TRIPLE DIAMOND STATUS PRIVILEGES

Will a new level come at some point, after TRIPLE DIAMOND STATUS?
Many users now have over 4500 cards, would a new higher level with 5000 cards be possible?
What discounts could there be for a new level?

They already give 45% off, 20% on reloads, if you are patient you can get every card 25% off via the buy 3 get 1 free. So you are looking at a 65% discount if you are patient. PLUS...full collectors seem to get better odds in gambling games and get free special event cards via monthly packs. I would much rather they invested their savings into getting better talent than providing tiny savings to people who are already invested in the product and already have obscene benefits. It is fairly clear to me that we have a current line up of girls who are comfortable showing everything but are not paid enough to show everything, let totem put money into models rather than side games and discounts.

very good one answer

I've long suspected that Totem might sometimes use the award to increase the sales of performers who aren't selling as well as expected. A policy like that seems reasonable, from Totem's point of view, and might explain your analysis.

So, as you say, a marketing tool, but we don't know the sales figures, so we'll never know.

THIS LOOKS like a fun forum! I love Sandra H., and about 10 other females and LOVE LOVE the flashing by some such as Marie. Also do they accept money tips for their beauty, can we send them TIPS????? :) (tips for TITS :) ) thank you ladies for sharing your beauty with others, you are not stingy and SHOULD be rewarded.

Launched iStripper today, 8/18/2020 Tuesday, and it ***** me to update. cant launch without updating. and if i stop the update, the program closes. Tried downgrading again, but still just ***** the update again. I had downgraded because the new update wont show anything above Featured/Girls Store/Previews/My Collection, etc. and to click buttons i have to click underneath them. previously on this forum list i'd requested help and received it. but ultimately the troubleshooting didnt work. seems like the title bar is covering the items above, or things are misalligned? Windows 10 fully up to date. restarting PC did not resolve

I was surprised that Elis did not make it to Talent of the month, as I thought her performances rated very highly (and they do!).

So I have just amused myself by looking at the ratings of those girls who have been awarded that prestigious award.
There are some strange results.

Sophie Sparks (Oct 2018), Georgie Lyall (Nov 2018) and Alba de Silva (Aug 2018) are the strangest results, ranking as they do 521st, 412th, and 430th respectively in the full list of girl average rankings.

Unsurprisingly Belka, Melena Maria Rya, Alya Stark and Hilary C have deservedly been distinguished.
However, Gloria, Little Candy, Nekane, Elis, Talia Mint, and Nancy A have won no prizes, in spite of ranking in the top 10.
In July 2020 the award went to Martina Smeraldi. She ranks 60th in the all-girl average rankings, and has only 'sold' 769 cards.

I wonder what criteria Totem use - or is it just another marketing/promotion tool?

Thanks for the answer @Wyldanimal

In reading your reply, I realize I should have clarified that I was talking about previews related to the cards I own.

In any case, your answer is complete enough to have answered my question. I'll try the updates tip when available. For the other cards, I guess I'll need to download the whole card again 😒

Thanks again and have a nice day.

NB: I didn't know that the rebuild function doesn't download. It's handy to know.

The Rebuild Collection DOES NOT download missing files in the Models folder.
It Simply Takes an Inventory of what you already have.

Rebuild does NOT Download.

Check for Updates will Download missing files.

You can't re-download Previews for a card you have not purchased and isn't on your preview list.
But you can add that card again to your list of Previews and it will redown load them.

If you have a purchased card, and you deleted the Previews from that card
you can select that card and check for Updates.

it will once again, make the card complete with any new files, and any missing files including the previews.

If all of the files are up to date except the previews, than that is all that it will download.

Never attempt this on a card that has been removed from Sale in the store.

I will close this topic before it descends any further than it has...

@zzmaskers is beating the dead horese again. He tries to ***** his own and only right opinion down our throats.

@Ullubu I have three cards of Takha and I was very positive about Takha and her shows! You can read it in my comments.

Probably excercising and getting fit enough to be hired to perform. Nobody here would buy a show of a real "fattie" - except perhaps you.

Apparently a set of teeth is as different to each and every person as a fingerprint. So let's just straighten that maze of lines out for you...

Where is all the really fat gurls on I stripper

@zzmaskers is beating the dead horese again. He tries to ***** his own and only right opinion down our throats.

Takha is a beautiful girl and a great performancer and it doesn't interest me how her teeth look like.

it doesn't matter to me as to their scares "one of best girls here has a scare on her leg Caroline April & she gave a dang good performance...

As @gkar45 said.

But... there is so much more to look at than the girls teeth! Why get so fixated over something so shallow?

