@Krell well said. Whether they fall into the legal definition of gambling or not, SECs are exploitative and cynical. They target the weaknesses of some of Totem's most loyal customers and those customers deserve better.

Thanks for sharing the above perspective. I also don't think it's going to stop these practices, but at least we can let them know we don't want this kind of thing. Sady, it seems that more people atually enjoy it.

I know this won't change anything. The SECs are clearly too lucrative for Totem to abandon. But I will continue to voice my opposition to them, in the hope that my words might convince one or two more people to spare themselves from the misery which always accompanies gambling

@ComteDracula

Looks like you touched a nerve there!
Totem is not a democracy - it's a business. A business which has grown due to the support of its customers over the years. It's a business which has become increasingly committed to profit.
The SECs are nothing but a cynical mechanism to exploit a rather basic human weakness: gambling

I used to manage off-course betting shops, and I've watched many ordinary people ruin their lives because of their addiction. It was much more visible to me, because physical money was required to place a bet. When a victim ran out of money, he had to go to an ATM, or leave. Fridays were always the worst. Young men, with their fresh pay-packets, full of hope. Maybe they had a wife and children to support, and their basic wage didn't cover their needs? Maybe it was simply the thrill? The outcome was invariably the same: they would leave shortly after, having been cleaned out. I have no idea how many lives I played a part in destroying before I finally left the business, but I still remember the familiar haunted look on their faces when the reality of their situation finally became clear to them.

The SECs utilise an even more insidious method of exploitation - the mouse and virtual payment. We don't have to walk into a shop and hand over our hard-earned physical banknotes to buy our site credits, so we're already one step removed from our own responsibility. Then when Friday comes, and a new SEC obtainable only through wagering, we become even more vulnerable, because "just one more click" might be all that is required. Except, for the vast majority of Totem's customers, the reality is simply that the SECs will require massive investment to acquire. And it's mostly empty investment, due to the games of chance. Admittedly, last week there was an opportunity to obtain by meeting specific buying criteria, but even then, the pursuit of that one card meant heavy investment in other cards, which the customer had previously decided they did not want to purchase, simply because now they included the carrot of the elusive SEC

Of course, one other major difference between my experience of running a betting shop and Totem's virtual gambling model, is that I was also frequently threatened with violence when the anger felt at the loss of one's own money due to their own psychological weakness manifested itself. We had screens built in to protect us, but I've had butchers' knives waved at me, seen furniture thrown at the screens, and one time I even had to arrange for a Police escort home for a pregnant cashier who received a death threat from a customer for refusing to take his late bet. I mention this not as some sort of veiled threat, but further emphasise the unseen damage which gambling can have on people

I know this won't change anything. The SECs are clearly too lucrative for Totem to abandon. But I will continue to voice my opposition to them, in the hope that my words might convince one or two more people to spare themselves from the misery which always accompanies gambling

Pourrais-je savoir pourquoi les images des avatars ont été supprimés ?

En quoi ne respectent-elles pas vos règlements ?


May I know why the avatar images were deleted?

How are they not respecting your regulations?

Thank you very much @alarsi71.

Very nice avatar.

I readily adopt it without any hesitation.

It is also a nice snub to the rather ironic situation, that I will end up no longer in the list of the best buyers, and this, even if I buy everything. Because I would not have obtained all the SEC cards, out of respect for my principles.


Merci beaucoup @alarsi71.

Très bel avatar.

Je l'adopte volontier sans aucune hésitation.

C'est aussi un beau pied de nez à la situation assez ironique, que je vais finir par ne plus être dans le palmarès des meilleurs acheteurs, et ce, même si j'achète tout. Parce que je n'aurais pas obtenus toutes les cartes SEC, par respect pour mes principes.

@DTH77 Yes definitely worth the Download 👍 Thank you very much :)

@ComteDracula....and available in a premium version.....no contests or raffles...😂

Thank you @7171al71, I will also suggest this 2020 version, which by the way is very pretty.

Merci @7171al71, je vais suggérer aussi cette version 2020, qui au passage est très jolie. Merci.

@ComteDracula: I remember such an illustrious moment in this forum, what started out as a joke on my part became an emblem. It was beautiful to see so many users with the same avatar.
So I leave you the 2020 version

Considering the amount of guns in America alone, I believe 99.9999% of civilians who posses a gun here, aren't planning to ***** people with them either.

As far as vehicles are concerned most people who buy a car aren't initially planning to planning to ***** people either but ***** and reckless driving along with inattention (all of which are conscious decisions) ***** a great many people worldwide. More than illegal gun shootings, I believe, by a considerable margin.

