It is not all about sex...
Just remember girls, that not all men just want a relationship for sex. Some want to get their ironing done too

RE: male loves to be watched in his fur
If a host, who is an activist for PETA, watches you, would that somehow make it more erotic?
RE: male loves to be watched in his fur
no, i do not think of PETA comments. i would prefer comments regarding being dressed warm and cozy by mom etc.
RE: why u do this?
I have extra money and not enough real sex. Where I live, I cannot convert money into real sex easily, so this is convenient, and hot.
RE: why u do this?
presents are nice but they do not wrap their arms around you at night, they do not wipe away your tears when you are sad and they do not give you a gentle, loving, caring, nor comforting words when needed. and they do not tell u that everything will be alright.
i would take those over a gift any time.

CC is not a clone of other sites
I have seen many posts by hosts over time stating how much they like CC and whenever a suggestion is made about how nice a new feature may be, several complain if CC changes one bit it will become a clone of other sites.
The recent upgrade to full screen was opposed by some hosts and it is far from perfect and I think we need HD to make it really work well. And every time Voyeur View or any other technical upgrade is mentioned there is opposition from both hosts and some members siting the cost involved and that prices would have to rise to pay for these upgrades.
Well technical upgrades are crucial to staying competitive in the digital world. When I first joined CC there was no c2c and I recall seeing posts asking for 2 way cam as it was called in those days. And since the great majority of hosts along with a good deal of members were in favor, I did not see anyone posting CC would be a clone of other sites or the costs of this upgrade would drive up prices.
But now anytime there is a post asking for an upgrade that most if not all viewers would enjoy, we hear negative feedback from many hosts and their fanboys.
And oh I can't forget to talk about 121. No other site has such a configuration. It has only one real purpose and that is to increase the overall cost of the videochat and put more $ in the hosts' pocket and its all done on the fly. That was never the purpose intended by CC when it first came out, but it has evolved and that's the way it is now.
So there you have it, it almost looks like the hosts and their fanboys run the site. So ok if hosts really want to increase their income, they would be on board with Voyeur View. Why you say. Ok suppose a host charges $4.00 for 121,then has a member or 2 or 3 or 4 in VV, it increases her income. Whatever the VV charge is would be added to her totals. So using $1 extra for an example , with one member it would be $5 , 2 $6, 3 $7 and so on.The VV would end when the pvt ends or when the member leaves. He can't vote, can't type and is watching in stealth mode and neither the host nor her member in pvt is aware. In my opinion it would bring more $ to all hosts than even 121. And the host could have the option of having VV unlimited, limited to 1 minute or some other time limit or disable the feature completely. And the extra revenue could pay for the upgrade without the need to raise prices.
And the upgrade to HD is a good investment and could provide a much better screen resolution so we viewers could better see all of CC's lovely hosts.

RE: CC is not a clone of other sites
Just my 2 cents, but I think the 10 minutes of your life spent writing that would have been put to better purpose having a video session
RE: CC is not a clone of other sites
The suggestions that prompt most objections about CC becoming a clone of other sites are generally those that involve extra rules on what hosts must and must not do. I have seen few objections to genuine technical improvements. the new bigger video window does offer a higher resolution than the old small one but I think whether tis is utilised depends on the host's camera settings and bandwidth. There are other sites that have a feature equivalent to 121. 121 was introduced by CC in repsonse to complaints by viewers about not getting attention when a host had more than one member in video and hosts who had problems juggling multiple simultaneous requests. At the same time CC restricted the number of sessions a host could have open at one time and introduced the rule that as soon as someone entered video in one session the host had to close the other if she had one one. The additional cost of 121 was to partly balance the reduction in income to hosts resulting from this. IMHO I think 121 iis a case of not wishing for something because you might get it.
RE: CC is not a clone of other sites
Who is this guy who keeps on writing these long over analytical posts. I can't read them. If I do my brain hurts. Where are all the good one liners?
MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
Any of you people been moutain climbing like the pyrenees mountains and how as it?
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
climbing is great fun. I have done lots in the USA, Rocky Mountains and Alsaka, and in Swiss and Italian Alps. Make sure you go with someone experienced. Even climing non-technical mountains, where you do not need ropes, can be dangerous due to weather or getting lost. But with exprience, it can be very safe and fun.
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
I"ve never hiked in Alsaka. Is that in the Ozarks, or the Rockies? Or maybe the Appalachians/Great Smoky Mountains?
Alsaka -- maybe it is in Hawaii?
<great big grin>
Alsaka -- maybe it is in Hawaii?
<great big grin>
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
I spent most of my youth rock climbing in the UK mountains. Nothing as exotic as the Pyrenees. I live in the English Lake District, and have climbed in England, Scotland and Wales. But all of this (and other fun!) largely stopped when I became a parent. Why do you ask?
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
I can jump out of bed and be on the summit of the highest "hill" in England in a few hours. Yes that is very nice, you can keep the alps :)
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
When I lay down on my back, my belly is the third highest hill in England. :--))
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
And if it still is while you fantasise about your favourite host, it says quite a bit about..both :)
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
Only climbing I have done, and it wasn't serious climbing, was in the Great Smoky Mountains of USA. Compared to most mountains in the Alps or Pyrenees, one might say the Smokies are mere mole-hills ;) but they are beautiful, serene, and one of God's most beautiful places on earth.
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
I climbed from the parking to the base of El Capitan. Just looking straight up its 3,000 foot face scared the shit out of me. But more power to you!
RE: MOUNTAIN CLIMBING
Most of my climbing has been in the Rocky Mountain region with a few sidetrips to California (Half Dome), Wyoming, and the Gunks. Sex and climbing are essentially the same -- good placement of a piece in a perfect crack and it will hold you forever.
Expand number of rooms for each host to be live in
I propose making it possible for any host that chooses to have 7 open rooms at a time up from the current limit of 2. She could be live in Non Adult, Glamour, Little Shy, Not So Shy, IA, Fetish, and Dungeon at the same time. Sound confusing? Not anymore confusing than it is now.
RE: Expand number of rooms for each host to be live in
Of course much more confusing! How would a girl still be able to pretend she is "little shy" if she also has an "instant action" sticker? Obviously members would ask her for action in her cheapest room...
Besides try to figure out the management of one-to-one requests? To be honest, she should close 6 rooms if starting a 121 and what if she is already in open sessions in other rooms? and I don't mention other sites...