We have a couple of girls with a crooked smile... I agree that it adds... something to personality. Who has a completely straight set of teeth anyway?

@Carstrip - That thought bubble is a nice simple solution that works well. I was thinking of something more complex involving shaders and cross fading disolves, but your simple thought bubble turned out to be all that was needed.

i get a system error message at system start and app start telling me that file "MSVCR120.dll" is missing. app starts nevertheless but is configured to not launch on system start. already tried to reinstall.

i moved back to a previous version but today i was ***** via automatic update to move to version 1.2.266. so i searched a solution for this problem and was able to solve it by installing the latest version of "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013".

the buttons "fullscreen" and "on/off" are partly not clickable after a card info slided in. this happens when a preview is launchend or a card is selected in the girls store.

reproducible in 1.2.266

Thanks @Grabandt 😉 Its a quick fix but I think it kinda works enough.

@RonaldB

Change that to bars and you could have the iStripper version of the Cellblock Tango from the play/movie Chicago.

The "bars" scene on stage is hard because the iStripper girls dont stay in one place like they do in the show. But, I might have a go at the red squares with bars thats in the background, the colors with silhouettes should look cool, see how I go.

Takha's gap on the front teeth just adds to her charm! I'd like her to do whatever the heck she wants with that now that she probablty has the money for any "repairments", but I think she looks perfectly lovely the way she is. I'd like to think she wants to spend her income for something more sensible :)

I think at least Vanessa Paradis (as mentioned above), Anna Paquin and Brigitte Bardot had similar type of gaps between their front teeth and that certainly didn't ***** them career-wise.

Hi iStrippers 😉
As per the idea from @TheEmu I've added a dream bubble to this scene so it looks like the guy is deaming of the girls!
It has both the original scene and this changed scene in the file so both will work.

See what you think 👍

Only Totem knows the answer to the question of adding another benefit level. If they're struggling to make a profit - and who isn't during these Covid days - it wouldn't make much sense.

But if they're doing well, it's always good to say thank you to the people that helped support you. Only a true cynic would say gratitude is a foolish economic practice.

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to download the previews from a show, without erasing the whole show and downloading it anew ?

I ask the question because I deleted several previews a few years ago, in order to make some room in my computer and now I would like to get them again.

I tried to rebuild the collection, but it doesn't work in order to download my deleted previews. It's kind of logical anyway, since the software wouldn't rebuild shows and previews that the user voluntary erased.

we have no understanding at all about her circumstances or her feelings on the matter

One of the best books I have read in the last five years was by Nobelprizewinner in 2015 Svetlana Alexievich of Belarus:
Secondhand Time: The Last of the Soviets
German title Secondhand-Zeit. Leben auf den Trümmern des Sozialismus.
Dutch: Het einde van de rode mens. Leven op de puinhopen van de Sovjet-Unie.
French: La Fin de l'homme rouge ou le Temps du désenchantement

Takha grew up in those years.

@TheEmu
So funny, I was heading that way when I was making it! I tried a couple of things with dream bubbles coming from his head etc,
I might have another go at it, I think you're right, it does need to go in the dream direction.

I weigh in at a not overly large 1711.

Hey, it's not the size of your collection, it's what you do with them! X)

in my personal opinion i'm ok were i'm at.👍 I can only go up from here. I worked my way to the top of my collection with the exception of 7 cards. i already get 45% discount on my shows I don't need any more privileges then what i already have.😊

We can argue about what we want to see on a site like iStripper, but without attacking the models (or the customers) directly.
So, I let this thread open, only if everybody stop to attack someone in particular.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Yep, the shot of her in doggy pose, the blonde fits quite well...

@stefnev1 - can we close this thread down as it is being very personal about one of the girls and we have no understanding at all about her circumstances or her feelings on the matter?

@stefnev1 vient de répondre ce que je pense à ce sujet, je voulais également prendre Vanessa Paradis en exemple.
Et

Dire que c'est parcequ'on vient d'un pays pauvre n'a pour moi aucun sens dans ce cas-là.

est tout à fait juste.
Et même insultant !
Je trouve Takha très excitante et elle le serait peut-être moins sans cette particularité.
Vous avez de la chance aux Pays-Bas d'être aussi bien couvert par votre assurance maladie, mais sachez que c'est loin d'être le cas dans d'autres pays d'Europe Occidentale.
Laissez les gens vivre leurs différences sans les juger. Merci.

@stefnev1 just answered my thoughts on this subject, I also wanted to take Vanessa Paradis as an example.
And
[quote] To say that it is because you come from a poor country does not make sense to me in this case. [/ quote] is quite correct.
And even insulting!
I find Takha very exciting and maybe she would be less so without this peculiarity.
You are lucky in the Netherlands to have such good health insurance coverage, but be aware that this is far from the case in other Western European countries.
Let people experience their differences without judging them. Thank you.

