They need to reinvest these easy earnings from the gambling and SE back into the product

During 2019, that has be done indeed (VR shows, 4K cam, new codec and better video quality - and there have been better beauties and better performances also). In first couple of months of 2020, though, new models did tend to be slightly worse, anyway it maybe would have been just a short moment (I remember it has been said, many times, that winter and Xmas times are not so good for shootings) and, so, probably things were about to change again - but then COVID-19 did arrive...

a stunning girl, who can dance a bit, who has some of the lowest ratings on the site, based on a script.

This could summarize the rating system 😖

I’ve completely fallen for Veronica Leal and Belka just wish I had the money to finished my Belka collection minus her event card. Two amazing models I could never get enough of .

My comment on her show a few minutes ago:

My advise at any commenter: look careful, there are NO scars; the red inkt is a tattoo. The breasts of Agatha are total natural. Agatha makes a very good debut!!!

Total 18 clips divided in Standing 6, Pole 6 and On TB 6. Some touching/rubbing in TB clips. No Bare feet. Starting Nude (just heels) one Standing, one Pole and one TB clip.

I knew Agatha from partnersite W4B, were she made her debut three years ago without any tattoo. A year later she had her first tattoo (our solar system on her back) and
the nipple piercings. Again a year later the breast tattoos were put on in red ink with the words “montirosa” and “manipuladora”. Superficially seen one can think it are scars,
but they are not. Her breasts are natural!!! The socalled sleeve on her underarm is the most recent one. Agatha has a soft, friendly face and her shapes are curvaceous, what
declares the title of this show. Her figure has the right proportions. No skinnyness here. The dress was beautiful, just as the high heels and the lace panties. At certain moments
a breast peeped out above the dress.

Agatha does a show mostly in the slower striptease style. So you have all the time to watch her curved body with her wide pelvis and her well developped butt. Her contact with
the camera is good and she smiles more then enough. At times her movements are squiggly. In the TB clips Agatha laughs slyly and is not shy. Perfect views on that ass/butt/bum.

The rating: Standing 4,5 (slower striptease style, squiggly), Pole 4,5 (learning fase, does her very best), Taskbar 5 (laughs slyly, not shy), Beauty 5 (friendly face, curved body) and
Outfit 5 (very nice dress and heels). Total 24/5 = 4,8-->5 stars. A good debut show of Agatha, but underrated by commenters/raters, who took a tattoo for a *****. NATURAL BREASTS!
------------------
As Music of the Show not a specific song, but all the music of the famous Venezuelan musician Oscar D’Leon. Before my retirement as teacher I once asked my female students
from the Dutch Antilles: “What is good Latin music?” One of the musicians they advised me, was Oscar D’Leon and so I learned from my students! “Mulate Coquete” is a good one.

Liar and *****.

Possibly best in a while with a nice phat ass. Juicy. I gave 5 stars.

merci pickle1

The tattoos says "Mentirosa" and "Manipuladora" ... oh the irony.

😂

Bonjour,

J'ai vue qu'il y'a dans les succès une carte avec 4 fille j'ai regardé dans toute les collection depuis 2007 et impossible de la trouvé a moins que c'est une carte très spéciale

merci

Hi @jean66 - the card is Lucy Heart "Sex on the Beach" and it is generally available, it is not an SEC.

Looks like a ***** so I don't disparage the low ratings but a stunning girl, who can dance a bit, who has some of the lowest ratings on the site, based on a script.

The more famous the porn star the more she can charge. Totem obviously want to get the girls for the least amount they can, it's just good business practice. Would you be willing to pay more for famous stars?
I'd be happy to pay a couple more credits for known stars that I like, like Bunny Colby or Jade Baker, for example. We already have most of the European stars I know of.

Judging by the ratings of the new and inexperienced girls I would say totem should take notice and invest first in europe to bring in well-balanced performers...girls in their prime...even if they are more expensive. They need to reinvest these easy earnings from the gambling and SE back into the product for sustainability. We've just haven't seen the reinvestment.

