Hi Ronit
I'll give you some insight as to what people use the gifting link for...
If I do a private cam with someone, say they book me for 15 minutes, but the cam goes on longer... 15 mins turns into 30 mins, ok, not a problem, if I'm enjoying myself that's cool. I don't invoice anyone for the additional time, they paid for 15 mins, they're getting at least 15 mins. Anything over that time is on me because it's all at my own discretion. At times when the cams have run over the time they booked for, guys have tipped me thru that gift link, as a "thank you".
Mind you, I don't ask for tips, it's a courtesy, much like when someone tips on Streamate. And I don't charge on a minute by minute basis, unlike Streamate. Mine is a flat rate.
Also, if someone requests a custom video from me, and they ask me to use/wear something in the video that I don't currently own/possess. I have to go buy said item. That link enables them to send the amount that's needed for me to go buy their specific item.
And, I've had many, many people ask me if I have a "wish list". I do not. I've never had a wish list in the 15 years I've been online. That link allows them to send whatever amount they wish for me to get something for myself, whether it's lingerie, hair products, nail polish they want to see me wear in a video for the site, etc. I don't ask for ANYTHING, and anyone who's ever been a member of my site can attest to that.
As far as the "huge gifts from friends and customers from all over the world!" ... Maybe that happens in your world, but in the world I live in? Nope.
Honey, I drive a Honda, not a Porsche. I'm a regular everyday person, not a millionaire by far.
But, I do donate to two institutions and have for many years: St. Jude and MD Anderson Cancer Center.
I hope this gives you some clarity on who I am.
