Moderators are like guardian angels for models. But first of all, you have to have a connection with the person, in order to assign him as a moderator.
Tarasfo gave us some helpful advices in how to chose a mod, and in the same time, how to maintain a positive atmosphere in chat rooms.
1. Hello 🙂 how are you today?
Hello there! I am feeling very well thank you!
I have just been visiting some of my favourite CAM4 models and friends!
2. Tell me something about yourself
I am a Greek guy working as a freelancer web designer.
I am an easy going and extremely social guy who likes making new friends and being around good company!
I love making my friends laugh smile and have a good time in general! Some call me the life and soul of the party 😛
3. How did you discover Cam4?
I discovered CAM4 three years ago while listening to some guys talking about it in a local chatroom.
I am always curious about new things so I searched for it and after a few minutes Tarasfo was born.
Then I began my exploration in the huge world of CAM4. Now three years and some days after that first day I still bless those guys
that talked about CAM4 in that chatroom! I have met many awesome people here I have made a few awesome friends and lived some moments that I will always remember!
4. What was the funniest moment you’ve had on CAM4?
I cannot really pick one as my funniest moment because there are so many. One just has to join CAM4 and start chatting in the rooms to understand what I mean
5. Any embarrassing moments you would like to share with us?
My most embarrassing moment was probably one of my funniest too!
I remember an evening when I was on broadcast a guy who was unknown to me came in to my room and after watching my face for something like ten minutes he sent me a pm saying “You look like a drunk monk dude!” and he left without another word! Lol
6. What do you like about Cam4? And dislike?
What I really like about CAM4 is that sense of community!
I really love being part of that awesome #camily!!! What I really dislike are those minor problems that still exist with certain features of the site such as friends not showing in friendlists and the translator. If I put it on in English and someone says “hi tara” I read “hi country”! I mean come on I am not that fat to be called a country! 😛
7. How did you decide to become a moderator?
I decided to become a moderator after visiting a CAM4 model and fellow moderator EvaGreek. I mean ok I always knew how demanding and tiring for the models some viewers can become but since I started talking with Eva more I started feeling the urge and need to help her with this problem and let her focus more on her show. From the first minute that she modded me I knew this was for me.
And from then on, I try to become better in helping the models that trust me in being their moderator At this point I would like to give a special thanks to my friends and fellow moderators: andyhh973,hellosquirty,Cuz__Red,deannyy and __hennessy__ for all their help and advice!
8. Describe your work as a moderator? How do you support your performers?
My work as a moderator…Hmmm…
First of all I try to keep a good climate in the chat free of insults and easy for everyone tipper or not to join and follow. I try to maintain a positive atmosphere so both the performer and us viewers and mods are able to have a pleasant time and enjoy the show. I try to be fair with everyone but I can become strict within seconds if needed. Insulting and negative comments rude words and promotion of other sites or performers get out of the rooms that I moderate once and for all.
Secondly I try to communicate with the performer I moderate as much as possible to get to know each other and know his/her wants from me as his/her moderator.
Furthermore, I try to promote my performers on social media like Twitter as much as possible.
And lastly,as a bonus, I try to design a custom bio for my performers if they want.
9. Any advices for performers, why they should team up with a moderator?
My advice to performers is to team up with a moderator because it will help them focus on their show more.
But performers need to be careful to choose someone they trust to be their moderator.
They should also avoid making their best tippers moderators because this might have negative effects on the room.
10. Where can people find you? ( Twitter/Facebook)
People can find and follow me on twitter @tarasfocam4 for more advice and any question they may have
Have an awesome day!
