Worst site ever. I was banned from the site because the owner said,- I was immoral. Meanwhile, if you are a female using this site, he might stalk you like he did to poor Chrissy. I had my room messed with by the Administrators for no reason--other than they were trolling me. Yes, the site admins troll the users. I have used cam sites since 1992 and without a doubt, this is the worst. BoBB
The Vaughns promise to upgrade their site and bring out features and don't bring out nothing. They are conning people to pay for a VIP and don't bring out no features. The Vaughns are scammers. The owner Mark can't code nothing. All he says for 6 years, doing server code. The site hasn't been upgraded in 6 years. Every 3 months they promise features. All lies.
If you want to stream and watch cool streamers, go to twitch of youtube. The entertainment value is hundred times better.
What's funny is, Mark is trying to get Ice Poseidon to cast at his site and won't get the time of the day. His mom Misscruffy would ban his followers left and right. HIs is out of the Vaughn's league for streaming.
Another thing. Vaughnlive is full of illegal DMCA piracy.
They said I was banned for using their website too much. I was using the website to view the pirated content they provide. They wanted me to buy a Gold VIP account to be unbanned and continue using the site. Really annoying that they are watching the users and deciding who is using the site too much for free. Never had this happen before.
I seen racism death threats and more and the admins/staff said to screenshot it and report it, when I did several times I was banned permanently for "spamming the report system" while the people posting racist comments and death threats got no punishment. If you are a popular (has a lot of viewers) caster you get away with a lot and chatters get perma bans for very little.
Vaughn provides there worst customer service I have ever encountered. I had issued streaming a program and contacted vaughn... no phone number only email. Poor! After a stream of emails, the bottom line was the problem was on my end, not theres. Even though I can stream netflex, hulu etc, etc, without a problem. Bottom line, I closed my account today.
It seems that trolls are trying to discredit this source of information... I love this because the other news sources are so biased and create false narratives constantly!
They ban people based on religion and political affiliation. If u are muslim or democrat or hispanic you will be bullied out of the webtsite by admins/staff and moderators in the main channels like NEWZVIEWZ. If u want to visit the wbesite make sure u arent of any color or religion that conflicts with the NEWZVIEWZ mods, including, LMM, TRICKS, JULIAN, COPPER, ODIN <<< islamphobic racist and radical white supremacists someone should report them to the authorities for online bullying and spreading a site wide propaganda
The site owners are crooks to the core. They sell your email addresses, troll the broadcasters, start drama between people, and selectively enforce the rules that they make up as they go along. The male site owner sexually harasses the females, the female site owner goes from channel to channel to badger the broadcasters, the staff are rude, condescending and do not help at all. In short, this is a toxic waste dump on the internet. There are other, better and more professionally run sites. Don't waste your energy on this one.
This site is a decent site to cast or watch casters (when it works). That is the ONE good quality, as the video stream and chat is decent.
The bad is, the owners have zero business sense and have made the site into a steaming cesspool of bigotry, hatred, and sexism to name a few. They constantly allow casters to break their own TOS and have even themselves gone into caster's rooms to break their own TOS themselves, as owners. Yes I am talking about Mark Vaughn and Lynn Vaughn.
The site is a breeding ground for mentally unstable people, which the owners seem to encourage, who constantly show nudity, play porn, do drugs on cam, display weapons, make racist comments against minorities, etc. They seem to think this type of behavior brings in the business, therefore they encourage it, and never react when reports are made against the offending parties. I really wonder how these people (owners of Vaughnlive) sleep at night. It truly is disgusting.
This is the worst cam site ever---all they do is steal copy written material and replay it. Unless you are looking to watch really bad video DJ's--who play copy written material. And then fall asleep on camera. I even heard the owner stalks females that come onto the site, Just ask caster-- 2 Blonds.
At vaugnlive u r not aloud to hav an opion that differs from the staff,,, if u do they ban u... they act like nazi's and have favorites that can do anything they want and they refuse to block trolls so therefore woman should never cast there they have lost so many woman casters from their lack of control
It works diferently at work than at home and my connections are great both places. They give you a black screen with all servers busy like they are jammed but manage to get commercials through and the site kool chat room keeps working. I get that they want you to join for 15 or more a month but all I watch is fox news after cutting the cable. I can get a package from cable added to my internet connection which would be about 25 dollars and of course with a remote without a computer. It would give me a free box so this is good for someone who doesnt have a cable connection like a college student using the campus internet but if you have comcast internet and no service it doesnt pay to get if for Fox only. It has stations playing other show repeats constantly which is kool but to use it for free ng and the other stations dont quite peak my interest the same so there should be more to pay for it. My opinion.
Poor frame rate, glitchy, lots of system crashing ads, they treat casters and viewers like $#*!. This site is one of the worst of the web.
Fox news is what I watch here and no problems at all. I just tap the small arrow on the right of the picture and I don't have to keep up with the chatting idiots.
This is one website you all have to avoid at all costs I was trying to defend someone on there that was attacked by staff and one of there staff put me out there saying I was blackmailing and harassing her. I have did nothing you did It to yourself maybe you shouldn't do what you do and It wouldn't get posted elsewhere by someone that wasn't even me. They think they are a business well I dare them to try what they do on Twitch you wouldn't last a day! They have no idea what the word staff means when It's a business If you are a real one act like.
Mark and Scruffy allow hate, bigotry and racism in the chats and do nothing about it. For sure they ghost channels and don't ban these people or enforce the broadcasters not to allow it. And like the other comments say, they play favorites and there are double standards. The owners are a joke.
And they charge you alot for VIP. Not professional. It's a rip off and a scam.
Yes. You heard it. They allow broadcasters to run the site. They can't even be professional and run the site themselves. Mark is too busy playing video games and wrecking his car, while his wife/mother is too busy making cookies and ice creme for Mark to get fat on and going to the doctor. They allow broadcasters like gamergirl and hardwood to talk about other people's babies and make decisions to ban other casters. They even go to the extent as calling them dead babies. Mark and Scruffy do nothing. But they ban others for talking about children. Mark logs into broadcasters channels without permission and takes over. There is too much hate on Vaughn and the Vaughns are terrible people.
Here I am trying to save money by NOT buying cable tv. So I use live streaming to watch Fox News and Vaughn is one of several. Most of the time when I use the site it usually comes up with many annoying ads and then the message that "video servers are at capacity". This is total bull$#*!. They only want you to refresh the page which gives you more of the obnoxious ads. Obviously, it is a kind of bait and switch technique to generate more of the "click on" income from their advertisers. Total BS!
The owners invade your channel. They take it over without you permission. You have no privacy or rights on your channel. Mark Vaughn and Scruffy goes around playing favorites, spies on people and they have double standards. Mark acts like a 10 year kid. The site is totally un-professional. They read private IM messages between people. They allow certain broadcasters to break the rules and ban others for the same thing. They mess around with the quality of the channels so they make you pay for an expensive VIP subscription which offers basically nothing. Mark promises so many updates and features but it's never done. The servers are constantly going down or having issues. Both Mark and Missscruffy will sit in certain channels playing favorites and allowing them to attack other broadcasters. When the other broadcasters attack back, they will get banned from the site. Vaughnlive is a scam. They allow illegal movies and television shows to be played in the "Misc" section.
Not 5 min after logging into Vaughnlive was I greeted with videos of men masturbating and other unspeakable acts. When I approached the site admins and complained I was yelled at and called a "troll" then banned from the site. Simply horrible.
Answer: Mark, stop letting your mom mess your head up. She's a paranoid hypochondriac and your dad is a bitter beta.
