I thought this might be kind of a funny post!
Members- I know you've seen some crazy stuff just like we have, and are even familiar with the minor annoyances we models constantly experience. Have you ever thought to yourself, "Damn, if I were her, I totally would have said/done ____"?
I'm curious; if you were a model, how would you handle different things that you've come across on MFC? Like trolls, annoying regs, and other random, ridiculous things.
Examples: "Show tits bb", "You see my cam?", "You're a slut", "Damn, you could do so much better than this", "If you married me you wouldn't have to do this", "Open pussy"
So what makes you shake your head, and how would you respond if you were a model?
- Trolls I would handle like a cat playing with a mouse: bat him around for as long as it's entertaining, then when his entertainment value is dead, leave him on someone's doorstep (ban). If he's just a jerk with no obvious fun value, go strait to ban.
- Annoying regulars are probably one of the more tricky problems. If they tip or otherwise have added something positive to the room, I would obviously rather not have to kick them out and lose them. I might try sending them a PM/mail explaining that I value having them in the room but that whatever their annoying behavior is makes things difficult for me, so please cut that out. If they persist in being a pain, I guess I'd have to decide how much grief they're worth putting up with and give them additional chances or ban depending on that. At some point you have to say enough is enough and get rid of them if they just won't cool it.
- For "show tits bb" or other totally useless bullshit, I'd probably just immediately ignore.
- For "look at my cam" stuff, I'd probably say ONCE "I don't watch cams, sorry" (or "I watch cams for X tokens" if I'm willing). Repeat demands/requests (unless accompanied by X tokens if I allow that) get ignored or the ban hammer.
- "You're a slut" or other outright insults, I'd just ban without acknowledging at all unless something funny to say first comes to mind (then say it and still ban).
- "You could do so much better than this." Ignore or ban, then tell the room I did so and say, "Hey, he was right! I feel better already!"
- "If you married me you wouldn't have to do this." Reply, "Yes, but then I'd go broke paying for all the "I married an asshole support groups I'd need to go to." Ban.
- "Open pussy" Reply: "Close mouth." Ignore/ban.
Hmm, other things models deal with:
- So called "white knighting" (assuming you don't want the help -- I have seen a couple of models who do like their guys standing up for them, personal preference and depends on the situation, I guess) - I'd say (publicly since you want everyone to know how you feel about this): "thanks for sticking up for me, but I prefer to handle it myself, just FYI in the future." Repeats would get treated like annoying regulars above (note to the effect that, "look, I know you mean well, but I need to control my own room, so please cut it out", ban at some point if they just will not stop). If the regular was effectively chasing someone away who wasn't doing anything bad, I'd say something like "Hey, Johnny Regular, New Guy isn't doing anything wrong, let's give him a chance" (and maybe send a similar note to above).
- Bigotry: ban. I'd say "I don't feel that way about people, and I don't have time for anyone who does." Just get rid of those guys right away, or they'll poison the room.
- People who say they will not tip and/or mock people who do. - Instaban. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with quiet/polite non-tippers, but anyone who advertises it or worse, tries to make my tippers feel bad about tipping has to go.
- Someone you like saying they can't currently tip - I'd tell them it's all right, no need to tell me about it, I know you'll help out when you can. The idea would be to sound cool and understanding, while putting it out there gently that it's better not to mention it and that you would like a tip when they're able.
- Spamming for other models or websites - Instaban. If there's a link, warn your room that the link might not be safe to click.
- Posting irritating images/emotes (personally, I dislike penis and sex emotes -- most of your guys won't want to see the penis at all, and why would I want a competing sex image in my room while I'm trying to be sexy?) - If the poster is otherwise being okay, give one warning that I don't like that kind of image in my room. If a repeat offense or the guy's a jerk anyway, ignore.
- Spamming a lot of emotes in chat (to the point where it's irritating) - Say nicely to please take it easy with the emotes because it makes the chat hard to follow. If it persists, ignore the person.
Well, looks like only a couple of these fall under the "funny" heading, so I guess I'll shut up now. I could probably add lots more to the list, but nobody on this forum is going to be surprised by it, so 'nuff said.
