I personally am not insulted. It's not any worse than any of the other webcam porn sites out there. That said, I'm terrible at relationships (Fortunately, my girl can look past that) but I'd never use that site.

No opinion, but only because I don't even know what it is, and frankly? After reading the thread, I'll keep it that way.
Excuse me if I'm wrong, but I thought it was all done via webcams and voice chat.Keepitclean said:

Do i think it's stupid, yes. Am i insulted no.
Why the fuck would i be insulted? Just cause some gamers will pay to webcam with chicks while playing doesn't mean i will, should i be insulted as a man, that there are female prostitues? Should i be insulted as a dane (from Denmark) that theres prostitution in Denmark?
No, just cause someone who is in teh same "group" as me if sorted by one thing (gamer/male/Danish/etc) are pathetic enough to pay for company or sex or something else doesn't mean i am, or that people will think i am.
Dating doens't cost more than you want it to, and it's not the dating itself that costs, it's what you do while on the date (eating, movies etc), which would've cost money if you did it alone as well,
Theres lots and lots of free legal porn online.
So the only thing that costs is MMO's but thats usually cause of the new content they keep adding, and the huge servers that must support thousind of player on each server at the same time.
As far as i can tell, this is just a pic-in-pic webcam chat slapped on top of an already existing game with online escorts, nothing like an MMO.
But it does bring up some interresting ideas, a lot of games have some sort of interface-avatar, think WoW character portraits, MW2 call-signs etc. What if you could have a web-cam stream in those, just you and teh people you're playign with, not someone you pay to play with you. That might be interresting, but then again, i'd hate to have to see ppl jerk off while raiding...
Prostitution is a service proffesion, those couldn't have existed untill someone productive profession existed, otherwise there would be nothing to pay with apart form otehr services, which would mean they'd be equally old.
If cave-women prostitutes didn't get paid they weren't prostitutes, just horny like everyone else.
I bet ya you can't anme a single thing, which they could get in return, that didn't require the paying part to have some sort of profession first. Unless they got teh sex in advance and that was what drove them to do something.

I've seen adds for tons of free dating sites.Stasisesque said:

Then how did people pay? when prostitution came around if there wasn't any other professions? cause money wasn't invented, meat required hunting, a profession, clothes required hunting AND old-school tailoring, a profession, fruit required gathering, also a profession, protection would be sortof teh old school bodyguard.LimaBravo said:

And retarded. You can get porn for free on the internet. It's not like they actually like you if they interact with you over this sort of thing. They are just doing it for the money.TooMiserableToLive said:
If it makes them money how can I be offended? It works, they are right, gamers are that lonely that they will pay for the most minor form of female socialising.
If it doesn't make them money (but it will) then we can laugh at them for thinking we would actually pay for such a service.
By we I don't mean me, I mean some gamers somewhere, I'll find girls to game with normally. (By not actively seeking them)
That said can I sign up? I'll happily get paid to play games with nooblets.

Im not offended but I do get a pathetic feeling when I think about it. (that should be a poll option)
I don't feel offended by it. I don't give a shit. If they want to make money that way, let them.
I will try to pick my words carefully.
Some girls have been "taking advantage" of men for millennia, prostitutes and pole dancers are the prime examples.
This is just another niche for some girls to exploit.
I am not saying all girls are like this but some do.
If there is an opportunity to make money all the power to them, if guys want to pay then it's there money.
Who am I to judge things like that, not my cuppa tea though.

Yes there are free dating sites out there, as there are free porn sites as you say. There are also "free" MMOs, for that matter, and taking someone on a date can cost nothing at all. But if we're going to be so pedantic, I should point out there are a ton of free cam2cam sites, as well.teisjm said:
Thing is, despite all of these free options, people will still pay for porn, for dating sites, for MMOs, for cam2cam sites because they believe by paying for it, they're getting better service/options; and while there is money to be made, there will be sites like this. However, this is the first (I've heard of) that combines "porn", "dating" and "gaming" (quoted as not entirely accurate) in an ingenious way. It will get business from those who want to take advantage of it for whatever reason (and this doesn't have to necessarily mean those desperate for a date and too socially awkward to talk to people on an equal basis), not to mention those who are simply intrigued by the idea.
There are still matchmaking services out there, used not by the desperate, or lonely, but the too busy to find the time to find a girl/guy. There are still escorts, again, not always used by the desperate or the lonely (more often by those with the money, but not the time). GameCrush is fairly cheap, very safe and will be raking in the cash.
No doubt they'll make cash, must've misunderstood your post, my bad.Stasisesque said:
Ofc they'll have to belive they will be a succes and not just think a few peopel will come, put up a shitty server and then have it crash cause too many people use it... oh wait that actually happened according to the news article linked in here.
But yeah it'll be a success, hopefulyl they won't bring it to team-play games, cause i sure as hell would hate to loose in HoN cause one of my team-mates was too bussy chatting with an escort to play proberbly.
