My response on this subject stem from what I thought was an unfair and rather harsh (and disappointing) criticism expressed by some towards Nichole. The idea of not having high expectations and not being disappointed is the one concept that has kept me a subscriber for so long. I do believe that, "It is what it is" and probably nothing said on these forums will change that and I like it that way. I did not remember until Harry49 mentioned it that Estelle was given the "honor status of guest" and exempt from participating in the project and that is OK. Conversely, once given a name you sort of become part of the project just by association, like it or not. One would think that an unwelcome guest would prefer to leave or at least realize that the free ride is over. Her continued presence there just bugs me, but I will still watch having said my words .... </:-) !

Please pardon the repetitive nature of this post. Most of this was previously posted in Estelle's fan page but since it wasn't complementary to Estelle I reconsidered and thought it more appropriate here. I am a fan of Nichole and I don't agree with some who think that the last girl standing (Estelle) in Barca 2 is a Saint and that Nicole is somehow responsible for the disturbance. For those just tuning in, there has been a little skirmish between Nichole and Estella and right now, it appears that Nichole has fled the apartment , perhaps giving the appearance that Estelle is the victor. I cannot endorse some observations made by others as to the cause or blame and think a different point of view is in order. Nichole has been an entertaining and active participant of the RLC concept since she first arrived in Barca1. She has shown sensitivity and compassion towards others (especially the would be lover that couldn't ..ah...preform) and a fun and active participant in both apartments,... mostly. This changed within the first week after Estelle joined Barca2. There was a noticeable change in the dynamic with both the other occupants and Nicole. First offense was that both seemed to shun the other two roommates and spent as much time as possible either out of the apartment or sequestered in their room. An inability or reluctance to participate in any group activity became the norm for these two roommates. As the days wore on it appeared that everyone in the apartment started to isolate themselves and the previously active and fun atmosphere at Barca2 just disappeared. It was obvious that Estelle had no intention of trying to please anyone and would dampen any attempts by Nichole to participate in anything fun, sociable or sensual. It is beyond my comprehension that someone would join an enterprise like RLC and be so unaware that her constant sedentary behavior in the same dingy cloths, day after day, incessantly smoking (vaping IS smoking) and glued to mobile devices is what she or her employer would consider a meaningful contribution to the project. One cannot help but wonder exactly why she was there? Estelle certainly didn't try to add much to the content and slowly became more and more of a wet towel smothering the flame. Her sedentary and self absorbed attitude was affecting to all the tenants but mostly her roommate. It doesn't matter to me whatever or whoever caused of the fight last night, my vote is to restoring the balance in this remove the completely unaware and return Nichole for her last few weeks.

This is not going the happy, "I'm such a Fan of wonderful Estelle" post that is encouraged by this forum. There has been an incident and I believe a different observation or point of view is in order. I don't agree with the consensus that the last girl standing is the Saint the Barca2. From the first week Estelle joined the apartment, there was a noticeable change in the dynamic with both the other occupants and Nicole. First offense was that both seemed to shun the other two roommates and spent as much time as possible either out of the apartment or sequestered in their room.

Welcome back Dayana! We all know it wasn't a very high bar to surpass but you have already made Sia's room more interesting than the former occupant managed the entire time she was there. In just a couple hours, you have already smiled more often than she managed in months. The fact that you have returned gives us hope that you will enjoy your stay in new surroundings much more than the last rotation.. It is so nice to see you again!

Wow, Who would have guessed that RLC would actually responded to the collective wish. I am going to commit and suggest that the loosing streak that has been this apartment is now over. Long live the New Queen!

Several months ago I gave V Villa a spin and was sorely disappointed. The content could have been good but technically, the site never worked. There were many problems but mostly the feed was never consistent and would time out, or worse, would constantly jump back to the beginning. A instant replay every 15 or 20 seconds. The archive was a good idea but it only worked a few days in the beginning. When I tried to contact their technical support, they responded a few days later and told me that the archive was a freebie and I had nothing to complain about if it didn't work. As far as the connection issues, they replied with what looked like a form letter that explaining how streaming works and implied it was my fault because I had connection issues. Very bogus. Also I believe that much of what you see posted in this forum is someone at VVilla blowing their own horn. I was certainly not ever able to get the quality that the same people that post here seem to enjoy. They might have overcome some of the tech issues but I have been burned once and will not give them another chance. If you expect anything like the very smooth RLC experience, you too are likely to be very disappointed....Buyer beware...Just my experience..

