I don't think that's a security issue. That's just a contingency to manage. But that's one that goes beyond Barcelona (for example, to make it easier to find Tibor, he'd have to write the address on a white board in front of a camera).

That RLC encourages things is very highly likely but seems still up to the participants in the end. If they don't I doubt that it's for the reason you mention. More likely that they are not into it. It certainly doesn't feel like they are desperate, otherwise they would just pickup random desperate girls from the street. It seems to me that it's more working on a "referral" basis so that they find people that won't be a too big surprise and will fit more quickly.

As for your last phrase, I might be an idiot but I don't share your views. I still believe that the original intent was not to be a sex cam show, but really what @TfiDeano described. The fact they try to nudge the participant in some form of show is probably because that sex content is what is making them sell subscriptions. Besides, aside from Barcelona, the "shows" are pretty seldom and more in line with the participants sexuality (with the exception of Dasha, Sasha, Masha).

But then , I'm having a hard time figuring out who would pay that much money for the sexual content on RLC when better content is available for free. In then end whatever rocks whoever's boat.

And speaking of contingency, when did they "patch" the balcony glass in the guest room (it's now opaque) ? 

You are having an interesting discussion here.

But I would like to expand on your thoughts to include the point that was important to me. I only found the sexual events interesting at the beginning.

The longer I was involved, and for me it was only a few months, I felt that many of the tenants were just putting on a show.

I was always interested in the conversations, for example to find out where the tenants go when they leave the house. That is the only way to get an insight into the lives of the tenants.

If the tenants only write or read text messages in bed, what is interesting for the viewer?

If the tenants then make all conversation inaudible to the viewer by playing loud music or retreat to areas where there are no cameras or microphones, the whole thing becomes a farce for me.

And in this respect I have always had expectations of the tenants or RLC. What else would you pay so much money for?

Enlarged breasts do not necessarily contribute to physical health, but rather cause problems in the back, for example. When I think of Tessa, I remember that she often went without panties, but rarely without a holder for her breasts.

Smaller breasts can still provide pleasure....

While I'm about to write comments about the tenants of B1, I can't get past the look on Octavia's face. To me it looks like she has another big problem inside her. It seems like something has gone terribly wrong. But of course these are just speculations.

I couldn't stand those ridiculous blown up lips, glad she's gone.

When women pursue a supposed ideal of beauty, it is probably less ridiculous than regrettable. I, too, find changing the lips of many people neither nice nor necessary, but perhaps such comments should be left alone because such a condescending remark could hurt these people. Because some tenants also read the comments in this forum. Maybe Tessa herself didn't like what the person who did this did to her. I'm also surprised if you don't denounce her undoubtedly enlarged breasts. I always wonder for whom women endure such torment.

I know i am late to the party, but Octavia has certainly been horny this last week, and it is very enjoyable to watch! 😍

I doubt she's really that horny. She finds her sexual satisfaction outside the house again and is away for many hours, even overnight. I think she just wants to give her community some compensation. I don't think she needs the extra sexual release. However, I don't know if she explained her thoughts and actions in any of her speeches.

You don't have any complaints about her breasts?

i did hear her talking to herself about a couple of guys she had sex with who had really big dicks and how it hurt her and how it hurt to pee after and going to emerg to get some help, and why can't she find a guy with a regular size penis ( any takers? ). one guy sent her a picture of himself with a huge dick and she wasn't interested.

If the reason for her nightly talk was really sex with a new man and the resulting physical problems, then we have to ask Octavia whether the longing for hard sex fits with her sensitiv personality. I would advise her to try loving sex, perhaps with a man for a longer and more intense relationship.

Maybe her urge for constant one-night stands isn't so healthy for her, neither for her pussy nor for her mental health.

Is he Spanish, do you know that ?

I assume I can help you there. If it's about some twisted thoughts, especially about religion, she will have had the conversation with her boyfriend from Dubai. If I remember correctly, he is also the only friend who is currently having voice messages with her.