As far as animals are concerned I wasn't addressing that but I see animals ***** by cars on the road virtually every day in the area where I live. Darn, I'm so sorry Mr. Deer/Cat/Dog/Raccoon/Squirrel but I just couldn't be bothered to swerve around you since I was texting on my phone or at 30mph over the speed limit and couldn't miss you in time... Whether on purpose or not, the animal (or person) is just as dead.

How many defendants at sentencing time after ***** someone with a gun or a car stand up and with crocodile tears flowing, say something along the lines of: "I didn't mean to shoot/hit him or her and I'd take it back if I could, Please forgive me...." Whether on purpose or not that person is just as dead.

Whether you personally like it or not, using a gun to hunt/***** animals in the wild as a sport, is legal in most countries in the world.

Both guns and cars are tools and when used legally for their intended purpose, they serve that purpose and are justified.

However when either are misused, no matter why, each is just as unlawfully deadly as the other.

The point being that until the human variable enters the scene, neither tool ***** anyone and just sits collecting dust.

But when that human makes a conscious decision to misbehave while using said tools, people (or animals) start getting ***** or worse.

Stop blaming the tools and focus the attention at the place (the human variable) where it can actually do some good. And unfortunately I don't have the solution for that either but I know what we have been doing so far isn't working. A new approach is needed.

And I apologize for doing my part in helping this thread slide off track but this is a subject on which I have spent much time contemplating and I lost focus on the o/p's original complaint. Mea culpa.

It might be a good idea given the return of Melena Maria Rya, here on istripper for Take 4, that people who are against SECs only getting by gambling, adopt these images (creations of @alarsi71) as their avatar.

Just as a little reminder.

Thank you. 😊

N.B. I want to clarify that there is nothing against Totem in this action. Nothing will happen to those who join. On the other hand, people who disapprove, like me, of obtaining SEC's only through gambling, must make their voices heard. In all democracies, people have the right to speak, and to be able to express their dissatisfaction with certain policies, on condition that this is done with respect. This is democracy. I especially want to avoid, among other things, that Totem remake us for a second time, this bad trick of the SEC card of the wonderful Melena Maria Rya.

It is high time that Totem respects its buyers, who refuse to play games of chance to obtain SEC (Special Event Card)

This is an opportunity to show your dissatisfaction with this policy.

Therefore, let us take the opportunity to share all of these same avatars, symbol of our solidarity.


Ce serait peut être une bonne idée vu le retour de Melena Maria Rya, ici sur istripper pour une prise 4, que les personnes qui sont contre les SEC s'obtenant seulement avec les jeux de hasard, adopte ces images (créations de @alarsi71) comme avatar.

Juste comme petit rappel.

Merci. 😊

N.B. Je tiens à préciser qu'il n'y a rien contre Totem dans cette action. Il n'arrivera rien à ceux et celles qui y adhèrent. Il se doit par contre que les personnes qui désaprouvent, comme moi, l'obtention des SEC's seulement par le gambling, fassent entendre leur voix. Dans toutes les démocraties les gens ont le droit de parole, et de pouvoir manifester leur mécontentement face à certaines politiques, et ce, à la condition que cela se fasse dans le respect. C'est ça la démocratie. Je veux surtout éviter entre autres, que Totem nous refassent pour une seconde fois, ce mauvais coup de la carte SEC de la merveilleuse Melena Maria Rya.

Il serait plus que temps que Totem respecte ses acheteurs, qui se refusent de jouer aux jeux de hasard pour obtenir des SEC (Special Event Card)

C'est une occasion de montrer votre mécontentement face à cette politique.

De ce fait, profitons en pour partager tous et toutes ces mêmes avatars, symbole de notre solidarité.

okay thanks guys

@Lloydn
after the problems we have with police and riotersI don't see any problems with police and rioters, but i see a problem with some or a few Individuals
which are wearing those real Uniforms and real Guns.

Keyword: Mental Health
Because you shouldn't give a real Gun and a real Uniform to someone with Mental Health issues.
And believe it or not, it is also a Problem here in Germany, unfortunately.

Keyword: NSU 2.0
Feed the Google Search bar with it, and you will have a look at the human Abysses ... unfortunately.

But you can give a funny Costume and a plastic Gun to a nice and sweet looking Girl,
to play with our Fantasies.
The Show from Eve Sweet is an Erotic Parody, so don't give too much Attention to those
negative events in our real World, it's not worth it 😉

And there is always the possibility for you, to not Buy this specific Show.
Otherwise Eve is too Sweet to ignore any of her Shows, only my Opinion.

