I don't mean to offend anyone...

personal chef! ahahaha. man.

I find it interesting that I can start a thread making an observation which admittedly was ill conceived yet no one was singled out and the responses from some of the "stars" has reached the level of calling people Nazis and perverts.

This is freeones. Most people tend to ignore the negatives coming from the females because they're slaves to ze pussy.

I sympathize Blue. A simple brainfart shouldn't incurr this much raving.

Obviously you have no clue what the life of a model, amateur or professional, is like so IMO yo are not qualified to comment.

I am most certainly qualified to comment here. I have been here as long as you have. Seen lots of activity and express my views as a consumer rather than a supplier. Papagmp, I don't know who you you are who you represent. But based upon the models that I have seen posted here on a regular basis, I can say that the person that you are looking to defend does not reflect the activity, or the communities interests of this board or this marketing tool named FreeOnes.

I've always kind of agreed with the OP that the word "star" is kind of overused, but it's mostly just a job title. That got me thinking that there were other dumb job titles, and hoping we could have fun, I tried posting something facetious, hoping for funny. That backfired, and people started being dumb. So, I invoked Godwin's law, and not the OP seems to think I think he's really a Nazi. Humor, boys, we solve this with humor. Or, if you're British, humour. Either way, people should relax.

OK - you are certainly "qualified to comment here". I just read the board rules and nowhere does it require any knowledge of anything in order to "be qualified to post here" (That's probably a good thing because I'd be banned in a heart beat if I had to have knowledge of a subject before I commented on it) but I did get the impression, maybe falsely, that you your understanding of what it's like for the ladies in this industry, varied widely from mine. And I'm willing to bet that there aren't more than a handful of active forum members that are in a better position to understand what it's like to be an OSCM than I am (other than the OSCM's themselves).

As for me, I represent myself. It's no secret that, as an "Approved Content Owner", I own or produce my own adult content. Most people also know that I own three websites, where I finance, schedule, recruit & hire talent and crew, direct, preform for and do all post-production tasks, including most of our marketing. So when it comes to understanding OSCM's, one of which is my roommate, three of which are personal friends and half a dozen of which I've actually worked with, I'm probably slightly more qualified than the average board member to see how your post looked to them. Although even I screw that up sometimes.

I'm not sure where I gave the impression that I was trying to defend a "person" as opposed to the collective group of OSCM's and other talent that works in the industry - but to clarify I'm defending, if you want to call it that, the general pool of adult talent, including myself. It get's real old to continually hear people make statements about how simple it is for a porn model. In reality, their job carries pressures and stresses that are difficult for people outside the industry to understand. And most people tend to thing porn models make a lot more $$$ than than they do. Hell, my editor has earned more money this year than any of my models. Sure the models make more per hour but finding regular work can be real difficult.

OSCM is a title that is used to identify female members that have worked or are working in the industry and verify that the same individual is the one posting under the OSCM account. No where that I've read does it say that these girls have to be "stars". The purpose of having the OSCM title is to ensure that members can be reasonably sure that we are talking to the person they claim to be.

Each OSCM comes here for different reasons. Those that have their own sites, come here for much the same reason that I do. We use FreeOnes to promote our own products directly. For example, Dirty Little Holley has her own website so cultivating fans here at FreeOnes may be one of her goals. Other models may not have their own sites and may just come here to see their fans. Bottom line is fans get to interface with models in a way unique to FreeOnes.

One should also remember that where normal FreeOnes members can remain anonymous on this board, OSCM's and Approved Content Owners have to reveal a bit more about themselves. One click on my signature link and you get a fair idea of who I am. I feel this is a good thing but it makes us, especially the girls, a bit more vulnerable.

I'm also fairly qualified to comment as a consumer of porn as I and own a collection that spans 30 years and consists of over 12,000 titles.


Anyway - let's be nice to our "Stars" - even if they are not yet superstars.

exactly. wtf people?

 

[RichardNailder]

anyone who makes their living as the subject matter in adult video productions and still photography is fully deserving of being a OCSM here...

What about the guys who send you penis pictures? Shouldn't they get OCSM status too?

Only if they make their living from it.



So Dirk, please quit sending penis pictures to Petra thinking it's gonna get you OSCM status.


You'd do better selling them to will-e...... and remember, he prefers you in your choir-boy outfit.


Report the income to Petra, make a few freeones fan-signs and presto.







Oh - and remember, the costume is tax deductible.

 

[bobjustbob]

I would never insult any model that decides to go through the work of having their work produced. Question their integrity or their ethics. Time and labor to produce any product is commendable to me. In the same token any person that produces a service or product deserves the same respect. Some do it better than others. Regardless of what title we wear on our sleeves it just isn't right to denigrate people just because of their profession. That was the mindset from my response to Claryabeau. It was a,"look at these peasants" attitude that came across. If Claryabeau is going to make judgments about labels then she should look first at her badge as OCSM.

 

[Hypergalaxy]

Lets give the man some credit. He actually created a topic to discuss, got other viewpoints and now admits he was wrong. Something that rarely happens on this forum. :clap:

After seeing the OCSM Thread today I am retracting this post. I have to admit BC was right in his original post. Taking nude pics of yourself and having a twitter, tumblr or facebook page does not make you a "star" by any means. If anything it belittles the title.

 

[alexpnz]

I'm thinking something in a public bathroom, poor light, stinky urinals and someone oh their knees with a mouth full of cock holding a FreeOnes fan-sign.


Gotta have the fan-sign to be an OSCM!

Wheres yours?

You are an OCSM er....ACO....er.....whaterverthefuck, right Papagimp?

 

[Ari Dee]

You express your views as a consumer? You may be acquiring goods, but it's not like anyone is paying to be here, as far as I know.
It's just a title. I don't see why it should be worthy of some exclusive status. It's not that serious.

I get what the OP is saying, but come on- what are you supposed to do instead, try to estimate the fan base to see whether or not the OCSM is worthy of the title in your eyes?

Meh.

 

[lurkingdirk]

I was once an OCSM, but Petra revoked it when she found out I'm an overweight dude from New Jersey.
