Hi all :-)
I had just got on, the room just starting to build and then... Ya'll know :-P

HELL TO THE NO
I would never do that... Doing goldshow at lower goals, at a low buy in and starting them even when you dont make to ALLREADY lower goal so you please the members they are bringing you? Even when it isnt enough to make your lower goal? They should be that good that they can garanty you a frigging full room and a full overbuying crwd and that means they dont have to tell you to lower your goals and to do the show no matter what since it brings the customer a better time. What exactly is a lower goal in their eyes? I mean a 100goldshow is a lower goal right? You will make 30 out of that or 35 depending on your% but is that really worth your efford and time to do those low goldshow for a crowd that is searching for CHEAP shows;
since she is asking you to do lowbuy-in goldshows for the crowd they will be sending you, you will be training your new crowd (and your allready excisting crowd and regs) that they dont have to spend much money on you and that they will get what they want even when they dont bring you to your goal (unless you give them less hardcore and less specific stuff inside those goldshow so they will still be yearning for more).
If I would do it, and I woudnt... I would only do lower goldshows with other things than hardcore stuff in them. Hopefully they will still buy in. No toys, maybe even no pussy. Lower goals should equeal less hard work on your body esp when you do them without hitting your goal. I would be highly demotivated to do them though!
I haven't seen it mentioned, but did anyone else get this message from support? Thoughts? I rarely do Gold Shows, so I doubt I do it.

SUBJECT: ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITY!
Hi,
The below message is from an affiliate of Streamate - we have agreed to forward this message from them to models they are interested in promoting directly. If this is of interest to you, please send an email to
[email protected] with your screen name and that you would like to participate in Tracy's campaign. If we do not hear from you, we will assume you are not interested and you will not be included in the promotion.
-Streamate Model Management
Forwarded Message:
My name is Tracy. My partners and I work with Streamate to drive new guests to models' rooms. We are starting a new promotion and would like to invite you to participate as one of our partner models. The main benefit you would receive is an increase in traffic to your room and additionally more paying regulars.
This is a chat based promotion and here is how it works. We place promotional ads (not your content) and encourage users to contact us via social media, email or SMS text. We then represent you during the chat. During the chat we share your pictures and once the user is interested we direct them to create an account and view you on cam. It's a simple process that can drive hundreds of new users to your cam room daily.
To take part in the project we would need the following:
- Willing to work 2+ hour 'shifts' of strictly Gold Shows. There is no set time you have to perform these shows however we just need a little advance notice as to when you're logging on to work so we can drive the guests to your room.
- Provide additional content for social media /landing pages. Selfies work great, short Vine style videos, webcam stills. Content can be non - nude. Just something that shows you off and gives the guest a hint to your personality.
- Performing the same Gold Show for the entire shift. For example: $5 for 10 minutes. This way we know what we can promote and the guest will always receive what was initially promised. Your Gold show details are up to you and we can promote most shows. However, Gold Shows with a lower initial Gold amount allows us to send more guests to your room.
- Agree to set lower Gold Show targets. This way the majority of Gold Shows will be performed without having to reset the pre-show timer. This provides a better experience for the guest initially, and more shows for them to join and tip.
- Agree to be represented by one of our agents during the initial chat. We only promote the show details you have outlined and try to give zero specifics regarding likes/dislikes. The main goal is to get the guest into your cam room so you can show off your personality and chat with the guest yourself. However we want this to be a seamless transition so the guest believes he was chatting with 'you' the entire time via text before he gets to your room. This provides a 'bond' and increases the chance he will become a regular in the future.
After viewing your Streamate profile we would love to invite you to participate in this new program. Please let
[email protected] know if you have any questions or would like to participate and we can have it set up immediately on our end.
Thanks and I looking forward to working with you.
Tracy
Ugh, tonight was one of my busiest nights, just setting up another gold show when it crashed. :( Luckily I had just gotten out of a pvt and it didn't crash during it...

Hey girls, quick question: I know many of you think that log in hours don't really matter but consistency does, bu still, my availability is only from 6-7 am in the morning to 9-10 pm (EST). I would have wake up at 4am in my time to catch the prime hours, which are 9pm-2am, as far as I know.
So do you think it'd worth it for me to spend my hours in that daily-morning times where most of the American men are working, or should I just push myself, start waking up early and catch the night shift?

Ugh I finally tried gold shows the other night because I was tipsy enough to feel like entertaining a crowd of retards but the first 3 didn't even make halfway to goal and then I must've done like 4 that did make it to at least 100, won't settle for less, but I don't think anyone tipped after I started the show either. In 3 hours of that noise I made half of what I would have from privates alone. Does it end up getting better once you've established yourself in gold shows or does it just have something to do with my placement? I'm going to try a 12 hour camathon today and see if that gets me in a better position.