America has 100k deaths a year from ***** and ***** overdoses...finding a mentally healthy individual can be difficult. The craziest person I knew when I was in college, actually couldn't pass a college class, became a gang unit cop after a few months of training. HIs grandpa worked on the ***** and so he got the nepo pass on his exams. The most racist, sexist, bigoted person I ever met, and I live in a very conservative state. I actually can't imagine why anyone would become a cop...relatively low pay...extremely stressful job...it must attract some doozies...especially in low income areas.

We need a new badge!!!

This badge will be for people who refuse to buy/chase/etc. Special event cards!

What would the badge look like?

Who's in???

This image has existed before, with a very popular girl here, without necessarily being a badge.

Don't you remember?

Real guns are inanimate objects until a human picks one up and uses it for nefarious purposes.

Vehicles (Driven by humans) ***** bunches of people as well and I don't see anyone clamoring for them to be banned because of it.

Society needs to quit blaming the tool for what the wielder does with it.

the main reason for a car is movement.
the main reason for a gun is to ***** (humans, animals, etc.....)

If you buy a car, then 99.99999% of the time you are not planning to ***** with it.

(My brother-in-law is a gun nut; he even trains police because of his skills and experience. He knows the purpose and reasons to have a gun. He doesn't compare it to cars.)

I like guns.

I don't particularly like them as props in iStripper.

I don't think this is a big deal.

Brick House by The Commodores around the 1970s. It was used a lot in strip clubs in my area. Check it out on Youtube.

OK, may have answered my own question, but does this have to do with the number of clips in each card?

Question: I have noticed over the last couple of years that the older cards, in a lower resolution, download slower than the newer cards do, which are in a higher resolution. One would think that the opposite would be true, the thought being that the higher resolution cards would actually take up more HD space. Just wondered why this appears to be the case. Thanks and keep up the good work bringing us wonderful and beautiful models!

Melena Maria Rya... and her beautiful pussy! X)

Completely agree with you @Mickeyb and we're not the only ones who think so.

Many share this opinion.


Entièrement en accord avec vous @Mickeyb et nous ne sommes pas les seuls à penser cela.

Plusieurs partagent cet opinion.

guys isnt it dangerous to use women with guns here after the problems we have with police and rioters....there was a new card with a girl and guns...thats not very teasteful

Let's start with the real problem; real guns! Then move on to movie props, shall we? Maybe BB guns soon after...

I cannot roll my eyes any more or they will evacuate their sockets.

I finally got a joker after about 1200 credits run through the slot machine!

Man, I ran 1.2K credits and got four jokers. I guess I'm lucky.

I just got around to trying this, and it works great.

Nice.

And you know I had to, once again, complete my collection of mocha girls.....until you produce some more that is....

@mgunner2010 - and there are 4 more Fanfan from her first take plus 2 more from Stella.

👍

I have never seen a single letter even, so I guess it must be pretty hard to get the Joker. Still, I got my first two SECs this week, one on a scratch card and one with the measuring tape, so I am very happy. I hope I don't catch the collector bug, though!

I've spent $5,000+ on cards over the last decade. It is expensive but, I just keep telling my wife, think of how much I've saved by not going to strip joints!
:)

100% agree, it should be called...FEC (Fustrating Event Card)....😂

@2scompanyinjax so how many jokers do you have all together

I use my Jokers when I get them, so I have none at the moment. I have all of the cards except for 4 SEC cards.

And you know I had to, once again, complete my collection of mocha girls.....until you produce some more that is....

@pickle1 Very nice review. I also think that is Antonia Sainz's best show. Great eye contact with the camera/viewers, and that skirt looks excellent on her. I also love her smile and how she clearly seems to enjoy every second she is performing ❤️

As she is currently on the Crazy Week banner, a quick reprise of Antonia Sainz - The Real Deal

This always had the makings of a great show – the beautiful Antonia in a business outfit with a button up cardigan. And sure enough, when she appeared behind the table in clip 5 with only the cardigan on, she nailed it.

And the cherry on top of the icing on the cake is her beautifully trimmed pussy.

Why did we only get 6 shows from her?

She moves well, she is a porn star, she has soft natural tits, she does XXX, pantyless upskirts – dammit, she has everything. She comes on in standing clip 7 fully clothed – and then you realise the panties are missing – that is the ultimate office fantasy. And then in standing clip 8 fully dressed again but this time she slips the panties off from under the skirt. Instant boner! And then she does it again in standing clip 14 (full nudity this time). Standing clip 16 starts no shirt / no panties. Table clip 9 – shirt and skirt, no underwear. This girl knows how to tease.

Bare feet in table clip 10 and 15. And generally some nice clips showing her pussy and giving it a little rub.

@Llander She's Antonia Sainz.

And she is delightfully mucky 😍😍😍