People are who they are and do what they do based on their genetic makeup and the conditioning they have received from many sources throughout their life. There is no right or wrong until somebody makes a judgement based on their own concept (just thoughts) of how things ought to be instead of accepting that life unfolds exactly as it should and has been doing for millions of years according to Cosmic Law. Yes, society makes rules and as a result there are consequences to actions that go against what society deems acceptable so it is wise to follow guidelines but it is helpful to have compassion for what happens rather than trying to place blame somewhere because whatever happens could not have been otherwise.

RLC is what it is. Take it or leave it, it's fine. Watch it or cancel, no problem, but to say it should be different than what it is makes no sense. It is the private lives of other people who are put into a very artificial environment with special rules and what we see is an attempt to live life while having to deal with all that comes with these unusual circumstances.

I have interacted with RLC a few times over the years but have never been as interested as I am now after having “met” Octavia. I continue to find her very unique, interesting and refreshing because she is as open and honest as anyone I have seen on the site. Yes, she does play with things within the “rules” and her behavior evolves and changes the longer she lives in this environment but it's all OK. Lets face it…this situation is a temporary stop in the lives of most of the people in these houses. I think in Octavia's case she has experienced a lot of new and exciting things, grown as a person, and will soon “outgrow” RLC and move on. I will miss her.

In this respect, I still agree with you completely.
Octavia is a special person and she has persuaded me to extend my subscription twice to see how everything develops. But perhaps it is precisely her nature that is the reason for my feelings.

Of course, the problem lies with me. I have simply spent too much time with Octavia, her actions, thoughts and feelings and that is why I react so emotionally. The fact that my assumptions are based only on my thoughts is of course due to the requirements of this format, based on the wrong language - I still can't speak Russian - and the camera-free rooms. I can only free myself from these feelings if I give up intensive observation of Octavia. But then I can no longer make any contributions to this topic here in the forum.

The fact that I am ending my membership of RLC affects Octavia less than the overall impression of this format. Moreover, here in Sweden, spring is slowly replacing winter and then I will spend less time in front of the screen and do my activities outside.

I should also note that our conversations really pleased me. Our thoughts may not be that different.

i'm not picking on you but unless you just did it, it seems like you've been following her every move by some of your comments.

You're right there too. There was a time when Octavia suffered a lot and it was difficult not to be able to help her. During these times I pursued her intensively.

5 minutes ago, FrankZabba said:

personally i feel there should have never been an emotional attachment to octavia.  i think you will find it rather easy to give up watching her.

the phrase " the private life of other people" is total bullshit!  rlc is a scam and it always has been. 

You're right. I have already achieved that.

I feel the need to draw a conclusion for myself.
I was curious how seriously the slogan “other people’s private lives” should be taken.
Of course, there are couples, such as "Venera and Lion", who lead a normal life, including work outside the home.
However, this slogan is a lot of nonsense for singles or couples on vacation.
When the tenants aren't preparing food and then spending time in the kitchen, all I see here are girls who write and receive text messages all day and mostly spend it in bed.
I wonder what a viewer gets out of watching someone do this activity.

Another example of absolutely pointless watching was a party like the one last weekend.
The music was once again very loud, so that you could see that some people were talking,
but you have absolutely no chance of understanding anything about it, even if the conversations were perhaps even conducted in English.
Other viewers report clever lighting manipulation on the part of the tenants, so that nothing can be seen in other situations.
I wonder how this all fits with the slogan. For me the answer is clear, not at all.

Over the three months that I've been pursuing this project, Oktavia has grown on me.
I found her way of talking to the walls to be very positive. I had the impression that an honest person here can handle the cameras and also thinks about those who are watching.
I can only rate her wish to bring a partner into the house as positive for us as viewers and thank Oktavia for this real participation in her private life.

However, what is allowed in this private life has changed for some time. Since two new men came into Octavia's life, she has shown different behavior. She no longer receives or writes voice messages in public spaces.
She writes and receives a barrage of text messages throughout the day, but the question remains from above.
In these last few days she goes to the downstairs toilet for every occasion, which I find unnecessary anyway, but I have come to the opinion that she receives and writes these voice messages there in the camera-free room, so that she can take part in her private lives are deliberately excluded here.
She still reveals a part of her private life in her speeches, but I see this as a very chosen part of her. I'm annoyed by this hiding behavior.