Well I don't think me and sm get along. I hear yall talk about men throwing gold at you for no reason, nobody has thrown shit at me yet. I've had a few pvts but that's it. Earnings suck. I don't think I have the tits for it lol. (I'm flat) And yes ok I haven't been on that long, this is my first week with new acct but holy shit it's killing my mojo. Even with encoder, men come in/leave/come in/leave...repeat repeat. I feel defeated I think?

^^^BB, give it some time. Just make sure you look good, your space looks good, and your equipment is good. I've seen plenty of girls with small tits and fake tits get doted upon, lol. Guys are going to pop in and out regardless. Even the girls on page 1 in the 1st row have guys coming and going. Also, the guys that throw gold for no reason aren't that way with everyone and can be far and few in between. Yes, on occasion I get guys throwing gold at me just to please me but usually the ones that don't want anything for it are a very small percentage. Most of the guys throwing gold do it so you can do something for them, lol. Create a tip list or have gold shows enabled and you'll see guys throwing gold at you too...for a price ;)
JackAlexander

Krotneykay is right about everything she said, you have to give it time.
Don't have tits? Not all guys care about tits.
What else ya got, sell that! Got a dirty mouth? Do you have RP skills? Have a sex specialty or persona (domme or sweet little girl) ? Got a tush, even if it is small? Got pretty eyes? Ya gotta have something to offer, work what cha got. I feel like I would do better if larger tits (I am a B cup) but I don't, so I use everything else I got. Sell, sell, sell always be selling, even if no one is in your room. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9FCOAEPHHM My lord I think most of my customers are closet gay who probably wish I didn't have boobs, just my strap-on LOL.
you are poisoning your confidence with those thoughts. You believe you need tits to make money. Turn your thoughts around and your bank account should improve.

I think you should do what works best with your schedule. Why do you think the best time is 9pm-2am? There are tons of models online at night, mostly because that's when they are able to work not necessarily because it's the best shift. Also since there are so many models on at that time frame, your placement is going to be further down than when you're on the day shift because so many models are online. Just something to think about.
If I could work during the day I totally would. I only work the 9pm-2am shift because I have to wait until my kids are in bed. Just do what works for you. Consistency is definitely going to be better because then your regulars know when to find you.

And I DO have pretty blue eyes, men compliment my blonde hair all the time, my figure, my accent, my smile. If compliments paid my bills, I'd have them all paid for life already and be a gazillionaire on top of that. I just think the few days added up, and my earnings are really getting inside my head. Well, LACK of earnings lol. Thanks girls for listening and helping me get my head straight.

The static biopic honestly has saved my life so much! I'm not photogenic at all (I know, ironic...) unless I'm actively TRYING to take a good photo. It's great that you can draw custies in with a decent pic of you that you can be sure doesn't make you look like you've run face first into the back end of a cow.

I am sorry for the way u feel sweets, yes, best is to work with what u got, there is no other way, i also think and feel i could do a lot more if i had some proper tits. I consider that average looking cam models are not going to make the money a girl with amazing assets will (very beautiful face, amazing tits or ass, so on). I seen this with my colleagues when i started at a studio 13 years ago (worked there 4 months only then independent at home), the ones who had amazing features were making great money, average looking not that much. I consider myself to be average looking with nothing spectacular to work with but i do my best to provide some fetishes, people interested in what i offer pay for my shows. Good luck!

I have big boobs, but they are just horrendous after having children :( Getting a lift is one of the first things on my to do list when I get the cash rolling! For me, it is not so much for camming, but something that really bothers me. I cannot agree with you more though on the working with what you got! Whether the OP buys some or not, you can't let insecurities get to you in this biz. This is a slow, painful lesson that I have learned that can kill your earnings. Sometimes it is more about the attitude and confidence.
AliceFun
08-26-2014, 05:25 PM
One thing i saw with an ex colleague of mine, we are in contact & talk now & then, she left the country. By nature she had no tits, her attitude on cam, confidence & earnings suffered, she felt not good camming like that, she even got insults about being flat, so on. After some good years she managed to get implants, believe me the whole her changed for good, her attitude, confidence, smile, everything changed, she even became a bit arrogant and guess what? Her earnings sky rocketed!! Of course she was looking amazing & she did her best to loose some weight too, all these helped her a lot and she became very popular. JUST from having new proper tits, see how important this one LITTLE detail is? If u feel like something is missing ur whole attitude and confidence suffers from it & u just dont have the courage to stand up & do what u'll do if u had that 'special' thing, that special asset that men love.
Another story with another friend, she god an amazing round hot booty, she earned soo much with just that ass, her fans are crazy about her ass especially cause she was looking very young and pretty and played the schoolgirl underage niche.
Even a lot of people here say 'looks dont matter, is important how...." this is true to a certain point but if u dont have the looks u cant work with the other things. Looks just by itself is not everything but looks AND the rest make success.
reversecowgirl
08-26-2014, 05:37 PM
^^ I agree fully but my issue is that I have an autoimmune disease, and I am most certain my body would fully reject implants, or I would've already bought some boobies. So I really do have to learn to love what I do or don't have, and work the fuck out of it. With a smile of course lol.

