oh wow. I only just checked out MFC. any wonder I couldn't find what to click on to find where guys are!

IMO the interface of CB is much nicer (bigger thumbnails, etc.)

CB also has couples (allows men and women to have sex on cam)
 
I hate Chaturbate and it feels far less chatty and far more sexual than MFC. Also, I don't like the commingling of men, women, couples, gays and trans. I just wanna look at women. Also, the couple's shows, B/G, are pretty lame compared to watching quality porn. I also hate hearing the dude talk-- Like STF and let the woman speak! Dude why are you fking up the camera angle, show her boobs, butt, legs and just be the penis without a voice and personality. So, yeah, live cam couples stuff is just lame.

Chaturbate seems a bit more modern but the entire vibe is inferior to MFC.

step 1: load Chaturbate.com
step 2: click the tab that says 'female'
step 3: pick up the pieces of your blown mind.
 
Or have the female section of the site bookmarked.

I think it would be a bit overwhelming to teach him about bookmarks this early on.
 
I'll say another thing in CB's favor. I'm not the kind of guy to buy tokens (ya know, steady income, owns a house, etc.), but since CB allows male and female models, I've found myself tipping other models, since I'm already there and already have currency and can't help but like some of what I see. And being someone who has never.bought.porn.before.in.his.life (not even a Playboy--we had the internet when I was 15, LOL), that's obviously the only way this would ever happen. I should be smarter with my money, and I'll never be a king tipper, but maybe it at least ups morale in slow times, or encourages others.
 
So...... Ummmm... did you ignore the other reasons why I hate Chaturbate? I have zero intention to ever use that site again. I hate the vibe and MFC is a friendlier site.

'feels less chatty' was your only other pertinent objection (your rant about couples is to be discarded since MFC has no couples and therefore no couples porn superior to CBs couples porn, so I needn't even address how skewed your experience of their couples porn is compared to what's actually available). I haven't used MFC, so I can't speak to the chattiness issue, and therefore I didn't. Moreover, I have no obligation to force you to believe CB is right for you, and I have no interest in that, I merely desired to point out the lazy and petty absurdity of your cited objection.
 
There is no camscore on CB like there is on MFC-your placement is based on how many users are in your room at any given time. Also, new model status starts right when your account is approved and lasts for 7 days. CB has females, males, couples, and transsexuals.

I don't cam on CB anymore, but I used to and I got a lot more rude trolls on there than I do on MFC or SM. Members on MFC are more generous overall, but that's just my experience. Others may have different experiences.

CB also has a no drinking on cam rule that is strictly enforced. I like the different apps that CB offers (Token Keno, tip in sequence, etc.), but I prefer MFC overall, even though I'm not a top earner by far.

good business decision, that one, since it incentivizes models not blocking anons or greys from their feed (who typically make up around 85% of the audience).
 
No lounge for members to perv on you. To see you a member has to go to your room. No private show archive, no dubious token transfer from user to user function. No apps and bots, no hidden cam shows, private show price cannot be adjusted, no fixed price shows. Video quality is better on cb. Interactive toys REALLY work on cb.

Private message system is definitely better on mfc, also mfc mail, cb does not have a functionality like that.

Why do you think that I need you to teach me how to use a website? Your reply was all press the female tab! LOL thanks! Great advice.

Perhaps you didn't understand. I'm not looking for couples and my criticism of Chaturbates couples rooms has to deal with live cam couple's sex in general. It is not a comparative as you tried to suggest because it seems like you are trying to do an item by item comparison between MFC and Chaturbate. So no it wasn't petty because I wasn't making a comparison-- I was simply saying that those types of rooms suck in general and that watching couples isn't something that I'm interested in because it is never quality and has all the interruptions that i listed.

So if I don't like couples on cam, if I don't like the general vibe, layout and culture of chaturbate, why would I visit that site?

Your entire post is based on your misunderstanding of what I was saying! Please try to understand what was said before commenting. You waste both of our time when you do not follow that simple rule. Another Comm level 1 approach is to ask questions!
 
no dubious token transfer from user to user function
What makes token transfers "dubious"? Also couldn't the same effect be had by tipping your tokens to each other on Chaturbate?

Why would a member send money to another user? What for? I find it useless and dubious. And yes, I know it's used for sharing private show videos.

On cb an account would have to be age verified to receive tokens. That's something only very few users would do.
 
A few uses I've seen token transfer used for:
- members compiling their tokens to send a model a really big tip collectively
- members sending tokens to a model's member account so she can tip another model
- members who are friends sending tokens to another member when he's a bit skint

Obviously it could be used for nefarious purposes but I don't think as a feature it's totally bad or dubious.
 
CB has annoying and gross ads all over the place if you don't use an adblocker. The general vibe isn't as nice and the Mods on a power trip totally ruin it.

