OP you are weird, if you can't handle a FREE CAM SECTION then put your VR headset back in the box because you aren't mature enough to use it

No one is forced to pay cammers, no one is even forced to view them

Trying to compare paying cammers vs gambling is some weird mental gymnastics

adinihsan I personally know a mentor of mentally deficient kids and adults, who tells me they often spend their whole allowances on these types of things.

Not even relevant, may as well talk about how the ocean has salt in it or that birds have wings 🤷

      chanser Hyper productive comment! Yeah if something like that happened for the few who would beta test such a program that could really add more long-term content and possibly be a transitioning bridge to bringing content that isn't just a temporary cam video and instead a lasting video others could keep for longer... heck also add the ability to buy a particularly well liked Cam session for future use.

        Man is on a porn site talking about ethics and high roads.
        I personally checked the cams once just to see whats going on and decided it wasn't really my thing. After that I don't even notice it anymore. Here is my 2 cents tho, if its a feature they want to present and other users enjoy it, why get in the way of that? People ruin themselves in plenty of other things, kids and gacha games, adults and online casinos, etc. It is really weird to get in the way of someone else's "fun" when it is completely legal. Imagine if another group of people campaigned against vr porn specifically? And they call vr porn users, us, "sad lonely dudes"
        OP has some serious issues. Calling the cam patrons "lonely whales" and the whole system as predatory. Seriously get off your high horse. You are on a porn site jesus muhammad christ.

          I never did that though?

          This is called an opinion. What I gave is an anecdote, funny how that works.

          Perhaps you're right. I maybe should have advocated for a far better monetization system instead. But as it is currently, I think it hurts SLRs image. I'm sorry if I come across as crude, I don't mean to. Do you truely believe the system is not predatory?

          I wanted to see public opinion on this, obviously it means nothing to SLR so not sure why people are so riled up about it. Saying I can't criticize something because its legal is just... nonsense. This is how companies win. When people stop pointing out horrible business practices. Again gaming is a good example:

          -pre orders
          -silly editions up to 130 bucks
          -cough star citizen
          -the list goes on and on, this goes for many industries

          Yes, all of it is fully legal, and there are many 'happy' customers/simps. But calling out companies on their total BS business practices is the only way to start change.

                  AFAIK Dreamcam runs the VR cam service and the same feeds are on other sites like VR Bangers and Badoink - SLR is probably not diverting any resources at all to this, quite the opposite, it would be additional revenue if they're a Dreamcam partner. Removing this feature does not help SLR, the users or the girls. Camming is one of the safest avenues of sex work - take that away and the girls may have no other options than to have actual sex for money instead of just pretending and providing entertainment. Not sure who you think you're helping here, while still advocating for porn which is infinitely more destructive than camming.

                    vrpicasso Clearly I am worried for the user, this has already financially ruined people and its only increasing. This puts them into emergency life threatening situations. Unlike gambling there are no protective measures in place to prevent or slow down users from ruining themselves. And unlike gambling there is nothing to win back.

                    Not sure what world you live in where sex work is the only career avenue for women, but for nearly all countries this is completely false. In what way is porn infinitely more destructive than camming, or are you purely talking from the models perspective? I think financial despair is by far the most destructive to someones immediate livelihood.

                        adinihsan Ah, right. I don't want to live in a world where anything even mildly or potentially addictive is prohibited, protecting a handful of people from self-destructive tendencies at the expense of the fulfilment of the many. At a certain point you need to take responsibility for your own life. Porn itself is also addictive. I would support any company offering help or a hotline to help users (or models) who need guidance, but apart from that I advocate for personal choice and responsibility in most things.

                            vrpicasso I never said it should be prohibited.. I said its a terrible service which prays on the weak and imo looks bad for SLR with the current system. Let other companies focus on that scummy stuff while you continue growing the OG platform. Gambling isn't prohibited either, but there are protective measures in place in civilized countries.

                            Yes, they are at fault for falling for it. That doesn't make the business practice ethical. You're enticed to spend huge sums in a short time frame, with nothing to gain. I'm surprised people are getting so upset about me simply calling it as it is, and bringing up illegal/prohibition/abolishment when that was never implied.

                                It isn't predatory at all

                                It's completely optional to view, completely optional to make an account, completely optional to buy tokens, completely optional to pay models

                                If someone lacks the will power or mental fortitude to say no then they will lose their money elsewhere regardless, so it's a meaningless argument

                                If you want some kind of protection then write to your local government representative

                                Having VR cams makes SLR more appealing, people are here for VR porn. Having the option to view live VR porn streams is icing on the cake, even more so when they can fulfil your fantasies right there and then

                                    jommy everything in life is optional. Do you truely believe a business can do no wrong as long as its not a literal crime? Alright... interesting. If you truely feel like you're getting value for your money that's great, go enjoy it I guess.

                                      Lemme just point out that a majority of people still sees porn and the whole porn industry as predatory. Maybe we should all just stop and go back to wanking via imagination?