I like change, well.... I like change for the better, but it seems to me that the new Flow Player is a change in the wrong direction. I use Safari have noticed NO improvements since the change over from whatever server platform RLC was using before and Flowplayer seems intent on ruining my viewing experience. Is it my browser or is everyone experiencing much slower loading times, dropped connections (or maybe scheduled time outs to save bandwidth?) and the most annoying, redundant and totally unnecessary new feature that was just implemented, the overlay that automatically drops down the Apartments and Rooms Menus in the Single Wide Mode every 30 seconds. The SWMode is very useful if keeping an eye on the thumbnails and having to click them off twice a minute is a distraction I do not plan to tolerate. Even working well, the refresh rate now is about 6 to 8 seconds, way too slow to follow someone from room to room and at high demand times it can take as much as 20 seconds to change cams. Sometimes it just times out. It in not my ISP connection, I have checked it when experiencing problems, it is the RLC feed causing the annoyances. If this is any indication of the future "improvements" we can expect from the new owners/management, they will soon find me spending my money somewhere else.

Correction, (I hate auto spell) Please substitute "symbolic" with "symbiotic". Sorry, i'm a real dummy

One thing is for sure, rlc and rlcFan certainly have a symbolic relationship that benefits both. If reallifecamfan did not exist, rlc would just be too frustrating to continue watching. RlcFan is the place where one can express thoughts, wishes, expectations and frustrations. For me, it is the place to let off steam, interact with a broad section of both like minded people and others that really aren't. <g> Since the administration at rlc refuses to make any real effort to communicate with their members, the interaction this site encourages sorta acts like a pressure relief valve. Being able to observe the lives of so many different people is bound to provoke personal observations and emotions and this site fills the need to express those thoughts and share with others. I am sure that I would have dropped my rlc premium membership long ago if had not accidentally fallen in with this bunch of funny, irreverent, opinionated, amusing, entertaining and intriguing people. I thank those that contribute so much and balance the emptiness that rlc tends to be on occasion.

I am happy that I can trash this couple since this is not a fan page. I have to constantly check the time to see if I have a video stream because these people hardly ever move. Please do not be the next RLC tenants p l e a s e . . .

Forgive me, a little off topic but if D&D are rlc recruiters, as some speculate, I sure hope they are not seriously considering the couple that have housesitting their apt. Just my opinion..

I also hate to see this apartment departing so quickly but not at all surprised. There must be a long lead time between the tenants agreeing to join the project and them moving into their new homes. The two girls seemed to be on shaky ground from day one. If they had problems before coming online, it should have been obvious to them that the constant stress of exposure and living their lives under the microscope might contribute to their floundering relationship. The first day opened and showed both of them upset, the dark haired girl leaving for a while and then returning later to comfort her redhead roommate. A few days of strained affection and then it was obvious the couple had some problems. At first I thought they might be in a friends with benefits situation and that was way cool. While the dark haired girl seemed to be relatively upbeat and happy the redhead mostly just acted dour and moody. Too bad they never gave it a chance but this yet another RLC snafu that should have never been. By snafu I mean another apartment that started off with a whimper and ended with hardly a gasp. RIP

Rlc must be rethinking their Human Resources Strategies when it comes to filling this Apartment. What a disappointment it must be for them, every occupant that ever lived here has failed to meet any thing close to expectations. Some were never there and some stayed less than a month, others found it easier to hide from the cameras than be seen. It appears that the current couple is duplicating the behavior of all of the past tenants, or at least the worst traits. The current freeloaders should be gone or replaced soon and rlc should either give the apt to someone proven or, better yet, just pull the plug and close it down. They certainly don't need yet another liability and this apartment has a proven track record of being a source of discontent... RIP

RLC has shown several times recently that it makes big mistakes occasionally when it comes to tenant choices. They must have realized from the very beginning that this apt was going to be a flop. Much like Sara in the girls apartment, Lera was always absent. This apt should have been pulled the first week when she (Lera) only spent three nights there. I doubt that we will see Sara gone any time soon but I laude the fact that maybe this is a sign that RLC is getting tired of placing people in the apartments who really have no intention of actually living in them.

I wonder why Voyeur Tube CC is a closed topic? When I clicked on the link I was immediately exposed to some sort of Malware, stupid me, TWICE! That topic and site URL should be removed from The General Discussion page.
