Yep, same here. Guess I'll get back online to work and hope the money shows up eventually. Kinda makes me nervous.
Edited to add: I'm also missing about 50 hearts/favorites in the switch. Just noticed that.

^^ Hopefully the site isn't being 'remodeled' or something...because that would be the worst to lose everything. Maybe they're just running maintenance?

My current theory on the new favorites set up is that it specifically says 'active,' which I'm assuming means they've actually paid before. Not necessarily paid me (that math doesn't work), but some model on the site. That's just my guess though.

My fav's didn't go down by much, but I think that may be because I am still fairly new.
My earnings are back so I feel much better

My favorites went down by 2000. O_o
Other than that, the new set up seems pretty nice!
Edit: I also seem to have lost a review and some blocked members, too. Looks like they're deleting info from inactive accounts.

07-29-2014, 04:03 PM
My favorites went down by at least 1400. I guess if they are inactive accounts it makes since to remove the favorites. I do like the new dashboard design. It seems to be clean and easy to use.

how can I figure out how much $ will be taken out of what I earned on streamate? I did my first show last night for like an hour or 2 and made $75. Will I be getting that full amount?

Yes, you get the full amount that it shows under "earned". That is your % of what was made.

i don't mind it when the quick, coward trolls get away. It just makes it so much more satisfying when i do finally get to ban them.
I swear, it is like a mental orgasm. So i am willing to wait because they are pathetic trolls with no life that relies on me for its entertainment. They always come back.

Oooookay, it wasn't just me whose favourites when down.
I was really excited that Streamate would actually get it right for once and actually let the models know during/after that a major change was coming/happening.
That's what I get for keeping hope alive. LOL!

Heye everyone,
I just had a scammer in my room, but thank to KortneyK (hope I write youre name proper, doing it out of my head), I saw what he was doing
Just wanting to warn all of you so noone gets scammed:
He logs on with a username
For example
John
and than when being online for a short while he log in with another one:
John243
and he keeps moving around from account to other account very fast, and tries to keep within the 30seconds with it
I called him out on his scamming, and told him we are aware of him (all the girls on the site) and if he tries to pull it again with anyone he will get banned. He stayed after I did so, and payed me a fair amount

I like the new design. My favorites dropped 2,000 also. Nice to know. I like the 'green' lettering, because it makes me think that when I hit it, I'm going to be making money.
I like how we can see our weekly earnings thus far for the week, as soon as we log in.
I just wish they would have given us a heads up, when they are changing things. A quick e-mail would have been nice.
Logged back in after my break yesterday, and saw no earnings, and had a minor coronary! If it wasn't for SW, I wouldn't have know what was going on, and thought I was the only one.

shit man i've barely made $6 the past half hour because this shitty connection. i thought it was my internet's fault, had to check and see if anyone else was having problems. my screen gets blurry and pixelated before it tells me i lost the connect. is it even worth trying to log on right now lol
Alylondon

It was like this for me yesterday. I was at my wits end wondering why hardly anyone was saying annnnything and I was having trouble getting my goals going. I was trying not to look like a sourpuss about it but when SM does site updates I tend to get loveless asspounding.
Monday was POPPIN, but then around 8-9ish pm EST it's like everyone fell off a cliff.
I had posed the question of glitching and got several people telling me two things: Either my screen was white and blank or it'd be in and out of focus.
Yeah monday I was banking. Remember when porn used to be on tv you can hear them but the screen was hazy and had lines going threw thats how my stream looked like for the first 15 secs and then it straightened out. But of course the guys wouldn't stay long enough so yesterday was a bunch of in and outs in both my shifts.
It better be fixed by tomorrow!

the thing I do not like about the rating analysis is that it doesn't take into account when it's a slow time or a fast /good time.. So it's not completely accurate....

Just got word back from SM about payments...apparently they are on a 3 week delay, here is the message:
Thank you for your message! I can confirm you have received payment on Jul 23, 2014.
I also confirm your rates are $4.99. Please be sure to wait 24 hours for changes to occur.
Payments are on a three week delay. The payment week runs Sunday to Saturday.
This week we are paying out for the week ending on: July 12
Checks are sent on Thursdays every week, Payoneer and wires are sent on Fridays.
Please note:
Checks have a minimum of $20 to be issued
Payoneer has a minimum of $100 to be issued
Wires have a minimum of $240 to be issued
Since I'm in Canada and I have the cheque option because Payoneer is taking awhile, I guess I won't be cashing my 3rd week earnings until the second week of August and so forth provided the mail arrives promptly. Is this normal?
You might be able to ask to be put on a one week delay. I'm on a one week delay and a lot of others are too... for instance this Friday they will pay me for the week that ended on July 26, not July 12.
I have heard the 3 week delay is standard for non US performers, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I can't imagine how long standard mail will take to arrive in Canada... :-/
Never mind, I just saw you are signing up with Katy's instant pay. I should read all posts before replying! :)

