If you’re one of those guys who prefers to think of your adult chat sessions as dates (as I sometimes do), then I’ve got just the site you’re looking for: LiveWebDate. The concept’s pretty straightforward, and you’ve got not one but two basic options. You can either check the site for a girl who’s immediately available and ask her out, or you can book a date in advance. If she agrees to your request, off you go. Sounds a lot like real life, doesn’t it? In my book, that’s a selling point, but as with any date, don’t go in thinking you’re going to get any poonani for free. No, indeed. But I’ll elaborate more on that a little later.
Just for the record, here’s what LiveWebUpdate looks like when you sign on.
I for one like the layout — simple black background, cool colors, and simple pics to click on. The site’s more or less static, though, because there’s are a limited number of performers to play with, so they just list them all alphabetically, whether they’re online or not. As you might expect, a few are guys, I guess so that the occasional girl or gay guy looking for a date has some options to choose from. The site, though, is limited in its extent. All the performers seem to be either white or Hispanic, though one or two of the ladies might be of Asian extraction.
Furthermore, I counted only about 94 performers in all, including two couples, and you know what that means: limited coverage. That’s better than your options at a site like LiveSexyDolls (N=45 performers), but it’s not really that much better. In fact, I never did encounter anyone to experiment with while I was online. I would have liked to, because they claim to have some pretty extensive free chat — up to an hour on the bronze membership level, which is also free. Boy, I love that word. Sure, the chat’s group chat, but it’s free.
Imagine my dismay when I discovered that there are never any performers available for free chat. Imagine how distraught I was when I was denied the pure Zen of freeness. Where were all the girls? Where? Well, that wasn’t all the free that was supposed to be available, so I looked around for more. Supposedly you can take peeks at the various rooms these studio girls (and guys, don’t forget them) occupy, but the video feeds appear to be shut down, so no luck there.
Well them, let’s talk a bit about pricing, shall we? As I mentioned before, the date rate — to coin a phrase — is a little high: 4.50 LiveWebDate credits per minute. I just about blew a gasket when I discovered that a credit is worth a dollar. So, $4.50 a minute? I could buy a gallon of gas in England for that price. The date would have to be damned good for me to spend that kind of money, even if I weren’t such a tightwad. But I can’t tell, can I, since nobody is ever online. It occurs to me that I’ve been making that lament a lot lately; what happened to all the big sites where people actually come to work? Have I already reviewed them all, or what? By now you may be saying, “But Chris, you big idiot, you can always book a girl to meet you at a specific time!” Well, yeah, that might work if they were ever available. For every girl I checked, the stinkin’ date calendar was blank. Is the entire site on vacation? If so, they could have mentioned it somewhere.
But that’s by the by. Let’s assume that sometime in the future the site is actually going to be active and the girls will be eagerly awaiting for us to dive right in. Your options are limited with the standard free Bronze membership, but you’ve got the option of going Silver, Gold or Platinum at 30, 40, or 60 credits per month. So if you decide to hit the Platinum mark, you can go on one date for a little over 13 minutes — whereupon, presumably, you’ll be dropped like a hot potato if you don’t speedily purchase more credits. Hell, 13 minutes is barely enough time for foreplay. But hey, you also get 2, 4, and 10 hours, respectively, of access to Special Events, so maybe that makes up for it a little.
Whatever you choose, you can pile on the credits by using your Visa or MasterCard through CCBill (what a surprise), Epassporte, Epoch Paycom, and two odd services called PlainVanilla and Charge2000. You can also pay with an online check through Charge2000. Now, would someone tell marketers that Y2K has come and gone and that the number 2000 no longer has any mystical significance when appended to company and product names?
I’m going to be blunt here and tell you that you shouldn’t even bother with LiveWebDate, at least for a it exist right now. It’s just not worth the effort. I’m not sure what’s going on here — whether the site’s still too young to have a roster and administration that are worth a damn, or if it’s just dying — but it’s definitely moribund. It’s an interesting site (heck, they even have their own pet dog that they include pictures of ), and it would be great if it actually worked. If you want to give ‘em the benefit of the doubt, check back in a few months to see what’s up, because if those free features worked, they’d be cool indeed. I know I will, so wish me luck.
