Lol. So, I've been pulling my hair out over a feature that won't even make me any more money than usual?
I bet, if I'd had it a freakin year ago I woulda made more. :(
Thanks for letting me vent ladies. :) muah!
BINGO! one year ago is when they where booming, now they abuse it. Customers are use to it, its not a shiny new toy to them like it use to be.They beg models for it and then do not chip in. A lot just watch the pre show.
They are good when you are bored and may want to possibly drive up traffic.

Remember Madonna's performance of 'Like A Virgin' at the 1984 MTV Music Awards? When she rolled on stage in her wedding dress? That's what I do in my gold shows completely naked on my bed for 15 mins! They would get so angry and riled up because I didn't masturbate or use toys! LMFAO!

I'm sure they were hoping for DP, ATM, anal, deep throat, squirting, cumming... all of THAT and much more for only just 5 gold! I say no Ma'am!
PS-I am at 1900 posts now. I'm aiming for that 2000. I need Oprah :)

Gawddamn. 1984?
And she's still preforming. Not a Madonna fan by any means but I respect that.

Although, I DID give myself the mental image of you dancing like that in front of your cam. :P Which made me laugh so hard I cried. :P

I feel like Streamate hates me so much. These last 2 days I've made, like, 10$ in 2 hours, and it's riling me up.
Since it's been sooooo hot lately, I've been feeling snappy, and I just want to tell people in my room to act on how they think I'm "soooo cute and sweet" and take me to private! I really am trying to be patient. :(
You guys are making me curious about Gold Shows, though! I have yet to do one, but what should I charge? Is it even worth it? Do you determine what happens in your Gold Shows, or...? What? Sorry for all the questions!
On a sidenote, I've been having my cam (usually set to HD High) crap out on me in the middle of a show and reset back to a grainy "Cable" setting. I don't use an encoder, but this has been highly disturbing to me. Anybody else been having this problem?

I vote all of us that want to join do a group gold show, All the rooms [playing "like A Virgin" I have my 1994 prom dress and it looks so 1994. I bet you guys have similar shit. We blast the song for the countdown LOL then we wallow in our beds naked like virgins ;)
I will rip off my prom dress, ya know since Im busting through it, rip it off and say "this is not how I looked in 1994. Wanna roleplay bb? wink wink "
Customers would say: umm another model is wearing some funky shit playing the same music
Model: OH NO REALLY? act all shocked
(customer buys in and complains)
Model says well, go to the other virgins room
Synchronized Gold shows LOL bet they will not ask for a gold show for a long time.

Have they enabled them? if not using the encoder, more than likely they will not enable the gold show, it is very random if they do.
We decide what goes on, some models do more for high tippers , I dont. I had a member ask a high pledging member "Are you going to tell her what you want her to do" <-- nah man, no one tells me what to do
pricing is up to you. just look around, see who is doing what, that is your best bet.

I've been on vacation, haven't worked since the 11th! Probably won't log on until my mom leaves on the 23rd. Y'all are freaking me out with the reports of super slow traffic and lagging! :(
I really hope my placement doesn't tank with being offline and then not using widescreen. I'm trying to hold off on widescreen until I can upgrade some things on my computer this fall. :-/
This is the longest break I've had in over a year! I feel like I've forgotten how to cam! It's so hard to get back into the groove after a break.
Here's hoping Streamate picks up for everyone again! :)

Regarding Gold Shows~ I think I read on here somewhere, that when someone enters chat and asks for a gs, tell him to tip 1 dollar to prove he's serious about joining. I tell him that not only will I start one, I will do what he wants to see in the show. Most of the time he does, and then contributes to the show. Even though I have been doing gs since they first were created, I'm still working on my 'hustle' to make them work. P.S.- I don't give any vids or pix usually. I don't show any body parts in the countdown either. Just the toy I will be using. (it's always the beggars that want to see skin, that never pay anyway(in my experience).
What I have noticed is, with a longer countdown, I tell those that have given gold that I want to start early, so please give more-They usually do.:biggrin:
Also, when they ask for something that's not in my gs description, I tell them I would do it for them, if they got me halfway to my goal. They do.
I keep my goal below 100 most times, because they get freaked out by higher goal numbers. I tend to have guys popping into my show and I end up making the amount that I had in my head.:D:D
Just a suggestion that is working for me. I hate free chat so much, so in these slower times, it helps to get money flowing in. Besides, I have guys take me prvt. after the show to have more than what I do in the show.:)
VictoriaChaos
07-20-2013, 08:25 AM
Yeah, I've seen $500 dollar goal for gs.
If you make it, more power to you but damn girl, that's a lot.
Guess I'll see how SM's working.
Please tell me this week long bullshit is over.

