RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
I don't just look at hair color. I'd have no problem with a redhead, esp. one who looked like Princess Gisele.
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
Well said :-) For me hair length is more important than colour... and I can be seduced by most ladies having beautiful long hair, whatever the colour.
Besides, hair colour doesn't mean anything in itself, it must also match skin complexion and eyes colour. Dying hair as a red head could be a bad idea for a girl with dark hair...

RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
I generally prefer brunettes, but on sites I look at the whole picture. If your body is hot and your rating is good, I could be seeing you soon..... unless you are bald. :p
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
Brunette would get my attention first. I would generally leave blondes till last :)
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
as far as hair color goes...........on top of the head,color doesn't matter as long as she's bald down "there" or at least trimmed. ;-)
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
I was, like many Americans, led to believe that blondes were hotter than brunettes and forget redheads. Over the years I have discovered that hair color does not make a hell of a lot of difference but from my experience brunettes are much sexier. I love redheads too but that is a now and then thing. Generally they are too white and freckly for my taste.
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
if you turn blondes upside down, you find they are really brunettes.
RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
black hair and red hair all the way.
blonde and brown is just too damn boring.

RE: blonde, brunette or redhead?
in pics i prefer blondes, sure! but at the end after chatting with girls, my favorites list contains 70% of brunettes!!
RE: hello to everybody =)
Stars show the agreement by members, no stars or few ones means that u r not a good entartainer. Good luck!
RE: hello to everybody =)
It is nice to conserve above 3 stars..and never less than 3.
If you are 4 stars rated in lil shy for example.. likely you fall in the medium of the whoisonlinepage.
Members like to choose their chat host from the medium of the who is online page. (statics tell so)

RE: hello to everybody =)
the number of stars also determines the display order in "Who's on line?" lists: girls with ***** come first. So for guys looking for a new girl to visit on this list will more easily find you if you are on top

RE: Hy i am a little sad today because i lose my stars i have 4 stars today :(
Lucky are the people that can hate you. Can any one hates the breeze and the limpid water. You are softer then the morning breeze and more transparent then the life water.
RE: Hy i am a little sad today because i lose my stars i have 4 stars today :(
I don't know if I should throw up, laugh, or feel bad. I have no idea if this host is being sincere or if this is just a ploy to get better ratings. All I can say is that a post like that is a very, very bad idea. As hot as she is, it would make me think that maybe I should avoid her.
RE: Hy i am a little sad today because i lose my stars i have 4 stars today :(
Hmmmmmmm. I just looked at her personal forum. Same type of posts in terms of the apparent warmness in her heart. Perhaps she is simply a very sweet, sensitive person or perhaps it is all an act. I really, really don't know.
To the host, I would recommend one thing, if you are truly honest in your post here and about what you say in your personal forum, I would look for closeness outside of the sites. You seem wayyyyyyyyyy too connected to your members and this site. I am very, very close to some hosts, but you seem to be trying to please the world. I sense that maybe you don't feel good about yourself and use the site to try to make people happy and get compliments so you have a better sense of self-esteem. I hope that I am wrong, but I worry about you.
If your posts are sincere, there is obviously goodness in your heart. Don't worry about your ratings or saying that all your members are important to you and things like that. You shouldn't need anyone to tell you that you are a good person. Just knowing that you are should be enough. If your posts are not honest, then I don't like that, but hey, we all know how things work here sometimes.

RE: Hy i am a little sad today because i lose my stars i have 4 stars today :(
You seem to have a good and healthy attitude about this. But just look at her most recent post abouve (Kisssss). Things like "I love you all"? What????? Hey, maybe that is just how she really is, but a woman with a bunch of naked pics that has members come into her room and wank and stuff...... "I love you all" just seems out of place. I am sure she has members that she is friendly with, but to tell a bunch of people that you do not know, many of whom are guys that just want to wank to your body, that you love them? There is friendly and warm-hearted and then there is the unusual. Something seems wrong to me with her attitude. Being nice and sweet is one thing, but the intimate, personal connection to EVERYONE, not just a few special members, seems very unusual to me.
Hey Hosts
The men's college (university) basketball tournament is on TV right now in USA. If business is slow, this could be why.
The game will end sometime around 4:00 am UK time, 7:00 am Romania time, and 8:00 am Moscow time. Until then, enjoy playing with the rest of the world.

