Yeah, I was sent information about how you rank models. Some combination of a running hourly average and members rating their profiles. I hear there is a penalty for models who get long privates. I have heard that models can be on the first page and get a very long private and then get dumped to a back page when they come out of private. I assume this is a problem with the algorithm you use to track how much a model makes each hour. It seems if the algorithm checks the models and the model has not closed a transaction because she is in private a long time then it's like she has earned nothing. This is just a guess though because I don't have enough data yet. I have heard that many short privates will get a model up to the top faster than long ones will. This means that models who give fast shows for members and do not get too personal are rewarded for this with better placing on the site, but models who are more personal and try to make connections with members may be penalized albeit unintentionally.

If the models is told that the countries she is choosing to block are blocked and people there can't see her on cam then why not make a video to promote herself? I don't think it's clear to the models the videos will be given away for free to all visitors and there is no filtering of visitors in the countries they chose to filter.
Also I heard specifically that many models have sent you requests to remove videos and they are ignored. The owner of the studio in Russia that had the model who killed herself told us that when they asked you to take off the videos of her the reply they got from your company was that the videos are your property and you can do what you want with them and you won't take them off. I haven't seen the exact text of the response yet. I will ask for more details.

Filtering by credit card doesn't help when visitors in the home countries of many of the models probably don't even have credit cards. Your join page for models is very misleading about this also. The text from you join page is below...........
"Region Blocking Options -- We allow our performers to block certain regions of the world for privacy's sake. This way you don't chance having your next door neighbor see you on cam!"
"don't have to chance having your next door neighbor see you on cam!" gives these models and studios an illusion of privacy that is completely inaccurate. I think that is where your problems are coming from
