WTF? 40 posts and 12Clicks isn't here yet telling the two broke ass peasants to stop arguing about nickels.

his site..
 

is the cheapest version of Modenacam dot com Just changed the name/logo...

So all the shit about programmers etc..blabla...

I contacted the owner of Modena and he was also not to speak about this bulldog...

He ows a lot of people and after those 3 weeks spending on our girls on his own site...also Visa I guess )))

at L-Pink
 

Exactly L-Pink...

It's enough, you are right !

Peanuts, well for the models 300 euro is not really peanuts !!!

I don't think anybody ripped anyone, or I would have been freaking out previously. My site went live in July 2012 so it was def. first, but there isn't a hugely intuitive templating system. I had a designer customize my site a little, which may be the only reason it isn't straight pixel for pixel identical cause it looks like the other is using an out of the box default. I have a new design supposed to be released "this weekend" for the last 8 weekends or so. Designers, lol. What can you really do?

we were ripped !
 

We were ripped !

Ah, ok. So that is a Modena template. I did not realize that.

I'm here for the Caliphate خلافة.

Lol. That made me think of CaliPhat as a domain name. But the com is taken, I am 2 days late ;p

Fiddy fucking Cam startups.

Ok, it has been six hours now and I don't see anything new.

So much for your 100% sure.

I don't think you are very good at the internet, ya know?

This thread is just insane.

bump for Xavi.

I am the programmer who this person contacted to create the custom feeds for modenacam script. The project was completed however the payment delayed, and then a supposed sent payment that never happened. After reading this thread I have very clear that I'm not going to get paid by this person.


The website of the OP was using the default templates that come with modenacam script. It is built using codeigniter framework and has a considerable number of template elements. Btw, since you use the same script, are you interested in adding support for online model feeds? I have the work done for it using hasoffers affiliate system, but can adapt it to whatever system you use.

Really?

Hmm. Back on the 16th (September) I got an email from an antwuan at eventosgv dot com
that indicated he was programming the feeds. Is that by any chance you? Or was it another "misstatement" from someone at the caliporno/eventsgo crew?

So, if they outsourced it to you and you are awaiting payment then I guess I know why I have not heard back on the feeds.

Curiouser and curiouser as Alice would say.

.

No, I'm not that person. I was contacted at a later date.

I delivered the project last Friday and just the same day the OP wanted to abort the project and go for a webcams.com api integration.

LOL was gonna reach out as soon as I read that. We are on Nats. There are some issues with the integration and it's a bit clunky at the moment which is why I don't pimp my site on the boards yet, but basically yes I am interested. hit me up at my user here @ yahoo.

Email sent.

Those are like 2 completely different things, unless I am misunderstanding something.

The xml feeds were to export the data from calipornos while the webcams com integration would be pulling data in.

Why wouldn't they want to do both? One should not have canceled the other imho.

Sounds like whoever is calling the shots (Xavi I assume) has absolutely no clue about anything.

Oh well, another wannabe cam site bites the dust.

PJ, I saw your aff program is invite only. If you do the feeds thing then I want an invite please. Thanks in advance ;p

.

Sounds like he's given up on Caliporno and wants to be an affiliate now instead.

Because the second was to replace modenacam completelly.

received, rescued from the spam folder and replied.

Hmm, I don't know. I might be giving him more credit then he deserves or maybe someone that knows some about the industry provided some advice but..

I always figured that if I were to try to do a cam startup like he was doing (and mtc too, or any cam startup for that matter) that I would offset the lack of models with feeds and/or embeds from various sponsors so that as I built traffic and brand for myself, and attracted more models I would also have some cash coming in from cross-promotion. (hopefully that blurb makes sense).

So, the webcam com api, if it works as it is being described, would be perfect for that because you could integrate the api fully while still running your own models.

Solves the problem of "No models on line right now" that all new cam startups face.

.

Oh, ok. then he was throwing in the towel. Sounds like he was running every which direction at once too.

I just don't understand why people give up so easily on stuff. I don't think caliporno had been out there a full month yet and already giving up. Not the way to succeed (imho).

You have to work a plan, you can't just go this way and that way and all over the place. You plot out your journey and then you travel it. Yeah, occasionally you have to make an adjustment here or there but ya know, if you want to get to California from New York by car you have to keep going west. You can't start going west and then go back east for a while and then north and then east again and then wonder why you didn't get to the West coast.

oh well, like they say, another one bites the dust.

.

Well all potential scumbaggery aside, not paying your vendors is generally a cash flow issue. I think the fact OP came here and tried to get in front of the drama shows he hadn't given up completely but now with this it's going to be difficult to impossible to find anyone else to trust him.

So, throwing in the towel on that site would make sense.

Well having been down that road here's what I would do:

For me webcams anything seems like a dead end. Just doesn't convert for me. I have a 5 year old white label with them, 100's of thousands of uniques and not a single free signup. I've discussed with their aff reps and nobody can figure it out, maybe I just suck. Whatever, I don't care anymore.

