haha cool! lucky you. I was just back from there last month. I brought my hubby to the states from the netherlands. So, not gonna have 3 month stays anymore for a while. Sighs.

Does anyone know if I can cam while I am in Norway? I was thinking of spending some time there.

Does Streamate just suck really bad for the last two days or have I completely lost my touch?

Is Streamate really slow these last couple days or am I just ugly and old and no one is interested in me anymore?

Welcome to the inside of my head.

It's me huh? You can be honest. You can go ahead and tell me that I am just old and ugly and no one wants me anymore.

Am I the only one who gets really angry during times like this?

I alternate between hatred and wanting to cry.

Is it just me, am I the only freak here? Am I the old, ugly freak that nobody on Streamate wants anymore?

And while I am at it why have I had gas for the last two months? Seriously I never used to get gas. Now I alternate between never making any money on Streamate and farting during gold shows.

Its def not you. Check out Camming sucks, the real reason its slow, and Streamate's making me want to cry threads. These last couple of weeks have been slow/bad for a few of us.


Don't stress over this too much. It's bad for camming. We all have slow days and sm clearly has a lot of glitches going on right now. Do other site or c4s if you aren't making much on sm. One egg in the basket isn't good idea. :)

Renton, I must tell you. You are very hot on cam and that you are from Belgium. I love visiting BE when I come to the Netherlands (noord-Brabant). :)
Yep c4s is what I've started doing. Def has taken some stress off. Haven't seen her on cam but I was just looking at Renton's Avi and thought dam she's hot.

Yes your profile will automically change to Norway due to ISP address. Mine did every time I'm in the Netherlands.

The phone feature is down, super weird .

Yeah I had a guy buy a block reeeeally wanted phone, could not figure out what the fuck was going on. I had other tech issues all night--guys getting booted from private chat for "technical issues," I got a message that I got paid right but my gold show didn't end properly, etc...what a mess.

Weird. I know I can change to uk or canada if I wanted to, while I am in the states. There's an option for that but I didn't have that when I was in the Netherlands. While in the NL, I had uk and Germany and Belgium. If I remember correctly. I tried to make support change it to US so I don't stuck with Dutch custies but they said no. I tried hotspot to get us ISP but that didn't work either. Meh.

Hi there
Am thinking of joining Streamate but have a few unanswered questions, even though I’ve searched round the net I’ve not quite got clarity on them, would be grateful for any help.
1) What Does ‘Classic’ Chat Mean?


2) Do They Record Your Shows And Put them on Internet/Porn Sites?

3) When Is The Best Time to cam (from the UK) if any?

4) Do You Get Called ‘names’? – (currently camming on AW and find guys in the UK are mostly complimentary) – its just I viewed some other cammers on SM y’day, just to see what its like, how it works and noticed some of the performers were being referred to as ‘whore’ etc… even though they seemed anything but!

5) Can you get taken from Private to Exclusive.. for instance on Adultwork, you cant'. You have to log out of Group before becoming available for a 1 on 1 session

6) Can you see how much balance guys have in their account when they cam with you? (just curious!).


7) Is splitcamming allowed by Streamate? - am pretty sure it is as there appears to be a lot of open topics about it here but just wondered how its done.. for example I have been thinking about doing it for some time with (AW & SM) --- I have read British Becky’s ‘Basic Guide to Splitcamming’ on here and IF I am reading it right as I understand it I can switch OFF Freechat on AW and also disable Private and only have Group enabled… (I THINK that’s what she means!) --- also on SM I understand it is compulsory to do Freechat… sooo…. if I’m reading it that BB is saying you make use of the ‘break button’ on SM (if you get taken into Group on AW)…. as obv if you get taken into Group on AW first and are in freechat on SM.. its not fair on the person who is paying on AW….if you are just doing ‘freechat’ stuff as I’m assuming you can’t go nude etc in freechat on SM (the way you can’t on AW.. I don’t know SM rules as I’ve not yet joined!)…….. anyway I think I’m reading it right in reading it that way,.. however if you are already in Group in SM and someone comes into Grp on AW then obviously that doesn’t matter!)…………………………. Also I assume by splitcamming you can only do Group… and I don’t know if you have the Option to only do Group on SM… (the way you do on AW)………so do you have the option to do only Group on SM?? (I was following what BB said in her basic guide (or thought I was) until she mentioned going into Private… this part I got lost at.. as I think… if you are in Group and have a few guys in Group, why would you want to go to Exclusive in SM as surely you are earning far more in Grp (or Pvt as its referred to on SM).

