I'm supposed to send someone 50+ pictures on SM. I was planning on using cam redeem but I guess that's not a thing that I can do anymore o_o
SM ladiess, how to do this without SM-gods smiting me?
I tried mediashare but the site is different than I remember and I have no idea what I'm doing
Thanks <3
I believe if you search for project maenad on here you will find something :)

What is the best way of responding to guys who ask me to stand up in guest chat? I say "For a tip" or "Come paid and Ill do anything you ask" but they just leave. What do you girls say?

You either stand and twirl for free in hopes of them spending, or you politely ask for a tip and remain seated.
Oh one more...just act like you didn't hear them and talk to someone more interesting i.e. yourself until he obliges.

Here's some of my tips for guys who give out info:
- if they send a mail message giving you their info, do with it what you please but do not reply simply delete. I do this all the time and I get tons if emails, skypes, phone numbers, etc sent to me. Never had an issue.
- if someone asks in chat if you use paypal, Skype, snapchat, etc. simply say or type "no I do not use that". Do not say "no I don't use Skype" because I have been given warnings just for using the name of another service and not even giving my info. I think they have filters that catch key words. So simply say I don't use that.
- paypal is always a bad idea for camming
- twitter isn't pointless because you can gain new customers and get extra money by referring people to the site. I make a nice chunk of money each week simply from twitter and cammodels referrals. You can't give it to people on SM but it's still very useful.
- usually you get a warning first for exchanging info unless it was outright blatant exchanging on your part. So... They must have felt like you did exchange. Also be aware people from SM read this forum and if your screen name here matches your screen name on SM and you asked here how to exchange info without being caught, you may have put yourself on their radar.
Ok, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks :)

Say "Fuck you ,pay me." or you can use an automated text that say" Tip $3 if you would like to see me stand :) ".I do either one based on my mood.LOL

I usually say something to them like "Hi -name- how are you tonight?" and usually they leave. If they respond and ask again I tell them I'd gladly stand up and show them what they want for a tip.

I tell them I'll stand when we're in private. I never stand in free chat because I don't wear panties. I noticed the ones that always ask you to ask, almost never take you private.

I say it is x amount of gold hon... that's it. If they don't pay they never were going to , to begin with. Sometimes I add I would love to for 3 gold ..( for instance)

I have an automatic message that I push that says "I'd love to stand and do your requests, please tip first. $7 Gold to stand, $5 for belly/feet/tongue, etc" or something like that. Usually 1/5 will actually tip. Sometimes they will even tip without saying anything because those are the guys who actually read my room topic. I put $7 Gold to stand in there too.

So SM has a daily limit for new members? FUCK! I was in a private fully clothed with someone for 30 minutes then they were gone, and messaged me to say they got cut off. Is that true? I was hoping to string him along for another 30 minute! Dammit

I don't believe it's just new members. Most members have a spending cap (I think they assign it themselves after a certain time?) and can't spend more than that in one day. I'm assuming new members have one because of charge backs.

I used VPN and it put my SM profile to Italy. Since then, I have a hard time to get back to US tag, even without VPN. Any tip on how to reset my profile back to US? I don't remember to have this problem when I was in the Netherlands and back to the US.
Have you emailed support? One time my country was showing as A1 (whatever that means). I emailed them and they told me it was ok, that I am showing as US. A couple weeks later it showed US on my profile.

Is there a rule about not leaving cam on SM? I gave a break and now my "hours online" is zero.. And it's so painful to work when I'm on 5th page, with no traffic. I was just planning to leave it open when I'm going to bed to get those hours.. Would I be in trouble?

You do get a higher percentage if you bring in more traffic. Also not hitting goal doesn't mean much. If you can flip a gold show a couple times an hour it really does add up. And people still tip once in they are in the show. Things aren't always what they seem.

The problem with that is putting in the hours but not making money won't move you off page 5. You have to be making money in the time you're online to move up, so just leaving the cam on for hours without making money could just put you back further.