@Carstrip

I just had the thought that your "While You Were *****" could be modified to make the girls appear to be the sleeper's dream - like in a film's dream scene. Not sure how to go about doing that though.

Il n' y a aucun caractère obligatoire à porter un appareil dentaire. Pour citer une autre personne connue en France (après Madonna déjà évoquée plus haut), Vanessa Paradis a le même type de dentition et ses parents avaient de quoi lui payer un appareil dentaire quand elle était enfant. Dire que c'est parcequ'on vient d'un pays pauvre n'a pour moi aucun sens dans ce cas-là.

There is no obligation to wear braces. To quote another person known in France (after Madonna already mentioned above), Vanessa Paradis has the same type of teeth and her parents had enough to pay for braces when she was a *****. To say it's because you come from a poor country doesn't make sense to me in this case.

Qui dis cela ? Diastema est juste un écartement naturel des dents, principalement des incisives.
Ce type de dentition est également appelé : "dents du bonheur"!
Rien à voir avec un faible niveau de vie!Who is saying that? Diastema is just a natural gap between the teeth, mainly the incisors.
This type of dentition is also called: "teeth of happiness"!
Nothing to do with a low standard of living!
De nos jours, chaque jeune avec un diastème reçoit un appareil dentaire pour corriger cela. Il est payé par l'assurance maladie obligatoire au moins aux Pays-Bas et je pense aussi dans d'autres pays d'Europe occidentale. Takha avait 12 ans en 2003. Elle vivait en Ukraine. Pas d'argent pour les dentistes et les broches. Aux Pays-Bas, on appelle un diastème un "fietsenrek" (support à vélo). "dents du bonheur" était destiné à apaiser la douleur mentale du "fietsenrek". Je me souviens de ma jeunesse que des mots plus positifs étaient donnés pour quelque chose de négatif. À l'âge de 27 ans, Angelika Grays porte une orthèse pour corriger la position de ses dents. Alice Wonder (j'ai vu ça sur un autre site, où elle a ouvert la bouche) aurait dû avoir la même chose. Vous êtes surpris quand elle ouvre la bouche. Et une si belle femme! Malgré le diastème, j'aime beaucoup Takha.

Nowadays every young person with a diastema gets a dental brace to correct this. It's paid by the compulsory health insurance at least in The Netherlands and I think also in other Western European countries. Takha was 12 years old in 2003. She was living in Ukraine. No money for dentists and braces. In The Netherlands they call a diastema a "fietsenrek" (bicycle stand). "teeth of happiness" was intended to soothe the mental ***** of the "fietsenrek". I remember from my youth that more positive words were given for something negative. At the age of 27 Angelika Grays wears a brace for correcting the stand of her teeths. Alice Wonder (I saw this on another site, where she opened her mouth) should have had the same. You're startled when she opens her mouth. And such a beautiful woman! Despite the diastema I like Takha very much.

Takha is one of my favorites of the latest releases. She's much underrated on this site.

Talia Mint, who was not mentioned by zzmaskers in his comment

@batavus I didn't mention Talia Mint, because her shows were preduced before the lockdown. I only took the corona-era models. Camille Wallace was the first one.
Takha is underrated, possibly because of the diastema.

Sasha Meow in blonde, what a beautiful young lady 😍😍😍

We all have our preferences about women. There are two girls who are the best for me from the released cards from April on, Takha and Talia Mint, who was not mentioned by zzmaskers in his comment. In my opinion Takha is much underrated, while I'm glad Talia has a high rating. Some of these girls are overrated, but you can't like every girls in the same way.

I also think the director's comments were misinterpreted, and were probably about the pandemic & all its consequences. Being a French speaker, I think he just litterally translated the common French expression "j'avoue" by 'I admit', whereas in colloquial French it means something like "I agree" or "agreed". I guess he's agreeing with most people who say 2020 was a bad year.

@zzmaskers

Diastema. Typique pour les pays à faible niveau de vie; pas de bonne assurance maladie pour tout le monde.

Où alors Madonna est dans la misère.

Where then Madonna is in misery.

I think that comment about 2020 being shitty was a simple remark about the year, not talent choice.

Although I do admit that for me, the talent missed the mark this year so far.

No fault of the company, but most of the French models don't work for me. It's not even about lack of nudity (I don't mind) but the fact that they're not the type I like.

@Grabandt

If Totem suddenly increased the price of all cards, 18 credits per card and no more discounts, would you still buy any card?

