Please remember it takes approx 6-8 hours of hard (excuse pun) work (planning, organising lingerie, hair, makeup, shooting time, editing, uploading, promotion) and not an inconsiderable expense (outfits, cameras, computers, editing) for 2 people to organise a 15 minute film or a photo set. Magnify that by the 200 plus films and and 500 plus photo sets I have and that’s a big investment for me. Plus the huge emotional energy involved.
The outfit above for example costs approx $200. MrG’s camera is $2500. Plus lenses, lighting, laptop, iPad,editing software. All needing constant upgrading and updating. To be told ‘I don’t pay for porn as I’m the only guy in the world without a card but I want to chat to you all day and can you sent me lots of free stuff and rate my dick while you’re at it’ is frankly, insulting.
Everything here on xHamster is free, same as Twitter, Insta, and all the other free posting sites I’m on. I only have a nominal charge for my OnlyFans. That’s $14.99. OF take 20%, then with the currency conversion costs that nets me approx £7 per subscriber per month. For that you get my entire archive, all my new latest exclusive films and photos that aren’t here, plus my daily posts, my livestream and as much chat as you want.
So can I please ask politely that I don’t get abused on xHamster free chat? All I seem to get are various sorts of fantasists, weirdo’s wanting to play some sort of strange free dick rating game, and misogynists. Is it to much to ask for a little polite, nuanced and convivial conversation? Is that unreasonable? Is it ok to call me a money grabbing bitch when nothing could be further from the truth? I don’t do this to make money it doesn’t even remotely cover my lingerie costs let alone anything else. Everything in this life has a value, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable to charge a little for some of my ‘content’. I don’t like that word. It’s more than ‘content’ - I put my heart and soul into it.
Is it wrong to try and offset just some of my costs? Is it? Otherwise I would be paying to entertain you and that’s just not right is it? If something is free it has no value to the maker and consequently no value to the user. Times have changed I guess. Just too much free stuff devaluing what ‘content creators’ ‘produce’. As soon as I make a film it’s stolen and reposted on a free site. Only yesterday someone used my photos to start up a fake Instagram profile.
Another interesting point is comments. I get lovely public comments here which I always try to respond to. It’s a contrast to my private inbox which is a sea of abuse and endless penis photos. I get lovely messages on my OnlyFans every day and I like to think I build up a genuine rapport. Maybe it’s the country block I have on my OF, but I won’t discuss that here.
For the moment I am no longer doing xHamster live cam shows. Being thrown a few tokens from a baying gallery is not for me. The amounts tipped are truly insulting. It’s such a shame as camming used to be fun. I have been doing that since the days of dial up 28k internet, and was always such a great way to have a fun evening.
xHamster used to be fun, I’m hoping it will be again. But I can’t change it in my own. It’s a race to the bottom here both with the posters and the ‘users’. I dislike the terms user, creator, content… it’s just soooo impersonal now.
I really do appreciate that some of you have wives and/or girlfriends checking your cards so you can’t pay for that reason and I respect that, I’m not getting at you. I really do understand. But tell me that and don’t string me along with endless excuses!
Plus If you’re not into me that much that’s also absolutely fine of course but please don’t expect to receive the full service then!
I’ll be very interested to hear your thoughts……
