So recently the frontpage (which is set to relevance like always) has seen a dramatic change on who comes up first on my list (after my favs)
And I think its amazing that some of these models that are normally further down the page are now at the top, but I don't get the system at all! There are models who I see on twitter earning 10k tips (and therefore some mega boost points) but they are 3/4 of the way down the page grouped with the other "more popular" models, and then you get 1 or 2 popular models at the top of the page!
Is it currently worth it to boost anyone, as I can't see how that is helping on this new front page order!? At first I thought F4F had reset the powerboost of everyone, but its been over a week now and I'm not sure thats what has happened?!
Like I said, I think is great that there is a shake up and that there are different models at the top, and hoping that it is helping them see new and different customers, but I would just like someone to explain how this new order works if possible?
Thanks for your time, stay safe everyone!!! Hopefully its not come off as a rant, because it really isn't! would just like a little clarity please!! Quote

If you leave it to the default (All Models), I believe they are more-or-less listed in order of Power Score. But that calculation has changed dramatically in the past month, and often makes no sense to me. (I had a model who was out for almost a week, and his score went UP with no credits or boosting.) I gave up trying to figure it out, and agree it often seems to make no sense. Quote
You'll know exactly where to find whoever you are looking for at anytime regardless of however they are ranked.
When it comes to boosting... eh, unless I have some sort of friendly history with the model and they specifically ask me for it, I'll hold on to the points until the end of the year to redeem* for one of the "bigger" promo code to buy credits.

The problem with this is the models at the tail end of the alphabet will suffer from low traffic because people will scroll down only so far and pick the first hot bio pic they see.
Also studio will start getting creative with stupid names to get their model on the first page. Example:. AAAleXXX ( neural gender name 👍)
