Why is OnlyFans so popular

[stickyvicky]

What about people who didn't get the email? Emails get lost all the time? I don't know, I just think it would be a big hassle. Let's say they answer the email 7 days after it's expired but they joined for the 1995 special. So now do they just get three more weeks I mean it's backdated the 7 days? Or now since the 19.95 special is over, now they have to rejoin again at 24.95? They could be pissy about it and just not rejoin? I think all business owners would experience a huge drop in income if this what's to become reality.

I don't know. I tend to disagree. But, as you know, I've got a hard exterior (it protects the soft, creamy interior, ) Like I said, the way I've felt, I would be nice and helpful as long as the customer was nice. If he started getting out of hand, I'd be glad to send him on down the road. I'm sure that's why most businesses don't stand up stronger. They're afraid of losing business. But are you really losing that much when you turn away some belligerent so-and-so who is causing you grief? If the person wants to go somewhere and post hate mail, I will utilize all the info at my command to haul him into court, sue him for libel and slander.

But I'm not a businessman, Vicky. You are. (Yes, I know, lol.) I am sure there are a lot of things I don't see or don't even know - most likely both. I'm sure it's hard for you and others, always having to fight this garbage. I just wish that more people could just sit up, see what's right, and just be responsible. I just have no desire to handle someone else's issues. I'm sure I would make a lousy businessman.

Have you ever watched Bar Rescue? I love it - especially Mia Mastroianni, lol. Anyway, Jon Taffer goes into these bars that have asked him for help. The bars are usually losing $4 - $6,000/month or so. Jon comes in and discovers that the staff is all drunk, nothing has been cleaned, the kitchen is filthy and the owner is sitting around doing nothing. I mean, he comes in and really rips them a new one. But by the end of the show, he has properly trained the staff, he has totally rebuilt their bar and the owners are again making money.

So I would be the "Before" bar owner. Jon would come into my place and scream "WTF ARE YOU DOING????" And I would have to say, "Well, duh, I don't know. Why do you think I called you."

Not so fast, Grasshopper.
I joined it a few months ago for our Fav StickyVicky - all was well until the end of the month and I noticed that I had paid nearly $200 for 10 or so other girls that I had no idea about. How did I get charged for joining all the other girls site???
The site itself was very cooperative with my request to refund my money AFTER I had contacted my bank and stopped payment on any future charges tot he site. It was a clusterfuck trying to determine how the extra charges happened but it was not me who charged anything to the site. I wound up having to close out one account and reopen with a different account that lead to me having to change several other payment agreements under that account.
Count me as the "GET OFF MY LAWN" guy when it comes to OnlyFans, I will not recommend it nor will I go there again. By the way, It was not as "personal" as advertised, and it felt like I was at a cheap strip club where the women made it clear that it was all about the money.
I may have rode into town on a turnip truck , but i was at least sitting in the cab.

Well, it doesn't solve the problem on the part of the companies, but I use a prepaid credit card for sites like that. It comes free with my bank account and works like a prepaid card for mobile phones, it can't be charged if it's empty. Not sure if such a service is available in the US.

[WalterB]

Sounds like a good idea Liz. They have pre-paid cards over here. But obviously I don't know the benefits of all banks, so don't know if my own bank provides such things. But, so far, my CC companies have been pretty good about protecting me. One thing I DON'T do is use my debit card for ANY on-line purchases. I use the credit card, then, if the charge is small enough, I'll send the extra amount along with my monthly CC payment. That way, the balance doesn't go up.

Honestly, I love OF for the daily interaction.
I've even started my own page and started making paid content a few weeks ago, it's so much easier than the cam site I use.

[LizLemon85]

Fun with onlyfans... I contacted their support because I have trouble logging in and only have audio when watching live shows.
I cleared my cache, tried different devices, didn't help. Support replied that they tested it, problem is on my side and everything works fine. Right now their servers are completely down. They take their share of the money and don't invest in their infrastructure. And the models have to deal with customers complaining...
I just send a tweet to them, probably they will be super scared of my wrath and my 26 followers

[stickyvicky]

Yeah I went to answer my messages there this morning and see they are completely down. 502 Bad Gateway. It happens all the time. The worst for the models is how difficult it is gettig our content up there sometimes..... it's so ridiculously slow and you have to sit and wait till it finishes processing to hit the send button. God forbid you forget what you are doing and click on a message or leave the page, you lose everything and have to start over... they at least changed that now where you get a warning message... Loyal fans is 1000 times better for customer service and for all content matters. You choose the file, press enter and can move on with your day. No sitting and waiting.

[LizLemon85]

They invest their money in getting non-porn influencers... In my opinion that shows their total lack of respect towards their clients (models and their customers). And honestly, I'm a bit annoyed that I have to pay 20 percent VAT on top of everything because I'm in the EU. I will look into loyalfans.

[stickyvicky]

Its back up now.... but its very slow.

[Andrew35]

I posted wrestling pics from event back in January and so I wanted to post more stuff, got told sorry until you are confirmed with an id etc you can post anymore so I went thru the process and have went thru several times and have been denied lol, told me that for starters they can't see my id (even though clear picture for both the selfie and id itself) my account isn't logged up to social account(I use Twitter for my account lol), and at one point even said they didn't know what I was doing with my account or going to do that it was clear lol.

Been thinking about telling someone I know to maybe look into using the other services as a back up and to make money on but not sure if I can if they take it as being bossy or that I know better.

[LizLemon85]

You could simply tell them that there's this other platform that may be an opportunity for them to make some money. I don't think that would come off as bossy (at least to me).

I give up arguing with OF support, they don't get the problem (or they don't want to). At the end of the day I'm probably talking to some poor person somewhere on this planet who makes minimum wage and has zero options to really change something.

[LizLemon85]

This is currently making the rounds on Twitter. I don't know where she got her information from, but if that's true, onlyfans and the models using it will be facing some problems.

[stickyvicky]

Everyone can switch to loyalfans. They are more honest and the platform is 1000% technically superior. My opinion.

I like both platforms but agree 1`00% that LoyalFans is easier and superior.

[LizLemon85]

Yay, another reporter scandalizing sex work, making people scared of losing their income and causing panic to hype up their article

[stickyvicky]

Just a normal day....

I'm sure that over time an honest operation would net much more money than grabbing it dishonestly. I suppose the problem is the phrase "over time"; some people don't understand the concept of patience.

[stickyvicky]

No, lol.. Leo is now a millionaire.... but it's just not enough. He promised a 5% lifetime referral fee to webmasters who referred their girls to onlyfans. Then 6 months in, he said "lifetime really only means one year".

I would never be able to live with the guilt of doing that. Guess that's why I'll never make the millionaire's club....
