Members MsGuy Posted February 19, 2012 Members Posted February 19, 2012 TY, does it make any monetary difference to OZ whether I access F4F through MER or go direct? If MER gets a commish or otherwise benefits finantially, I'd just as soon click through from here (or even if it just makes the BF's birthday weigh a little less heavily on OZ's pocketbook ). I was about to PM you when the thought hit me that others on the board might feel similarly, so I'm posting the question here. Feel free to delete this if talking about board financial arrangements is a major faux pax or otherwise frowned upon by more knowledgable internet citizens. Quote

Feel free to delete this if talking about board financial arrangements is a major faux pax or otherwise frowned upon by more knowledgable internet citizens. I definitely makes a difference. If you connect from here we get part of the fee. We are most appreciative if members and visitors access through our portal. Helps pay the bills. Either way, the charge is the same to the user. Quote
Members Lucky Posted February 20, 2012 Members Posted February 20, 2012 Well, if it is a nickel a click, I've contributed a dime! Quote
Guest FourAces Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Well, if it is a nickel a click, I've contributed a dime! Lucky it isn't a pay per click fee that OZ and TY receive. They receive a small percentage of the amount of credits one purchases ... unless OZ has some different arrangement which I doubt in this case. Quote
Members Lucky Posted February 21, 2012 Members Posted February 21, 2012 Oh. Then I have contributed nothing! Sigh. But then, I don't flirt either. Quote

Guest EXPAT Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 I've had two bad experiences after doing a trial membership with them, so I won't make the attempt anymore. Quote
Members JKane Posted February 21, 2012 Members Posted February 21, 2012 I keep thinking a photo is gorgeous then clicking in and thinking meh! (At best...) Then I watch the guy stare off to the side and move his lips as he's reading for a while, almost never replying to the text that scrolls by... then I close the window. In the TV world, there are teleprompters and something interesting and similar for interviews where it projects the interviewer over the interviewees' lens. Why hasn't somebody come up with a webcams that do this? Still, vague eye contact would only make it a little more interesting... Quote

Why hasn't somebody come up with a webcams that do this? Still, vague eye contact would only make it a little more interesting... It depends on the guy as usual. Some are duds, others are not. I have seen some really hot guys with great personality give hot and fun shows. One gorgeous Colombian loved to put on great dildo show that climaxed (so to speak) in him shoving two large dildos simultaneously up his ass, repeatedly and then cumming on cue. I had seen it several times. Another Colombian would stroke and play with his baseball bat showing every prespective so nothing was missed. Yet others are detached or going through the numbers. It just depends on personality, time into their shift and time in the business (sometimes). I think Colombians tend to be a better show on average. I suspect the money they make goes further in their local economy. Quote
Members JKane Posted February 22, 2012 Members Posted February 22, 2012 Does any of that happen in the 'free' part of Flirt4Free or is it in the "Champagne Room" only? Quote
Members MsGuy Posted February 23, 2012 Author Members Posted February 23, 2012 JKane, I doubt you're going to see any double dildo action in free chat, lol. However, if you're registered, you can freeload a 'party chat' show at no cost to yourself (others will be tipping to pay for the performance). Just look for the small party chat label on the postage stamp model pix after clicking through from MER. For registering, you get a one time 200 credit bonus for free (US$20 worth) to play with, so you can tip a model or join a 'group chat' (50 creds) for a stated amount of time or even do a brief private show.

