I technically offer phone for placement purposes but tell everyone I lost my phone if they ask, lol.

For some reason, I'm totally OK with seeing those guys totally naked and staring at me, but the idea of hearing a horny stranger's voice creeps me out.

Introvert problems, I guess.

well, now if the guy has the micro set up you can listen to them anyway... I ALWAYS mute it. Specially bc I don't fucking live alone, and since we're in lyingland... "It's JUST not working sweetie, dunno why..... lalalal im just a dumb and stupid PAY ME NOW"

They're horny enough to just not give a damn.

Yesss, so I'm not the only one that does this!!!

Also, it creeps out the other custies in group pvts anyway, so I feel like it's extra justified. I just wish we had that option to mute them on SM's interface instead of using the mute button on our computers, because there have been a few times the pvt has ended and I haven't realized it due to the lack of a sound cue.

i meant i mute the micro of the guy... and i do it through SM interface. Anyway, now that you've said it, sometimes SM mutes the sound of a guy leaving the pvt just--- randomly, and it leaves me alone doing the naked monkey in front of a group of strangers FOR FREE. Fuck you Streamate.

aww, you're welcome aqua i will enjoy your brownies, I fucking need'em! :D

the first time i got a C2C and started hearing a horny disgusting mumbling something from my speakers i actumaticly look everywhere to turn that fucking noise off ! AGH. I do the same with sypke shows UNLESS the guy wants to give instructions and he's polite and respectful. Bleargh. Otherwise "oops, not worrking ,srry!" <-- while i'm dancing to Rihanna from what seems to be my integrated laptop speakers haha.

okay so on sm this guy keeps tipping gold in free to see me play with my tits instead of taking me into exclusive or party. Is this good or bad?

Kaii
05-09-2014, 07:33 PM
it depends of how much gold he's tipping... *Usually* tips are for flashing but if he's paying more than he would in a pvt session... It's up to you, sweetie.

So he's tipping in public chat, meanwhile everyone else is getting a free show and not spending their money on you. Make them go private if they want more than a flash. At least if you want to maximize profits.

So, since selling panties won't work with SM... what about raffling off stuff in gold shows? Like, custom video, custom photo set, pair of panties/socks etc in the mail to the highest tipper? Can that work? I apologize if this is a newb question, I didn't find anything useful online.

Yes, sometimes the SM sound of the guy leaving private doesn't work, but more often the muting the sound of cam2cam doesn't work! I don't allow cams except in exclusive (I ignore them) and hate when they auto open and then you hear sound even with it muted. Annoying!

panties and socks would require u getting their address not kosher for TOS

you will get a far better answer from support or who you signed under. They will make it clear. The rules can be different for each model. sometimes you can, sometimes you can not .. depends on who you are and who you deal with.

I was popping in to say maybe some models have not experienced the bad side of being watched. I have been stalked by models that lurk.
People go by experience and that is mine. From day 1. It killed off maybe a year ago for the most. :)

Yes I know all about this. Have had my chatroom and social media stalked. I've had relatives who are also in the biz contacted and harassed. It can get out of hand. But then there are those who really seem to have no respect for boundaries or are clueless to proper etiquette. Example: Entering into a cammers room and bringing attention to themselves. I'm a relatively friendly person but if our first contact is in my cam room I'm gonna have to ban you. I'm not sure if this is intentional or what? So maybe those who haven't been "hunted" don't understand the need for boundaries.

On a sidenote I see that SM has made the categories visible without having to select them. Now if they could do that while in a camroom instead of having to go back to the home page that would be awesome.

When guys check fees on SM do they need to leave the chat room or can stay there in members list & look prices up? Cause some leave my room and return making comments on fees and some just comment without leaving my room at all. What u reckon pls? No member account here to look myself things up. Ty ladies!

In my browser there still in a drop down that comes up when I click categories should I clear my cookies and catch in chrome? so they put the niches back on the left side of the screen?

I know this tempting but what i cant figure out is why some of them ask ME about MY show prices, are prices not visible directly in my room when they ask me this? Cause i often tell them "try to take me private & u'll see all my fees listed there" so i assume they need to click on the 'Join my private show' button under my video to see the fees and when they do they leave my room and return but not all of them, some stay connected to my room and see prices without disconnecting from my room. Ty!

I know what you're asking and I've experienced both situations with customers before as well. On my personal member account however, I can view the prices without leaving the chat room. I'm really not sure why some guys exit the room and come back commenting on price. One guess is because their cards aren't active or working and when they click to go private it boots them out giving them a notification to update their payment info. But that's just a guess from different experiences with custies.

You cant sell anything that requires you to get their personal information. So no socks, panties or any other clothing items. You could do a custom video or pic set but it has to be sent to them via Streamate. It's actually listed in rules on the site, I think in the Code of Conduct.

That actually happens a lot more than I thought. I just saw two performers bitching at each other via social media. One accused the other of stealing show ideas and stalking. I just don't watch anyone on cam anymore, even friends. It seems to lead to drama in so many cases and it's not worth it.

Thank u, this is what i needed to hear, it makes sense! Some guys say 'oh but i dont have a working card, is a card i used to register with to prove age, cant use it to buy shows or tip', i was baffled to learn that as i had the impression every guy on SM is able to buy shows or tip, looks like not, some use their 'ghost cards' just to be able to chat and bother us w.o actually being able to pay. Bummer!