RE: Hey Hosts
thanks--im watching it now-great game---to bad UCLA not in it., so rooting for Kansas
RE: Hey Hosts
Gotta go for Memphis. My Friars sucked so much they did not even make the NIT. and UConn my home state got skunked early. I love cinderella teams but none in the final four. Love college basketball...I love and hate the final four. Love to watch but sorry to see the season end. Hate the pros..bunch of prima donnas..but that is me....
RE: Hey Hosts
At one level, it is an exciting game, full of action....
Unfortunately, at another level, it is a very poorly played gamed. The player's are waayyyyyyyyyy too hyped up and making lots and lots of mistakes. It looks like an out-of-control, school-yard basketball game to me.

RE: Hey Hosts
Not a bad game overall, but Memphis totally choked at the line. The championship was theirs.
RE: Hey Hosts
I am glad that Kansas won since UCLA of the PAC-10 was eliminated in the semifinals.
To Lisa re Michael Connelly book
Connelly has written a whole series featuring a LAPD detective named Harry Bosch, but I suggest you start with "The Lincoln Lawyer" . This is one off about a defense attorney who operates out of the back seat of his Lincoln Town Car. Let me know what you think of it.

RE: Top 20 ?
Top 20 of what? Tastes and girls are so different, what would a Top 20 help with?
RE: Top 20 ?
The question was merely "is" there a top 20..not asking how or why. Thomas and anon gave the intelligent concise answer.
RE: Top 20 ?
Only way to really do that is based on money a host earns. Anything else would be subjective. Another site handles its top 120 (not just 20) this way.
Money earned of course wouldn't mean best host or anything like that since hosts may work different total hours, but I don't really see any other way without things getting too complex. The other site by the way gives its top 120 an extra 5% for the next pay period. This could be a good way to encourage hosts to spend more time on CC.

RE: Top 20 ?
Ori? Is that you??? :p
Anyway, "top 20" just means the top 20 hosts as defined by CC The issue is what does "top" mean. Does it mean "best performer" in terms of member votes if all the members voted? Does it mean "best money makeer" in terms of how much money a host makes for the site? Does it mean the host with the highest average rating? I was suggesting to go by hosts that make the most money for the site, and therefore, for themselves, by the way.

RE: Top 20 ?
There are people who think im the best host ever, and people who think i dont worth a visit. There are people who loved my show and keep visit me everyday and guys who never got back in my room. I think is the same to every host, so what is your criteria to make a Top20?
RE: Top 20 ?
I know what you mean, and many of my friends are upset. Those hosts make only 30% (and sometimes share it with the studio boss) which is not fair. Only their top 120 and their veteran (long-term) hosts get 35% whereas everyone used to get 35%.
But I was trying to suggest that the top hosts get an extra 5% and everything else stay as is. I was NOT suggesting that CC should lower payments for everyone by 5% and then give an extra 5% to the top hosts and long-term (veteran) hosts like the other site does.

RE: Top 20 ?
Im sorry to disappoint you but you are wrong. I dont visit anyone here besaids this lady. Of course i was chating with many in text chat. I dont remember when i ever admited i visit other girls, you are wrong again. Most probablly, im not the only one who post as "old one".

RE: Top 20 ?
The "old host" is actually ill, but she not gone for good. She will be back soon, more beautiful than ever:) Calling a 38 years lady old is rude, there are some others over 50 dude! And btw, she looks much better than most of 20 years old girls. I not wonder why so many guys loves her:D
RE: Top 20 ?
the use of the term old was not about her age and was said not CURRENTLY working here......learn to read
RE: Top 20 ?

RE: Top 20 ?
I didnt gave any name, i only said the host we are talking about is actually ill, whats wrong with that?
RE: Top 20 ?
anon is right there was no reason post that, didn't bother to mention it myself since you had already proved you you're not overly bright by reading something so stupid into my post

Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
I had a new host ask me if going to Comm Chat was worth the trouble. My first inclination was to say no. But then I started thinking. I did meet a few very good hosts through Comm Chat. They might not be chatting per se but they did send private messages to the members who were. Most are just out and out ...come to my video...I am naked...etc.etc. Some just said hi...that made me go to the host's profie...look at her pics and get into a conversation. Some did not lead to a video....many did.
I guess I like the hosts who do not just sit back and wait for men to come to them. There is something about a girl who does not sit and watch tv or talk to her coworkers at the studio...they are out looking for business. Now...dont get me wrong. Comm Chat can be annyoying for members...but that is why they make the ignore button.
What do you think? What has been your experience?

RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
I find it boils down to 2 options, the perpetual pests (usually asians) and the ones you want to pvt you but never do. There is a need for a permanent blocking option for members. Otherwise whenever I go in I end up blocking the same 7 or 8 pests over and over again. A pain in the butt and a reason I don't go as much as I used to. However, you are right that you do form some long lasting relationships with some met there (at least in the old days). Com chat room is not what it used to be.

RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
You reply to my post, list all your friends and I'm not even in there. I think I'll cry :(
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
It works when host comes up with a few intelligent introductory sentences. Just a "Hi, I'm xyz and I'm horny" surely isn't one. When you enter comchat, you usually get bombed by the phillipine girls. They seem to be especially spring-loaded to contact guys in comchat.
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
Will, I feel sorry for some asian hosts - I know for a fact that they are pressured into the hard sell by their studio bosses - they themselves often feel humiliated by doing this - let's face it, CC and similar sites are not particualrly nice places for women to work.....and you and I are responsible in some measure because we subscribe to them
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
hun, i love my job and i dont have problem talking to members in com chat. i do it not for my boss. i do it becuase i love the money and for me this job is the best. many of my girlfriends also love this job and we are happy so no speak if u dont know what we really think.
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
u were talking in vague generalities so yes, u were talking about her
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
Rubbish ! If that host doesn't fit the criteria of those "vague generalities" as you put it then by definition Nick wasn't talking about her.

RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
So.... I assume that in your opinion the girls are better off working in the streets as prostitutes than in CC and similar sites? I don't think so! Like you said: Let's face that's what "most" of these girls would do if we dont subscribe to sites like these.
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
lots of girls in studios are pressured to do this not just filipinas
RE: Does soliciting in Comm Chat work?
I really dislike the SPAM some girls give in comm chat. It only makes it worse that once you tell X girl "no, thanks", then the next girl (who is from her same studio...) then asks you the exact same thing. Ignoring them works better.
I've met a few hosts who actually go to comm chat to, surprisingly, chat. They use it as a way of passing time while they're working. Some of them even add you to their yahoos to keep in touch, even if you don't go to their video and never will.

RE: LostAddicted
Yes although I have to admit that season 4 has been a little bit disappointing so far. It seems to be losing it's weirdness which is a shame.
I also think, for me, it will be like Twin Peaks in that no matter what the ending turns out to be it will be an anti climax.

RE: fetish
I think that some hosts choose fetish as a way to get more traffic. I don't think most of them really have a serious fetish. To them, doing DP, using a few toys, and role-playing with different outfits is a fetish. Or they will do basic things like say they are there for guys with foot fetishes,
I think that a pregnant woman with milk is pretty much the limit here. They just choose fetish since it is a unique category that they hope will get a guy's attention. Also, they can spend 10 minutes in video talking about fetish and then never do much. That doesn't mean there aren't any truly bizarre hosts in the fetish category, but most are pretty mainstream which is fine with me.
I am not really into anything too strange either. When hosts asks "what my fetish is", I just say I thought that they are hot and watned to see more. Cam to cam is my fetish lol.

You've got to read this!
Dear Wife,
I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you
forever. I've been a good man to you for seven years and I have
nothing to show for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your
boss called to tell me that you quit your job today and that was
the last straw. Last week, you came home and didn't even notice
that I had a new haircut, had cooked your favorite meal and even
wore a brand new pair of silk boxers. You ate in two minutes, and
went straight to sleep after watching all of your soaps. You don't
tell me you love me anymore; you don't want sex or anything that
connects us as husband and wife.
Either you're cheating on me or you don't love me anymore; whatever
the case, I'm gone.
Your EX-Husband
P.S. Don't try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to
West Virginia together! Have a great life!
Dear Ex-Husband –
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true
that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good
man is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my soaps so much
because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad
that doesn't work. I did notice when you got a hair cut last week,
but the first thing that came to mind was 'You look just like a
girl!'
Since my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say
something nice, I didn't comment. And when you cooked my favorite
meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because
I stopped eating pork seven years ago.
About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the
$49.99 price tag was still on them, and I prayed that it was a coincidence that my sister had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning.
After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out.
So when I hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought
us two tickets to Jamaica . But when I got home you were gone.
Everything happens for a reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer
said that the letter you wrote ensures you won't get a dime from me.
So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Wife,
Rich As Hell and Free!
P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl. I hope that's not a problem!!

connects us as husband and wife.
Either you're cheating on me or you don't love me anymore; whatever
the case, I'm gone.
Your EX-Husband
P.S. Don't try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to
West Virginia together! Have a great life!
Dear Ex-Husband –
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true
that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good
man is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my soaps so much
because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad
that doesn't work. I did notice when you got a hair cut last week,
but the first thing that came to mind was 'You look just like a
girl!'
Since my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say
something nice, I didn't comment. And when you cooked my favorite
meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because
I stopped eating pork seven years ago.
About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the
$49.99 price tag was still on them, and I prayed that it was a coincidence that my sister had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning.
After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out.
So when I hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought
us two tickets to Jamaica . But when I got home you were gone.
Everything happens for a reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer
said that the letter you wrote ensures you won't get a dime from me.
So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Wife,
Rich As Hell and Free!
P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl. I hope that's not a problem!!

