    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! :) This makes perfect sense! The usernames (typically word salad to begin with) would be impossible to remember and keeping a running total would be extremely hard. Thanks, as well, for the behind the scenes look! It's as difficult as I thought it might be...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    Sorry, I merged the example with a hypothetical - true, the girl I was referring to had only 8 viewers, but my question was about how the typical camgirl remembers names, and they often see thousands. In fact, if you look at MarieElise's response below, she is *exactly* the scenario I was...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    Thank you, so pretty normal in your experience. Actually this leads me to a different question, given the thousands of clients, how would she remember a 50$ tip when he comes "back another day"? Do models have trackers? I don't necessarily tip for a decent reception the next time I drop back...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    Thank you for pointing out simple "altruism"! That was refreshing!! There is a certain hard 'edge' to this world that (generally) reduces all interaction to a "fee for service" business model - or if there is a genuine connection, then the "parasocial relationships are bad" label gets applied...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    Thank you! That was very illuminating! I find this world really fascinating because you have so many different dynamics in play - the model's financial goals and her preferences, the parasocial dynamics of the clients, the rules and goals of the host platform (stripchat, mfc, etc), the "free...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    True! Thank you! As a client I can't see that so I was wondering what models experience and I am curious about all the reasons. Because yesterday a brand new model, with eight people in her room, fully clothed, doing nothing but sitting in her tastefully decorated room suddenly gets a guy that...

    Tipping psychology and addictive/compulsive behaviors?

    56/M here, new to the world of camsites, primarily on Stripchat for the last three months... so I'm definitely a newbie and have a very limited data set! It completely amazes me when I see a random tipper suddenly come into the room and "tip bomb" the model. Doesn't take her private, barely...

    Songs/Quotes that remind you of the cam world?

    I pretty much have the song stuck on repeat and the quote because I ran my tokens to zero to keep motivated to get actual work done, lol! Anyone have any other songs/quotes/witticisms? "If women didn't exist, all the money in the world would have no meaning." - Aristotle Onassis, the...

    Do Exhibitionists Drive Down Earnings?

    Thank you, I appreciate the inside opinion, a lot! It would make sense that a customer base would prefer a particular genre/style/vibe and would stay pretty loyal. However, I might be in the minority because I have pretty pronounced ADHD/prospecting tendencies and I can be a squirrel leaping...

    Do Exhibitionists Drive Down Earnings?

    Thank you! Excellent recommendation and I did hear about Statbate recently, maybe here or reddit, although a cam model wrote that it is wildly inaccurate (iirc, she said something like, "there is no way I could live off that number, lol, it's way too low") so I have to look into it further...

    Daily Thoughts

    The intersection of sexual desire and satisfaction combined with the human need for connectedness, mixed up with economic transactions and delivered over the global internet in 1080p is a lot to process. Glad this site is here!

    Who the F*$%# are you?! Introduce yourself here.

    Hey All :) Just your average 55/M guy with extra time on his hands who is new to this fascinating area of the internet! Very interested in the sociology, the economic/financial dynamics, the (unfortunate) laws that limit personal freedom and expression and personal agency, the psychological...

    Do Exhibitionists Drive Down Earnings?

    M/55 here... very new to this world. Question for you all? Do exhibitionists drive down earnings? I have collected about a hundred favorites and as I sort through them I am astonished by the difference in what a girl will do (and won't) do in public chat. This fascinates me from a...
