When camming, you'll see a lot of acronyms and terms you might not be aware of initially either in your own room, in other model's rooms, or from members asking if you offer them.  Here's a dictionary of terms you may come across.

'''Yellow wall:''' Usually refers to a constant stream of tips, one directly after the other, normally without any chat in between. This got its name from MyFreeCams members/models due to the yellow highlight around tips in a cam girl's room.

'''Zero/Twenty or 0/20:''' Specifically on MyFreeCams, refers to having 0 tokens and 20 reward points, which means the member has only purchased tokens ONCE to go premium. Depending on how long they've been a member, it's thought that they are unlikely to buy tokens again and are frequently the most demanding/vocal in chat with no intention to tip.
