I had that problem and live support was super rude to me but I messaged them on Twitter and they got everything back to normal quickly.

Are you saying that the ability to mute members with zero money was an issue but then after contacting someone on Twitter it was then reversed? Are you one of the people who can still mute them?

So they were lying about this issue being a glitch. I had a great day on there a few days ago and just when you think everything is going good the site pulls a stunt like this.

I won't be surprised if they limit how many users we banned since they were complaining about it a few weeks ago and that was regarding paid users.

They were complaining about models getting ban happy and those users were paid members so how do they think models will react to non paid members who act worse than a paid user with no intention of doing a show with any model


I rarely ban guys on cams (a matter of fact, I will end the broadcast for a few seconds and start it again to clean the room of those who are not interested in doing privates) but if they alter that feature, I am leaving for sure.

Yeah I Guess it is time to invest time in becoming more independent . I really didn't mind the cut cams.com was taking because I didn't have to bring my own traffic, but between this and the fact I'm always on edge because they don't cover chargebacks ,means I'm going to spend a *lot* more time promoting my skype shows now

At first I tried live support and that was useless but then I tweeted at them and they got it fixed in like maybe 20-30 minutes after I tweeted.

Free members still chatting?
8/2/2017
Hello models,

If you are still having free members chatting in your room and have it set to not have zero fund members chatting, please close your broadcaster and in your browser clear your cache and cookies and log back in, then hold down your shift button and refresh the page. It should work again.

We apologize for the inconvenience. If this does not work, please contact support and they can assist you with this.

Im just trying to understand the logic behind it... Cams could be sooo much better if they just listened to a handful of the suggestions from models.

question: I get a lot of non paying members from other countries who frequent my room .. How do you convert them if they dont speak or understand english?

I charge 4.99 for private, 3.99 for party, and 2.50 for nude. The vast majority take my private. For me, guys rarely do party chat. I do not get any complaints.

those are the increments ... either .00 or .50 ... i think ava is probably at $5 / $4/ $2.50

I'm going to run a test this weekend and try to leave non paying members for at least 2hours out of my shift and see if I convert them to paying members.

I just read the latest news...I always forget to read it, trying to put it in my brain to check it whenever I log on from now on since its seems like they're making changes on the fly. Anyways has anyone tested the beta Html Broadcaster? I'm wondering if it eliminates the need for an external broadcaster. I'm hoping that they made the new layout without tables. One of the things that annoys me about Cams is that they made their layout at least on the models end with table which makes it hard for me to see my whole earnings page and chatroom because it doesn't resize correctly when I have it side by side with another browser when I'm splitting.

Does anyone have issues splitcamming with them lately? It's been a couple of months since my connection was fast enough to split. Before I'd use the HTML version on Cams and FMLE on SM. They never complained. Today I was using OBS on Cams and when I went to renew my session I got this weird violation warning -

* Use On-Screen-Displays that advertise other non-adult sites or programs such as webcam splitters.

Since I don't have any text on my stream I'm afraid that they mean no splitting. Seriously?

When cams made their own software when I started in 2003. It made things so much easier, then once they added the web browser all their tech problems started happening.

With adobe flash dying . It would be interesting to see how these cam sites adapt to change.

No clue about the splitting warning - BUT you got a warning for THAT and I've been seeing pussy all over free chat and that hasn't been corrected? I got a warning for asking people to tip me if they want to see tits once (per the TOS they sent we can only do that on the weekends), but I caught a few girls recently full on flashing their pussies, masturbating under their panties (not allowed to do that) or with panties so small you can still see like 90% of their pussy, or just straight up not wearing panties (even though we were sent a pretty strong message in June about not doing that) and you get a warning for THAT?!

I've been having a hard time lately. with switching from nude chat back to free chat . it seems my only option to make sure I am back in free chat is to completely close the window. and let it reset so it starts me in free chat.

The way that warning was it seem like you can be topless anytime in free chat. So if the rules are just tits on weekends they need to refresh peoples memory on that.

Payout is only 50 for direct deposit i normally do 20 to 40 a day but lately around 5 or 10 a day is the average and thats all from camera turn ons and 2/3 min shows so its getting a bit redick. Irma has broken up so hopefully things start getting back to normal

pay attention to how they handled the chargeback question. they are more interested in keeping visa happy and giving customers a chargeback if their know how to complain about it the right way. basically if the cardholder also shared their card with a spouse and if the spouse is on the account chances are you are going to take the hit for chargebacks


So the best way to handle chargebacks is to under that your need to cover this cost but how you work the site or any site that doesn't cover chargebacks.

