should i use lights? if it should be on top or the side? blue, pink green, anyone know?
Phone and volume should I or should I not?
Do I need to pick one?
Do fat girls make it on page 1 or make over 100.00 usd weekly?
Shit, taxes... do I do those, do I claim it all? ALL OF IT!? no fucking way am I paying taxes.
I ONLY GET 35% , dear christ! life is at a stand still right now
SHIT let me mail SM and tell them what I really think, fuck this 35% and recorded shows when all they do is make sure I get paid for every show, pay for advertising, CC fees....
Since I dont like to read can someone tell me what to do?
WTF is a goldclub, i dont have that feature...

Any help is appreciated. ;)

Okay, okay, shit, I'll bite. But seriously, read. I learned so much from the forums before even making an account, just reading the first couple pages of threads like this. Never have lights behind you. Yes you need light. I'm in between set ups so I just have two bare bulbs at my 2 and 10 o'clock. I have phone enabled in exclusive. I think it's a pain in the ass, but it lets me avoid doing shit while holding it to my ear for the guys who really wanna talk to me. You don't NEED audio but if you want to make money you need audio. "Fat girls" is so damn subjective but yes and yes. I'm shit at taxes. Sorry. But search "taxes." I use h and r block online. Yes, you only get 35%. If you want to email them, go ahead, but why would they change for you? Maybe you should read.

3.in gold shows I see a lot of girls offer photos and videos for gold so that way if the show is cancelled due to not reaching goal, the model still makes money from the tips of gold ... how do the girls get the videos and pics to the guys who pledge??? do we email them the links to the content, and do we email on SM or outside of SM?

I know this has already been answered but I gotta emphasize this: You don't get ANYTHING if you don't complete the gold show!

The girls who offer pics/videos are doing that as an additional incentive to join the gold show. You'll see them asking guys to message them to claim them. But if a girl offers pics/video along with her gold show and doesn't meet goal and doesn't do the show, the custies are not charged and the girl doesn't make shit. Same thing if you end the show early. And if you kick/block a customer during the gold show he'll be refunded and you won't get paid for that customer.

If you want to sell content through the site you can do that outside of gold shows (they send gold and message you, you send them the content.) But don't offer that in your gold show countdown thinking you'll make some money even if you cancel the show because you won't.

Also, outside contact is strictly prohibited on SM. I'm not sure exactly where girls are hosting their pics/videos nowadays but I know that it can't link back to you outside the site. And you're not allowed to ask for or provide outside contact details, if you're not careful you can get suspended. (I'll poach custies sometimes but you have to be really careful about it, it's not worth it for every guy that wants a cheap vid.)

you just added more junk though, didn't you.

When I came here as a newbie everyone was super nice and I was so grateful, albeit I read every single post on all the threads I was interested in and would advise anyone to do the same.

I would also advise anyone not to be scared or hesitate to ask a question. No one needs to write an essay to reply, but a simple point in the right direction is enough.

It would be fair if the same person was overdoing it with the questions and flooding the thread, but your response was totally unnecessary.. the same questions are asked every other page.

A few days ago I signed up with a SM customer account and soon aftwards i started getting spam mail from a dating site. I unsubscribed from the site, but somewhere along the way I was Charged $19.99 with this on my statement ECHST.NET 866-452-5108 WAUS I never signed up for anything other than SM. And I only use that email account for SM. Nothing else. I got a confirmation email but I did not authorize this. How many customers is this happening to I wonder? This is some bullshit right here. I now have to dispute this with my bank. Not nice at all.

When I started camming I started reading the Camming Connection subforum beginning from the back, every damn thread. And lots from Other Work. It was my reading for weeks. No Dan Brown for me. And when, in May, I started camming on SM, yes I read this whole thread again. But maybe that's just me. :D

I think the off-putting part about this thread is that the first several pages are essentially just a bunch of catty bitching back and forth. It can be hard to scan through those to try to get to the good stuff in the middle. We are also a society that is used to getting instant gratification so I am not surprised that people don't even bother looking. That being said I have found a lot of useful information by weeding through pages upon pages of threads :)

RaeRae
09-23-2013, 01:51 PM
There is also the search function though, so then you can search a thread first and then ask if you can't find the info you are looking for. I generally will read the past five pages of a thread to make sure I'm not repeating something and search before asking something unless I'm ranting because I don't want to waste people's time.

