In regard to Cody Tompson, we are reviewing what happened and going over what action needs to take place - no final decision has been made yet. For legal reasons, and being a US company we have to be even stricter, we are very diligent in making sure everything is in order and compliant.

Some models are on FIFTH account .
Some changed studios - some were low performance , bottom 25% that make new accounts to return over and over and over .
I have viewed @ 15 models on 2nd or higher account this last week alone .
Also 3 models using a past model's account simply to get models online without the paper work from 2 studios . When ask the model why their Bio has a date years ago and they don't look like the pictures , they tell the truth about it is not them .
1 model could have had an age lower than 18 .
New model tag seems a suggestion with little truth in advertisement to me . About 25% do not fit Flirt4Free's own criteria stated here Quote

In most cases only one account is active at any one time. Cody Tom(p)son had two accounts simultaneously

Some on female side have had 2 accounts and online minutes apart in a different name .
I think posting name here made the model disappear faster is all
Having more than 1 name / 1 account is done here more often than stated .
Overall pretty low in percentage , but SOME models seem to over use new accounts .
Most of them simply seem to ignore Flirt and even never type to anyone on Flirt as they do their "important pages" . Some should really be filtered out after a 3rd account for low performance in my opinion Quote

In Cody's case, he changed studio and was not allowed to take "Cody Tomson" with him; his new studio went with "Cody Tompson". If a performer's name is the property of the studio, then it makes sense that Cody would need to generate a new account once he left his old studio. That the old one remained active while the new one started up may have been an oversight on the old studio's part as well as an early error on the new studio's part by not making sure the old account had been closed...or something like that.

That certainly should not be the case as we have many filters in place to prevent that from happening. If you would like to email the list of models you've come across it would be greatly appreciated so we can take a look and verify everything is in order and send some goodwill your way for your assistance.

I suspect my list is bigger than LickaU's. I have a list of hundreds of models who have changed their names, some of them several times, however most (but not all) are no longer current. I won't be emailing you my list because I wouldn't want to get the models and studios in trouble with VS. Look what happened to Cody Tom(p)son. Quote
I miss him Quote
I miss him
Cody's situation was unusual, but he should be back shortly.

It isn't, zyx.
That was the point I clarified with VS in the Performer Names topic which you have seen ...
I saw that, and now I know it...you know it...VS knows it...but do the models and the studios know it? From what I was told, the studio would not let him use the name at the new studio.
Unless...there was a miscommunication or misunderstanding, and the whole thing was part of a mandatory no-compete period to help avoid confusion with accounting? Quote