Anyway have waffled on long enuf, sorry if the above is confusing…but I would be really grateful for some clarity on the above. Many thanks.

Hi AF camgirl, I have read through most of those topics you've put a link too (I was up (literally!) up all night.. until 7am this morn reading some of them! lol.. as there is over 300 pages in one and nearly 300 in the other) .......they tend to deviate off-topic here and there so at times its hard to find specific information... I thought it might be quicker to put up a specific post on here, hence this post.............. I guess too some of my queries are mosty related to UK cam girls. Thank you for your input anyway.

1) Classic chat I believe none of the guests can see what each other are saying. Only what they're typing.

2) I think you do run the risk of having your pvts recorded. But I figured that could happen on any site.

3) I don't know because I'm in the US but I think this applies to most camgirls no matter where they're camming from. "Best time" is going to be different for everyone. Some people do really well at night, others do well during the day. I personally don't take into consideration what time it may be in the US or any other places. I go on during the hours I seem to make the most money. Your best traffic could come from only uk men or only us men or only people who are on during the day/night/afternoon etc.

4) Yes, there will always be asshats. They'll either be looking for a free domination show, mad that you wouldn't give them a free flash, or just trolling.

5)I'm not sure but you have to accept a member's request for an exclusive session.

6)You can't see a member's balance.

7) I haven't attempted splitcamming because site rules vary on some of the sites I'm on. I usually don't show anything h/c in free chat anyway but it's too much for me to tackle right now.

1. Classic chat is where other users cannot see what fellow users type. You also cannot do gold shows while in classic chat.

2. Shows may be recorded for promo use, and obviously users record shows and post them all the time, as with any cam site.

3. I'm in the US, so I don't know. But this is going to really be something you have to test out and figure out what works for you.

4. Yes.

5. If you are already in private, you cannot go into exclusive until you are finished with the current private session.

6. No. SM doesn't have a "credit" system where guys have to purchase credit in advance. Their card on file is simply charged for whatever they spend. They do have daily limits tho, which they can increase or decrease in their account settings.

7. I don't think it's technically allowed, but many many many people do it.

8. Personal preference. I would have used the same names if I thought it out better. But then again, if you do then guys can search your screen name to find you on the site with the cheapest rate, which is not what you want.

Hope that helps! :)

maybe they try to keep it that way because they know that guys might want girls from US/Canada more than other parts of the world (guaranteed English) as a way to prevent everyone from saying US?

There are still a few girls who are obviously eastern euro who use US or other English fluent countries but whatev.

Just an FYI to people who don't do goldshows... in customer time it shows up as length of goldshow for every customer. So maybe one day you have 25 hours of customer chat time. If you start to do them and see a huge increase in customer chat time THAT is why... not some glitch. Though I did o.O first time that I saw it.

I doubt it which is why I'm thinking, who cares about this "new" pic update. The issue that I have is waiting for them to approve it. They still said it would take up to 72 hours. I do understand the need to approve photos as they don't want anything against TOS to be displayed, however, that was the only issue I had with SM. The slow approvals.

That's a great little 'How To' video for setting up our SM console!
I know new models will really appreciate being able to see how it's done.

Because while streaming I rely heavily on my notes, I set mine up as you do, but I reduce my Encoder image size to 75%. Doing this leaves a little extra room for my 'Notes' box to sit along side Encoder viewer.

Using an i7 processor, I also open up another browser typed (if I stream in FF, I'll open up Chrome or IE) and sign-in to SM as a member, and open my Twitter feed (as well as anything else I like to check while streaming... like sports sites to see if the game is over.) That way I have another 'console' so I can Tweet what I'm doing on cam (with a link to my room, of course) and to quickly be able to quickly assess my placement on the site.

Anyone have other console configs?

Does Streamate just suck really bad for the last two days or have I completely lost my touch?

Is Streamate really slow these last couple days or am I just ugly and old and no one is interested in me anymore?

Welcome to the inside of my head.

It's me huh? You can be honest. You can go ahead and tell me that I am just old and ugly and no one wants me anymore.