I am not working on SM currently, but I noticed as well some guys could see my prices and some had to leave. I also noticed some guys could buy shows directly and some had to leave and "buy gold". I thought first these gold buyers are bullshitting me but when they became regulars and we played the same procedure every time (they left for 5 mins, came back and bought a show), I understood some of these guys must have different billing methods. Actually most of these price checkers and gold buyers were from Europe. Maybe this alters the information they get to see?

I keep getting a white page that says "502 - Bad Gateway" when going to streamate.com... anyone else? Not sure what this error means.

It sits there forever trying to load and then gives that error. I refresh and the same thing. After about 3 refreshes it loads but very slowly, then I click another page on the site and it gives the error again...?

It sits there forever trying to load and then gives that error. I refresh and the same thing. After about 3 refreshes it loads but very slowly, then I click another page on the site and it gives the error again...?

It was a little slow, but it loaded for me just now.

Edit: I refreshed it and the 502 bad gateway came up.

^^ sm is loading incredibly slow for me, and I've noticed that the placement in the niche categories haven't moved at all in the past 30 minutes. when I click on the first girl, it even says she's offline. I think sm is just being wonky today.

^^Yeah, there's something def wrong.
I was busy, with not only a packed chat room, but in prvt.s or exclusives the entire time... for 2 hours straight. Just now, in the past half hr., it either won't load correctly, or custies were telling me it was lagging, and my room went down to 1-2 people who logged out as quickly as they came in. Boo!
Too bad, because there are a lot of mommas boys on today, that want to spend.

That actually happens a lot more than I thought. I just saw two performers bitching at each other via social media. One accused the other of stealing show ideas and stalking. I just don't watch anyone on cam anymore, even friends. It seems to lead to drama in so many cases and it's not worth it.

That's really embarrassing. I don't understand why someone would care so much. Even caring about stolen ideas and personas is pointless because what can you do? All you can do is smile at the fact that your ideas and concepts are so good that other people want to adopt them. And then laugh at the fact that you will always make more money than them because you're innovative and you know not to share your other, bigger money-making tips with them in the future.



I find that it is not so much the watching, it's that people can't seem to keep shit INSIDE. "Saw someone do something I don't like? Gonna bitch about it on twitter where everyone can see how mad I am" Instead of keeping it private/moving on.

I really don't understand how anyone can't expect drama when they post shit. I just don't! If they just didn't post shit then nothing would get started. It's amazing how that works!

I agree! I have never in my life posted about drama, put-downs, other girls in general, or any sort of negativity on twitter or any social media. No one wants to read that. No one wants to be apart of that. No customer wants to pay someone who is engaging in the same negativity that they (our customers) are trying to escape from in their own daily lives already! Logic. People who are negative will end up having their customers secretly leave them for someone who is positive. People like to be around people that make them feel good.

That happened to me last week, but only with Chrome. It might be an extension or add-on you have with that browser. I'd try a different browser than the one you were using if you haven't already.

Yeah, my custies can't even get into privates 90 percent of the time, they click and automatically get kicked from my room. I've been getting a lot of comments that the site's fucked up. Turning this issue into an opportunity and getting other shit done instead so I can cam when I'll make a better hourly.

This evening Streamate was being an absolute asshole. I was pixelating and freezing in a block session, told him I'd be right back. I restated my computer, my modem, checked speedtest. Logged back on and he was in my freechat but it was still happening, bitrate going crazy. Restarted encoder again. Same shit. Guys in my room were saying that rooms were loading slowly/not loading/pixelating/in general that the site was being a spaz. My feed went back to normal and I was waiting on the block guy. Gave up waiting and went into a block with a reg and it bloody started happening again! Then after I restarted everything it was taking a while to log into the model admin, circle was spinning. Got back into the exclusive and thank fuck all was ok! Logged off after that!

Regs understand but I feel bad for the first guy. He got 2 minutes into his block session, which wasn't good for me either!

502 error? 500 codes are usually all server side errors.......

The tl;dr - Streamate probably broke their shit somewhere

One guy complained of freezing too last night in exclusive. Another had other complaints about my image going blank, but they seemed to get fixed whenever he refreshed his browser so idk if it was him or me or the site.

I was only just a toddler in 1984. I promise I won't complain. Please, please, please just send me some paying traffic! Is that too much to ask?!

Since I know all about banging on TVs, aluminum foil and making sure someone stands to hold the antenna just right, I AM PLAYING UP THE MILF and its paying off. ;)
seriously, I attract mommy custis and that is A~OK by me. Love a kink mind

;) When I play the daughter role and he turns on his cam , the custi always looks like he walked out of a mafia movie with his old ass. lol

Work each kink while you can in the safety of "rules" cough and make that $$$

I actually enjoy incest (as a fantasy only- the dirtier the better. I think I love the seduction and 'so wrong-it's-right' aspect) and guys LOVE to play. Especially since it's one of the more obscure genres out there when it comes to 'amateur' porn. They just eat it up and always rate me 5 stars. I don't do underage stuff though- that's too far.

Sorry if I missed this, but has anyone else had an issue with the break button? I've hit it several times, only to return with my chat window totally open. I have no idea what's going on.
