I did the same thing and I have better placement. Go figure
I just went back to the old encoder settings without changing a thing and my placement is back to where it should be.
Oh Streamate coders, you be so CRAZY!!!

So, as far as I know today's Father's Day in the US. Should I take an extra day-off today, or is it not really going to have any effect on traffic?

This morning on SM was the best ive had in a while, tech-wise, traffic-wise, and money-wise. If I hadn't been up for so long I'd still be going. There were people waiting in my room when I signed off out of my last exclusive.

Yeah, well, it's not funny anymore. Made $24 in 2 hours. Maybe I should call it quits for good.
Just to make sure: if I started last week, I'll get my first payment in about 2 weeks from now, right? (my method is Payoneer, if that matters.)

My rates are $4.99/5.99. I'm not going to go any lower than that because for some unknown reason I only get 30% (didn't sign up through a studio), so charging lower than that is just not worth it for me.

you have to think about the fact its summer too. and a lot of girls do this as a 'summer job' then start leaving around fall/winter then well get a new bach of winter models who leave around the spring but that rush isnt as bad as the summer slump but even when i wasnt camming full time i going on for a few weeks then leaving for a month/s the traffic was there and now its not a lot of ppl are going out fathers (aka men with money) are going OUT with their families back to school time (savings $ for school supplies - back to school is no joke new clothes new backpack school supplies it adds up bb) id say if ur frustrated and uncertain you can make this work for urself get a side job something to keep u afloat and experiment with different hours try the same time slot for a week and then see what time of day and days of the week for u u make the most money its different for everyone.

Nina_Den: I would email support and see if you are on a 3 week delay. That is something you need to know for sure!
Sorry the day sucked for you, bb. If it helps at all, I have been sucking when it comes to camming lately too. But, the best thing about luck is that it can change. ❤

You would have to wait 3 weeks for your FIRST check unless you contact SM support and ask to be put on weekly paid!

Am, I don't know..I earned minimum payout on May 5th, and then got paid by SM on June 7-9th, don't know for sure. It was for earnings until May 19. And it wasn't my first payment. Then I earned minimum on May 25th, and still don't have anything..Should I contact support?
AliceFun
06-16-2013, 11:33 PM
Yes Nina, people outside US, Canada, UK are paid AFTER 3 weeks normally so contact support and ask them to set ur account on weekly pay, i hope they'll do it. Good luck! By the way, sad they only pay u 30% same like they do with me, it was expected but i dont get it why they do this discrimination....
AliceFun
06-16-2013, 11:36 PM
amanda 121, make sure u have at least $105 as minimum payout, for some reason they kept $5 from my earnings before crediting my payoneer account, now not anymore, cant explain why and how but maybe less than 105 is not considered minimum...

if you have a couples account and ur 'stunt cock' is verified as well as you yes. Then you can give him a BJ in a paid show but not in free since there no bellow the belt exposure in free chat.

Yup, they mailed me saying I'm on a 3-week delay. I mailed back and asked to be put on weekly pay. I hope it'll work.
The 30% is, obviously, pure discrimination indeed. There's a Finnish girl in here (:heartbeat), however, that mentioned getting 35%, which made me think they just randomly pay 30% to countries they think "less" off, which is pretty insane, when you think about it. I wrote here in the forum about the fact they simply disabled the option for block sessions for me before I even started performing. Their response was "We'll see what we can do about it". Guess what, nothing changed.
On the other hand... I still do much better than I did on MFC, so, yeah.
Nina, do you know if you have to pay anything to be on weekly pay? I am in the same situation with the 3 weeks delay.
Nina_Den
06-17-2013, 05:02 AM
@Des, I actually have no idea, I just mailed them a few minutes ago asking if I can be put on weekly pay. Let's see.
I understand. Will you please let me know what they say? I would like to ask for a weekly pay to but i don't wanna pay % from my cut for this. The already take 70% :(

Of course, I'll keep you updated in this thread. So, you also get 30%? Where are you from?

That sounds like that may be the Payoneer instant load fee. When I first signed up for Payoneer (on ImLive), I was given two choices...
Immediate (or instant) instant load: you have the money on your card within 2 hours (I always get it much sooner than 2 hours) - it's a $5 fee each time.
-OR-
Standard loan: you have the money on your card within 2 days, I believe? And I think the fee for that one is $2 or $3 each time.
I get immediate load for all the sites I use Payoneer for, because I like having my money as quickly as possible.
Of course, I'll keep you updated in this thread. So, you also get 30%? Where are you from?
Yes, i get 30%. I am from Romania.

Oil shows have gotten so much easier since I got a mug-warmer... Just drop some coconut oil in a mug, set it on the warming plate, and in a few minutes, I have perfectly warmed up oil for the show. :)

Thank u for answering Fox but it was not the case, i had $5 taken out my earnings by SM for some reason plus the fees i paid for immediate load plus the fees for cashing the money. This lasted maybe for +2 years? I think this year 2013 they stopped taking that money out. As i always said, for certain nationals rules are different :(