One Sunday At Breakfast
One lazy Sunday morning the wife and I were quiet and thoughtful, sitting around the breakfast table when I said to her unexpectedly, "When I die, I want you to sell all my stuff, immediately."
"Now why would you want me to do something like that?" she asked.
"I figure a woman as fine as yourself would eventually remarry and I don't want some other arsehole using my stuff."
She looked at me intently and said: "What makes you think I'd marry another arsehole?" :--)

Canada Day.......another riot in Vancouver to celebrate? I love how Canadians party....and I thought you were the polite North Americans! :-))
RE: CANADA DAY!!
yeah, all Canadians are like that because a few idiots did that. Yeah, that makes sense, makes complete sense. You must be some kind of scientist with a high IQ. Or you must be some Alien race with infiniate knowledge. Or maybe you're Stewie from Family Guy...is that you Stewie?!?
RE: CANADA DAY!!
yeah, just a"few" idiots....who also did the same thing in 94 when they lost the stanley cup the first time. Hmmm, how many is a "few" in Canadian?
RE: CANADA DAY!!
yeah, everyone from Canada is from Vancouver, BC. We all just branched out to the rest of Canada...makes perfect sense. I was blind but now I can see!! OH PRAISE THE LORD!!! I knew Jesus was real...even though everyone laughed at me for believing in it, BUT I KNEW HE WAS REAL!! =-D Thank you for showing me the light, this was a blessing in disguise
RE: CANADA DAY!!
when visiting Canada then you have to visit Nunavut...its where the Inuks (Eskimos) live and its quite the experience! Depends what time of year you come around you'll be able to see the Northern Lights. I can send you pictures if you like from last years northern lights =-D

RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
ur the mistress on the side dear sorry :(
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
sorry to be mean, but it doesn't sound like he loves you, in fact it sounds like he is using you and keeping his girlfriend which he prefers. Are you sure he has not been with anyone else as well?
You say you are happy and he treats you well, but sounds to me like he knows how to keep you around. I don't think i can convince you though and i'm afraid you will most likely get hurt when the time comes he has to make a decision. Remember he is having sex with her too, and buys her the same flowers he buys you, whispers into her ear the same way he does with you, but his friend and family know only about her.
even if he dumps her and goes with you, can you be sure he won't cheat on you as well?

RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
Sorry to say that you are the "forbidden secret" which puts you #2 and it will continue unless she leaves him and then you could be #1 and he will find another #2. One just isn't enough for some guys!
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
he doesn't tell family and friends about you becos as you said he met the other woman a year before you and have already told them about her. I imagine he doesn't want everyone to know he has 2 gf's at once
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
This is simple. Keep banging him until you get tired of him. Then find another guy to have sex with. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
does anyone see this ending well?
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
Good idea!! Make sure you take a picture when you tell him and post it here...hehe
RE: guy have 2 gf: he hide one of 2 relationship from friends, what does this mean?
Maybe he believes that he really loves you too.... but he wants his cake and to eat it too. Maybe he's just a liar and good at stringing a woman along by pushing all the right buttons.
Either way, you can't be with someone who has another woman. It's a simple as that. The fact that he is not faithful to his first girlfriend suggests he wouldn't be faithful to you either, even if he decided to choose you.
Try finding a man who is loyal to you and shows his love in REAL ways, with commitment and faithfulness....rather than just being smooth and whispering romantic things in your ear.
You know...words are easy!
.. Or maybe just consign yoruself to a life of using men casually as much as they use you, like one of the more cynical respondents said here. Although I never met a happy, contented, warm person who did this.

If he really loves both girls, he wil make a choice. If he does not he will end up hurting both those girls he loves.
I don't buy the "innocent victim". He needs the strength of his convictions.

anonymity in forums
Do people think we should have to post here with our member names and host names?
Before you answer, remember, that right now that both hosts and members can have multiple accounts so it would be easy for hosts and members to post with accounts they don't actively use so everyone still could be anonymous. A member could just spend no money with that account and the host could just have no pics in her archives and a pick of her legs or or the wall or something as a profile pic.
That leads me to think that the only way to do this would be for members and hosts to have one account. Perhaps that actually might be a good thing, but I know many people wouldn't like that. Hosts like more than one session, and members want to be able to cheat on their host gfs, after all, lol.
If more than one account were allowed, then there would need to be some standard about how often that account was actively used. Also, hosts would need to show pics of their face so they couldn't hide behind faceless accounts, which many wouldn't want to do, or people would still not know who these hosts really are. If not, there would be 1000 posts in the forums about how a host posting with one screen name where she never showed her face in her pics is the same as a host with another screen name.
So I'm not really sure if there is a fair, practical way to take anonymity from the forums if hosts and members can have more than one account. But with so much negativity here, while it can help promote free speech when people can be anonymous, maybe a lack of anonymity would be a good thing.

