ok I guess I am 'still having trouble' :)
The graph I originally posted was reach, not traffic rank (which you seemed to be saying it was) - but I accepted what you were saying and apologised.
Then you tell me pageviews are up. So I look out of interest and they aren't. So then you tell me I'm 'still having trouble' (ie stupid) because it is actually page views per user that count, not pageviews as stated previously by you. I'm sure you (the site?) know much more about your business than I do, so I bowed to your superior knowledge. But I don't really get why the bitchy remark, nor why relying on your info was an issue.
I don't get (because I'm stupid, clearly) why pageviews aren't relevant anyway, as surely you want more custies as well as more page views by each custy? Page views per custy have zoomed up in the last month (which you would expect with partychat and guys bouncing room to room? no? but there doesn't seem to be a corresponding increase in overall traffic (ie amount of custies).
Also, 0.005 is, I think, still half of 0.01.
I'm sure you will happily correct me if I'm wrong :D
Honestly, if you had just left it after I said sorry, you wouldn't be dragging attention to it!

I FINALLY BLOCKED MOXIE TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Score!!!!!!!
Aha! I saw that name pop in and out of my free chat a couple of times last night. My spidey senses were like hmm, I think I remember reading something bad about him in SW, but I couldn't recall for sure. He didn't freeload on any of my shows last night (I had mostly exclusives), but if he returns I don't want to even give him that chance.
I'm grateful to have a heads up on these things!

Gold show and partychat are the same thing. It shows Partychat on your profile while you have partychat on, then when you do your countdown and then start the show it shows gold show and kicks out the guys who did not pay. It just means your partychat is in progress and shows viewers they can join the show in progress and everyone else is locked out.
I've been making more with privates anyway so haven't been bothering with them.

Now it doesn't say "gold show" and party chat". It always says "party chat". The only difference is that when the model is having a countdown, the banner is yellow (gold) and when she is available for privates the banner is green.

you are not supposed to be nude in free - so basically you can give a shower show without breaking the rules as long as you are not 'nude'. Recently SM clarified on a blog about what is and isn't allowed and stated that strictly speaking, tits = nude and therefore not allowed. However, they tend to turhn a blind eye to upper body nudity but would rather it would only be flashes (ie for tips). Showing genitals is a real no no though.
So when did this rule go in to effect? When I started I could have sworn it was simply, "no below the belt nudity".....
Now all, I see on the main site is under the "Code of Conduct":
No Nudity In Free Chat In order to prevent minors’ exposure to nudity and adult material we require there to be no nudity in free chat. Nudity is only allowed in age verified areas - also known as “private” or “paid chat”. Nudity in Free areas will result in temporary suspension of your account
Never saw the blog though. Never even HEARD that they had a blog. Sure would be nice if they shared that with their models. What's the link?

when i joined it was always topless in free is fine, below the belt isn't. i wish they'd just pick a fucking rule and actually enforce it.

Or send out an email blast to all models..Wow! Such a simple thing to do that just takes one click of the mouse to keep models up to date on rule changes..... They can do it for party chat/gold show instructions, why can't they do it for rules?

No boobs in free chat?
No pussy in free chat?
Tell me another joke!
Girls show SPREAD open pussy in free chat while they are on the top row and there are snap shots of them doing it on the home page.
Are they not seeing that or turning a blind eye to the models they don't want to suspend?

There was a email sent out. 4-6 months ago or when tipping started. I was confused but it read no below the belt nudity, we can only show our breast..I assumed the figured out bnoys can pick up a shape magazine or National Geographic. Let me see if I cant find the email....

To:
Subject: Get Some Gold!
Streamate is pleased to announce a new feature where members will be able to give models GOLD!
What is GOLD?
GOLD is a way for members to let you know they like your show.
How does GOLD work?
Members in your guest and your paid room will be able to give you GOLD while they are in your chat. Members will be able to enter an amount of GOLD they'd like to give you and you will see who sent you GOLD and how much they sent in your chat window!
What is GOLD worth?
Each GOLD is equal to 1 unit of a member's local currency (e.g. 1 US Dollar for US members, 1 GBP for United Kingdom members, 1 Euro for European members, etc.). GOLD will be converted to US Dollars in your earnings.
How much GOLD do you earn?
Your GOLD earnings are billed and paid at the same rate you earn currently.
How will I see GOLD in my earnings?
Each time you are sent GOLD, you will see "GOLD" and an amount on your earnings report.
Give great shows and get GOLD!
Please note, below the belt nudity is not allowed in guest/free chat. Violations can result in account termination
<~~~~~~~HI! Wtf is this impression to us? "Below the belt" I may get twisted but I comprehend shit pretty damn good :) This is misleading to the MODELS