What happens when you run past the last free pack does it repeat or its just done?

Who's the girl in the Oktoberfest badge?

Would you be willing to pay more for famous stars?

It depends on what you mean by 'famous'.. Famous elsewhere or locally take2 s

if having totem exposure already has helped a certain model become 'famous' then
out of reach financially. We shouldn't have to wait 2 years to see that model again
if we can get her back 'while she is still hot'..so to speak. Maybe by, crowd funding for
a target goal ( ie: credits pre-spent/ prefrozen & commited unless the endeavour fails) or some such.

I saw the list of @Dfner: I wouldn't buy one card of those models.

My sentiments pretty accurately: my possible 2-3 of that list would be Lena Paul, Abella Danger and Alexis Texas. But Totem shouldn't pay any extra to get them to iStripper.

What has happened to the blondes? Are they dying out in Eastern Europe?

I don't think they are dying out :) Take a look at this map.

https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/7zp4jc/percentage_of_light_hair_in_europe_758x746/

For blondes they should cast their nets in Finland or central Sweden :) I know of only one porn performer from my country and even she might be fake blonde: https://www.indexxx.com/m/miss-melissa

I saw the list of @Dfner: I wouldn't buy one card of those models.

What has happened to the blondes? Are they dying out in Eastern Europe?

Many blond girls from Latvia ( I see them on Metart and Nubiles), Latvia a country of the Schengenzone. Easier to fly into Paris, when the lockdown becomes less tight. Easier than any USA pornstar model. One should also think practical.

The more famous the porn star the more she can charge. Totem obviously want to get the girls for the least amount they can, it's just good business practice. Would you be willing to pay more for famous stars?

I'd be happy to pay a couple more credits for known stars that I like, like Bunny Colby or Jade Baker, for example. We already have most of the European stars I know of.

I google searched "most famous porn stars" and first link (year 2020) was to this:

https://www.redbled.com/most-popular-pornstars/

... where they say "What data did we use? To determine pornstar popularity, we looked at Google Trends and PornHub statistics of the most viewed pornstars."

Their top20 list includes 6 stars that we already have at iStripper (unless I missed someone). Out of the remaining 14 I would welcome maybe 2 or 3. I would definitely NOT pay anything extra for these 20, I'd pay less if I could for most of them. These "porn stars" do different things. Their popularity is for something completely different to what they would be doing here.

I hope iStripper doesn't spend one cent extra for these "top stars", unless they can be assured that they bring marketing value that justifies that extra spending.

Oh God, just my luck...
When I finally got to the 2nd Free Pack one, it ran out of cards to show me...
If only they'd include recent cards. 😉

Would you be willing to pay more for famous stars?

I would not support a general price increase. They could, though, charge more for some (few) cards - as they are already doing, by the way.
Totem could, anyway, hire just a couple of famous pornstars every year; their - quite big - wages could be compensated by the smaller salaries of so called "unknowns", so that a price increase - which is not desirable neither would be appreciated - would not be necessary.

The more famous the porn star the more she can charge. Totem obviously want to get the girls for the least amount they can, it's just good business practice. Would you be willing to pay more for famous stars?

I remember when special cards were VIP cards and they were free to platinum members.

Solution would be: let be possible to buy Jokers to members having 3000+ cards in their own Collection.
It would be good both for us and for Totem, since more people would be willing to get an huge collection in order to obtain the SECs too.

I remember when special cards were VIP cards and they were free to platinum members. I think special cards should be free for Diamond members or Premium
No way, those cards make them so much money now. That'd be a great loss for the company that's used to gouging hundreds of credits for one card from 'completionists'.

Yeh, the SEC's just seem to be nothing more than a way of price gouging. I saw one person ***** that they had used up over 1000 credits to get a SEC and they didn't get it, There have been plenty of others that spend hundreds to get the card. When it was restricted to events like the the calendar it was fine but making them part of gambling games is just wrong. But until they have ***** all their best customers it will stay i guess...

