You make a very valid point there Sarah. And I'm not talking about the particular webcammers on this thread, as I don't know them, but having looked through Adultwork there are plenty of webcam girls who just don't have a clue when it comes to setting up their profiles, and with some actual camming too. I mentioned on another thread recently that one girl wanted 3 credits per minute for a private session, and the cam was of such poor quality that I could barely make out it was a girl.. As a result I'm sure she is really making hardly any $$$ and as such, there are a fair few girls that need a guiding hand to maximise their earnings, there are a lot of webcammers out there and I'm sure fighting for business is hard and they need to stand out from the crowd. However, the girls don't need to be ripped off either, which I can see some groups are getting money for nothing. And to your point, it's better to make 50% of something than 70% of nothing!
I also acknowledge that there are plenty of girls on adultwork who are very good at what they do, and should rightly be independent, but some I do believe need that 'helping hand'.
However, I also don't condone bullying and as such a genuine businessman wouldn't resort to such tactics and a genuine contract would have something such as a 30 day notice period, for either side to end the contract. Under such an agreement though, I would have thought that the webcammer would no longer have the right to use the same profile, using the same clients and feedback built up under the contract, but would be free to start a new profile.
