📹 Video Streaming — Now Free for All Users!
Streaming has a number of fantastic uses and is a welcome new addition to FF chat. Whether you simply wish to know someone better, host live eating sessions, or simply verify that the person you're chatting with is who they say they are. We're excited to expand this feature so that all users are now free to enjoy it.
Key Things to Know
• Works on both desktop and mobile
• Only one person can stream at a time per private chat
• Only one active stream per user — stop your current stream before starting another
• 30 minute time limit per session — you can restart immediately after
• Do not use a VPN and ensure your browser has permission to access your camera and microphone
For the Streamer
Starting Your Stream
• In private chat, locate the video recorder icon 🎥 next to your username in the chat side panel and click it
• A preview window will open so you can check your video and audio settings
• Press GO LIVE to start broadcasting. A "LIVE" indicator will appear in the top left of your video
• Your chat partner will see a view buttoneye icon 👁️ appear next to your name. When they click it, they can view your stream, the view button (eye icon 👁️ will appear as soon as you open the stream in preview mode and until you GO LIVE a place holder image will show until you broadcast your stream.
📱 Mobile Users: The side menu is collapsed by default — tap the double chevrons ( » ) to expand it and find the streaming icon.
While live you can:
• 🎥 Turn off your webcam to use audio only
• 🔇 Mute your audio or ⏸️ Pause to use video only
• ⏹️ Press STOP to end your stream at any time
To close the stream window, click the streaming icon (now showing with a strikethrough) next to your username in the chat side panel. This returns you to standard text chat.
⏱️ Time Limit: Sessions last a maximum of 30 minutes. A warning appears 5 minutes before the session ends. You can restart a new stream immediately after — this limit simply prevents streams from being accidentally left running.
For the Viewer
Viewing & Controls
• When someone starts a stream, an eye icon 👁️ will appear next to their username in the chat
side panel. This means that you will not be shown the stream automatically.
• Click the eye icon to watch — it is entirely your choice whether to view the stream or not
• If the eye icon disappears, the streamer has ended their session
• Before a streamer goes live, or if they pause, a placeholder image will display
As a viewer you can 🔇 mute, ⏸️ pause, or close the stream at any time. To close, click the eye icon (with strikethrough) in the right-hand panel to return to text chat.

Hi LMNTrix,
Sorry to hear that you were scammed by a member of the site. I have reviewed the abuse report submitted from the new account you created, WilE. The user responsible has now been blocked and permanently banned from the site.
I have also removed the WilE account. We only allow one account per user, so if you need to report a user in the future and are unable to access their profile, it would be best to contact a moderator or the FF Team account directly with the relevant details.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Take care,

Thanks for reporting, we have had a couple of site updates recently so sounds like an unintentional bug. I will test the chat and report back to hiccupx to get this looked into asap.
Thanks,

Hi,
For some users the upload progress bar is currently failing to display correctly. However, the video is still uploading in the background, and uploads are continuing to work as expected.
We are aware of the issue and are currently investigating it. Although the upload progress percentage is not being displayed, the video should continue uploading in the background as normal.
If you are uploading a larger video file, the process may take some time to complete. Please leave the page or browser tab open and allow the upload to continue. Once the upload has finished, you will automatically be taken to the next step, where you can select a thumbnail and publish the content for others to view on the site.
Please let us know if you experience any further issues.
Thanks,

I am generous with my likes but after a recent update a like counts as a picture view. I was looking at a picture and clicked LIKE. The picture reloaded but gave me the dreaded subscription page instead.
It was not like this for a long time but now is. Similar with videos. If you like a video part way through it reloads and puts you at the beginning again.
Edddde:
Fantasy Feeder team should show who likes your picture and videos
You get a notification of who liked your content and viewed your profile. This is in the notifications section (click the bell icon at the top of the website page).
The bug that caused likes to be counted as picture views (by refreshing the page when the Like button was clicked) should now be fixed. However, please let us know if you continue to experience any issues with it.
Take care,

PinkFox:
I know I am necroposting an old thread but is there any reconsideration in furthering the block feature onto the forums UI? I know the previous mod stated that it will be tricky to implement and I don't want to put pressure onto the dev team.
On my old account I have encountered some very unkind people in the past (who still come on here) and I just don't want to see their profile pics/usernames and comments since it triggers bad memories as someone who struggles with PTSD.
Once again, I applaud the FF team for doing their best and sometimes we can't have everything in life. I just wish I could curb my viewing experience on the forums considering I mostly lurk on there in comparison to the chatrooms which I rarely use.
Hi, at the moment we are not planning to expand the block feature to the forums, it is not currently on our work list for this year. However, that’s not to say we won’t implement it in the future.
I will raise it again with Hiccupx for consideration, and I do appreciate that, as someone who mainly uses the forums, this feature would especially benefit you and improve your experience on the site.
Leave it with me,

Hiccupx:
Scammed twice on this site? Would love to hear how this came about.
Pizzathehutt:
I am just an idiot and fell for it again. Totally my fault. It just sucks this site doesn’t seem to have real people on it looking to connect with others. It’s either fake accounts or paid accounts and nobody really interested in anything but money.
I’m sorry to hear that you were scammed twice. However, there are real and genuine people on the site.
Unfortunately, you are more likely to be contacted by fake scammer female accounts because they try to contact as many people as possible before we notice and ban them.
Real users usually will not try to get you off the site straight away, and they will not ask you for money or for gifts immediately.
I would advise you to use the chat room and take your time getting to know people.

I’ve spoken with Hiccupx about this, and I believe we’ll be implementing an option for content owners to tag or mark content as AI generated.
In the pictures section AI content already has its own category. However, the stories section works slightly differently, so using a tag system would make more sense.
This will, of course, rely on uploaders being honest about their use of AI. However, having content clearly marked will allow readers to filter AI content either in or out, depending on their preferences.