Members TampaYankee Posted February 23, 2012 Members Posted February 23, 2012 Does any of that happen in the 'free' part of Flirt4Free or is it in the "Champagne Room" only? I viewed most of the action in the early days of group chat before they developed the software to exclude nonregistered members. However, I usually catch a few freebies every week when models go off the reservation and let there hair down.. I mean briefs. Just last night I watch a beautiful hard-body Colombian shake his dick and balls in front of the camera for a good five minutes before he climbed back into his brief attire. Generally, newer guys are more prone to do it -- not many but occasionally. Also, more blacks and latins. Europeans and Americans are less likely and eurotwinks even less, but there is always the exception, according to my observations. Other times guys get really frustrated with no tips and lay out the bait to get things going -- what my hard-body Colombian was doing. Of course this is all luck.But if you don't check em out you'll never stumble across one of these events. Finally, there are some guys who never give a freebie and don't even woo the crowd shirtless. They suck!! Not worth checking out. You learn who these are rather fast. Quote
Guest gcursor Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I had to cancel Flirt4Free after a while. I had SERIOUS self-control issues with that membership. Most of the time, I'd go on there thinking, "Okay..I'll just see who's on tonight" and then I'd get on there and think, "OH MY GOD! I think he's the most beautiful guy I've ever seen!" and then I'd think, "He looks so lonely! Maybe I should help him out!" followed by money being deducted from my account I am SO glad that they can't use the guys from the FLIRT site in real life to sell things. Jesus! I'd be driving down the street and see guys selling cars. I'd drive over 5 people, a dog and a fire hydrant just to get into that lot for a new car that I couldn't afford. What if they sold houses? They'd say to me, "But sir, you've already bought five houses from me already today! Do you really have money for a SIXTH house?" I do still keep in touch with the guy from Croatia who's a very sweet guy. I also still wrote to this one Latin guy but we don't communicate all that much anymore. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 This reminds me of that house (I can't remember the name of it) in London where you go there and look through a one way glass and see all the boys and pick the one you want and then you go up to a room. So on my days off I'd go there and pick out 3 or 5 or 7 boys and then have them come to a room one at a time. How's that for indulgence. . . Quote

Guest FourAces Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Does any of that happen in the 'free' part of Flirt4Free or is it in the "Champagne Room" only? JK I have caught a fair amount of action for free. I even watched an entire fuck show recently... But that was truly the exception. Usually I guy will stroke for 5 minutes or so or show his sweet hole for a little while. A good way to judge which room might have some free action is one that has a lot of chatting happening. The regulars know who is more prone to be open in a open room and they tend to hang out there. Also if you are not a registered member do so. Its free plus you get 120 free credits plus you can watch Party Chat shows for free. Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted February 25, 2012 Members Posted February 25, 2012 Alessio gave a free show this morning just before 10:00 ET. I caught a good five minutes joining it already underway. Ten minutes later caught a free minute lead-in to a group chat for Jared & Dilan. Nice smooth Colombian twink shaking his dick and ass at the cam while the other was prepping to bottom just off cam.

Members MsGuy Posted June 19, 2012 Author Members Posted June 19, 2012 LOL, TY, the scoundrels at Flirt have loaded a direct transfer button to the Flirt site onto my Google tool bar (up there just to the right of 'suggested sites' & 'Get more add-ons.' No telling how long it's been there. They didn't ask permission and I just noticed. Think those scalawags might be out to cut out the middleman & dodge paying MER a commission? hahahahaha...it's enough to make you question the basic integrity of humanity; if you can't trust a porn site, who can you trust?

Though, if I had to guess, I'd suspect it's Google who's been tracking your browsing proclivities and giving you the direct transfers. Did they also provide you hot links to Aeroflot and Russian wedding chapels? MsGuy 1 Quote

Sorry, just saw this. How interesting. If it is F4F then the problem with some people is they don't understand the long term effects of pissing in the well. If it is Google then FUCK Google. I know that will get me on Big Brother's List. Quote
Members MsGuy Posted June 24, 2012 Author Members Posted June 24, 2012 With all due deference to lookin's superior expertise in all matters electronic, I suspect this is Flirt's doing. The button sports my Flirt nic and a logo that mirrors F4F's style. And Google hasn't done this for MER, which I visit more often than Flirt. All you guys get from Google is a line in my autocomplete address dropdown. Quote
Members lookin Posted June 24, 2012 Members Posted June 24, 2012 Thanks for the vote of confidence, MsGuy, but I don't have a clue how the Google Toolbar works, other than what I just read on this page. If I'm reading it right, the user (you) has to choose to install buttons. Here's a link that tells a website owner how to build a custom button for the user to click on and install on his Google Toolbar but, again, it looks like the user has to take the initiative and choose to click on it before it's installed. Haven't yet come across anything that suggests websites are 'pushing' hot links onto unwitting users via the Toolbar, and you just may be the canary in the coal mine. If the practice becomes widespread, I can definitely see the potential for low comedy to ensue. MsGuy 1 Quote