Are the famous pornstars better? If it is, than it's in the f-cards since they have more experience with being filmed in masturbation shows, g/g and b/g. They are not better dancers: the best dancers in the last month's were for me Isabelle, Jessika, Angelika Grays, Elis (Czech), Ellie Leen (in the cards, where she's really dancing), Anastasia Brokelyn (a beginning pornstar) and Tina. My impression is that Totem selects the last year more on dance and pole dance skills. That's more important then their nationality.
I'm not convinced that pornstars are likely to be better on iStripper than unknowns, or that they will necessarily be more expensive.

Pornstars certainly seem to be more reliably good than unkowns at xxx, but only a few of them will have developed dance skills. There are many internet unknowns working the clubs and cams in Eastern Europe and they are equally likely to have the skills and beauty to put on a good show here. Of course, most unknowns won't want to strip on the net, but a proportion will and that number depends on economics and their alternative sources of income.

I think Totem finds it difficult to determine in advance who will do a good job. We know they ask for vids from unknowns and we know they've passed on some pornstars doing European tours - because surely the girls' agents will have contacted them. Maybe they were asking for too much money. But equally, we don't know how difficult it is to recruit unknowns, or how selective Totem is.

From the performers' point of view, maybe they sometimes need the money, but also they need the exposure, whether they are unknown or established pornstars. Whether they supplement their modelling with clubs, cams or escorting, a good iStripper performance must be useful.

So I suspect that Totem offers a pretty fixed fee for Take-1s and adjusts their profile in the market so that they get a regular flow of decent applicants (in their view). They'll modify their approach, if the proportion of pornstars/unknowns changes, for example if they fail to book any pornstars for a few months. They'll do the same if quality and hence sales drop off. Maybe they'll stretch a bit for a performer at the top of her career like Jia Lissa, but not enough to attract the likes of Kendra Sutherland.

So show quality will vary over time, depending on many things. Totem will almost certainly ignore the rumblings of the tiny minority of customers who participate in the Forum.

Fair analysis. I do think, though, that our rumblings do not go completely unheard and can be taken as some kind of an auxiliary tool when creating their policies, though.

Personally, I'm not sure about the benefits of hiring most famous pornstars here.

The fact that they are "the most famous porn stars" typically means that they already enjoy a LOT of exposure in your "standard" porn sites. And I would think that the reason they have gained that popularity is that they have done lots of scenes and action (in those standard porn sites) that they wouldn't be doing here. "The most famous porn stars" haven't become most famous for their dancing skills or solo performances, and their fan base probably look for different things.

Attaching a very famous name with the brand iStripper could be beneficial here, but only when it shows as web search hits for iStripper due to that connection (= people learn about this place through that connection).

Maybe the most famous adult stars that have gained their popularity not from straight porn, could be the best representatives of this product to potential clientele(?)

Thanks @lukaszr 👍

Would be nice if this feature was added.

Popping in my two-pennorth (old English expression), if there is a good reason for trying to get some American models it is to inject some fresh DNA into the Totem model gene pool.

Reading all the posts above, I looked back at the cards thst have been released recently (and those in the pipeline as per the Workshop) and I am struck by the similarity of the girls - the proportion who have similar slim body shapes with long dark (brunette or black) hair. The only real stand out is Eva Elfie - and her upcoming show will be the 14th! I am getting bored with the girls we are seeing.

What has happened to the blondes? Are they dying out in Eastern Europe? I can't post pictures here from non-iStripper but go and look at models like Kennedy Leigh from America - blonde (often short cut) hair, fabulous boobs and can give one heck of a BJ. So, if girls like Kennedy (and Skye Blue with the blonde cut) are only available from America, we need them.

IMHO

😄

I have no idea, nor I suspect do you, what percentage of new or old customers "come for the names they know". We can only guess. What I do know that it is not true in my case.

Same here.

New customers (and maybe also longer time customers) come for the names, they know.