I didn't start on SM until February 2011 when gold was already in place. But if now they are saying no nudity at all in free, they really should sent a similar email again. I'm not talking the occasional tit flash for gold.... That doesnt bother me, but now is that even allowed? Who the hell knows? Again, more legal mumbo jumbo to cover their butts and to burn the offenders 'should' they caught. I really don't see how they can overlook certain free chats though. They have to be turning a blind eye. I'll believe it when I see some enforcement,IF that ever happens

ok here we go
orignial post was from AWModel (Streamate model division) and it was tweeted by SM (I think)
The original post has now been updated to say that it is ONLY below the belt nudity that will get you suspended
However, original post is still up so you can see what was originally said (ie nudity not allowed at all).
So, they have updated it to say we can all carry on as we were lol.
Here is the link:
http://awmodel.wordpress.com/
scroll down to second post for updated and then the one below that for original which states:
"Let’s be real: you, me, and everyone else knows that there are countless numbers of performers, both newbies and veterans, on SM that at some point or another, have flashed their boobs in hopes of snagging a private show, or even a Gold tip, or maybe for no particular reason at all. Many have bared way more than that. To many of our regular performers on the site, flashing your boobs has become just a part of the day-to-day operation, right? Perhaps it’s a strategy you use to filter out the more “serious” customers that are ready to buy a paid show? Well, I hate to break it to you, but you are in violation of site rules."

That is really very very clear. I wish they would enforce it.

Thanks..I was just curious..That blog isn't something most SM models are probably even aware of! Well seeing is believing, so I guess we just wait and see.

just to be clear - they are stating in the *updated* blog that it is only below the belt which will get you suspended. It was the earlier *original* post which said no nudity at all (and which is still up to read), although the code of conduct has been changed as Kitty said.
So, the gist is that no nudity at all is preferred but only below the belt will result in suspension.

Been after that Loser for the longest time.
Moxie NEVER pays, he comes into the private shows multiple times and clocks out before the 30 secs are up. Seen him pop into my room up to 10 times in one night during private shows.
Moxie sees me go for the computer and Pops out immediately. He knows we all want to block his ass.
Congrats LA Chloe.
Smooches,

SM traffic in a nutshell for me today:
"Bb i wanna get hot before going private. show soles bb."
"This isn't olive garden, sweetie, not giving you breadsticks so you can start dinner half full."
Chapskates were out and about today, even if I did remember to set room to credit card required. The day I forget will be the day I get even more whites in my hair. Now I'm making dinner and getting a good breather (and forum lurking!), and spend however long it takes after dinner reaching my goal! Just telling myself i got the power and the caffeine to keep my bills paid this month...

Was online for about 2 hours this eve with a few different tactics. Silent treatment did nothing. Diva attitude got a rise, and even my own sign up users weren't pushing. I could tell they hit party chats up from my commish. Bastards.
Outfit after outfit and a bottle of vodka joined the party. $30 is totally NOT worth it. Traffic sucked so I left for a bit. I am about to hop back on.. enjoy!

I was so bored tonight I started wondering what the "3, 2, 1, cam icon" flashing every couple minutes in SM is. So I came up with the theory its when they snap a still of your cam for your room listing. What's a girl to do? Well, make a distinctive pose and search herself to see if that's the still that's showing! I think I'm right about it.
And after that, try to see which stills bring more boys to the yard: tush, tits, face or full body? Experiment, write down.
Come to the following conclusion:
If your still shows face, you get flooded with guys wanting to see your boobs.
If you show cleavage, your room shall be filled with ass lovers.
Show ass, everyone just wants to see you smile.
Show everything well damn sweetie, why won't you show feet? They're out of the picture. Feet bb. show feet. please.

I think ur right bout that 321 thingy. I swear my camera flickers when Im not looking! We can make some real sexy poses when not looking! I hate that ALL companies d this but its to make the guys realize we are not ROBOTS. I love it wheb they com in and say is this pre recorded? Im like yeah mfr Im pre recorded ..flip! lol We are trained to give the bird when asked that stupid question. <3

I hate that the 3-2-1 camera snapshot starts the second you log in. I'm always going "okay, hurry and resize encoder window, move it to the corner, don't forget to set your phone, oops, people are entering my room, ah shit they just took my snapshot and I wasn't ready!"
I feel like my first snapshots after logging in pretty much suck for that reason.::)