Funnily enough I was working full time at my vanilla job (50+ hours) and doing phone sex for another 20 odd hours. There is a lot of information readily available that many forum members have taken a lot of time to write and share. That's all.

Trust me, I go through a lot of these threads. I read for hours before ever even posting. But as much as some people might think there is nothing but useful information here, there IS a lot of absolute rubbish to read through like you mention.

Like I said, I've been nothing but sweet and humble, but if bitches wanna get catty, we can fucking do that.

looool what's going orrrn, don't get too upset.

everyone is super cool and nice here and everyone who has been on here for a long time has contributed GREATLY to the community of the site - if you read, you will find that, and find some real respect for the women on here, i would hope. hopefully as you make your journey you will contribute the same

another point is it's actually worth the time to read every last little thing. It can be hard to search the threads but, mostly, if there is something you want to know about, you can search "stripperweb gold shows", for example, and find all the threads on gold shows.

also, the chat area is pretty good too and everyone is happy to help and answer questions, or just chat.

back to the focus of the this thread: the streamate thread is, like, your Bible. the most successful people on here would tell any new starters to read as much as they can.

Party chat and Gold are the same thing. No, not everyone can do them. I think you have to have five ratings first or something like that. I really don't remember since it's been a couple of years now since it started.



I still don't understand... what is a gold show? How is it different than party chat? Can anyone do one?

I think their point is if you really want to be a cam performer you will take the time to read all the information posted on Streamate. It pretty much covers many of the questions that are always posted on here. Everyone on here is pretty nice but sometimes I think they get pissed that newbies come on here and want them to answer everything instead of them taking the time to learn and read like the rest of us did.

You'll be spending most of your time skimming the thread so really it's not that time consuming.

I think the off-putting part about this thread is that the first several pages are essentially just a bunch of catty bitching back and forth. It can be hard to scan through those to try to get to the good stuff in the middle. We are also a society that is used to getting instant gratification so I am not surprised that people don't even bother looking. That being said I have found a lot of useful information by weeding through pages upon pages of threads :)

Some days I only watch The Colbert Report and The Daily Show. If its interesting enough then I will go research it more elsewhere. The news will make your head explode. But I do love that show The Newsroom with Jeff Daniels /thread jack over

1. You can't upload videos unless you have a Gold Club.
2. Pricing varies a lot, but you shouldn't consider being under 3.99 or more per min. But do what works for you.
3. a) If the gold show is cancelled then the model gets nothing.
b) You send the guys download links using the SM mail system. They guys do have to email you first otherwise you cannot contact them. There's mediafire, camredeem and other file sharing systems that you can use.
c)You are not allowed any offsite contact.

Foremost, thank you so much for taking the time to answer me! :)
1. Ok, that makes sense. I haven't seen anything about a gold club on the site, but I am terribly busy juggling my time between many projects so it is possible I haven't noticed it.
2. I know for a fact my exclusive rate is well over 3.99, not sure about my premium rate, so I will definitely make sure it is above that now ;)
3. OK, so the gold they receive during pre-show above the asking pledge for pics, videos, topless in free chat, etc. goes toward the GOAL, and is not separate. I get it, cool.
b. I have access to my own server so I will upload them there and send them the link, which is what I do for chaturbate as well (but, since I don't have an upgraded CB account I have to ask them for their offsite email - which I don't THINK is against their rules. OFFTOPIC I know, sorry!) c. That's what I thought. Sorry, I was tired when I wrote this post, I apologize if I came off retar...

Like I said, I've been nothing but sweet and humble, but if bitches wanna get catty, we can fucking do that.

Are you REALLY sure that you want to do that?

When I was a baby beginner camgirl I went through the same trial by fire that you are going though now and I smiled and grit my teeth through it all.....good and bad because I knew that women who were getting paid by the minute didn't owe me any free answers.

So here we are two years later and I *still* get teased by other cam girls about asking stupid questions.

But you know what? They always answer them and it makes my camming career a hell of a lot easier.

