Very true Dazzler. (You have a very good habit of raising under discussed topics btw!
) I think too many babes fall into a trap of not giving enough consideration to the crowd as a separate entity all of its own. Instead they seem to think only of breaking it up, categorising individuals within it, and narrowing their focus to each punter's specific moments of spending. They feel they must isolate us as much as possible in every encounter. It's, of course, understandable and desirable that babes get to know each spender by doing so (it's obviously enhancing to create better relationships ahead of future use). But - and it's a very big "but" - this can often be to the detriment of certain aspects of the shows;
ones that some paying punters value dearly. Moments of individual interaction shouldn't be any babe's
all-consuming focus. Such a focus denies the fact that, for many of us at least, the shows will always be best viewed as a mass spectator sport!
We want to share an event and be involved in a group spectacle... even as we, erm, do our own thing!
For us, being part of the crowd (preferably one with a likeminded primary intent) is very much a driving and desired part of the experience. A thrill we can be actively seeking out when we come to the streams.
The introduction of chat boxes a while back has only enhanced this desire. Being part of something wider, could, in times gone by, only be sensed and/or imagined (backed, after the fact, by forum posts we'd see expressing similar emotions)... But nowadays it has become an immediate and very viseral motivating force of our visits thanks to the validation that can come in chat's messages.
With the right punters, fellow chatters can form a pedatory pack instinct around their desires. As a result, our sense of satisfaction at our time on a stream can be made or broken by the babe's handle over her show as a whole and her 'room' in particular. Is she 'in tune' with its mood? Can she feel its desires? These things suddenly become stupidly important when each punter senses the same possibilities and quest for action. We will walk away if a babe is not cultivating those desires.
Under these circumstances the chat box represents a kinship and bond; anticipation and excitement swells at the common cause, and when the babe responds we get a rush off the adrenaline at the increasingly hurried and unfiltered commentary that results. We are very much part of the hunt with each contribution thereafter. The often base nature of the messages and pink wall of tips themselves encourage us on. The word can get out to and fresh punters can be drawn in as it goes. (In manipulating the whole as one unit a savvy and commited babe's initial actions can even push forward this agenda from the off.)
This is
the most potent use of tipping/vibra and tip goals going. With a sympathetic babe feeding off the energy and vibe of a complimentary and very active crowd, babe and tipper alike can each pile on their coal. The heat of the show being precipitated in the cycle of erotic action and ever heightening interactions that tend to come in waves; each tip enhancing the experience of all that has gone before it. It can be a very addictive sensation being an active part of that build and stimulation.
A babeshow crowd can have an utterly unique and compelling pull all of its own in this way - provided babe and watchers work in simpatico... The smart modern babe should know all this. She should already be USING these ready elements whenever it seems on to do so. Using them to the hilt.
We crave a babe that is into this; we want more of what we've seen of it and will be there if a babe proves she can join the club. But so many seem to look the other way from the chance each and every time. Do they have other priorities or are they unaware..?
Of course - better than bloody reading about it
- anyone wishing to see a mastery of the sort of crowd manipulation I've described above should just watch Altanta or Jess W. These babes are at the top of their craft these days precisely because they are prepared to work their audience in this way (wherever it may form - in group or on main cam). The punters contributing to their shows have become steadfastly loyal both because they trust their babe and because they love the feelings they get from being part of what is
a total validation of their fandom.
Otoh, any babe that wont look to service these cravings (and any babeshow crowd of a decent enough size will exhibit them IMO) is effectively ruling herself out to a very active slice of the current market. Her tip figures will simply never be what they could be. (This has nothing to do with a babe's content levels btw. The levels of Jess and Atlanta are not required to make this work. Evelyn does it too for instance - all the time - and she is barely topless fta. I'm speaking of a tactic only; an intrinsic and acute awareness to the possibilities of a style of working. And one that, IMO, no babe should be ignoring at this time.)