I just want to say
Not every model is the same, "slow weeks" happen at different times for everyone
Most of us deal with and work through encoder issues, its the internet, wires, cables, oversea connections, it is not going to be perfect. Mine was lagging so bad it was showing my paid show when I re entered chat. I would have to log off, refresh.
I have had wicked issues but Im not one to say fuck today, i will pray for tomorrow. I am just happy to wake up every morning.
Since I am watching my stream I see others on the side, curiosity gets me bc I am thinking, why does she look sad? <-- not sexy, log off , refresh yourself, your energy , refresh your mind. fuck with another site for a few come back and see if the blues have worn off. I take my dogs to the dog park or clean, it helps me refresh my negative mind set.
The girls I see struggling are sad , not interactive with customers the list can go on. The ugliest model can make bank, its about the energy you are giving your room.

This! It's also about personal boundaries and knowing your limits. You can smile and be upbeat all you want but there are days when camming is just simply slow. It's okay to log off and come back to refresh your energy. I was on this morning for a bit and it was so slow. I decided that I'm not going to let that intrude, steal or damage my personal power.

Because when they don't pay $1 to do it then it reflects badly on them and shows them for the freeloader/cheapskate they are. If you ask for more then they just bitchy and whine about the price.

I am not knocking a hustle
BUT :)
I am realizing where the random 1.00 gold and asking for Gold Show are coming from. Im thinking these guys are pure idiots when in fact they are being trained. I ignore dollars. There is not a subject for 1.00 gold in my topic at any time so they just loose a buck or cough up more to get a flash.
Anyways it helps me, my regulars find it insulting and send 10.00 95% of the time. I love the one who always adds this comment after sending gold. "He must have made a mistake and forgot a zero" I think its his new copy and paste thing.
As far as 20-200 , it has been done to start a goldshow .... Usually the two that do this log off bc they are not good enough to be in a gold show or any show of mine. ;) They know their place and that is to give me money. most ppl call them slaves or financial domination.
Marina Starr

I would say that also would depend on your regular rates! I've seen guys throw in $50, $100+ toward GS before!

I absolutely agree with you on that one; when it's slow and I find myself sitting there with a Bitchy Resting Face (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v98CPXNiSk) listening to hardcore punk, I log off right away, because I've seen myself how unattractive it looks when other girls are doing it.
HOWEVER, while I'm always smiling and engaging in conversations with costumers in free chat while they happen, I find it hard to understand what I should possibly do when no one logging into my room is talking to me and most of the time it's completely silent except for the sound of the music I play.
It's a conflict for me, because on the one hand, I guess it makes the guys who just logged into my room ASSUME I'm "dull" and not interested in conversations, when in fact it's the complete opposite. On the other hand - what should I do in free chat? There were 2 shifts where I tried dancing, and while it worked pretty well when it came down to keeping memebers in my room for more than a fragment of a second, it's VERY exhausting shaking your botty for an entire shift, and, honestly, I seriously think it's something guys should pay for, too.
So what are other... things I can possibly do in free chat when no one is talking to me?

I always try to chat them up a little, but this way they get too much of my attention in free chat which isn't good. If they expect to see more of me in free chat which they so much like to call "teasing" ("you have to tease me to get my money, bb"), it's just entitled freeloaders usually, or unpleasant guys anyway. The guys who take me private usually go straight into it, or after asking a few brief questions such as "do you have high heels, leggings, etc", or something like that.