1. You don't; the site does (records your shows & sells them, and no you don't get a cut)

2. Get a customer account & look at prices. For us to tell you about "pretty girls who get a lot of shows" we have to offer opinions on two subjective concepts. Get serious about your business, and do some reading and looking around.

3. You don't keep ANY gold whatsoever if you cancel the show. The site doesn't differentiate gold earned for photos/vids & gold pledged toward the show, if the pics/vids were sold during a countdown. The girls are offering entire libraries of porn because they can no longer get a room full of guys to pledge $0.10-$0.50/min to watch their live show, so they now choose to bribe them with incentives, and if the guys pay for the videos, it gets the girls that much closer to their show goal. There may be other reasons behind it too.

4. There are actually some threads on this. Direct download links thru SM e-mail.

Edit: Thanks Vlodina. I didn't realize you'd already answered.

Thanks.
1. I am aware of this fact. Your information conflicts with the more believable reply I received previous to yours.
2. a) If I wanted to go thru all that trouble, I wouldn't have posted the question here. b) Pretty girls KNOW they are pretty, and is not subject to what other's think "pretty" is - i was asking THOSE girls. C) I am extremely F****** serious about my business and have done TONS of reading around, but since I am SO busy with many projects and websites, I may have overlooked the info somewhere so I decided to ask my question on this forum since SM takes a long time to reply sometimes.
3. There is no differentiation between gold pledged for extras and goal gold, now understood. I don't consider offering "extras" any kind of "bribe", incentive yes. It is fun to have a variety of ways to connect to customers besides only performing live shows. Being able to take home a souvenir from the gift shop of the entertainment park is general practice of anyone who enjoys the rides.
4. I understand that there are threads about this on SM, but having just joined this site, I thought this would be a good first question to ask the members since it was really the only topic I have been confused about.

I found Vlodina's response very informative and unbiased.

I would NOT suggest that at all. It's never good to be new and rock the boat. Read the info on Streamate and if you still have a question let me know. I'll be happy to answer them or point you in the right direction if I don't know the answer. :)



Trust me, I go through a lot of these threads. I read for hours before ever even posting. But as much as some people might think there is nothing but useful information here, there IS a lot of absolute rubbish to read through like you mention.

Like I said, I've been nothing but sweet and humble, but if bitches wanna get catty, we can fucking do that.

Are we reading the same quote? I don't understand how it was biased or non-informative? :/ I'm so confused ... I thought her answer was very helpful towards new girls.

I didn't say anything about her post, whether it was informative or biased. I merely stated that I found the previous response un-biased and informative.

I know this has already been answered but I gotta emphasize this: You don't get ANYTHING if you don't complete the gold show!

The girls who offer pics/videos are doing that as an additional incentive to join the gold show. You'll see them asking guys to message them to claim them. But if a girl offers pics/video along with her gold show and doesn't meet goal and doesn't do the show, the custies are not charged and the girl doesn't make shit. Same thing if you end the show early. And if you kick/block a customer during the gold show he'll be refunded and you won't get paid for that customer.

If you want to sell content through the site you can do that outside of gold shows (they send gold and message you, you send them the content.) But don't offer that in your gold show countdown thinking you'll make some money even if you cancel the show because you won't.

Also, outside contact is strictly prohibited on SM. I'm not sure exactly where girls are hosting their pics/videos nowadays but I know that it can't link back to you outside the site. And you're not allowed to ask for or provide outside contact details, if you're not careful you can get suspended. (I'll poach custies sometimes but you have to be really careful about it, it's not worth it for every guy that wants a cheap vid.)

Yes I got the answers I needed already, but thank you for your emphasis.

Is anyone doing well on Streamate right now? I've taken most of the last week off to work on videos since it's been so slow.

Yeah, I need to be here for like way more months before I can get verified. I'm kicking myself in the face for not making the account way back when I first got started, almost a year ago now...

@Graceface I did okay tonight. I was on for like 2, 2.5 hours, maybe less, I haven't checked yet and made about 155, with none of my regs showing up (balls). My placement was normal and I got a tv as well.

I am not stating in this comment that you are one entitled and rude newbie. I am merely stating that I've found other newbies on Stripperweb to be less rude and entitled.