RE: anonymity in forums
agree.then less members and hosts will be post bullshit and lie..we will know who post bad thing about us in forums.and members and hosts.but probably cc wont let it be..
RE: anonymity in forums
The way it is now even a non member can post in General Forum. I have no doubt CC thought this out when they opened the site. And maybe they thought members and hosts alike would be most honest about how they feel if they were anonymous.
If CC required every host and member to sign up separately and choose one name just to post in the forums, it would solve the multiple account issue.
But nothing is going to change. And that's fine with me and I'm guessing most others too.

"The funniest thing is when someone actually signs their posts, they get accused of trying to get attention..."
That is a very important point you bring up and at least in some cases why hosts do not post their screen names.

Another thread on anonymity. I'm for the "lets post under our real CC identity" movement. Though of course we all should do what is right for us, andf that is probably the answer. I really do not understand what anonymity gains you, or why members/hosts would prefer to post anonymously ...
RE: anonymity in forums
Then everyone would quit reading your threads if you used only one screen name because you write a book here constantly and they are so boring.

i not post my name cos when ever i have someone has always attacked me some how, even tho i would post something nice or someone posts something nice about me, someone would come along and say something rude or mean, even if they not know me. or we get accused of trying to drum up business...so i rather not post my name so i can stay clear of hassles.

Asking favorite hosts for a discount or free chow
I have never asked not even thought of asking a favorite host for a discount or free show. But from what I have observed in browsing and reading this and the viewer forum, it appears that at least in some cases some members do and do get both discounts and free shows. I had a video with a host 2 years ago and she asked for and I gave her my yahoo ID and have regretted ever since. I get unwanted IMs from her. And in several she offers a discount. Everyone is entitled to conduct their business the way they see fit, but I prefer doing business with those who let me make up my own mind when I am in the mood for this kind of entertainment.
RE: Asking favorite hosts for a discount or free chow
my credit card was blocked once for 2 weeks. I asked 3 diffferent hosts that I had seen many times for a free show. Only one did. She gave me 3 free shows, and then I kept seeing her for a long time. Now she has moved on, but she was great.
RE: Asking favorite hosts for a discount or free chow
I wouldn't mind the free chow, but I would never ask for a free show. Just ain't right. But, for a hungry man, the free chow would be nice.
RE: Asking favorite hosts for a discount or free chow
so remove and block her from ur yahoo, lifes too short for regrets
RE: Asking favorite hosts for a discount or free chow
Sorry that there are some hosts on here that are probably pushed by studio bosses to do such a thing. Also it could just be a very agressive host. Sorry to hear that. There is always one bad apple. I agree to block her on IM and resolve it forever :)

why is pricing such an issue?
why is it soooooo many people are complaining about the prices of vid chat? if you see someone u like, you click vid chat, then it tells you the price, if you don't like it, move on, why are people finding it so difficult?
yes maybe you like a certain host and she up's her price, .............and? the problem is what exactly? the host isn't here to make friends, if u don't like it find another! If you're looking for a lover, go to a dating website!
So people pleaaaaaaaaaase stop complaining about it, because it's getting real boring real fast.
And yes i am complaining about people complaining, but it is a re-occuring topic, and there are more interesting things to complain about! :p

It is what it is and there are plenty of hosts to choose from at a price for all can afford. I think that some feel they should be able to pick the host....pick what that host will do and at what price the member wants to pay and that is not how it works.
Also tired of the complainers or complainer changing identity's!

RE: why is pricing such an issue?
I hardly think complaints are based on gender. I think plenty of men and women complain in the forums. And instead of considering the merits of complaints and suggestions, now it is about attacking people instead of what they say and addressing the issues.
At this point, there really is no point in posting about suggested improvements and similar issues. We might as well just talk about things like "Do hosts actually meet members?", "Happy Birthday", and other things that have nothing to do with how CC itself actually is run. Pricing, categories, open versus 121, ratings, et cetera shouldn't even be permitted as topic of discussion.