Big tits don't mean anything. I have D tits and even if I had smaller I wouldn't care. One of my good friends used to cam and is a porn star now and she has A tits and is always booked solid. The guys love her and no one cares if her tits are small. Rock what you have girl and be proud of your body.

We dont get money throwing at us for no reason - we get money throwing at us bec we hustle. There is no such thing as getting money without reason, maybe a few lucky times but most of the money, the big money comes from selling skills (at least for me it does).
Look at the top models on streamate, they dont sit around and do nothing, they talk they engage and they sell.
I wasnt making big bucks when I first started out, but when you stick to it and gain more experience andget your own hustle you will get more $.
Getting regulars and high spending custies dont come falling out of the sky, you need to be online and advertise yourself that way, let youreself be seen. Dont feel defeated you have just started out. There will always be guys poppin in and out your room, I am at top row and they still do that, its part of the job. It ahs nothing to do with you. They check your prices, maybe they are even shy, maybe they just wanted to see you brief in action and have no money to spend so they leave to come back another time (Which is so much betetr than the ones who stay and chat you up just to have a free convo). Dont let it bring you down, just see it as you are promoting youreself, and the more people saw you the better, even when it is for a sec. Keep your smile up and work on your campersonality. Money will follow in time

Does anyone know what the f. is wrong with placements right now? I check the page and couldn't see any of the popular girls on first page, and got excited "yey, i'll be on top rows". Then I logged in and found myself on 4th page, next to some "1st page" models... Is this about studios? How long does it take for it to be back to normal?
Edit: Okay I saw that this happens time to time because of an update? I'm still curious about when it's gonna be back to normal...
Edit 2: It was either about mozilla, or IP changing program cause when I checked it from chrome, everything seemed normal.

There has been a number of cyber attacks over the last few weeks that are increasing in severity. The main targets are SONY owned MMO's but also Data centers and Cable providers. Last week it was Cox Communications, this week it's Time Warner. Cox was local but the Time Warner thing is much bigger to the point where not only are their sites down but so are their phone lines. They are also starting to hit Comcast. The attacks are coming from China with assist from affiliates around the globe. Hardest hit areas are the St Louis area, Southern California, Seattle and Miami.
So as it affects us, there is a major spike (as much of 70%) increase in internet congestion which creates spontaneous lag and disconnects. The reason I came aware of it is because I play WoW and all of a sudden our latency spiked up to 8500ms (normal latency is about 52 ms) before the site finally up and crashed. There is a guy/group named Lizard Squad who is claiming he is responsible but after looking closer, the size and power of the attacks is more consistent with the use of supercomputers. China has the most powerful supercomputers in the world and this is just a small wink of what is yet to come IMHO.
So those of us who are complaining about our round trip time and other strange issues affecting placement and stream, this is why.
If you are familiar with IPViking, ( http://map.ipviking.com/ ) you can see what's happening there.

If you click right now, there is a MAJOR attack happening. I was looking at it earlier this morning and it wasn't quite so bad. What really irks me about this is the US is doing nothing to deflect or counter the attacks. I wonder if the US is even capable. How strange considering how we boast about having some of the leading tech experts.. NOT!

I see that...but what does it have to do with me personally getting disconnected and not others? The site is still working for others and it's still working fine on my other laptop. If the site was getting attacked it would be down everywhere, correct?
It's working fine for me again. Just a blip in my browser possibly. Not sure...hopefully it won't happen again.

^^ what works for me is to keep the gold show short and to guarantee the show regardless if you don't meet goal. I always make over my per minute rate so I don't feel bad at all about not meeting goal. $100 goal, 6 minute show with $4 buy in. My per minute rate is $5.99. Guys do tip during the show as well. Plus because my show is short, the guys are horny as hell and they book me for pvt right after. Gold shows really do bring in more regulars and guys who normally would have skipped you give you a chance. Now I understand the magic of gold shows.
how long are u setting the timer for ?

this is probably why i had so many ppl on mfc and sm saying my feed was choppy and laggy both sound and visual last week. there were several minutes where sites that should load werent and my tablet apps were dropping (i play a lot of simulation games that wont run without a net connection - probably to prevent hacking from getting the good stuff or game currency but anyway...) i did also did have a bunch of malware and crap in my computer because i reformatted my computer and my CPU and ram % went WAY the fuck down compared to before . i need to stop trying to crack shit and just buy it lol

Wednesday I was on when Battle.net got hit. Twenty-two people out of twenty-five had their system crash. A bunch dropped offline all at once, then they started dropping off one by one. It was eerie! Kinda opened up my eyes a little bit as to how vulnerable we really are, especially because we as models and anyone else who needs the internet, depend on our connections for our income! I honestly never knew any of this existed before this. I mean, I've heard of, "cyber attacks" on the news but that was the first time it really had meaning. It makes me understand why my fps and round trip time are much slower. Seattle!