Since I don't want to get angry and since I can't change Octavia's behavior, of course she has the right to do so,
there are two decisions for me: firstly, I will not convert my membership to RLC into a long-term one, but rather end it, as it really isn't worth spending so much money, secondly,

I will end my contributions here to Octavia, as I am her I'm not going to follow up anymore. I need to break my emotional attachment as I don't want to get angry.

I hope I haven't bored the members of this forum with my thoughts. The motto for everyone is: everyone can do what they want, that applies to the tenants as well as to the viewers and readers of this forum.

Yes…it will be interesting to see what happens.

It is clear from how she got ready to go that she is fully prepared to ignore all the red flags she brought up in her Sunday conversation. We shall see if she perceives him as a “changed man” or if the flags re-appear. With Octavia, once the adrenaline starts running the common sense seems to fade to the background. Where will it take her this time?

There is no doubt about one thing. There will be more lessons to be learned here.

Unfortunately, I think you're right.

This morning Octavia seems thoughtful and indecisive.

Is she unsure whether or how the meeting will take place?

As always, we'll see when she comes back tonight, if she comes at all.

Let's see what the universe is up to...

Every now and then she talks to the walls but they don't seem to answer back.  

Oh, you're wrong, the walls answer Octa, even about this forum....

We have discussed elsewhere here what we can expect from tenants.

It's Octavia again, who is simply wonderful in her natural nudity.

Octavia delivered another report last night about what happened yesterday and what will happen this week.

Yesterday she met another man, as she says from her recent past, who wanted to spend time with her. She has a lot of plans this week, but would like to meet him on Wednesday and Thursday.

In this context, it seems to me to be addressed to us: I hope you won't be mad.

It's amazing what kind of connection there can be between a tenant and us viewers, even though there never could have been a direct conversation and hasn't will come. Feelings have developed on our side that are expressed in supporting her in her difficult times. But it's to be expected that she doesn't feel pressured, but rather thinks about how we feel when she's not there, but rather shows the mutual connection, or so I would like to believe.

She will go her way, even if it hurts again.
But she can only go her own way, the longing is too great.

Where did I say that I'm only interested in sex? Where does the idea that everything must somehow be exclusive come from?

Of course, for me, RLC is not just about watching sex. But it would lose its value for me as a voyeur if there was no sex to see. It's about looking into other people's private lives, which also includes sex. Not just the sex, not just everything without sex.

I agree again, I didn't mean you directly, but everyone who wants to see sex life.

Stay calm, we actually mean the same thing.

I've known RLC for some time now, and all that time there was sex to be seen. Maybe not as much as today, but not at all. Ultimately, without sex, RLC would be finished.

I agree: without sex, RLC would be at an end, but a voyeur is also interested in other things.

If you're only interested in sex, there are better sites.

Please, Read through the definition of porn at least once, before you write something like that.  High image quality is not a condition for pornography. The fact that some residents don't really participate in the project doesn't make the value that the other residents provide any less.

RLC is porn, but, in giving a view into the private life (of most  or at least part of the residents), also more than that. 

Ok, I correct myself.

RLC is not always a porn site, but pornographic content is shown, even if it is not of particularly high quality.

If it's a porn site then why do 'many' people here spend time following the lives of these people and following stories and events. If you want a quick wank then go to Pornhub which is clearly where you should be looking, RLC is not a porn site...fact, and end of. I don't even know why this is being discussed because you have your brainwashed beliefs and let's say I have mine. You are worth less to me that the pile of dog shit I step in on the floor. If you are so concerned about spending $45 a month every month then save it and get a real bitch in to fuck instead of criticising people on here what you believe in. Does it honestly really matter what it is apart from being a voyeur site, no...so take your warped and brainwashed arse elsewhere.   

I recommend refraining from insults, otherwise we'll be back to hatred.

RLC is not a porn site, the sex is too bad and the camera settings are bad too, but it is also not a site for voyeurs, as the behavior of the tenants prevents this.

Thank you (and the others who does it) for this nice recap ! 

I would like to add that Octavia previously described that there could be a new man in her life. She has spent half the day with him and is hopeful again, but she doesn't want to repeat the mistakes she made with Carlos, so she wants to take things slowly.
