I'd say my opinions line up most closely with Surfn, grandmascrotum, Mr Blue, mist, and others who think there may be a right time for the performer(s) to break that fourth wall but mostly it ruins the suspension of disbelief that I think is very important.
In most cases, if it isn't a POV with well-done, maintained eye contact throughout, then having her look at the camera usually ruins the scene for me and I'm not interested in what happens with that couple or group any longer. I prefer it when you could believe that she is so into what's she doing and who she's doing it with that she doesn't even know there's a camera in the room.
I do think eye contact on the join form can help. The caveat is that you have to make sure the 'mood' set by your join form models agrees with the mood your tour sets. And if you can control the look of your actual signup page to make that match too, all the better.
