Whoa! Last time I was approved in like 3-4 hours, the most was 36 hours. (I've consumed a few accounts already :O) But I have never had anything rejected.

that sucks, by the time i get approved i probably wont be in the mood to try it out anymore and stick with my current sites. they need to sort their shit out.

Yeah it took about 10 hours for me to get approved. They seem to be really quick to deal with some things but others seem to take forever.
I'm so over the stupid rating system. Guys totally just dick you when they want to get even with a chick that wouldn't give them the time of day IRL. Also, how do you know it's not your competition or a studio sending thier friends in for 2 min shows and giving you a shit rating. ( I know I've said this before in more than one place, and yes it's paranoid, BUT when it comes to greed and money never underestimate the other party.)

I can believe that. It's better just to remove it instead of solving the overall issue. Plus their code is old and sloppy.

so wait, when did the only one time rating thing happen?
temptingmodel
11-18-2013, 08:38 PM
a few months ago , what I don't understand is why do we still see previous ratings if one only counts?

has this been announced by sm? I havent heard about it. O.o kinda unfair considering it should be based on show not a person

i just switched off of dp...and im being paid by payoneer..but i got no emails from payoneer and nothing in my sm payment history.
has anyone who just switched off dp gotten paid?
i did mail vanessa when i switched to make sure i wasnt on a 3 week delay too and she said nope.

oh and don't worry about ratings on sm, i always go between 4.5 and 5 stars but my $$ is the same and no one has ever said anything about me not having 5 stars..so i dont even think guys notice lol its one of those things only us as performers care about i think

I switched off of dp too around Nov 10, and I'm waiting to see what happens this coming Friday? I guess Friday is when we get paid? I have no idea because I've never worked directly under SM before. I got exactly one whole week (last) directly with SM, so I too am curious how it will go on a weekly schedule when it's time to get paid. (I also show no previous payment history, but I can see what I've earned each week since opening the account under dp.

Hottie when did you switch?
I was put on the sm pay system 6th nov and worked up to cut off on the 9th expected to get my first payment today but got nothing, no email from payoneer friday to say funds had hit my account.
Its not payoneer fault, sm simply have not paid me and still no word back from them as to why.
Payment history all back up and running but i have none.
As soon as i knew i had no email from payoneer friday i pretty much knew something was not right, emailed support and liz, still nothing back from liz and support finally got back to me again yesterday after clearly not reading my first email and sending a standard reply.
Not happy at all now am waiting back to hear from support when they get a reply back from "the appropriate department" they forwarded my email to.

Yes you should be notified by payoneer on the 22nd that payment has been made and it hits your account the following tuesday.
But i still haven't been paid from cut off the week before since switching from dp.
BlueBunny
11-19-2013, 01:12 AM
Bootiebabe, please keep us updated on your situation. I am so going to freak the fudge out if they do not send payment on the 22. It will be very very bad for my insurance bills. *facepalm*

I'm waiting for my payment from the week of the 10th-16th too and still nothing. Nothing in my payment history, nothing in Payoneer and nothing but the standard response email from Streamate that doesn't answer anything. Ugh! Its making me reluctant to get back on cam, I tried 2.5hrs last night and I just had the worst attitude and made $7.35 go figure!

Ugh why don't they just tell us that instead of ignoring emails or just replying with the generic email that doesn't answer anything. It is affecting my motivation to get on cam and my attitude when I'm on.

There are several posts in this thread on the difference between what ladies do in exclusive and premier chat.
I don't mean to sound like the Streamate Thread Nazi, but searches are really helpful. And it's getting extremely hard to find any kind of important info in this thread because it's getting cluttered with this kind of post. Butt plug questions, I'm sure, would be better placed in other threads? Especially since it's relevant to any kind of camming and not just SM.
brittany_bitch
11-19-2013, 12:43 PM
Oh well sorry I searched for general questions and camming questions and to my astonishment nothing came up maybe I will post that in the newb friendly thread then since I can't find anything else. I unlike others actually do USE the search function. The search function should be a little easier I think since everyone is always like SEARCH lol and the damn thing doesn't work the way it is supposed to which is why I guess there are questions.I didn't need anything other than what is it used for but that's ok I will just search google hopefully again and I will find something this go round because nothing but toy stores popped up. Thanks. Also a relevant question do I have to use sound in a goldshow countdown?

Jeez, seems like every time someone asks a question they get some shitty response, and are told to look it up. if YOU dont want to answer, then dont answer, but dont assume the rest of us are annoyed.
I'm not an anal girl, but i do finger play in exclusive. Hope that helps.

Is it really just me that has not been paid from sm for the pay period 3-9th nov after switching from dp? I know he can send some arsey emails but f**k at least i got paid and had a response.

well on SM payment is put out a week AFTER the week you make the money. So let's say that you work THIS week and make 1700$. That payment won't be sent to you until NEXT Friday (and will arrive by cheque likely on the Tuesday if you get paid by cheque).
so you should be getting your cheque very shortly.
DMaribella
11-19-2013, 03:36 PM
^ I haven't either. This is the first time I've worked SM since switching from DP a while ago. My earnings/sessions show up for that week, but it still isn't showing any payment history.

Thanks sophie that does help :) I do the finger play as well do you know if in a gold show I have to use sound like while counting it down? I will use in show but Idon't want to while waiting. Thanks. Wow I am scared I won't get paid what in the world is going on with sm and payments I hope I get mine and you ladies too because I have never seen any issued about payments with sm yet.

I just don't like talking lol I find myself talking about aliens an non horny things with guys and they really don't get many shows when I talk I do good without sound I always use sound in pvt and exclu though. I just got gold shows I wanted them so bad last month and begged for them then got the encoder and still haven't did the first gold show lol. I am not so sure I will ever use them although I know they are probaly lucrative. Hope this payment thing works out for everyone .

Yeah I'm hoping it's just a day late or something because I live in a suburb and it has to go through the main City PO before coming to me or something silly like that. If I don't see it tomorrow I'll contact support.

11-19-2013, 06:36 PM
Bootiebabe, my apologies- I just double checked and the payment I'm waiting for is actually for the week of 11/10. I thought it was for the week of 11/3. It sounds like that check is supposed to get sent out next Friday. Although it sounds like there are a few people waiting to get paid and that does make me a little nervous. :(

My direct deposit has been late sometimes as much as 4 days. I know it sucks, but I have just started pretending I get paid a week later than I should. Learned that from shittier vanilla jobs and it transferred over to camming.

Most ladies around here only do certain things in exclusive. Like some will only doing finger masturbation or strip teasing in premium. In exclusive they will do anal, use toys, squirt, do fetish/roleplay, say a guys name, outfit change, etc. Premium = regular/tamed show, Exclusive= specialty/customized show.....but how you want to work/run your shows is really up to you. You have to find what works for you.
Butt plugs??.....pornhub, xvideos...I'm sure you could type it in on one of those porn sites an see how its used.

I shopped for the smallest dildo I could find (as thin as my finger) and the smallest anal beads. I thought guys would not like it because they are so small. I tell them I'm not used to it and only enjoy the small ones, and they seem happy with it. :)
