From a member's side I'm sure it's great, but as a camgirl I always kinda felt like was just sorta a way to lurk without feeling the commitment of chatting or tipping. I get how it can be great for premiums who don't want to get notifications on their favorites/guest, but man...after I switched to a less social site it was so refreshing to just see more people in my chat...even if they were guesting. Seeing numbers of people watching, makes me want to stick on longer, even if I'm not getting tipped. Yeah, a guest won't contribute to my chat or tip there, but they often WILL buy videos. I rarely am able to sell videos unless I'm on cam, so it's nice to see the numbers. It kinda makes me feel like I'm appreciated, and not wasting my time. I get the idea of some wanting to be anon. They might be nervous, might not want to sign on for yet another site...there are tons of reasons really.
I guess just remember on such a competitive site, it's best to try and support your favorites rather than have a cool time with them then never show up again except in their friend's list. I had too many times on MFC where guys told me they still watched me all the time from lounge making me think...uh thanks, I think (?) I figure they may have anon tipped here and there, but I wouldn't have felt appreciated by that person. I knew one member who thought that lounge members showed up as guests in chat as well. That isn't true (just in case anyone else thought that). I can see how he thought it'd still contribute kinda, but in reality it didn't. I mean when a camgirl signs up yes, she's doing it to make money, but it's supposed to be about the job being interactive. I think most models feel as though they aren't doing a very good job if they aren't at least being viewed.
