anyone know why they got rid of showing how many credits the member has? that was like the best feature they had
probably because of how certain models were treating the customers.
at least we still know who has the ability to spend money.

Oh god yes!.. You have to be a math wizard now, I like the way it was before that..... and not knowing how much someone has? I have seen some of these guys with like 10 cents in their account for days on end abusing the system.. just hopping around talking to girls, seeing free things and never bothering to spend money... EVER!.. I feel like I am blind now and can't see. haha
^^ I know it's so annoying
What's also annoying is in the show breakdown it only shows the gross amount earned and not what I actually get after Cams takes out their percentage.

Ok, I'm glad it's working at least in a roundabout way. Let me know if other weirdness arises.
Thanks. It kept "losing connection with the server," or "disconnecting from the server" when I got on last night. That was another problem I've previously had on Cams. I like Cams, but between these issues and the nuisance of having to go through all my snapshot photos to delete the bad ones, it's driving me bonkers.

^ wow yes the snapshots....i have tons of horrible ones lol, i don't even delete them because it would take too long. wish they would change it so we could click to approve the good ones instead.
and yea i hate how they show what the member spent...like who cares...show me what i made.

We did have some server issues briefly last night, but they should be resolved now.

Hmm, the snapshots are meant to be a look at your chats, so people can have a sample if you aren't currently online. Granted, they aren't always the most flattering because they're fairly random. :)

Yessss We had a big problem with models ignoring, mistreating, and sometimes even kicking new users from their rooms just because they hadn't spent money yet. This is obviously not good for business for anyone. Imagine walking into a store and being ignored or even kicked out just because your wallet was currently empty even though you had money in the bank! We have noticed revenues increasing already since the change, and users are being treated with much more respect.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me directly on twitter @camsdotcom or via email streamrayelli (at) gmail.com.

All I know is I'd get guys coming in my room with the same piddly amount of money for weeks at a time so obviously not only not spending money on me but not spending money on anyone aka classic freeloader. The more time wasted on non paying guys the less time is available for legitimate customers so this is a bad idea.

I don't like the UNFLATTERING ones, no. And others on here have commented about the same thing. It's not just me. When random snapshots are being taken in between my paid chat sessions, naturally it's going to capture unflattering shots...me yawning, blowing my nose, making ugly faces while singing to myself, me hunched over to pick up something off the floor, etc. This is why I will often go through the random snapshots, so I can keep the ones that are okay, and delete the ones I don't like. I don't need to have ugly pics like that on my profile. Lol.
Also got disconnected again last night for "inactivity" which is ridiculous because I was there on cam the whole time and sitting in plain view of the cam. I guess if you're sitting still for too long, that's considered inactivity? Kind of sucks since I like to do other things like listen to podcasts/watch YouTube videos in between paid shows.

Loathe the tip vibe. Half the time anymore I feel like I'm on frigging Chaturbate with mostly naked chicks moaning and twitching around like fish on a hook. Private based sites have totally went to shit
Here's some funny crap. I actually had a customer buy me one out the blue so I thought I'd be a raging hypocrite and try it out but it wouldn't work and when I messaged support they told me it only works if I run my computer using Wi-Fi instead of a Ethernet cable. Now it was no big deal to me as I was just going to check it out but if I'd paid for it with the intention of actually using it I would have been steamed as since my feed is crappy on WiFi I need to use the cord

Girls…on Cams.com, do You flash in buzzmode? Because I have just studied other models and most of them flash tits for tips, if a member start and tip them, many of them show boobs, even if the member doesn t ask for flash or something. I was on Cams.com for a while, and I want to get back, but for me is not really comfortable to flash in free, even for tips, but seems there is something normal. How do You handle this? Thank You!

I think with the amount of money I am now LOSING working on this site and with all of the "tech issues", scraping off the top and traffic pulls we are experiencing when we start making good money I think the Cams models should all raise our prices higher (ALL OF US!) to compensate for it. It's almost like they are trying to make it harder for us to get through 32% now. SM models seem to charge high to compensate for the flat 35% and it's a busy site.... I used to AVERAGE $8-10K a month on Cams now I'm lucky if I can pull down $4K with the same amount of time online. It's depressing........

I've raised my rates on cams. I will know in 90 days if I will raise them again. I do find it annoying they don't have sound effects to let you know when someone is in you room. with their low traffic. it would make sense to have a notification someone is in your room. They should learn from smartphone notifications people answer those instantly.

