So i am curious.
I see this quite often where a user will tip for an item from the tip menu (let's say on Stripchat, for example), but they haven't CLICKED the item and tipped through the menu, so it doesn't come up as "Tip Menu: ITEM NAME".
Instead it just says "User tipped XX tokens".

Do you recognise the fact it's X amount which is the same as something on your menu and then you ask them if that's what they wanted and then you perform it if so?
Or do you just say thanks (or not) and then if they bring up the fact "I tipped for XX off the menu", how do you then go about that? Do you do it or do you say "Sorry but you need to use the menu and tip for it", so then they have to tip the same amount again, but using the menu specifically? Maybe it depends on what the tip amount is or what the number is (if it's a common tip or not - IE. 5, 10, 25, 50, so you ignore those, but if it's a random weird number like 17 or 27 you take notice and tink/realise maybe they are wanting from the menu but didn't use it).


I see different models handling this different ways, I am just curious what everyone's opinion is. Can it depend on how nice/rude the user is (or has been)? How new they are to the site? is there any factors you consider when this happens?


Users: how do you handle this too if you have done this, do you get annoyed or do you hold your hands up and take it as a learning curve, and future you need to use the actual menu?
 
I smile and thank them by name, and ask “Is that tip for something in particular…or just because?” We took time to compile a list of tip menu items for a reason, so guys should use that…rather than assume we’re just gonna keep standing and turning around…or keep turning around and to show ass…etc. like a performing monkey (as Amber once called it…haha). And there have been times when I went ahead and did the action right away without asking…only for the guy to then say “Oh, that tip wasn’t for a flash or anything. It’s just for you!” So yeah…if the guy doesn’t use the tip menu or specify that it’s FOR something, I’m gonna just treat it like it’s a just because tip because you think I’m awesome. :smuggrin:

And guys…if you’re ever in this situation, I hope you wouldn’t come running to this forum to complain that a model didn’t do what you tipped her for…being all dramatic. Lol. We’re not mind readers. Use your words and politely say what your tip is for…and do it right away. :) Don’t wait ‘til 2 hours later and be like “Ya know…I tipped you 50 tokens earlier, and I didn’t get to see your ass.” Lol.

I think sometimes it can be an honest "mistake" though. And what I mean by that is, some sites (such as CB) you send the tip and it automatically corresponds to the item on the menu, and then it will automatically say "Tiped for XX", but other sites (such as SC) you have to physically click the "Tip Menu" then select the item and then click ok to confirm it.
 
I normley say thanks and just do something that's on my menu for that price unless they specify. I split cam so tips norm get others to get a show of I start moaning or doing something for it

I had one guy who kept tipping 30 tokens which is my "stand up" menu item. After the fifth time I was like do you want me to stand up and he said no so I said stop tipping 30's then. He laughed, I laughed, the toaster laughed. I shot the toaster. Good times.

Again, it seems really effin stupid that SC would create a system where one tip can mean two different things happen, there should not be an extra step to get to a menu item with the same tip.
 
There's a model I chat with on CB - we mostly discuss art, literature, music and cats. Very early on I tried to make sure any tips didn't link to anything sexual and I told her that if, by mistake, a tip does trigger something sexual that she should just ignore it. A bit of communication goes a long way :)
