While I do agree with you, Mikey - I feel like it may create more drama - I also think it is more fun to be able to see the top 100 models. In the past few months, I have made it into the 200s, which I feel is a great accomplishment for me, and while I don't really give two shits about being a top 20 model (frankly, I don't really want to work that hard or that many hours considering I start going a little loopy after two hours on cam), I do like that it is a good way to track one's progress.
Maybe I'm just not a catty bitch, but I was really happy to see some of my friends like Amber or Jolene or some of our other forum friends up there in the top 100. I never would have known that they were doing so well without the top 100 being shown! I am so proud of them, and all of the other models on that list. I also noticed that not all of the models in the top 100 was a cookie-cutter, toothpick chick with fake tits, a tan, and a badass attitude (no offense at all to those of you who are), and that also made me squee because hey, we are all different and wonderful in our own ways (damnit, I sound like a Hallmark card).
So, yes, I see where this cattiness could get worse, but I would like to invite all of the models on here to take a different approach - let's celebrate other models' success while striving to be better ourselves instead of stepping on all the other girls to get a foot in the door. Because, when it comes down to it, we can ALL be successful - we can ALL have our own niche following depending on our personality, looks, fetishes, etc. There are several thousand models on MFC, and I will bet that there are about as many business strategies as there are models. Let's not tear each other down, let's build each other up! :twocents-02cents:
And with that, I feel like that chick from Mean Girls:
Crying girl: I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school... I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy...
[about to cry]
Damian: [shouting from back] She doesn't even go here!
Ms. Norbury: Do you even go to this school?
Crying Girl: No... I just have a lot of feelings...
Ms. Norbury: Ok go home...
[girl walks off stage]
Ms. Norbury: Next!
Sorry for the sunshine and rainbows post - and HELLO to everyone, since I haven't posted in a long time!!