RE: Pls Read!!!
I dont understand the actual situation you are trying to tell us, maybe u can be more specific?
RE: Pls Read!!!
Regardless it was host or member, man or woman, I'd say it is about a short-term, ingrate and snide person. It is not about buying someone's love but about a simple gratitude for any help.
RE: Pls Read!!!
But you know what...Of course most of people expect to get something in return for their helping others and it is enough natural, considering the fact that normally we all need something all the time. But I still think the genuine friend would help without any expectations, and the real unselfishness is what differs real love and real friendship from just a partnership...
If you really wants someone to be happy you would try to do everything for that, just because you would feel yourself the same happy if you know your friend feels fine. If your situation is much better than your friend's so why not to help? For sure such perfection is not the often thing between humans.
Also there works such a thing that the one who is easy to give away is actually losing nothing and later gets even much more...

RE: Pls Read!!!
You are dreaming....you live as altrurist selfless person? you think women r beyond reproach?... when deprived of something therefore deserve charity without recompense? your attitude of 'entitlement' is suspect, fradulent and pathetic. I see it all the time here and in real life. Freindship and money equal a lousy mixture that results in confusion and disappointment. I know the attitude of most women here...they get what they can...period...you can justify it anywhere u want...if it makes u feel better...but its not correct. And when men succumb to false promises and their own illusions by sending money they deserve the consequences. They r no better than the women who solict directly or indirectly using 'friendship', "my love" or whatever as leverage. The connections created here are NOT traditional friendships (love or whatever)...absolutely unequivocally NOTHING to do with it...more like false illusions based on monetary compensation...period. Its a business site but when both expect things outside of this site and use/accept money in kind...then its gone too far.
RE: Pls Read!!!
I agree with LG 100%, if it was your chooise to help someone, then be happy that you did and ur friend is better now, thx to your help.
RE: Pls Read!!!
your a good kid...you remind me of some politicians i've known personally...everything they say is coming a sort of fantasy...if the world was this way or that...practically speaking nothing gets resolved.
RE: Pls Read!!!
Hello, R.Juicy ...it is an interesting question!!!!..I understand what you mean and I hope you can ignore the bad replies ...You know, there is a saying:" Do well and let it go on the waters!"....I know it is a bit hard to see that a close friend doesn´t share with you now what you DID share with her in the past....this can happen in marriage, also.I talk from experience, I married at 23 and I divorced at 24...
I tried to be like you whenever somebody needed help and even those persons do not write an email back now, I am not sad...I have less friends, but really good ones.My best girlfriend, we met at University, 20 years ago..she has keys from two houses of mines and I trust her fully.Who deserves your friendship would stay close to you and would share all with you, just as you did.I appreciate you even I do not know who you are, how do you look like...if more people like you would exist, life would be much better!
You know, inside you that while you helped the girl, you felt great...the others, who are insensitive at this, cannot understand.I wish I could tell you my life story to proove its worthy to act like you acted....In short, imagine you would be beautiful and kind and one day you would meet a bad dressed man, looking poor.You talk to him, advice him, date him, bring him at home, cook for him....and he is falling in love, you are falling in love...like in fairy tales.And one day, your dear one tells you he is rich and he would like to live with you until death.This happened to me...

RE: top 5 songs
Would someone that likes classical music need to be a few hundred years old? Many younger people like Classic Rock, Jazz, Blues, and even Elvis. A true music fan would appreciate the talents of great groups from the past and present. And in terms of whether to choose older groups, a younger fan just might like these groups better. There is a reason that classical music or classical paintings stand the test of time.... They are among the best ever and can be appreciated by people regardless of their age.
RE: top 5 songs
Absolutely agree. The really exclusive things are timeless.
As for me, I'm open to any kind of music if it is really talented, well done and deeply touches me...and not only me as I'm aware. However, I must admit I can hardly choose the favourites from the newest ones...mostly all seems not enough "unique"...But yes, SOME I could add to my list anyway, I am not that old-fashioned at all...
IMO of course..but I think we just live at those times of overall decline of culture when seems all the best was done before and we're just waiting for something really "earth-shattering"...the explosion of new ideas and new styles (and not only in music, generally I mean all the kinds of culture) which can shake almost everyone...Am I really such a perfectionist..lol?
For sure everyone has own preferences these days as well but in my opinion it is not the same "wave" as it was in 40s-80s... Thereat it was really "tsunami" of talents all over the world.

