If there are so many MEMBERS who favor low tipping, who are the agents who made them renege on the demand side?
I think I get the principle to premiere rate privates right out of existance in favor to force us to get VODs, but to price us out of tipping also is rather strange.
Does anyone out there think what kind of message this pounding on us sends?
The world's economy is getting so much dire and all movements here act as in the opposite direction.
once again g flirt is driving us elsewhere first with tne elinination of the 150 cap on 24 hrs of vods an now i cant tip 5 an credits tips

I have used multiple small donation tips on several occasions, anything from 5 - 25 in blasts of ten or so at a time, usually to break up some pestering "client" begging. I have never witnessed a disappointed model yet when raining tips "for fun" -
Yes fun, something which is slowly fading away!
Just like me. Quote

I love the 5 and 10 credit tip option. I called them my hugs and kisses on the cheek. And they usually led up to bigger tips..like the 250 to 500 credit french kiss. Please bring them back
yes, please bring them back. Thanks Quote

Oh hell no...buh-bye Purple Rain.
Horrible timing VS. It's called a Recession for a reason. Bad enough that you suddenly got stingy with the VIP discounts, but after recently having a one hour pvt not be recorded, plus riding on the gimped-out, hit or miss VOD player dejour carousel for the past two months, I AM NOT inspired by your new Inflated (ooops), I mean EXPANDED Tip options. (Nor was I impressed by your 6 screen voyeur thingy)
Yeah, count one more huge NOPE from me. I thought the lower tips were fun (didn't I read that somewhere??LOL). VS seems to disregard that their members all have different spending styles and the more wide range of choices the better. I fricking ADORE my fav models and I show my appreciation by having looonnng $$$ privates. Only when I visit other rooms or new models will I tip 25-50 credits at a time just to be polite or have fun. Hell would freeze over before I ever just throw out 1000-100,000 credits in one swoop on a model, favorite or not. Just saying.

A $10,000 tip??? are you nuts? I can't imagine what a model could do on cam for a $10,000 purple rain. short of imaculate conception. 
And why on earth would anyone need F4F to facilitate and share in that kind of transaction?
I also...am just saying. Quote

You can still send the 5 and 10 credit tips from the performer's bio page via the GIFTS tab.
We found an issue where the audio was muted and unable to be un-muted so we have temporarily rolled back the interfaces to the ones that don't support variable tipping (open room only) until we squish this small bug. Should have it sorted out shortly.

Yes you can still tip a model with the 10 credits through the model's BIO page, but the 5 credit tip is gone.
It was so much fun to see the tips in the model's chat room. Some viewers cannot be big spenders and are limited to what they can do. A small tip in appreciation was the way we showed this a long with taking the time to chat with the model when so many viewers refuse to say anything.
I do believe that some of the big spenders may see us now as looking for freebees because we chat and don't tip. Hey I am not referring to a lot of those viewers who have the ability to take models private who I have had the pleasure to meet. They know who they are and that is really all that counts. The site is a great place to meet some cool models and viewers alike.
The 5 and 10 credit tips in the chat room were a lot of fun. A few viewers may have expected to see something as a result of giving them, but for many of us it was our way to say thank you and nothing else.
I would like to see the site bring them back, but if this is not the case I will accept what they choose to do. Both the site and the models should realize that sometimes it is the little things that make the site a great place to visit.
I am sure other viewers will agree with me on this one and perhaps a few models as well.
At the end of the day it is really all about having a good time and ignoring the view points of third parties who like to attack both models and viewers for the shear fun of it.
I sincerely hope that the site considers what I have said and becomes known as the place to come to and have a good time.
Thank you to all who may have taken the time to read this message. Quote

Just another stupid idea of getting rid of the 5 and 10 credit tips. 
Dammit would you guys pull your heads out of your asses when you make these decisions.
Just like other things here it was fine before you fucked with it.

There have been many responses to this new change but VS has not made an attempt to respond to the comments. While the custom tip option is a great addition, the 5 and 10 credit tips should not be omitted. Please work out the details and bring back these options.

Precisely what I was thinking!
If I had those kind of financial resources...sure, I'd be very generous here.
BUT
with all due respect to the site, I'd find a more creative and exciting venue for this type of entertainment. That said, everyone's thought processes (not to mention circumstances) are different. I speak only for myself.

I'd been looking for an option to drop $10 000 impulsively, but have always lacked the means to buy a tiny sports car that could make me look the part of a giant. Thank you for making this happen.
I suspect I'll be proven wrong when the monthly totals are reviewed and all models and the site see a net increase in expenditures, but it's my intuition that this change doesn't help.
It's been a lot of fun to tip in denominations of 38, 57, 73 and drive a model up the wall as she tries to do the math from her topical goal as the purple accumulates. But that appeal has been limited. The option to tip 1 000 or 2 500 or more credits I'm sure is a welcome feature for a few, but what have we lost?
I can go to the Gifts and send a smaller denomination but the gratification isn't instant. Does the model have to check her mail as we do to find she's been tipped? It in no way enhances the room, if she flashes in appreciation for 'making it rain' in 5 or 10 credit tips privately sent via message does anyone else realize she's been tipped, or do they simply perk up thinking she'll freely show the goods? I suppose the site can try the cash register and magic mushroom sound effects of other sites, that isn't in any way annoying or out-dated ;)
This seemingly limits the options for models and members. I know 5 or 10 in itself is a small tip - .50 or $1.00 USD spent by the member, non-discounted. By itself probably not getting anyone much more than a thank you acknowledgment. But I'd suggested before and others have as well that these do not exist in a vacuum, those tip amounts could encourage others to open their deep pockets and also tip a little when they'd otherwise not. Small amounts encourage games when the room is slow. "Help me reach 100 credits with tips and I'll flash", guessing games where wrong answers demand a little tip, correct answers get a little reward.
The site will do what it thinks is in the best interest of all. Just adding one more soprano to the chorus that this isn't being perceived as a best interest. Quote