Probably not, but decreasing the price would not (and could not) cause me to buy more than I do. There comes a point where discounts are counter productive. As both of us get both the 45% triple diamond and are eligible for the 20% extra discount for premium membership our discount rate is already 56%, and if we take advantage of the reload bonuses when buying credits there is another 20% in terms of real world money costs bringing the effective discount up to just under 65% - and we can still often benefit from some, though not all, of the regular TGIFs. I can't see that Totem are making much profit from us (though have have obviously done so in the past) and any significant extra discount may well turn that into a loss, not just a reduction in profit.

As far as it being a habit is concerned, I doubt that an extra small discount would make it harder to break the habit. An extra large discount might do so, but by then Totem could effectively be paying me to take their cards (as outlined in the previous paragraph)

@Grabandt

The topic was, what comes after Triple Diamond Status .....!?

That is an easy Answer, the Team is thank our loyalty :)
https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/45465/1?post=675899

In the end, you want every card.

Nope, i want those Cards which i really want to.

Of course, every user decides for himself whether he buys or not ...

That's right, so why to start such a Topic, when you are already aware of this.

But which member suddenly stops when they already have 500 or 1000 cards and new cards are offered every day.

I don't know, i only can speak for myself. Or can you look in every Mind of every Member here?

Then it would have been better not to have started ...

There are so many things in Life, which you can say it would have been better not to have started.
So nothing new to the West.

As with smoking cigarettes, it would be best if you hadn't even started, then you wouldn't have become *****!

I was be able to give up Smoking cigarettes in December 2014, so it's only our own will
which is holding us back to start things.
Ok i went over to the E-Cigarettes, but i also ended with Steaming over a Year ago.
But without them i think i were never be able to get away from the Smoking.
So the E-Cigarettes were helping me on my way 👍

Totem has nothing to give away and something has to flow back somehow.

That's right 😉

The games of chance are mostly structured in such a way that you have to invest a lot until you win something.

I took part on three Slot Machines in the past. 750 Credits pumped in, and roundabout 620 Credits won.
When you want the exact Amount, let me know then i have to investigate my History again.
So at the end, i was loosing and decided to leave my Hands away from this.

Better the Sparrow in your Hand, than the Dove on the Roof.

So in my Opinion no need for another Level of Diamond or any other Status.

OK merci beaucoup @Amelly pour votre aide. Cela va me guider vers un futur achat. 😊

@Grabandt

Does totem know. that you will buy the tickets until the end of your life?

But you can anytime at any point say NO to the Product and Face your Attention to another
important thing in your Life.

@Wyldanimal

Maybe at 4500 cards
And at that level then you always have access to the Megabuy pack of Credits, 1100 credits for 99.99

Why does it make sense to Buy more Credits, when you already have every Show.
There are 35 Shows released per Month, 13,75 Credits (for triple Diamond) per Card x 35 = 481,25 Credits.
At the end you will have more Credits, as you can Buy Cards, the rest could be for Gambling if there is the
Attention to a Gambling Game.

@Wyldanimal and everyone thanks for the Help and I just look at my account and i t is there.

Non, tu ne devrais pas avoir à changer de carte graphique vu qu'elle réponds au minimum requis.
Cela va dépendre de l'utilisation que tu vas en faire après.
Ta carte graphique est déjà au format PCI Express 16x alors que la carte qui te permet de rajouter des ports USB 3 supplémentaires est au formati PCI Express 4x.
Quelle différence en 16x et 4x ?
C'est vitesse de la bande passante du bus PCI Express.
Quand à savoir si tu va devoir acheter une carte supplémentaire, je ne peux pas te répondre aujourd'hui.
Cela va dépendre de ce que tu vas acheter comme casque VR, si les ports USB 3 vont être ou pas reconnus par le casque.
Quelles différences avec HTC Vive ? Je ne sais pas, à toi de chercher sur le net.
Les plus ou les moins de l'un et l'autre système ? Je ne sais pas, à toi de chercher.

Qu'est-ce qui m'a décidé d'aller vers Oculus ? Le prix !!!
Le prix moyen en France d'un Oculus Rift S est d'environ 449€, celui d'un HTC Vive peut monter à plus de 1000€ sur certains sites.
Pourquoi cet écart de prix aussi important ? Il semble que les stocks concernant les HTC soient très faibles et donc plus difficiles à trouver.
Sont-ils meilleurs ? Pas sûr d'après les quelques commentaires que j'ai pu lire...

I'm for a new Level above Triple Diamond.
Maybe at 4500 cards
And at that level then you always have access to the Megabuy pack of Credits, 1100 credits for 99.99

👍👍👍
