My response to site-support blog


I TRIED to post a response comment in the blog -posted by Site Support, but it didn't show up... so, I decided to have at it -HERE... in my own blogs.

The Topic of the blog was titled:

Effective Immediately, Standard members no longer able to view webcams

...and here is the blog they posted:

Dear Members,

Unfortunately, as a Standard Member you will no longer be able to view webcams. We do apologize for the inconveniences this may cause you and encourage you to continue broadcasting your own webcam as well as use other popular features such as our<b> chatrooms </font></b>and instant messenger(s).

If you would like to become a Premium member, please visit Affiliates for information on our membership levels. This will give you complete access to photos and profiles.

If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us again.

Steve

****************************************

I advise that everyone sharing concerns on this issue, please visit their blog and post any questions and concerns that you might have, there... feel free to also post here, in response to my comment.

MY comment:

As a Standard member... you HAVE done just that to me/us -pimping us out and building your clientele numbers, thus, making money off of our being here and establishing a profile, simply because it is cause for others to join as paying members to obtain access to us.

Why SHOULD I pay to be bothered by countless other profiles, if I can not access the ppl I am interested in -because they are not paying members -or not Members that pay for GOLD ?

How should any Standard member reach a comfortable decision in investment when so many issues are arising for even those that DO PAY -and that become so unhappy, as a result, that they consider not renewing their memberships? I certainly am being more put off by what I have heard from those Paying members that I know -off the site that vent their growing dissatisfactions.

If you really are considering what ppl are saying and thinking ...because it IS -after all, the ppl that make it or break it for this sites success, then, I really hope you reconsider what is being voiced and that efforts are implemented when reaching a NEW and reasonable compromise with us ppl -and potential members both -the Paying and the Standard

-and this does NOT pertain to the web cam accessibility issues only... it is an OVERALL suggestion when it pertains to the incentives provided us potential Paying members and their investment of their money when they are making such decisions in determining what they will get BACK - even as standard members who have ALREADY provided this SITE with a wide variety of product and services!

Sure... I have EARNED a LOT of POINTS (-enough to invest on a pay membership, even) -BUT... what you offer is not incentive enough, if I factor in what I am looking for ... what I have ALREADY provided in service to this site with my presence as a standard member, alone and that FAR exceed what is being offered to me along with the issues posed by those, already PAYING MEMBERS.

I can get a drink -even a dinner for much less hassle ... so why would I want to become an under-paid service provider for this site when I give more of myself and get even less? ...and why the hell would ANYONE want to PAY a membership for that?!!

This site, wants to Play the go between... and wants us to pay for it while offering us -as their product, to each other... something we can do WITHOUT this site and let's not forget... This SITE -FriendFinder-x/ Penthouse IS making money... LOTS of money!!!

- but many members (paying and not) -like myself, have YET to FIND anything on here, that we haven't already the access to without paying FriendFinder-x for it. I hear of a LOT of meetings, hook-ups, gatherings and connections, but I hear MORE about the mishaps and disappointments than of successful FINDS -and I find that less than worth my precious money -unless something MORE is offered -for at the very least... MY TIME!

Apparently, there are other posts NOT being posted ...or not being posted in full and that may not be Steve's call, but yet ANOTHER glitch in the wonderful world of FriendFinder-x....

anyway... something ELSE I would like to know, Steve,... Is It True, that eventually this site is going to SEPARATE the paying and NON-Paying members? If so.... then already, my decision is made for me and a LOT of other members, because, quite frankly- This Is More than Enough Horse Pucky for ANYone to have to accept from a site that has pimped it's members out to each other -like product... WE are used... then we have to pay for it after we have racked in the big bucks for this site??? -I think THAT is crazy!

-and this gets me WHAT EXACTLY??? ...and exactly, How much MORE of that will I get as a PAYING member???

Give me a break.... everyone that is a member on this site (INCLUDING us, standard members) has made this site what it is...

-where's OUR CUT???? -and what form do I file for taxes?

Yeah... we're NOT happy -and we're growing in Vast numbers!

Gettin it -cuming and going ...\8

They are punishing the gold voyeurs not letting stds view their cams. They should at least let the gold invite who ever want to see them.

I have too many bugs in this handle. its tuff being a std member here.

I agree, Lovely- Maria. How is it that they can overlook the ppl that have already invested in this site -and what THEY are being refused -without refund?

I have to also add... like myself, many ppl -of both genders, aren't Guaranteed anything in the ppl they CHANCE hooking up with through this site... 'cept possible dangers and risks to one's life.

I have met a man who down right mislead me -hurting my family. OF COURSE- it was a chance I took, but if I am going to PAY for such a service, you'd think there would be a better screening process intact! There is NO such membership offered... NOT EVEN to the GOLD.

HELL this man is an EX-CON... was in prison for ARMED robbery! When did I come to find this out? .... SIX MONTHS AFTER I had been seeing him and after he had ALREADY established a relationship with me and my family! (...oh yeah- and he is STILL a SILVER member on here, Ladies -so be careful and anyone in the MD area who wishes to avoid this loser-liar... ex con- just write to me -I will gladly respond!)

I can't say that FriendFinder-x is 100% to blame -but to PAY to meet ppl -especially for adult relations, you'd expect MUCH more safety measures be implemented for the members that do PAY -or at least a membership with THAT Option!

They do it for dating services ...they screen ppl to make sure that what they offer is not some serial killer -or ex-con!
-and you're much more likely to get something for your money other than a hard time and a possible std!

IF they offered more safety for each member that pays more on a scale -gaged by what they pay- I would bet that more ppl would PAY for a gold membership.... BUT- that's NOT offered... and likely THAT won't ever be offered.

In this day and age... you have no clue what is lurking ANYWHERE when it comes to ANYone meeting up with a stranger... so if I am going to take that CHANCE- Make it more appealing by adding incentives -like safety! - by adding something that could benefit someone who doesn't see the rewards of paying for something they can damn well do all on there own!

The more safety ...the higher the cost in membership... and it can STILL be kept -even MORE SO, discreet and confidential!

I just think it is a raw deal for anyone -paying or not, to be be teased with certain props -then have them pulled away -just for someone (who could care less), but to thicken the lining of their pocketbooks!

I know of MANY encounters that were less than favorable for those who have met through the usage of this site.... REALLY BAD situations that played out due to there being so many risks...

-and that's my point... I knowingly take that risk NOW on FriendFinder-x... I know it when I choose to seek ppl outside of a site like this that I am taking such a risk.
So.... If I come to a site with a community of users -like this,... that are all taking That Same RISK... why should we have to pay when nothing they offered us before, has changed? meaning- nothing more is being offered.. it's just the same things we already had -only, now it's being offered in another - DIFFERENT Membership... that doesn't offer any REAL incentives to pay -it just means they are taking advantage of -and screwing with, the very ppl that already established the clientele for this Site. Make it safer... then I'll be willing to pay for something that is actually WORTH the price, because life IS prices less!

Just pisses me off.... I don't know... we could always get a class action suite or somethin' started to get our cut from what they (the Big Pimps) ALREADY made in profit from everyone who contributed to this site up 'til now-

...and apply that money to full paid memberships across the board ...and/or refunds for those that already paid! ?* ...or capes and eye patches for everyone for when we have our Pirate/ Super hero/ Super Villain -adult Party LOL

anyway... just rantin' -have to get it off my chest so the girls can breath a lil' easier! happyf;