CB has laughable customer service, will ban you without warning. The layout of the site is cleaner but I find it a little cold.

You also can't sort the models by as many different locations as you can on MFC, sometimes i like to watch UK models but on CB they are lumped in with the thousands of Euro studio models and impossible to find.

The positives for CB is that it does have better vid quality than MFC and models can set their own private show rates. They also have ticket shows and more apps that can be used for their shows.

Overall I find MFC to be a much better site.
 
I signed up for mfc but have not broadcasted yet. so most of my opinions are from strictly observation

I've been on Chaturbate for 8 months and I feel like a lot of people on Chaturbate give so much away for free. It makes it pretty difficult for those of us trying to earn a paycheck. I think a majority of the people on the site are just scrolling for raunchy explicit shows. Whereas on mfc there is more of a community feel. It's not just about the porn.
For example a model on Chaturbate has 8,000+ viewers in her room. 6,000+ viewers are anonymous or not signed up for the site, 1500 are grey users (signed up but not holding tokens) and the other hand full are members that have spent previously and still holding tokens but are not necessarily spending at that point in time. All the while only a couple of people are carrying on a conversation with the model. On mfc Of course members want to get their nut but a lot of them are looking for a cool chick to get to know, chat with and of course see her naked.

I can't even explain the number of grey users on Chaturbate that will openly tell me that they are jacking off to me and have no intention of ever tipping. It's degrading AF.

So a lot of the difference is the mindset. A majority of Chaturbate is just looking for sexual satisfaction and does not take into account that the model is trying to earn tokens in trade or just don't care. on mfc I think most members understand the balance needed between members and models. Of course there are free loaders on both sites which is to be expected. But the volume is much higher on Chaturbate.

-Chaturbate allows female, male, trans and some possibly underage people to broadcast. (I swear I've seen a 12 year old broadcasting.)

-Chaturbate does not have a e-mailing system which is a huge shortfall.

-Chaturbate has terrible support. Don't bother e-mailing them. They don't reply 99% of the time.

-Chaturbate has really cool apps and games that mfc doesn't

-Chaturbate doesn't have a program to glam up your profile. It all HTML.

-Chaturbate doesn't have a camscore but a ranking by who has the most people in their room.

-Chaturbate seems to have a lot of scammers, profile hacks and profile bans.

-Chaturbate allows us to choose the tokens per minute rate for privates.

- also I feel that Chaturbate has an overload of models online at any point in time. Aproximately 2,500 broadcasters. They do not have the broadband to support us. It doesn't matter if you have a new laptop with the right specs, good cam, great lighting and the best internet, if you are not at the top of the page you will experience a lot of glitches and fps drops.

- I've had a lot of issues with regulars even being able to enter my room.

This is just my experience and observations . I'm sure you can tell I'm a little bitter. Haha.

But overall money can be made and good times can be had on both sites. It's just a matter of what your standards are.
 
How is Chaturbate different from MFC? The only difference I know of is that Chaturbate has male models.

@Guy this has the potential to be the best thread you've posted to date.

From what I understand of Chaturbate's "age verification system", they don't even check the age of a broadcaster until it comes time to pay them, at which point they require ID to verify that the person looking to cash out their tokens is indeed an adult. But up until that point, there's every chance that the broadcaster is underage. To counteract this, Chaturbate rely on members to report the model for being underage, at which point Chaturbate will ban the account, even of the report is erroneous, and even if Chaturbate have the model's details on file and do in fact know that they are of age. They've also been known to uphold bans even after they've confirmed the performer is of age, simply because they look young, and it's presumably easier for Chaturbate to ban them than deal with the continued underage reports that would be sent their way were that person to continue camming. Of course, all of that could be avoided if Chaturbate simply required its performers to upload their ID before being allowed to broadcast, but Chaturbate gonna Chaturbate.
 
^I thought that to sign up to even accept money you have to provide ID information via email with you showing yourself next to your ID? Once verified your account status changes.

It is only casual exhibitionist who do not have to show any ID so anyone could generally cam?

I've never noticed an ad. I guess ads are how anons and greys give thanks to the website for the free content.
d'you have tokens? (maybe it's only broadcasters and premium account viewers who don't see them? it would be fair if anyone who bought the currency got an ad-free experience, since that's a payment to the website).

that would be pretty cunning (underhanded way to profit 100% from child porn) if true.

that was my experience signing up. you cannot receive tokens until you're verified (at least that was the rhetoric. I didn't attempt to broadcast until I was verified).

I used to see them as a broadcaster, but I've since become good friends with adblock.

hmmm. I do have ABP on Chrome. just had a check...only says 1 blocked item when I use CB. :Shrug:

you'd think anyone interested in porn would know all about ad blockers :p no kind of website gives more invasive tricky and even malicious ads than porn sites. (at least these cam sites have a profit model and don't have any reason to do anything malicious like some of the random sites out there in the google world)