So basically I need my own models. Since my site is too slow to keep the girls busy I put them on a few sites at once. like 2 or 3, sites like MFC and Chaturbate work best cause they don't do as many private shows there so no need to sign off from the other sites to entertain a crowd.

That way I can keep my girls busy enough to keep them around for my few customers and they aren't falling asleep or anything. I provide a location with internet, security, transportation and food and pay them a weekly base salary (low but it guarantees they are not wasting their time) and then I pay them a percentage of what they earn on the sites they work, again a little low but between that and the salary they usually end up with more than they would get on their own. They also get a very generous rev share on my site which keeps them interested in focusing their attention there, even with the long breaks between customers.

That whole operation runs at a small loss but it keeps my site staffed 24/7 which is a pretty hard thing for a cam startup to pull off and gives me a huge advantage in retaining customers.

It sounds like you are taking a good approach. The salary thing is a good way to go.

But picture if you will:

Right now your site shows 5 girls live at the top and then the rest of the models below that.

Now, what if you grabbed a feed (if not webcams com, then pretty much any that offer a feed. Chaturbate's is pretty easy to work with.) and you populated a bunch more online cams boxes with the feed info.

You can make it look exactly like the models from your own site, only difference is that when they click the chaturbate ones they will go to a page on your site where you have the chaturbate page embedded and when they click your models they go to your cam.

You pick up a buck a sign up for any free sign ups at chaturbate and whatever percentage they pay for revshare (I think 20%). That can be enough to pay the light bill and buy a couple of beers.

As you increase the number of live models you have on line you start decreasing the number you are showing from feeds until you are showing just your cams on your site.

The object of integrating the feeds is not necessarilly to make more money. It is instead to make it NOT look like you only have 5 girls on line while others are showing hundreds.

But, i am not a site owner, do not run sponsor programs or anything like that. I am just a programmer who does a couple of his own sites so I am probably talking out my ass.

;p

Wow , you weren't kidding...

http://demo.modenacam.com/ :spawn http://www.caliporno.com/ :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

IF we were a cookie cutter cam site that would make all the sense in the world.

My site isn't really "free" though, we offer things like VIP memberships that get special treatment in a variety of ways, and people generally have to pay to get in. When they do they get bonus tokens, which obviously they wouldn't be able to spend on 3rd party sites.

I also get quite a bit of questionable traffic which I can deal with cause I have experience and my filters are set up to spare me from the worst of it plus I review transactions daily to prevent problems issue voids and refunds after the fact etc. but any site that wasn't set up for that or expecting it would freak the hell out immediately.

And besides it would be a traffic leak competing with my dedicated girls. Yes we're small but we use that to our advantage to provide a boutique experience and can work as a pretty effective team as long as everyone is taking the recommended dosage of their recommended meds.

Yeah, like I said, I don't run any programs or membership sites so the realities are different from the picture in my warped little mind ;p

.

Well I don't know about warped, people doing it your way are making good money. I just have this vision that loosely fits together with my business plan and am trying to make it happen, it's not based on any other site specifically mostly just planned around my odd set of skills and flaws but for now it pays the bills which for small camsites seems to be quite a feat.

Maybe if google didn't hate me or if I had a real budget I would do it differently. Most likely that would work better, but then I'd be someone else. So I do the best I can with what I got which isn't much but people get paid and shit gets done.

well it seems Xavi is a real scam !

Same stuff he pulled off with us.

The only dollars spent on our girls were surely his also...one model showed me a conversation with him, pushing her to accept a WU...even gave her MTCN (checked online, fake of course)

This Xavi is a real loser it seems.

Ok for the sake of my lost 7,5K one more time :

Xavi, you are a fat-assed scamming jerker !

And remember, trees never meet eachother...people on the other hand...

just want to get a sig spot in here :thumbsup

If I can't say hahahahahaha you can't say sig spot.

Exactly :thumbsup

Xavi... Xavi... Where are you Xavi ??

How come you haven't come back ?

Tam didn't come and enlighten us as you assured us she would ?

Since you left, a programmer has come forward and said that he hasn't been paid. So right now what we have here is a studio that you contracted with that did not get paid and a programmer that has not been paid. You also assured us that you had taken care of your affiliate rep and even assured us that she would come by and verify that and that hasn't happened yet either.

Seems your word isn't very good. Maybe it's the second language thing or something.

So please come back and fill us in.

Thanks in advance.

I just realized that you were breaking 2 rules and I had only called you on one of them. Sorry I missed the other one. I hate when I do that.

Well, maybe you haven't actually broken another rule, depends. Are you guys (MTC) top sponsors? meaning do you have a banner spot on the top of the board here?

If not you are breaking the sig rules in addition to your constant spamming of your sig.

You might want to fix that before someone important notices.

No reason to thank me, I just try to be helpful like that :thumbsup
