Again, a whale is considered anyone that spends $100 or more regularly on someone or something. That is the universal agreed upon number that most people say when they talk about whales. I'm sorry you guys think it should be higher, but it's not. Ryo would be considered a whale. Even if he only spent $154 dollars during the month. He still spends $100 on average regularly. Until he stops spending $100 regularly he will be considered a whale. Maybe not by you guys, but by the general consensus. I'm not sure why that's a hard concept for you guys to grasp. I guess part of the problem could be that you guys only think in terms of cam models and the top cam girls at that. Where as I'm thinking more in generalities of where it is applying to everything. Which is what most people think of, not their own niche hobby. Basing your definition of a whale on the top models is a dumb metric to begin with. Because there are plenty of whales who are not in the top rooms that spoil some very average girls consistently. If you guys want to think that someone consistently spending $100 every time someone comes on, even if it is only once or twice a month, isn't a whale. That's a you problem. Cause they are. Again, I'm not sure why that's such an odd concept for you guys to grasp. Being a whale generally thought of as a person consistently spending a high number regularly. The reason $100 is the entry point is because the average person can't or won't spend more than that consistently. I would even argue that the average person wouldn't spend more than $50. However, I think there's more people willing to spend $50 than $100. Which you can tell from how many people are willing to being in something like a club show on MFC versus a group. Being a whale is more about consistent behavior patterns, not necessarily the amount spent.
Unless it applies to your own job so you can figure out how much to try and get a raise for. People who talk about how much other people make are losers. Yes, you can throw me into that category as well. I don't like talking about it; however, sometimes it can't be helped. I have gotten myself involved in that conversation and because of that it makes me one. Especially in a room like this where people like LeBadger consistently likes to bring it up for no reason. We were talking about what constitutes as a whale and the price of her new video. Then he came in arguing about her money again. We were not necessarily talking about her finances, but okay. I think he's more obsessed about how much she makes more than anyone. I don't know that the rest of us really care that much. It also breeds contempt and can make things way more heated than they need to be. Talking about it doesn't usually bring any good or relevance to a conversation. Hence why I said it makes them a loser for even discussing it. Myself included.