So when you start a new pay period at $0 look at it that $50 even maybe $100 is your float. you need to make that to handle chargebacks, and other fees like bank transfer or getting paid via first choice pay/payoneer. then once you handle your float then after your float you focus on your earnings you need to cover your expenses.

good to bookmark this website before you broadcast on cams.com/playwithme to make sure your connection is working fine.

Their main focus on this is having the best UPLOAD speed your internet service can offer.

I've been recommended from this new website I am working that is its best to have an upload speed of 3mbps per computer/webcam at a minimum

So if you are working multiple sites and want to keep your quality good then you might need to make the investment in increase your set up more computers maybe, more webcams and less on softwares like manycam.

I meant to catch it live, was looking at the clock when it was like 10:40am and remember that there was going to be a live stream but by 11:30am I totally forgot about it, I didn't remember until 2:30pm. Anyways although I disagree with/don't like a few things they said I do like the fact that they have taken advantage of Youtube and are reaching out to models as well as a wider audience in general. It warms my heart a little bit knowing that they are making an effort to include models and are open to listening to us and taking our suggestions. I wish more camsites/pay to play sites did things like this.

I think the reason for the bad traffic is all tech related. I normally have great/awesome placement but I know something is up when my traffic goes to shit. When it goes to shit it's because i'm showing "offline" even though I have been sitting in Free Chat for 30 minutes. Always told it's a "known issue" and they are working to fix it.

ALSO, anyone else notice this "issue" always seems to happen the last few days of the pay period? This is the second pay period that things have been smooth to amazing the whole time and then *BAM* my traffic hits a wall the last few days of the pay period when I am at tier and should be making the most $$. The last few pay periods of this shit have literally lost me easily over almost $2K aside from testing my patience because it takes me all day to make HALF of my normal goal when this happens - on top of fucking with my placement too >:(

Just a heads up for people who contact tech support in the future - Apparently when u have issues now the standard thing to do is they remote access your computer and i dont recommend you let them because of what happened to me.

My issue was I was having problems using the in browser broadcaster and I told him that - But what does he do ?
He dosent even tell me he was giving me instructions to allow him to remote access my PC he just said do this do that etc next thing i know my wallpaper to windows goes back he has control over my mouse deletes programs off my computer closes out my streammate room closes my OBS messes with my settings on OBS to something I knew was going to give me a crappy feed deletes all my layers i made pretty much everything that wasnt the layer for my mic and webcam. I had layers I had made for my vanilla youtube channel Im starting and stuff for SM and CB that I now have to remake because for some reason he felt I shouldnt have had them. After he gets done with that he starts my feed on cams with OBS then says he 'fixed' it when the in browser version was still not working right . But he was forcing the fact of me using OBS unwilling to help fix the browser broadcaster. I then discovered after he closed out the remote control that from whatever he did in OBS made it so that when OBS was open my entire computer was muted so I had to have someone else remote control my computer because I had no idea what he did to my settings in OBS . The second person fixed it and we found out what the first person did was fuck with my audio settings so that I heard nothing from my computer but everyone watching my room heard everything out of my computer that i was supposed to be hearing.

The second person knew what he was doing and pretty much undid the damage the first person did but I shouldn't have had to ask for help to fix something that someone else from the tech help department did. Its just better to not let it happen IMO. If someone tells you to go support.various.com they're trying to take over your computer tell them no your a smart cookie and you want VERBAL instructions you do not want them to take over your PC. You never knew who your going to get and how helpful tech and savy they are.

Had something sort of similar happen to me once. There was a glitch and my private show carried over into free chat. I was recording everything and was trying to show the person what had happened. The broadcaster fucked up and my FMLE was still showing fine and he took over my computer. I told him multiple times NOT to close out my FMLE (because I was recording the call to cover my ass if they banned me because of a tech issue - didn't say that of course) and he closed it immediately. All he did was a speed test. He didn't fix a damn thing, just closed out a bunch of shit I had open.

I told him I would never do anything in free chat that's not allowed and made very clear to him it was an issue with the software and I did not do that intentionally and I still got a warning and got threatened with being banned. He actually asked me if I took a screenshot when the dude took me private and I was like are you serious?! Sure, I'm going to screenshot every time someone takes me private, whatever?!

I cover my ass with cams like crazy - i have a folder with about 1200 screenshots in it of tech issues, when i start tip chats, customers being fucked up that I ban and keep coming back in, etc....