RE: why is pricing such an issue?
Your writing and your bitterness show even though your anonymous names change!! Too funny! You are right out there in the front attacking anyone that doesn't agree with you. Take a vacation :))
RE: why is pricing such an issue?
Hmmmmm. Take a vacation? Stay away from CC? That is probably a good idea.
I think I rather spend my time and money elsewhere. The forums are one reason I liked CC and would spend most of my online money here. It used to be people could discuss things much more nicely. Now, anything that someone disagrees with is greeted by various forms of "You understand nothing", instead of people taking the time to nicely try to make others understand.
Maybe traffic is slow since it is summer so hosts feel more threatened and have more time on their hands to post and vent. And as for guys, well guys are always attacking each other so that's nothing new, lol. But with such a nasty environment, the sense of community that is... I mean... was CC... is now gone.
Just look at the "OMG" post regarding ratings saying I posted just to argue. I based my post on emails I see from CC to hosts. I was basically just repeating what I had recalled and my understanding of things. Maybe I recalled things incorrectly, but it had nothing to do with wanting to argue. Heck, I posted the thing about anonymity as a potential way to reduce arguments.
It isn't about bitterness. I think disappointment would be a better word. People disagreeing with me doesn't matter. But It would be nice for them to take a mature attitude when they do. I've posted a lot of things over the years that people thought were bad ideas, but only recently has the discourse become so nasty. And then I get sucked into it too and sometimes act in a way that maybe I shoudn't.
Nobody will miss me here, in these forums, I am sure. Well maybe you will since I seem to enterain you, lol. But I spend quite a bit here so some will definitely miss my money. And I would imagine other people are being driven away to based on my seeing a new host from CC on that "other site" all of the time.
As an individual member, I mean nothing. But in the aggregate, the members being driven away do mean a lot. Soon this site will be a bunch of money slave members chatting with just the top hosts with a few lower priced hosts picking up the scraps from less wealthy members that are left behind. We see posts that indicate this trend quite often.
So, I will take your advice. Take a vacation. Only chat with a few hosts that like me just as I am (and often agree with my posts by the way), and move on. Things are much easier when you just look at online sites as all about sex, anyway. When you try to make them something more such as a place where you can freely exchange ideas and make friends, you will often be disappointed.
It all started for me 8 years ago when I made some friends and actually visited them. In some ways, I wish that never happened. I wouldn't have had such high expectations for what to expect on a site beyond sex. I would have saved a lot of time and a lot of money. But at least I know that I helped a lot of people pay for school, operations, et cetera, and not by video and stripping, but simply because I knew them well enough and sent it directly. Yeah, a few probably lied, or probably just didn't deserve my help, but at least I know I met a few nice people and helped them have better lives. And nobody here can ever take that away from me.
So I like your idea. I will pay what will surely be a $3000 bill this month (or more... I'm scared to open the bill, lol) and move on other than an occasional visit to a few people I think of worthy of my time and money. After all, I am just some cheap idiot whose ideas are worth nothing.
By the way, don't bother to respond. I will not be reading it. It will either be another attack, sarcastic remark, or something to that effect so really there is no need for me to do so, is there?
Have a good day.
I think I rather spend my time and money elsewhere. The forums are one reason I liked CC and would spend most of my online money here. It used to be people could discuss things much more nicely. Now, anything that someone disagrees with is greeted by various forms of "You understand nothing", instead of people taking the time to nicely try to make others understand.
Maybe traffic is slow since it is summer so hosts feel more threatened and have more time on their hands to post and vent. And as for guys, well guys are always attacking each other so that's nothing new, lol. But with such a nasty environment, the sense of community that is... I mean... was CC... is now gone.
Just look at the "OMG" post regarding ratings saying I posted just to argue. I based my post on emails I see from CC to hosts. I was basically just repeating what I had recalled and my understanding of things. Maybe I recalled things incorrectly, but it had nothing to do with wanting to argue. Heck, I posted the thing about anonymity as a potential way to reduce arguments.
It isn't about bitterness. I think disappointment would be a better word. People disagreeing with me doesn't matter. But It would be nice for them to take a mature attitude when they do. I've posted a lot of things over the years that people thought were bad ideas, but only recently has the discourse become so nasty. And then I get sucked into it too and sometimes act in a way that maybe I shoudn't.
Nobody will miss me here, in these forums, I am sure. Well maybe you will since I seem to enterain you, lol. But I spend quite a bit here so some will definitely miss my money. And I would imagine other people are being driven away to based on my seeing a new host from CC on that "other site" all of the time.
As an individual member, I mean nothing. But in the aggregate, the members being driven away do mean a lot. Soon this site will be a bunch of money slave members chatting with just the top hosts with a few lower priced hosts picking up the scraps from less wealthy members that are left behind. We see posts that indicate this trend quite often.
So, I will take your advice. Take a vacation. Only chat with a few hosts that like me just as I am (and often agree with my posts by the way), and move on. Things are much easier when you just look at online sites as all about sex, anyway. When you try to make them something more such as a place where you can freely exchange ideas and make friends, you will often be disappointed.

RE: why is pricing such an issue?
The complaints are about greed. Greed is a worthy topic for complaints. $4.00 a minute is not greed?
RE: why is pricing such an issue?
Hosts are limited to a max of $5 in open and $6 in 121. Beyond that, it is whatever the free market will bear. If a price is too high, move on.
RE: why is pricing such an issue?
you have no idea as to the circumstances which made the host charge that much, after all if he or she charges too much they will never have enough viewers to make enough money. I don't think it is greed as most (yes i know, not all) the hosts i have meet are students trying to make ends meet!
All i can say is, u want someone to talk to, go to glamour or meet new friends, if u want someone to pull out a dildo and use it, go to instant, if u want something inbetween go to alil shy or not so shy, pay the price have a good time, and stop complaining on here about it

RE: why is pricing such an issue?
hmmm I don't recall asking your advice on who to see or not see. The fact is that $4.00 per minute is more money than 99.999999% of the other people in these girls countries' make., including the president. And you are talking about making ends meet?
RE: why is pricing such an issue?
Your statements are so untrue. It is typical for a professional person to make much more than that an hour plus they stay busy the entire time like a Dr. with 5 patients every 15 minutes. The point it that is is a big issue to you but not all and who are you to say what a host deserves to make?? It is only your choice to not see that host so quit your complaining. It is not your choice to say that she is greedy to show her body for any price!! It is her choice!!
RE: why is pricing such an issue?
hmm where to start, i know
1st, i don't remember asking you to respond to my my statement, and if u didn't want anyone to give you their opinion then why make a comment in the first place. I did want people to respond, thats why i wrote mine.
2nd, most hosts don't even charge $4 a min, most i've seen charge between $1-$2 a minute
3rd, $4 a min is alot, but they will not be in video chat 60 mins per hour, 8 hours+ a day, so im not sure how u can make that comparison to someone who has a standard hourly rate, like the president
4th, civil service pay, including politicians is never as good when compared to private sector
5th, the president of which country? The same country as the host in question? Last i checked a atlas, there was more then one
6th, im not advising you which hosts you may see and which you shouldn't. I never even met you before, in fact i have not mentioned you or any hosts by name at all, i asking why host prices and now i think of it, host categories, is such a huge topic for so many people, particularly when the charges and categories are cleared displayed before even entering their rooms.
7th, the hosts, as far as i know, don't work here for free, some of that income goes to camcontacts. No where on here does it state this is a charity, but maybe that is a good way to raise alil money for some charities on some occasions and maybe a topic for another discussion.

