I guess that was predictable. She's one of the few who could make a decent fist of this OF thing.

I assume you won't be retiring from the forums as well?

I admire your optimism but there is no evidence that S66 are in any way business savvy (witness the US balls up, the magazine, and the slow reaction to the changing way in which user access their porn from TV to online).

They can however probably follow a revenue graph and I feel this is likely a knee jerk reaction to projections which are pretty horrible and in terminal decline. This move is a sticking plaster to protect their revenue streams, they've now got to figure out how to grow the business. I'm personally not sure they have a scooby do on how to do that

I knew Becky would be one, you don’t hammer Onlyfans like she is pretty much the same as Lucy has been and not leave.

yeah i thought that was coming after no cam's for the last few shifts.
and sorta explains why she was logged on to the site last shift but her stream had no data. chances are s66 just disconnected the feed and it was left as dead air on the site.

and looking on her OF i see a dont share or i close up shop...
well she may aswell start pulling the blinds now.... coz its probs already out there in full..

I take your point, however, all businesses tend to make mistakes - particularly so when trying to grow. They’ve lasted quite a long time now and outlasted a fair few competitors.

They’ve clearly lost some of their “bankers” in terms of well established girls bringing their regular callers in. I am hopeful they will see the need to adapt what they do, and find some new girls to freshen the roster up a bit.

True indeed but S66 are not obviously trying to grow, only survive; there is no big idea here. But to use the analogy of the likes of Debenhams and House of Fraser, these are big firms (as you would perhaps describe S66 in babeshow terms) who have been comfortably coining it in for years and the change to internet based shopping has rocketed past them. All they are doing is killing cost base by cutting stores and trying to haggle rents down.

That's really what I see S66 doing here. As you say a fresher (cheaper) roster may help but they need to look at something new (advertising on web stream content, hook up with MFC/Chatterbate, etc). Just don't see it happening though.

Its Monday, and frankly I'm at my most pessimistic

Anyone else feeling nostalgic and a bit old now Becky is leaving? In the early days of watching elite tv I remember her and Rachael doing shows. Ah, youth.
To be fair the whole thing isn't what it used to be, when I first started watching it with Mica and Caty and Sophia etc it felt more like let's just film these girls and see what we can get away with, like everyone was having fun. Now it's just numb and cynical money grabbing and ruined by perv cam and the same boring too-old-to-still-be-doing-it night show girls. (try calling jennifer jade when she's shaking her phone and not talking to anyone - she has callers waiting she just can't be arsed to start the next one yet.) OnlyFans is boring, just a few pointless selfies on the majority of girls pages which I can't be arsed to pay for. The studio66 website videos are too short and jumpy and pointlessly overstyled to actually wank over and I haven't watched a good night show in ages, even Clara the other night had fort knox opaque tights on everything. They're not making money because they're producing good content any more, they're making money because they're taking advantage of people. Hence all this panic about onlyfans.

So RIP elite tv 2009 - 20012(ish, that's about when it died by my reckoning.)
Bless you all, Thank you for all the wanks. You were pretty great for a bit there, kid.

Also, if I may say, random addition, in those years it seemed it hadn't occurred to any of these girls to ruin their lips with unnecessary surgery that makes them look clown faced and absurd. Now pretty much EVERY one of them, so many naturally pretty faced all ruined, so many unnecessary boob jobs.

I'm going on a nostalgia hunt to see what old videos are still up, then I'm out. Passing interest has finally expired into no interest other than 'I wonder if it will ever be good again'. Unless they get a raft of new girls who want to make out on tv half the night, (god, those mica caty and dionne shows) then no, it's gone. We must accept it people.

Can I also add a second thanks (not sure if here is the place for it) a pretty large chunk of the enjoyment was people capping and commenting, I didn't partake much in the forums but your commenting and debating always amused me and the huge amount of caps and videos meant you rarely missed anything. This forum has been better than only fans could ever be and y'all don't charge.
Bless you guys, cheers, so long.

well its saying becky is back stage but her cam has no output.
it will stall take your money so be careful.

The money is there to be earned the tv appearances would have helped but it’s not a requirement now
Girls are earning £200-300k a year without ever doing a photoshoot or even appearing on a tv channel

The girls who could possibly be earning from OnlyFans are the ones who are using it as part of their buisness plan;not the only source of income.

Some of the girls might appear on VN when it starts,2nd November is the launch date