Yesterday was actually decent for me, except I noticed A LOT of guys not being able to be stay connected to private chat. I know they were not peepers because they would come in and leave immediately, so quickly you know they didn't even get the cam to load. This was happening a lot before, then for a while there it was almost never happening, but last night omg it was frustrating. I wonder how much more I would have made if people could have actually stayed IN private chat.

screen gets blurry and pixelated
its your lighting, not your internet,
do not wear shiny clothes, or metallic
make sure you have enough light.

While this is true...it can also be your internet. I've been having issues with my upload speed dropping on my internet lately...when it drops my bitrate drops, that causes my image to become extremely pixelated and blurry. Even though my download speeds are fine, when my upload speeds drop and bitrate drops this happens. So it could be a number of things.

When I did my first show the other night I didn't put on HD since I didn't have any makeup on.
I still made $, is it bad to not be in he all the time?
Like right now I want to came for a couple of hours but I don't want to put on makeup so I was thinking of doing that again.
It's not a lazy thing it's a time situation. I only have a little over an hour and I would rather get right to work then waste half the time I have doing makeup.
Especially since my cam personality is down to earth and relaxed. A casual sexy appearance.

Yep, I know it's the site when multiple people are coming in and out of gold shows. They can't ALL have internet problems! If they tell me they have internet problems, I tell them it's the site and to report it to support.

Damn sm sucks anymore. I'm average sometimes less than a third of what I used to make. :(
I can barely get myself to log in to SM anymore. I'm noticing certain girls literally have the guys trained to not pay. If I don't laugh at them I will cry uncontrollably! For the life of me I just don't understand the whole dancing around, playing with tits, spitting on tits, upshots on tits, upshots on pussies, role playing and sex talk in free chat, just to get a guy to throw a whole $1 in on a failed $100 goal. The look of frustration of the faces of these girls sitting there asking the guys why they won't pay, is priceless. Literally priceless, as in, why would the guys pay!
I wish these girls realized I am close to 50. I don't have half the body they do and haven't inserted a damn thing in any hole for close to 2 years, haven't taken my top off in over 2 years and I pretty much decline exclusive show requests on a regular basis. I don't do a whole lot and somehow still manage to make $200 to $500 on my scheduled shifts. Thank God I have a personality because it's the only thing I have left to sell at this rate. Don't get me wrong, the $200 to $500 does not come easy. These girls have made the stress level in free chat through the roof. I have to take breaks before I lose it on the silent losers and beggars. Once a failed countdown is over they always seem to end up in MY guest chat thinking I'm going to somehow finish em off. Pfft. Shaking my head and banning!
Airrrie2
07-30-2014, 08:12 PM
Lately I have noticed the girls who don't hustle in guest chat are the ones who make their goals quicker. I saw one girl in a hoodie. I saw another girl eating chicken soup in a t-shirt and jammie bottoms. Both made their goal. Then I flip over to another girl who has her wares all in the cam and laughably, she's all up in the cam asking the guys what she needs to do to get them to pay. One guy even (or maybe it was another model, who knows) told her to get dressed and relax a bit. As soon as she did, all of a sudden she got a shit ton of tips.

07-30-2014, 08:15 PM
My favorite is when the cheap fuck who logs in and out of gold show countdown after gold show countdown but never pays asks me when my top is coming off. That's an insta ban right there. I don't put up with that crap.

I just looked at that site and yeah, not a good site. I saw it once a year or so ago and think it's so wrong. The site isn't really free unless you don't want a show and only lurk in free chat. Does Streamate own that site or an affiliate?
It's weird that Flirt4Free is ranked higher than Streamate and has a lot more traffic. It's like hell has frozen over and I don't like it.

has anyone else noticed sm has a bunch of new customers? I've had a lot of guys this week tell me they're new to sm and they actually spent money. One guy told me he saw my pic in an ad somewhere so he joined kinda scary bc someone I know might see. Traffic isn't anything out of the ordinary but wherever they're getting these new customers from they should keep it up. It seems like most people who have gone to pvt with me is either a regular or someone who is entirely new to sm.

This gives me hope. I am shit at SM for whatever reason, but I have some money lurking in there that is below my payout, I plan to log in this weekend and just fucking sit there until I make the $8 more to pay out and give up on SM. Maybe the new guys will like me more than the old ones...