I don't know what country you live in, but in the US that is not true. The private sector has fallen way behind federal workers.

RE: about ratings
Sweetie, just because you were told by a guy he gave you 5 stars doesn't mean it's true. All votes count as far as I know?
RE: about ratings
This would be better answered by hosts in chathost forum but I will try to explain. The last ratings work based on the last 10 ratings that you got. 1 viewer coming into video and rating you a 5 does not give you an instant 5 or raise your rating if the other 9 are low ratings. It is an average of the last 10. Also if a viewer comes into your video several times in a day and rates you 5 each time, only the last rating from that viewer will count is my understanding.
It certainly is not an ideal system or even fair for that matter because many hosts that have had hundreds and thousands of viewer ratings can have her rating score reduced by one low score. It is not based on the ratings from the beginning for the host.
I hope that better explains. It is more than one person rating you low in a days time.

RE: about ratings
and if in the last 10 votes 3 are from the same viewer but in different days, will them be count?or only the last one?
RE: about ratings
1. last vote from each member on a given day, CC time, counts
2. only two of the 10 (not 3) can come from one viewer, regardless of how many accounts
3. a minimum of 3 members is needed to calculate a rating (i never understood that since it is two votes per member and that would be 6 votes, not 10, but anyway, that is what CC says)
4. votes are counted even if the viewer stays 10 seconds, but CC tries to control manipulation of ratings

RE: about ratings
I am not sure what you are talking about 2 times instead of 3? If a viewer comes to a host once per day for 3 days in a row and rates her...all three count!!
Also, your comment: "but CC tries to control manipulation of ratings" is not what they claim when there is questions regarding a rating. They claim it is all electronically controlled and they do not have anyway of monitoring or changing a rating :)

RE: about ratings
1. Let me be more clear. First, CC only counts the last vote from a member each day. I think we all agree on that.
Second, 10 votes are used to calculate your rating. Up to two of those 10 can be from one viewer, not three or more of the 10. So, if you had 10 sessions total over three days (day 1, day 2 and day 3), and member x was in three of those sessions, each on a different day (one vote day 1, one vote day 2, one vote day 3). and the other seven sessions were with different members each time, this would give you 10 votes over 3 days, BUT CC would only count member x's votes from day 2 and day 3, not day 1. They would look to a time before day 1 and use the last vote from someone other than member x.
I could be wrong about this, and they limit it to 3 votes, not 2, but I think I am correct. If you can post something from CC that shows I am not right, please do so.
2. They don't have people on their staff monitoring everything, but the program they use to calculate ratings looks for unusual patterns to try to throw out improper votes so that the ratings are fair. I don't think they want anything more than that said.
This doesn't mean that they are doing things 100% perfectly, but if you are worried that the same guy can rate you one star 20 days in a row by being in video 10 seconds, I don't think that is a real concern. Similarly, having the same guy rate you 5 stars 20 days in a row also probably won't work if he is staying a very short time each day. And I would advise against trying to manipulate the ratings since this can actually hurt you.
The one thing I have been told is that when a viewer chooses not to vote, it can hurt her rating. I am not sure if that is correct, but if it is, I think that should be changed.

RE: about ratings
BAN all the countries where you know there are alot of studios and hosts. Worked for me, no more in and out viewers. I noticed it from the very same day I went through and banned all those countries, I hardly EVER get those in and out viewers now.
RE: about ratings
The 5 minute rule does not work because on this site and every site I have ever been to, the site expects the viewer will know in the first minute or 2 that the pvt is not going as expected and he is advised to leave.
RE: about ratings
That applies to viewers she is talking about something totally different and there is no min here to rate.
RE: about ratings
you just didnt get it... if viewer enters in video, and in first seconds he notice that host dont look like her profile photos, host have bad attitude, bad light and camera... so do you think that this viewer should still spend 5 minutes in video before he can vote and give 1 star? thats the problem.
RE: about ratings
yes i am not a native english speaker, so what?
are you this same east-european host who recently moved to USA and after spending there 6 months already talk like "this is America and we dont haggle..."
You forgot one thing... this is CC, internet... it is world wide community and most viewers and hosts are not native english speakers but that dosnt mean they cant have something smart to say, unlike some hosts who really can show bad attitude during first seconds in video... in your case it took only 15 seconds to read my post and u already show bad attitude on your reply by talking negative about my english skills.

RE: about ratings
What?! I never been in US, so you are very wrong. Second I said nothing negative about your english skills, reread my post. But in order dont rate hosts for not good lighting or camera, better check photos bfore enter video-chat.
RE: about ratings
if you read my original post
"if viewer enters in video, and in first seconds he notice that host dont look like her profile photos, host have bad attitude, bad light and camera... "
maybe u missing the first problem, if host dont look like her profile photos it wont help to check photos before enter in video.
and what did you mean with this: "And more are you not a native english speaker? Looks like that." for me it seems like a negative comment about my english?
You are just banging your head against the wall when you dont want to admit that it will be a problem if viewer has to stay 5 minutes in video before he can vote, because there always will be some hosts who should get 1 star based on first minute in video.

Price negotiation
In response to several posts about members telling hosts their price is too high, I have my own take on the situation. In most cases if I see a price that IN think is too high, I just move to the next host. But, I did ask a few hosts if they were open to negotiation on their price, and a few were. Now asking if a host is flexible on her price and complaining her price is too high are two very different things.
I don't most hosts are flexible on price, but it never hurts to ask. After all most members ask what a host will or will not do in pvt. So I think in some cases it is acceptable to ask if there is any price flexibility.