Am I the only one who gets really angry during times like this?

I alternate between hatred and wanting to cry.

Is it just me, am I the only freak here? Am I the old, ugly freak that nobody on Streamate wants anymore?

And while I am at it why have I had gas for the last two months? Seriously I never used to get gas. Now I alternate between never making any money on Streamate and farting during gold shows.

It's been really slow for me this week too.... Actually the last couple of weeks. I think that when things are uncertain with the economy/govt people hold onto money a little more, they don't spend on unnecessary things, ya know? I know I do the same when things start looking grim and uncertain...

It picked up for me late last night and today. Hopefully it continues for everyone! Try not to be so hard on yourself bb!

Try not to stress too much. Personally this week has been awful for me on SM and as much as I know I should of logged on for more hours or tried different times, I just didn't. Guess I'm just mentally not there. Now for me, it's a matter of regrouping, getting out of my funk and putting in the time. I do agree with the other ladies about creating other venues of income, I know I need to.

Weird question, I don't know if this has happened to anyone else or been addressed elsewhere but yesterday I had a guy go in private and after a minute he said...Hi, I am just testing something out and I am going to leave in a minute. I will rate you 5 stars though. I asked what are you testing? He waited, tipped me $5 and then left. About 10 minutes later he went back in private and said the same thing, I asked again what he was up to and when he wouldn't answer, I booted him out.

WTF could he have been doing? Anyone know? Whatever it was, it sounded fishy and I could care less about the stupid $5 or the 5 stars, I have a consistent 5 star rating anyway. But I was sort of freaked out. I never took anything off so he didn't get to see anything. Any ideas ladies? Thanks!!

My boyfriend is brilliant with coding and stuff, and at one time he was promoting models on another site. Sometimes he'd have to go into their live shows to see what the code was. He'd always tell them what he was doing though, so they knew they could kick back and not have to do a show. I have NO idea if that's what this person was doing. It could be any number of things. Either way, grabbing code, or jerkin' off, his hands were busy and he couldn't type what he was up to. LOL

It was unusual, but if they were really up to no good, wouldn't they have said nothing, told you to strip or something else to get you busy while they did their nefarious thing? Anyway, that's how my mind thinks.

Another question.

Has anyone applied for a loan using their earnings from SM? Like for a car loan?

I know some lenders verify your income by calling your employer to see what you're really earning?
Does SM even have a number to call?
Are they even allowed to verify the income of the models to the dealer?
How would this work, because I have no idea lol.

You would have to tell the lender that you are self employed, which means they will ask for your tax returns for at least a year but I would be prepared for up to 3 years of tax returns showing the income that you make. Unfortunately, it's not really easy to get approved for loans being self employed unless you have been doing it for a while.

SM won't verify your income because you are not employed by them, you are a self employed independent contractor.

Also, you just started camming so it would be wise to wait quite a while before you commit yourself to something like a loan based on your camming income, since camming can be pretty unpredictable especially when you're new.

You can ask but they usually won't give them to you until you meet the requirements.



Question, can I email support and have them give me gold shows without me meeting any of the requirements?

Thanks for replying.

I have other income too, they just want to verify this income because that's what I stated I received, along with other sources.
This specific lender said I would only need to provide a month's work of bank statements and/or "paystubs".
I explained to them that I was an independent contractor, among other things, but I feel like if they're going to base any earning I do make from SM that they're not going to be able to approve me if they can't verify the earnings, because my other income is kind of under the table, I guess.

Either way, I'll probably just end up sending them what they need and hope everything goes through...

I have used my SM pay stubs as proof of income before, if you get a check in the mail you could try that? Or send a month of bank statements? I've had to do that as well.

Okay, hopefully that will work.
They didn't need to verify with Streamate or anything?

It's been really slow for me this week too.... Actually the last couple of weeks. I think that when things are uncertain with the economy/govt people hold onto money a little more, they don't spend on unnecessary things, ya know? I know I do the same when things start looking grim and uncertain...

It picked up for me late last night and today. Hopefully it continues for everyone! Try not to be so hard on yourself bb!


Oh some of that is tongue in cheek, somewhat... You know honestly things have been looking grim ever since I graduated from art school and that was a while ago, but yes... grim-er. O_o In our uncertain Society we need to do everything we can to look out for ourselves and the ones we love. I am going to try and branch out a little and get some projects going.

