show (for lack of any word to describe the briefness of the encounter that had occurred), was over. The model was saying good buy, that she had a skype show to do. Before she turned off her cam she told those who were putting up objections, that this guy had been waiting for an hour. Maybe she would be back on in an hour or two, if not then tomorrow.
There had been no mention of any waiting skype show, or any waiting engagement. It was glaringly obvious that the plan all along had been to reach the goal than get out of there as soon as one could. Having not been there, one might argue, that I have no reason to be put out, as the agreed show had been preformed, no matter how brief, and therefore the contract was fulfilled. I can not debate that, and technically there was no breach.
This thread however is not about the technical details of the imagined model/member contract, but rather things models do that turn us off and are the reason we will not return to their room. For me this was one of those things. Let me say finally, that a model does not have to be sincere, only that I have to be able to believe she might be. I don't think the extra 10 minuets - 5 on the show side and 5 on the back side, would have nixed the skype show that had been waiting an hour, and would not have left me, as others I am sure, feeling used.
