Do you ladies make and upload albums etc to SM now that they enforced the whole ownership of your pics thing? Contemplating whether or not its worth it

Issabelle

Do you ladies make and upload albums etc to SM now that they enforced the whole ownership of your pics thing? Contemplating whether or not its worth it

No, for a couple of reasons. Most guys looking at them just want free wank material. SM doesn't deserve to own any of the pictures I worked hard to create on my time and my dime. The purpose of them is to give guys a 'preview' but that's also sort of the purpose of free chat and most of the dudes who see them are still just freeloaders asking for freebies. All in all, a big, fat FUCK NO. Ahem, excuse my language there ladies.

Re: ratings issue you posted earlier, did you check your rating history? I'm surprised you got bumped to a 4-star overall, seriously. I never have trouble keeping mine up even if I only really do gold shows. If a couple of guys rated you a 1-star, you can petition to have it removed by support and get your rating/placement right back up. Support has done it for me before. Also, when you check your recent earnings tab on SM after shows (if you're like me, you check every single time you finish a show to see the money/make session notes about the guy), click on the day, then the name of the guy doing the show/amount you were paid, and the sessions tab will show a rating if he gave you one. Then if you get a crap rating, you'll know who did it and can justify why it shouldn't be there.

I feel you Genoveve! I only receive 5 stars, and it s so annoying to receive a 3 star because one member peeps into pvt and ask for pee or squirt. I ask my good regs to not forget to rate me so I always compensate.

I asked a few days ago for the block session, but they said it s not available at this time. Maybe they change the interface. I tend not to believe that they have something against me, because this site always treated me very well, and I never had any problems or penalties.

About the encoder: It s kinda difficult not to use it. I love to see myself bigger. Even if I split i use the encoder to see myself.

The 30 second abusers are killing me too. I get tons of them and a lot of times a guy will do it over and over again.
And these guys wonder why I ignore my chatroom....I have been conditioned to!

It's a good thing SM changed this to 40 seconds. Thank God for small miracles.

BritishBecky
06-18-2014, 04:04 PM
I agree, 40 seconds is much fairer for the guys who can't decide whether they really do want to see us having a great time. Finally SM is giving our customers what they want. Come spend 40 seconds guys!

06-18-2014, 04:11 PM
how does them getting 10 more seconds help us ? 30 second peepers will turn into 40 second peepers, AWESOME.

JaneBurgess
06-18-2014, 04:49 PM
Once you enter private you need to be charged from the first second. No one needs to get 30 seconds in private for free period. None of the other sites I work on give free time in a paid show. The assclowns abuse that by popping in and out during private shows.

So scheduled shows, and now we've got 40 second peepers? Faaantastic.

Did anyone else notice the flashing green dot for streamate's scheduled shows? I'm not a fan of this.

JaneBurgess
06-18-2014, 09:32 PM
I logged off once I surfed the site and a lot of performers were doing $0 Gold shows. I'm sorry but those shouldn't be allowed and cam performers shouldnt feel the need to have to do them. Plus it was glitch central on there. I thought customers were kidding until I was kicked off twice and people were getting kicked out of shows. Super annoyed that glitches are such a common occurrence now.

Has today been horrible for anyone else. so slow. I didnt want to give in by doing a show for under 100... and so i didnt even make a dollar today.. kept trying but literally today has been the worst day in a long time. wanted to know if anyone else was in the same boat

Well streamate.com isn't loading right for me so maybe others are having the same issues? I keep getting the "html" simple version of the site when I load, then it will be back to normal but I can't sign in...when I refresh it messes up again. I have no idea.

06-19-2014, 03:56 PM
ive been on for about 35 minutes and glitches are left and right. guys are coming in without the alert and right before i logged off i got a huge group of xxx left room
xxx left room} like that. so scary shit but i guess they working on it and it made more gltches. itds gonna be one of those weeks it seems like. hopefully it will get fixed soon

06-19-2014, 04:02 PM
I've been on for almost 30 minutes and have had 0 shows and only 3 people have even spoken to me. And I'm on the front page. Think I'm just gonna call it a day.

Tonight I had quite a few moments where there were 0 people in my room for several minutes. I'm used to having 15+ people in my room at any given time. I was also kicked off a few times. I think the site may be acting up.

JaneBurgess
06-19-2014, 07:24 PM
The site is glitching again. I was kicked off once and customers are being kicked out of shows again. The first show I did it didnt even show him in the private show, just showed him leave. Sigh

....Yeah from what it sounds like, I'd be better off spending my time getting my shit together to try another camsite to split with after this week. I think I'll try to take advantage of 'new girl' status on MFC (I deleted my account last year, hopefully they'll let me sign up again under a new performer name/e-mail) while I'm waiting for approvals on other sites to happen.

Thank God this is tax credit month.

Do you ladies think we could get any answers from support? I know Liz is often helpful with me, but would she be willing to give it to us straight? I feel like they must be noticing the struggle to get paying traffic as well.

Honestly? When there are this many glitches and issues lasting several weeks to a good month and this many girls are frustrated, I feel like it's almost petition/universal complaint time. Like, okay ladies, start a sub-thread/accept PMs from members who work the site and put together a list of complaints, how many get seconded, what support has/hasn't done, and send it to Liz. It's hard to argue with 150+ girls from SW saying they want to be able to make money again...

I wonder how many guys are actually booted from privates and experience glitches..it has to be way more than we would think, most guys won't bother to tell you at all. I do get some from time to time telling me stuff is wrong and it makes me wonder just how many guys this happens to, who would pay for shows but get frustrated and leave.