I tend to get more free chat to private. I am more annoyed of the lack of sound notifications happening. I ended up in nude chat thinking I clicked free chat. and didn't even hear the guy come in so when i looked up I assumed he was in regular free chat, but time I realized i had a nude chat it was when i was refreshing my page.
it's hard enough with the sites having low traffic, but not having sounds effects how the hell am I suppose to know I made any money.

Its either glitched or they took the sounds out on pourpose but me personally i think they took the sounds out on purpose . Cams is openly against slpitting and i think they think if they make it harder for us to make money on there unless were watching our chat room liike a hawk well only work theiir site but they dont have the traffic to back it up anymore but theyre still trying and its pushing models away but steve is an idiot and thinks like the worst kind of cam customer there is . I still cant get over the fact he was telling girls to lie and say your single and then like a week or two after that i know a girl who got written up for it and telling customers the truth that shes married and she needed to stop and start teling ppl she was single because thats what steve wanted us to do . steve turned that site into an absolute shit hole because a man should not be telling women who to do porn . hes never worked in cam and thinks he knows everything when he knows fuck all about fucking everythting in this profession.

They aren't leaving the site because the home page looks ugly. They are leaving the site because THEY are getting ripped off too and they are tired of the constant technical issues. I've lost a few reliable regulars that are a consistent part of my paycheck because they are tired of the site ripping them off and they are tired of always having tech issues. These are guys that have been coming to me for years and I have a good relationship with. They have complained to me of being double charged for stuff, their CC info being stolen, their accounts being hacked and that they are tired of having so many technical issues when they are being charged - nothing kills a boner like frozen video or sound cutting out all the time.

Calm down please.I understand that you trying to tell that new screenshots system is making models looks ugly,and you loosing your income from that,but the site has many others issues too to make guys leave it, but as any other site for example many my sm guys move on to cb because c2c works well there.
But on SM and cb screenshots good,not making you so ugly as on cams and that's all difference between them,same issues and better view for members,exiting.

Ur posts have only been trolling and if you have actually been a model on Cams for 10 years you MOST DEFINITELY have had members complain about tech issues and actually leave the site because of it, at least once.

Look it is very possible to be a model and not concern or stress yourself over tech issues that could happen on a website. I do not worry over what tech issue a site goes through. I only focus on which website is making me money and which website had paid me on time.
Tech issues, model account problems I tend to deal with them on my own with the website and I do not need to post every annoying complaint that is happening.
which keeps me on a positive level over focus on negatives that i can not control.
i am going into 16 years of this ... I am this way because I focus on my money and not some stupid tech issue or customer complaint why do I need to carry that negative energy for .
All these threads for cam site threads are just a list of complaints and it does not help anything.

YES. Thank you. After the Ifriends drop, I've started to read every single cam site thread, to see what's all about.
Everywhere only complaints. But still, in the "camming rocks" everyone does well.
I decided to ignore that and simply work on a site that I think it matches me and ignore complaints.
"this has glitches"/ "this is full of freeloaders"/ "on this one is too cheap, even if the price limit is to the sky", this is full of this and that.
Well.. ALL the sites are!! All the sites have glitches, all the sites have freeloaders and disadvantages.

I would imagine that you wouldn't get paid money for anything you do in free chat, unless a guy is able to tip you in Cams free chat? I haven't actually done free chat on Cams yet (I've only done Nude Chat on there, which is paid). Years ago, I remember being in free chat on a site called Webcams dot com, and I think I'd click on these guys' names and, if I wanted to, could open up their webcams and see their big 'ole faces...some of them jerking off. Lol. And that was definitely not paid. On that site, the only way you got paid with free chat was when a guy tipped you. Otherwise, he'd have to take you private.
I know that on MyFreeCams, I tell them that for cam-to-cam, they can either A) take me private, or B) tip 200 tokens for me to watch their cam for 5 minutes while I'm in public/free chat. Most of them leave the room immediately when they find out I'm not about to watch their cam for free. HAHA.

Yes, you do get paid. I’ll need to look up the amount though.
ETA: they pay $1 a min to turn on their cam no matter if its free or paid chat (obviously they are getting charged the paid chat rate as well if they open it in paid chat) so if you are at 32% payout, you get 0.32 a min.