RE: top 5 songs
I'm sorry, but to compare rock and pop music to classical is simply ludicrous.
Mozart was a genius; both the emotional and intellectual depth of his music is timeless. To equate him to Elvis or a bunch of adolescents hammering out the same three chords in the same monotonous progressions is laughable. The only appeal of such popular music is the sappy sentimentalism born of the times they were made popular; nothing more.

RE: top 5 songs
The only three things that I would agree with in your post are that one you are a snob, two Elvis was the most overrated performer ever and three Mozart was undoubtedly a talented composer.
The rest of your post though is, as you would say, just laughable.

RE: top 5 songs
I'm sorry, but I can't agree with your point.
Nothing laughable and ludicrous in listening and enjoying various genres of music if it is really talented music and was made with the highest quality. I hate the same as you those 3 chords like you said...when sounds are just annoying thing and nothing more.
But to compare various genres of music is the same as to compare various instruments while each of them is incomparable - clavecin is not the same as saxophone...but both are wonderful and enjoyable.
Classical music always stands apart, it is definitely not for everyone. Mozart is Mozart, Bach is Bach and no one disproves their genius. But another kind of music can be also surpassing and out of ordinary, and right to that point any long living music proves that.
Btw, are you sure if Mozart was alive he won't like to listen from time to time something by Queen for example?

RE: top 5 songs
I would argue it's easier than ever to get your music out there, but it is not as widely disseminated because distribution is not dominated by big labels. I think there's a lot of very fresh music being made today, influenced broadly by music the world over. Today I can have a conversation with a French musician, an African musician, a Balinese musician, and we can find common ground. Something called the internet.
And Frank Sinatra sang flat a lot of the time :-)

My suggestion...you can read all things (or which you can find at least) of Anton Chekhov, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Mikhail Bulgackov, Lev Tolstoy, Nickolai Gogol, Vladimir Nabockov, Mikhail Sholokhov, Vasily Shukshin, Ivan Bunin, Alexander Colzhenitsin, Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov, Fazil Isckander, Chingiz Aitmatov, Sergey Dovlatov...(actually I could post much more names..I think you should also read something about the WWII if you are interested to know a reality from the veterans but not only what you was given in your high school). Those are the great writers, and the great poets are: Alexander Pushkin, Sergey Esenin, Michail Lermontov, Alexander Block, Anna Akhmatova, Marina Tsvetaeva (http://home.comcast.net/~kneller/tsvetaeva.html)...All them are worth to read if you really want to know at least a part of Russian culture.
Totally agree with you about "Doctor Zhivago" by Boris Pasternack and "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee..
I cannot post My 10 top just because I can't choose from that number of the great things I have read...Too much to post here...lol. Well, just some names maybe...all those Russian authors I posted above plus Lion Feuchtwanger, John Steinebeck, C.S.Lewis, William Shakespear, Charles Dickens, George Bernard Shaw, O. Henry, Jerome К. Jerome, J. D. Salinger, Ken Kesey, Harper Lee, George Orwell, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, Kurt Vonnegut, Anthony Burgess, Thomas Keneally, Theodore Dreiser...oh can't stop really...lol

Come All
well another lonely night for me again, I have nothing to do but sit behind a computer and chat with people I dont really know here, I just know I like to flirt and stay here the rest of my life feeling important and wanted although its about the money you all need and want, thats ok, I have nowhere to go any way to spend it, so I come here and chat with you all. The only thing that is more depressing is to see the same people here everyday and for hours talking about the same stuff I do, makes us feel important and a ladies man,,, yes I said it, im a ladies man and proud of it, if you want to meet me come into the community chat room which is my home, besides it doesnt cost much to free text message conversations in there.

tisme thinks tick tock's a tosser....ahh that's my alliteration urge quelled for today :--))
Some things I do not get
Been here a long time and never been to fetish or dungeon. I do not get the fixation with nails or trans gender hosts. Since I do not get these things, am I missing anything?
RE: greed
"The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed -- for lack of a better word -- is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms -- greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge -- has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed -- you mark my words -- will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA." - G. Gekko (1987)