Honestly, I didn't even know about all of the glitches until I started reading in here. I figured those guys who come in and out of private for .001 seconds were just fucking around but I think more than likely they get booted. They are in/out so fast that it'd be impossible for them to see anything. I used to think all guys who left shows abruptly had hit their limit or had cum but now I know that's not the case. Sometimes they come back and say it kicked them out but I bet most don't bother.

A issue I've had for at least a month now is guys popping in and out of my room in a fraction of a second. It happens over and over. When they hover over my room it shows me live. When they click to enter immediately the page that says Im in a private appears? I have seen this for myself as well. Contacted support and was told to make sure my popup blocker was disabled. It got better when I did but still happens sometimes. Less than before but still happens. NOW what about the customers that try to enter and get bounced to the in a private page? I can't provide tech support for those who can't get in the room. So now when I do login SM I randomly say "If you cant get in the room disable your popup blocker. Reboot your computer blah blah blah. If using a tablet get a pc instead." So sad. I'm supposed to be a camgirl not IT support.

Am I the only one who only very rarely has a glitch? Site works fine for me 99% of the time and I cam a lot, with and without the encoder.

Maybe because you're not using the encoder?

The only glitches I get consistently are on the members end... members not being able to stay connected to private, etc.

Damn it must have glitched bad overnight. Logged into today and my profile was changed to one I used a long time ago. I had to redo the whole thing and hope they update it soon. I don't want a non fetish bio :(

Issabelle
06-20-2014, 06:34 PM
This is all just super weird. I was doing just fine with my voyeur shows or boob shows this afternoon and the guys had no problem coming in or staying. I got tipped. They talked. When I did a short shift, I got guys who stayed in and my exclusive and private notifications were working. It was all fine.

Then again, yesterday I was getting guys coming into my private during my 30 second redress periods and no notifications for half of my privates. I had guys getting kicked out early.

The Jekyl and Hyde thing is getting old.

Yeah, traffic has sucked big time tonight. I've only been on for almost 2 hours now and maybe under 30 people have been in my room at all, sometimes I can see that they've entered but there's no names in the box on the right.

I don't like this at all. I've done SO well on SM in the past week or so that I've been able to dedicate 4-5 hours of staying online and this just sucks. Probably will have to go back to the depths of MFC or even ImLive *shudders* to make anything above $7 tonight. :-/

06-21-2014, 06:24 AM
SM is frustrating me right now....went from making $50 a night (mon and tue) to making about $5 a night for the rest of the week...I see my regs coming into guest and leaving after 2 seconds...I wish support would let me know what is happening :(

06-21-2014, 06:47 AM
Omg soooo happy im not the only one. I had a kickass day monday and the rest of the week it was like pulling teeth to get shows. Ive had to put n about 2 hours extra each shift to make my goals and some days i had to wait half an hour between shows. Never happens to me but im relieved im not the only one!!!! Oh and couldnt keep ppl n my room to save my life, for the most part under 5 members :(

SimoneGray
06-21-2014, 06:57 AM
Yeah last night it was DEAD...made $6 in total for 4 hours work. Its so unusual for a friday evening, but I am hoping it will get better soon...thankfully I have another site to cam at so I can still make my weekly goal if SM won't play ball

Love it! It seems whenever I log on before 10 pm the first hour and a half is pretty slow & full of beggars. Once 11pm to 2am rolls around, I've been banking.. I think it's all about sticking it out and not spending all night chatting with the same guys, no matter how many pvts I had with them "awhile back".

I stuck it out last night and ended up having back to back pvts from not only a few regs but some random guys as well. Those wonderful "Hey, do you have ____? Great, let's go!" kind of dudes. Love em.

The only think I don't like consistently on SM is the fact that I make less when I try to wear more clothes. I feel I make more during my prime hours when I'm laying around in a thong and a bra, I've tried wearing little tank tops and I tend to make less money with them on. Ugh, I like the boost in income but I hate to give the freeloaders and beggars any kind of free show. :-/

im so confused and im not making money. my first night on streamate i made a whopping $7! ALOT of guys would come in and leave. i was just sitting there staring at the camera because i wasnt sure what to do. also, what is the diffrence between a private and paid chat? i had guys cominng into my paid chat but they kept asking to see stuff but i wasnt sure if they were paying or what? they got frustrated and left lol.

Paid chat IS private otherwise known as Premium unless they are going to Exclusive in that case you will get a notification that states they are going to exclusive, so YES! if you were in paid chat you were getting paid.

can anyone explain the whole gold thing to me? i know i cant do gold shows for whatever reason but i had 2 guys come in my room and say they would tip me x amount of gold for x amount of minutes. i never saw any money go into my account and the guys were being really pushy so i just blocked them. they claim the money comes after i do what they say but that just didnt sound right. is this normal or was i being scammed?

^^^Yes, you were being scammed. Once you have goldshows enabled, you will see the amounts pop up on the screen and you won't see your full amount until after the show is done. However, guys can tip you gold anytime and you will see that amount on your screen. Do not do ANYTHING worth doing (even standing up if you don't wish to) without them tipping you gold FIRST. The money comes first, and then you do what they want. Good luck. :)

How I combat this is I put the camera close up on my face. I have pics on my profile and my profile pic shows my body, so if customers want to see anything but my face they have to pay for it. Idk if this would work for anyone else, but I found it helped my conversions rate not to show my body or outfit in free chat without at least a minimal tip. And this way I can wear basically whatever I want. I found that most paying sm customers don't give a lick what your wearing bc they just want you to take it off when you get pvt or exclusive. I think token sites are different, but sm guys are older and more wham bam. The guys desperate to see your body for free seem to be losers with no money.