Some time ago this promotion had a bug. You didn't have to restart iStripper. You could simply refresh the page and a new set of cards was drawn, but, if you bought a set, the wrong cards were added to your collection.

Information about the drawn cards is stored on the server. Deleting any files will not change the drawn set.

Is there a way to change the 3 pre-selected cards?

I remember a few years ago, by adding or removing cards from your wishlist, then restarting the program, you would have a new set of cards. Doesn't seem to work anymore.

Is there another way? By manually deleting a file in the Data folder for example.

Famous girls are a must have to keep the marketing going.

With this I agree and that's what Totem/iStripper is doing with Take 3's for Melena Maria Rya and Carolina Abril.
New customers (and maybe also longer time customers) come for the names, they know.

the no-name Ukrainians and Russians that we nowadays get.

I don't believe famous pornstars ask for a magnitude more money than the no-name Ukrainians and Russians that we nowadays get.

Pornstars know that Totem needs them, they have full agenda's and are in a stronger negotiation position. They can and will ask more, but no idea about how much more. Extra costs of famous names are evened out with new unknow models like Liana, Kristi, Eva Ginger. Totem/iStripper has a perfect nose for new (relatively unknown) talents like Jenny Wild and Sherice in the beginning of their career.

I agree more effort should be put into getting famous girls into the studio.

I tend to not agree. Team should search for beautiful and skilled models. I personally don't care at all if they are famous in the porn star system or not, it's quite the same for me.

I don't believe famous pornstars ask for a magnitude more money than the no-name Ukrainians and Russians that we nowadays get.

I believe they precisely do, instead.

I agree with both sentiments expressed here.

Famous girls are a must have to keep the marketing going.

In all honest, apart from Eva Elfie and Jia Lissa, maybe Liya Silver, when was it the last time we saw a true pornstar in the studios?

Oh, and Skye Blue, too, she's great.

I don't think it's possible anymore to write reviews of cards you do not own.And hope it will never be possible, also!

Indeed, that was a rather pointless exercise.

I do have reviews on cards that I do not own, but since they were removed from the store and my collection they're not accessible by the majority of users anymore.

sorry for the first post being unrelated to the packs but with 7 shows this week does that mean the studio is back in full swing and you don't need to ration shows anymore?

If so congrats. glad to have something in the world back to normal.

we're here to help :)

in shader it gives a higher result that the propper "=" version.

Thankfully atom ***** if i put "if( a = 0 ) do somthing();" so i catch those mistakes. It was just weird that it didn't catch it in the dist = . Thanks for explaining why.

I don't think it's possible anymore to write reviews of cards you do not own.

And hope it will never be possible, also!

I have one suggestion for future achievements, an expansion of the critic award. You could do several more like "serious critic" - write a review for 10 cards you own, "honorary Critic" - write a review for 30 cards you own. Maybe even "Psychic Critic" - write a review for a card you do NOT own. I think you get some fun out these kinds of achievements.

I don't think it's possible anymore to write reviews of cards you do not own.

Just click on picture 1 and use the left symbol under the picture to download it, and there you go. That´s all it is. Just a picture. It does not give you any advantages, nobody can even see this except yourself. All you can do with the badges is print them and make some scrambled eggs on it. On Steam, the Gaming Platform, you can see how many kids are chasing for the same kind of Badges and Achievements. They spend lots of money to get them. I always thought this are only kids who spend their pocket money, to impress their friends or making stands. But to see the same bullshit is working on an adult platform as well, makes me laugh a little bit. I really cannot believe it.

This reminds me on a quote of Friedrich Nietzsche:

“Even now man is more of an ***** than any of the apes.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Paint 3D didn´t save the dog, that result you see in 1st uploaded pic. That´s why I made another post with picture 2.

@gkar45

If somebody here is pulling your chain it is Totem. The 4.20 Badge making more money than any SEC does. Everybody is trying around the clock to get it. And as long as there are still people trying to get it, they will leave it be how it is. Money, Money, Money