RE: Price negotiation
I didn't think there were any hosts from Tijuana, Mexico here but there must be a few. Do you ask the same thing when you go to the store and want a lower price? If so how does that work for you??
It annoys me when a member asks for a lesser price when the viewers that come into video feel it's well worth the price that I charge. Also, the prices on this site are much less for the most part than other sites, so I think if you can't afford a host (just like all purchases in life) then you should just move on. I don't think that is good advice to spread through the membership and could instead hurt their chances of seeing a host. I block members that ask so they don't have to be tempted any further.

RE: Price negotiation
I live near Tijuana, so I'm there fairly often. The strippers and prostitutes often (as in, most of the time) reduce their prices once you start negotiating. So, the answer to your question is: Yes, it works. I know from first-hand experience.
RE: Price negotiation
Well that is great! Then I think it would be in your best interest to continue to shop there especially when looking for prostitutes since this site doesn't provide that service :) You might even get some extra surprises that you didn't even have to pay for...lol
RE: Price negotiation
Since you brought up prostitution... a great joke about it:
*******************
The train was traveling along when a beautiful young woman entered the compartment which was deserted except for a businessman reading his paper. The man peered over his paper and asked, "Would you let me fuck you for fifty dollars?"
"Certainly not!" exclaimed the young woman, and the businessman returned to his paper.
A short while later he looked across again and said, "Would you let me fuck you for five million dollars?"
After a brief pause, the woman replied, "I suppose I would." Again the man returned to his newspaper.
A few minutes later the man asked, "Would you let me fuck you for five dollars?"
"Certainly not!" replied the young woman, getting angry now. "What kind of girl do you take me for?"
"We've already established that," replied the man. "Now we're just haggling over the price!"
***********
The lesson: We all have a price. And all we're really doing is haggling over what that price is.

hmm... lets imagine you go to a new hairdresser and ask a hairdo, and she give you a price that is 2X the price that you paid to other hairdresser who done your hair earlier... are you really sure you just turn around and go out without asking if this hairdresser would negotiate about the price?
RE: Price negotiation
I don't know where you are from but no there is no negotiation on prices at stylists and salons here...this is America and we don't haggle although I do believe the original viewer is also American and feels it appropriate here :) We have freedom of choice to shop wherever we choose to pay the price that fits our budgets but it would be considered rude in most instance if you offer to pay half of the price for a service. They would tell you what I tell the very few members that come into my room and want a lesser price "I think that you should shop else where". I work at my job just like everyone else and I don't know of too many people that are willing to reduce the hourly or salary jobs that they work and would be very upset to be asked such a request. I think that members that suggest such things should reverse the question and ask themselves if they would accept less from their jobs and what their reaction would HONESTLY be.
RE: Price negotiation
We don't haggle in America? What are you talking about?
You never bought a car? You never bought stereo equipment from a smaller store as opposed to Best Buy? You never asked your hair dresser when she says she is going to raise her price if she could keep you at the same?
Rarely, can you negotiate at a huge store like a Best Buy or Macy's or something, but you can always negotiate with smaller stores and with individual operations. And if you are not, then you are wasting a lot of money.
The difference with a host is that she may feel that you are saying "I want to see you but you're just not worth that much to me," and take things personally. A host that is mature and realistic, however, would see that people have different economic situations and also regardless of economic status, still like to pay less even if it is for the Rolls Royce of cars or the Rolls Royce of hosts.
Personally, I don't usually ever ask for a price reduction from a host or a password because it feels awkward because a host is a person, not a car. Still, I don't think it is wrong to ask, and a smart host would ask herself if she still could do okay at a lower price for that one member, or even a few. dropping from $2,00 by 10% to $1,80, for example would only cost her $6 in one hour at most (except if it is an 80% member) and could be the difference between a lot of members and just a few.
I understand how you feel, but I think you are taking things too personally. You came to CC to work. It is nice to be respected, but with all due respect, you are working on a porn site. Are you really expecting respect from a bunch of perverts? If a guy asks for 10% off and traffic is slow, perhaps you should do it. If you have enough regulars, or think too many guys will notice the reduction so it isn't worth it, then don't. But focus on what brought you here... the money... and look for respect in better places.

RE: Price negotiation
Hi member (categories) sorry but you don't disguise yourself well.
Again you are trying to convince readers of something that seems so right to you but obviously not many hosts would buy into your logic. Apparently you haven't read the answers from hosts or you would understand that there are other complications to doing such a thing. It is good business sense for hosts to not lower her price and have other viewers (including her regulars) see a reduced price. Of course you only see things from your own narrow minded perspective though. Instead of always trying to figure out what hosts should do and not do ....why don't you go negotiate a car or stereo that will keep you entertained.

RE: Price negotiation
Hi person that cannot read very well. Let my quote myself, and perhaps this time you wil understand plain English:
"If you have enough regulars, or think too many guys will notice the reduction so it isn't worth it, then don't."
I considered what you said, and specifically recommended that if she thought it would be a bad idea to lower her price in her situation, than don't do it. You were so anxious to go on the attack, you completely missed my point.
I look at the forums as a place where we can discuss things inteligently. Apparently, for you, the forums are a place to attack whenver and wherever you can even when such attacks have no merit whatsoever.

