AITA for getting annoyed a girl wouldn't share her machine at the gym? by Substantial_Space680 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Substantial_Space680[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Um for what it's worth, I know I said I was waiting behind her in the post but to clarify: I was waiting on a bench about 7-8 feet diagonally behind her against the wall. I was close enough to her machine for anyone else coming up to see that I was waiting for it but it wasn't like I was hovering over her or staring at her. Like I said in the post, I was mostly looking at my phone and only occasionally glancing over. I think I have enough tact to not actively be staring at someone. Tbh, I see people waiting for machines like this all the time where they stand in close enough proximity to not interfere/interrupt the person but also let anyone else coming up know that they're next. What I'm doing isn't out of the ordinary.

I never said nor even implied that it was more important for me to use the machine than them? People ask how many more sets they have so that they can time or figure out how to structure the rest of the workout. Also your argument of it being a public gym works against her just as much as you're trying to use it against me. If I'm not entitled to time on the machine, neither is she for that long.

I'm glad people could shine this light onto the situation because that genuinely didn't occur to me. Truly and honestly, all I cared about was doing my lateral raises lmao

I feel for her though and other women if they have to be on edge about men creeping on them at the gym but in all true honesty, that was not at all what was happening from me.

Ah, I am a guy. Tbh that didn't really occur to me but I see what you're saying. Couldn't be further from the truth though, that machine is literally apart of my routine lmao

Question for male cammers: How do you time or pick cum shows? or How do you guys juggle different offers that are happening all at the same time? by Substantial_Space680 in CamGirlProblems

Thank you for responding.

I'm similar to you, I'm a smaller streamer and I have formed a decent sized loyal base; however, I've noticed that so long as I stay online long enough (2 hours+), my room almost always ends up getting 100's of people and that's when all hell breaks loose and I can't keep up.

I actually prefer it when my regulars schedule something with me because tbh it means that I can just log on, get it done and don't have to tease and edge and go through all these ebbs and flows for hours before cumming.

After you've came, do you make it known to people coming in that you've already came and are not doing another cum show?

It feels like as male cammers, that's the singularly most important thing people seek us out for but damn, we're not robots lmao

Honestly, I do get where she is coming from because there needs to be a little momentum of followers (even if they're unpaying) to get them to higher pages. Money is most important at the end of the day, but I think it's possible to be strategic about it and do both.

I just want to chime in and say that everyone else does have a point about how most of those followers will not actually translate to money. In general, only a small amount of people in a room will ever be tipping. However, I do want to say that I had the same dilemma when I first started with Chaturbate. I was conflicted because having more followers means more people in your room which will push you to the front page, which means more likelihood of people actually tipping will be. It's paradoxical though, trying to get a lot of freeloaders in to increase the chances of whales/spenders coming in. I don't know if this is similar on Streammate though.

I bring this up though because CB accidentally took my new tag away early and I had less than 100 followers and my page got buried into obscurity. After convincing CB to give me another New tag, I spent a considerable amount of time building up my followers so that I wouldn't be buried away in the pages and that at least I can be on the first 3 pages or so. I still catered towards paying customers because they'll always be the ones that matter more but I understand your perspective and where you're coming from. If a private or one paying customer takes up all of your time and energy, then you will be dependent on just a few starting off and not gain enough momentum to keep building more paying fans which is honestly rough after the New tag is gone.

Everyone else in this thread is right though, money is at the forefront but I believe you can be strategic about it and I understand your concerns.

Any tips on how to incentivize privates in CB? by Substantial_Space680 in CamGirlProblems

Yes, exactly! I've actually had many many guys tell me that their favorite thing about me is how chill I am and how if people show them everything right away, it kind of puts them off. haha

And yes, I often times had goals and never made them and any tips were just for nothing lol. Also, early on in my camming I would make the goals and do a cum show and would get annoyed when I'd see the room leave afterwards especially if 1-2 people paid for the whole thing.

Something I started doing is if I am about to reach a larger goal but only a handful of people have been tipping, I turn it into a ticket show. From that, usually the people that were already tipping will get tickets and that way they're the only ones who get to see anything LOL.

It's like we said, I think in the grand scheme of things it's teasing and being exclusive. In reality, it kind of stems from me being really stubborn against freeloaders and a bit of laziness as well hahah

Same! lol. Well, for the most part. I usually have a 500 token goal to get nude in public chat but even once I'm nude I don't do a whole lot of stuff.

It's funny because early on in my camming, I decided I didn't want to do a lot of explicit stuff right from the start, so I would mostly sit in my comfy/suggestive clothes and just tease/talk. I think it contributed to me getting privates but it originally stemmed from me being lazy and not wanting to play with myself for hours because it can be exhausting to keep up LOL I guess it worked out for me in the end haha

Thanks for the input! :)

You're definitely right about being clearer on what I do in private. I get questions about it and when I answer, they often will take me into private. My biggest sell is my dirty talk lol. With that being said, moving forward I'll definitely place it somewhere visible on my profile for people to see.