I really don't get how top earning girls get by just doing gold shows. I've watched girls doing their hustle for gold shows and they rarely meet their goal and they do the show anyway. How is it possible they are able to rake in $2K-$3K a week just doing gold shows? I don't understand. The fact that they are only taking 35% of the gold just furthers my disbelief. These girls must be taking in a higher percentage. That's the only way I can fathom the math in my head.
These girls don't get a higher percentage. Everyone can get a higher percentage by bringing their own traffic with cammodels sign ups, but they don't get a higher percentage for any other reason.
Doing gold shows adds up WAY fast. I use to do pretty much only gold shows and even now I'm back to doing at least 4 per night. Doing show after show adds up a lot quicker than sitting in free waiting on guys to go private, even if you don't make the goal. Also you have to keep in mind that A LOT of guys wait to join until after the show starts. It's stupid but soooo many sit and wait to put in. So even if you see a model start a show when she's far from the goal, she's making more than you're seeing.
For me I will only start once I reach $50. That guarantees me $17.50 for my standard show which takes from the start of the count down to the end of the show 15-16 minutes. If I only made just that $50 with no other joins and I did show after show that's $70 in just over one hour easily. But, when I start at $50 I always get up to at least $75 to $100 from guys joining after I start. So if I reach $75 and do 4 shows in just over an hour that's $105 that hour. If I reach $100 over 4 shows in an hour that's $140 that hour. And reaching $100 after the show starts is not hard to accomplish with high placement. Also some guys just tip during the show to be nice or one will drop a big tip to impress.
It all adds up in ways you just can't see from an outside observer. Best to just not try to figure out what others are making. :)

I feel you but I don't take it personally because these are broke losers that do it to other girls too. The guys that have taken me private, none of them have asked me to stand before private.

Yup. And I just LOVE when you ask for a tip and you get those guys that write out a message to make it seem like they tipped you gold. Lol! It's so obvious. I don't think they realize that a sound plays when we receive gold and the message looks completely different than when they write it out. As soon as they do that I kick their cheap asses out of my room. Tuh. We're not stupid.
I've also had guys do that for no reason; like they didn't ask me to do anything they just come in my room and type out a message saying they "gave" me 10 gold or something. I don't see the point in doing that, but just to be a total D Bag. Smh.

But in the My Ranking page it only shows the total online time of the last month and says around 90 is good. So I thought just leaving cam online would be fine...
Though it'd be wierd for the visitors and they'd never stop by again.

Yah 90 or better is "excellent" I think. But it also says having "excellent" in all categories won't guarantee any placement. Also you have to consider the "daily time online" page, where it tells your percentage in paid. I always see a bump in placement when my percentage in paid goes up. If you're just online without making any money, the percentage in paid is going to be really low. I think the amount of money you're making in the time online is what matters most, from my experience on the site.
My time online has been "poor" for the last several months yet I've still maintained being placed on the first half of the 1st page even with "poor" online time. At 58 hours online I'm still showing "poor" lol but my placement jumped a lot in the last two weeks from making more money.

These girls must be taking in a higher percentage. That's the only way I can fathom the math in my head.
$2k-3k a week is only $400-500, 5-6 days per week. I consider GS just like privates in terms of length and trying to get guys to join. If a gs host does 12-15, $100 GS per day, she's making $400-500. If you think about it, it's not that many if you work 40 hours a week or more which several girls do. Let's say you do 4 GS per shift 2 hour shift. That's $140 your cut. Take a break, come back and do 4 hours and you complete 5 gs successfully, then you break again and do another 3 hour shift and 2-5 more back to back GS. BAM! $400-500 your cut and only 9 hours has gone by. The most GS I've seen last anywhere from 5-9 min so they're not really physically wearing themselves out all that much. It can be done, it's just a hustle. I've noticed that some girls will do GS and pvts/excl and you also don't count the extra money she has made once the show has started. Some girls even keep their cams on at night for a voyeur show and wake up to a few dollars as well. You don't see them on the front page because GS are moved but their percentage is always high because of them.