RE: Price negotiation
Tired of your logic which is very one sided. You don't have to repeat yourself over and over. Your point is obvious the first time you write and it does not come with a lot of perspective from all sides. You don't have to tell the hosts how to run their business for you. They figure it out with help from other hosts :)
RE: Price negotiation
I specifically show that I take both sides, yet you continue to attack me anyway. And again, only suggestions are made. I didn't insist that anyone does anything. And I even said that I don't like to ask for reductions, and almost never do, because it is awkward given that I TAKE THE HOST'S PERSPECTIVE and understand it 1) can be insulting and 2) can be bad for business. One host even recently offered me a discount next time I visited her, and I keep visiting her without accepting the offer and asking that she fulfills her promise to me.
Is the appropriate answer to every topic here "just let the host do what she wants"? Is it completely inappropriate to make suggestions or give one's perspective?
Even when I AGREED WITH YOU and quoted myself to show that to you, you attacked me. Clearly, this is some kind of personal issue you have with me, or you just are some bitter person that likes to use the forums to put other people down.
You know what, after all this BULLSHIT, I think I will seriously consider just visiting my host friends and taking the rest of my money elsewhere. I spend several thousand a month here, and I rather spend it with people that treat each other with respect instead of all of this bullshit.
Whoever suggested that we shouldn't even have forums is right! You can't even agree with someone without being attacked. Unfuckingbeliveable!!!

RE: Price negotiation
Your comments are unsolicted advice to hosts how to run their business. Also, a lot of sarcasim and rudeness. Why don't you just let the hosts do what they think is best in their business and you just act as a member:) The hosts are NOT comparable to Cars or Stereo equipment and they are very clear on how to run their business and they have the advise of other hosts that DO understand this business. Your guidance isn't exactly warranted considering you have never been a female host on this or any other site.
Part of your comments:
I understand how you feel, but I think you are taking things too personally. You came to CC to work. It is nice to be respected, but with all due respect, you are working on a porn site. Are you really expecting respect from a bunch of perverts? If a guy asks for 10% off and traffic is slow, perhaps you should do it. If you have enough regulars, or think too many guys will notice the reduction so it isn't worth it, then don't. But focus on what brought you here... the money... and look for respect in better places.
Regardless if I am on this site or not....I do deserve respect whether you think so or not!! You wouldn't be welcome in my room with that attitude!!

RE: Price negotiation
Try not quoting things out of context next time. I also said the following:
"Personally, I don't usually ever ask for a price reduction from a host or a password because it feels awkward because a host is a person, not a car."
I clearly showed that I respected hosts, looked at them as people, not objects, and tried to take their position. I just said that CC wasn't a place to expect respect, not that it shouldn't be given. My comments make that 100% clear. And you would be very surprised how many hosts truly like me, want to meet me, talk to me on yahoo even if I almost never visit them in video, seek my advice, et cetera. And a lot of times they agree with what I say here, but they simply don't post about it.
And as for giving unsolicited advice, I was responding to a topic in the forum. I am not allowed to do this? Only you and people that agree with you are?
Oh wait, I agreed with you, but I guess that I am still not allowed to respond. No. That is not even correct. YOU AGREED WITH ME SINCE I POSTED THAT IT MIGHT BE BAD FOR BUSINESS FIRST!!! It seems that I do understand a host's perspective. Why? Because I talk to hosts all the time about issues here.
Tell you what, if you post your name, I will be happy to never visit you since this is what you want. I will not be posting mine because just like with anonymous voting, I think this allows for a free flow of ideas, and anyway, my host friends usually know what I think and can tell what posts are mine. But the way you mischaracterize me and my words, I really don't want to deal with problems from new hosts I may visit. I would like a fair chance to get to know them that isn't inhibited by your quoting me out of context, et cetera.
I certainly respect your right not to use your name, but since you don't want me to visit you, and it was your idea that I shouldn't, just put your name here, and I won't. I am sure that you feel you have said nothing that would keep members from your room since you are 100% correct in all that you say and it may even be good advertising for you, so take advantage of the opportunity. If not, I respect your decision, but unfortunately, I might meet you one day in your room so consider if you want to take this risk, lol.
I have nothing more to say on this issue since it is obvious that even when we agree and even when I show that I do in fact try to take the host's perspective and look at them in a respectful manner (even though I suggested she really shouldn't be looking for respect here, I do it anyway), you will still find a way to attack me even it means quoting me out of context to prove your point. There is no reason to even try to have a rational conversation with you. You attack people that agree with you so what's the point of even trying?
Have a nice day and a nice life. Good luck to you in your future endeavors.

RE: Price negotiation
Oh you poor thing! Nobody is attacking you but why in the world are you telling hosts how to run their business?? You don't think they know??
Attacked?? You are totally out of line with your remarks. Don't tell hosts how to run their business!! If you don't want to see them that is fine. None have asked you for your opinions about what they should or should not do.

RE: Price negotiation
Wow someone with a brain that can actually think in advance!
I never asked and never will ask for a reduced price to any host, but i find it of a total lack of respect to their regulars when i see someone doing so. Far from being a smart move, i have to say.

RE: Price negotiation
Sometimes I change my price just to see what happen. I never had complaints about it from my viewers, seem my regulars dont pay much attention at my price, of course if its not a big difference.So I dont understand why someone from them feel offended because yesterday I had 1.5$ and today back to 2$. Probably they are not cheapers, as you.

Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
Unlike member (categories) suggestions vis a vis category changes, some viewer suggestions actually do get put in place. The most significant being the 4 screen sizes, including full screen. This was done despite much protesting from a small vocal group of hosts from Glamour Girls.
I think with enough demand from viewers we can get a Voyeur View installed on site. One that can be unlimited, limited to a certain time or disabled completely by the host. It is a proven money maker for all sites that have it. The member who uses can not vote, can not type, and can be completely unknown to the host and her viewer in pvt.
Now even though a host can disable this feature, there will be hosts that don't want others to have it, just because they don't like it. It makes no sense to me but I see this shit all the time in the real world too.

RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
No thank you....you must be in hardcore like Not So Shy or IA where chat is an option. I don't feel like a robot or a circus act with a new show every 20 minutes. Would prefer intimate conversation to get to know what my viewer prefers. Many hosts don't even like more than one viewer at a time. A lot of holes in that thought....sorry!
RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
This is a difficult issue. On the one hand, you made what is potentially a good suggestion, and it is one that allows hosts to retain complete freedom. On the other hand, you dared to try to change things on CC. I am not sure that is allowed unless you are a host.
I am not sure why hosts will have a problem with your suggestion since you allowed them to retain freedom, but I am sure some will come up with a reason. Perhaps they won't like it because a voyeur might be interested in nudity and as we all know, nudity is just for instant action. Or perhaps it will be because you really are trying to make CC like all the other sites because the voyeur feature would encourage nudity since hosts could make more money with voyeurs and give an unfair advantage over hosts that just want to chat.
I think your best bet is not to make proposals that would seem to have merit and to mind your own business. If you don't like CC just as it is, then I believe that the majority thinks you should just go someplace else. As a member, your job is to keep repeating "CC is perfect just the way it is" over and over, and to never forget this.
Of course, if you were a host, you would be allowed to make suggestions. You could do things like tell other hosts what price to charge and whether or not they should use toys in certain categories. You also could tell CC to change the minimum prices and to enforce what are now just guidelines and make them actual restrictions so, for example, toys could never be used in glamour.
But sadly, you are not a host, and as good as your idea may or may not be, you are not allowed to make suggestions. It is simply an unwritten rule here, and that unwritten rule cannot become a written rule until a host suggests that it should be actually put in writing.

RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
You have way too much time on your hands. I think you ought to find a nice chat host here, court her, get married, and settle down.
One thing I have learned, when people aren't paying attention to the "substance" of what you are saying, despite your endless repetitive attempts to get them to understand, THEY JUST ARE NOT INTERESTED! Women are notorious for this, in my experience... looool

RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
I gave up, lol. Let CC be CC. It is perfect just the way it is, after all, although hosts certainly do a lot of complaining among themselves for a site that is so perfect, lol. I just couldn't help but to make the above post.
I wouldn't have cared if people didn't like my idea. It just would have been nice to consider alternatives to deal with the issues I addressed if they didn't like it. And thinking the idea through more, it might give an unfair advantage to hosts that strip since they could have two sessions whereas a host that never wanted to strip or only strip for certain members, she could only have one. Perhaps the answer to that would be allowing only one open room at a time instead of two. Or maybe there is a better way to go altogether. But even if there is, I am certainly not allowed to suggest it.
But nobody wanted to really focus on the substance of the ideas. Nobody thought things through enough to show the flaw in my idea that I just pointed out. And nobody came up with different ideas.
Anyway, I've learned my lesson. CC is perfect. CC is perfect. It doesn't matter that two categories are identical. Why? Because CC is perfect just the way it is.

RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
Why do we constantly have to COPY other sites? Their prices are higher to offset the extras that you want. Would you like to pay more as base costs? Then there would be massive complaints about that.
These ideas also create major changes with the program and right now the way it exists members screen freezes constantly or hosts have problems....why create more just so it can be like another site. Also, those sites take a larger percentage and as a host I am not eager to have that change. I could go there at a higher price and to make the same money here with lower rates.
I know from the comments it seems so easy but look deeper and it is much more complicated. What if the hosts start leaving because unless they want that option they don't get any video chats?
There are beautiful girls here at lower prices and that is what attracts the members and works for the hosts too. No need to clone this site to others!!

No doubt you are one of the vocal minority that opposed the 4 screen size feature we currently have. Fortunately CC listens to their paying customers.

RE: Sone viewer suggestions do impact things on site
Well I am one of those (large)-paying members and the 4 screen sizes is no great enhancement. If the picture quality is poor to begin with then increasing the screen size just exacerbates the problem, increases the pixel size etc, and is still better to have a small screen to maintain a distinct image. A more fundamental change is needed, but I am not tech savvy enough to understand what: server perhaps? But the point is the same host can have a picture as sharp as a button full screen on other sites, but on cc (with the host using the self same camera equipment) the picture quality is no better than ever, just bigger. This is not a whinge, I accept the limitations by choosing to stay here, just facts that need to be aired.
OMG John Pinet is hilarious
But every time he says, "Get outta here, you fat bastard!" I think he's talking directly to me!
RE: Just wondering
STRIP - to take it off, to take it all off. but not like you are getting ready for bed, as in "rip 'em off, drop 'em down, hop right in and snore away" but more like erotically, sensually, slowly, teasingly a little here, a little there, taking it down a little back up a little, whetting my appetite, stimulating my desire, giving me just enough to see to get my hopes up then frustrating them, then rebuilding them/frustrating them, but each time, rebuilding a little more until I'm practically drooling and blithering like an idiot with lust, and then just as I cannot withstand any more without suffering permament brain damage or cardiac arrest, or having my hormones burst out of my abdomen like the alien creature in ALIEN with Sigourney Weaver, then go completely nude, with your hands suggestively carressing every inch of your body and your fingers eventually playing delightfully with the "land down under" until all my tongue hangs out, and my eyes begin to weep, and I experience one helluva explosion from my "territory out front", and I am left in a smoldering mass of melted down humanity, with one hand held aloft, and a hundred dollar bill in it, searching for the G-string to put it in.
Does that help?
I forgot the other question ;)