I know this may seem a little off-topic but this last year I began reading the ingredients in the foods that I eat. I cook my own meals but I began reading the ingredients on foods like olives, the little chocolate donuts I was addicted to, coconut water that comes in a carton from Sprouts. I really began researching and learning about these ingredients and the stuff that is added to our drinking water and after a while I couldn't help but arrive at the conclusion that we are being poisoned and our lifespans are being shortened so that we will mindlessly go to work, pay taxes and then die owing medical debt, having to sell everything we own in our last days to pay our bills so that we can die before we are able to collect any Social Security. I know it sounds crazy but I will happily be the crazy woman if even one person looks into what I am saying and begins looking out for herself and her loved ones.

A few months before I started camming I applied for a car loan as an independent contractor (and had just started at that job, too.) They didn't care and never called my job, probably because I was able to put a decent amount down. If you can save a few thousand it will make it much, much easier.

Phone feature is fucking up again. :( Just had a guy try it twice, it kept saying he wasn't answering.

On the bright side I made almost $4 just for answering my phone. ;)

Streamate is making me a little cranky. I have this guy who did a gold show a while back who keeps taking up all my time talking to me about his male-centric life and how I need to meet him for sex. Anyway I started a gold show and he said, "It's too bad my account is not accepted, because I would like to join your gold show." I went ahead and banned him. My thought was I have it set up so only customers with credit cards can enter my free chat so I figured he was just BSing me. That and I hate having to play nice to someone who is boring the crap out of me for hours at a time. And honestly in the last year I have banned over 300 people on Streamate. I sometimes worry I am going to crash the software because I have banned so many people. My question is do you think he was BSing me?

My question is do you think he was BSing me? The better question might be: regardless of whether or not he could join that particular show at that time, do you feel better having banned him? So what if he could've spent $3 if his account hadn't been glitching. If he's taking up all your time in free chat and trying to convince you to meet him, he had a very near expiration date.


And honestly in the last year I have banned over 300 people on Streamate. I sometimes worry I am going to crash the software because I have banned so many people.
Believe me, you won't crash the software banning 300 people over the course of a year.

Recently Visa froze my CC account because they suspected fraud due to erratic purchases made at strange times from a number of different countries. In that time, I had spent on SM and my account on there was "suspended" until everything got cleared up. I could still go into peoples' rooms but couldn't spend any money. Unfortunately we can't see when this happens because it would be really nice to know if people who HAVE spent can even spend again or if they are cut off from that option. It's possible that something like that happened to him but I would ban as well if he was taking up a bunch of time in free chat and was boring or annoying. I ban like 100 people/month so I'm sure that you're not going to crash their site.

So just FYI, if you make a million tiny purchases on your CC from MFC and SM at weird hours and then also try to order stuff from England and Korea... Visa is going to get curious. Well better safe than sorry, right?

ALSO yeah Renton is fucking hot.

Thank you Savannah, Thank you Sarah, thank you both for taking the time to reply --- and WOW can't believe Sarah you are a Mum of THREE!!.... twins AND a young Mum to boot at that & I think also in the past I've stumbled upon your blog before on my internet travels............... also that's a very good/valid point about using the same alias and then the cheapskates rooting around to see if they can find you elsewhere cheaper!!! I don't think I'll use the same alias - though am curious why you think you should have.

I know I did have ONE more question but my grey cells for the day seem to be depleted... if I remember it I hope you don't mind if I come back and pick your brains about it............. for now however I just wanted to say thank you girlies (think that's a UK type phrase lol). :)

I keep my account set up so only customers with CC can enter chat too. But I occasionally still get members who claim that their cards are not working and other excuses. I think what they really mean is "I'm broke" lol.

Whether he was BSing you or not, I think you made a good decision to ban him. He is costing you money by affecting your mood when you work. One customer is not worth all of that stress.

I don't think you will crash your software, but I have often been curious of whether banning too many people will affect placement over a period of time. It's just a thought.

not our fault they keep bringing in guys who think sm is a virtual brothel of sorts or get-a-girlfriend .com

Many of these guys use credit or debit cards to register but they dont intend/ cant use these cards to pay, a guy told me once "oh i just used the card to get age verified, it's not a card i can pay with". Wow and i was thinking their cards must be good cards. Oh well...
