Models who have long verbal conversations with someone who is PMing them. This is incredibly confusing.
Yep, everything Shelly said. I used to have a couple regulars who would PM me
everything that went through their heads. One would always send things like "Iris! That reminds me of this funny story about a bunny that I used to own!" and tell me this long story that A) really didn't need to be private, and B)
definitely could have and
should have been saved for off-cam. Or he would ask for advice on talking to a girl from work. What did she mean when she said, "Have fun on vacation! Take lots of pictures for me to see!"???
The other one would PM about anything and everything I said. Any food that I mention on cam, PM with recipes for similar things. Any movie/book that I mentioned, PM with a synopsis and review, sometimes with links to PDF files of it. A new hobby that I'm thinking about? PM with videos/books/websites to help me become a pro at that skill.
All of these PMs are so nice to receive because it shows that the member actually cares about you enough to show you parts of their lives or to help you in some way. However, I am very non-confrontational, so the most I could do was to politely (and publicly) ask all the PMers to simply ask themselves "Does this need to be private? And does she need to know/see this
right now?" That worked for a few days/weeks, but they would still fall back into their old PMing ways. So in that case, yes, I did respond out loud. Luckily, most of them got the hint and started either saying the things in chat or sending an MFCmail that I could read later.
