From what I see there is No hold on payment, but they do give the option to start a hold . I messaged as we'll but not about the hold but when I should expect it.

i had my first hacker experience today on SM. the guy has been around for months and said he was a member of my pay site. asked me to a special show for him. i don't do external shows to my site. i simply don't. a few days ago he started ramping it up and acted like he was going to buy a show. as if i didnt know he was a hacker. his text appears different as you ladies know, as if he were a site member. i block men who watch me in free chat more than 3 times. they will never pay. 3 strikes, out. i play ball. he kept coming back. today he said "u will suffer", "'m not even hacking this site. i'm here legit". ok right.
he finally left when i told him his registration info and payment info is all his real info and that i am contacting authorities with his threats. he kept popping up under multiple names in my free chat at once. i blocked them all and got really tired of it. hes on a few different devices at once. probably mobile ones.
he went by many names.
what has anyone else done to stop the hackers from harassing in free chat? i highly recommend that no one ever does external shows if they can help it as thats where the hackers pretend to be pay site members and watch for free.

on the pay log next to each buyers name and show info is the rating. you have to look at that persons details from that day.
Hai girls i have a question, how can I find out who rated me 1 star at Streamate,
Thanks, I have the feeling that it was a peeper who rated me the 1 star so i would like to check it for sure,right now i cant see the names who rated me will it appear later or is not possible at all?
By the way i really want to say from my heart i'm grateful for this website and all the love i always have been feeling on this platform it has been a good help and inspiration.

Ur really going to have to learn to deal with the glitches and accept the fact that the glitches take forever to get fixed. ull only stress urslef out.
I know ur new but reporting in the thread every time u have a glitch and that u reported it and ur not getting a response and that its not fixed is nothing new . Solo already told u they dont care im telling u they dont care - please stop clogging up the thread . Reporting glitches is fine because then if we have the same issue we can say yes im getting it too but . But repeating making post that pretty much saying "Im having a glitch/glitches (not even saying what those glitches are might i add) i wrote to support and support hasn't dont anything !" is just annoying
Seriously? lol
I happen to think it's useful when people who WORK THE SITE post the glitches they are having. She has posted what her glitches are in the posts that I have seen. It helps to know if it's something that just I am experiencing or if others are as well.
What's not useful is being rude.

Does the 3 week hold even exist anymore? Last I heard, it doesn't exist anymore. But maybe that's just through Vanessa signups though.
Yah I'm pretty sure if you are in the US and you sign up now, you are automatically taken OFF the 3 week hold thing.

I dunno if that changed more recently then. I made my account with SM in March of this year and was on the 3 week hold until I moved to daily pay in late June. I saw in the payment info tab that I had the option to turn that hold on/off, but the button to start/stop the hold was greyed out for me. I never bothered to contact support to check into it--I thought it was a fraud prevention thing all models dealt with. Weird...

Can we get bad comments removed like bad ratings? I've never had a bad comment before, but some guy left one because I don't do anal, something which is clearly stated on my profile.

Should be able to. Email support and cross you fingers. They shouldn't argue if the comment is 'bitch wouldn't fuck herself in the ass! Rip OFFFFF!' and your profile says 'No Anal Dipshits.'

I had no idea i am clogging up the threat.So excuse me!It was not my intention to post nonsense posts and annoy the people here.The glitches has nothing to do with the fact i am "new".I have been on SM since 2012 and know pretty well that they used to fix the glitches on their end for max a week.Also can't handle them if they are not on my end.Show me one post where i didn't point exactly what the glitches are.

My checks are still on 3 week holds.. I don't want to jinx anything.. not to mention when I cant work or money is coming in slowly.. it's helpful to know I have 3 weeks of earnings coming my way..

I was just chatting with a model who's online now and had a reg tell her the same thing.
ETA I was able to log into my custie account through Cammodel.com page as well as through the main SM page. The model rooms were loading and the gold button worked. Hopefully it's a temporary glitch only affecting some.

You said you get paid by a check, so I am not sure how long that takes. I know via Payoneer we are paid every Friday, so I am assuming checks are mailed out weekly as well.

i think the checks are mailed out on thursdays and most ppl get them like monday tuesday ish so u would get ur check about a week and half after the pay week of whats in the check ended if that makes sense since the payoneer loads on friday are from the week before so 6 days after the week that money is from ended

A new and powerful glitch for me: I can't read what members in guest chat type to me until they log off:-\.
SarahTime
10-06-2014, 07:51 PM
It's still super glitchy for me.... people keep getting kicked or I'm not being alerted that they entered private, only that they left.
Also, wtf is up with this but lately it's like I cannot get a damn show to go OVER the 3 minute mark!!! It's like everyone leaves between 2.5-3 min. Even guys who are like doing their thing and clearly enjoying the show... they just leave right before 3 minutes. It's the weirdest thing. I'm making all my money off tons of 3 minute men!!!
This has to be some weird.... thing...? I get some guys that do stay longer of course but it's like suddenly... 3 min shows is what I'm getting. Which at 3 minutes I'm just now barely naked.

Same here. I barely do anything and they're gone, but I've been getting tons of them. On Saturday night, I had 20 men in private for less than 5 minutes apiece, which literally made me half of my money that night.

^^ So glad You ladies are bringing this up. I thought it was just me... Yep...For the past couple of weeks, even my #3,and #4's stay just under 3 minutes! i watch them on c2C, and They aren't even finished yet!!!
Is SM giving some kind of a crazy discount I wonder?
I've had to finally lower my rates, just to get a few longer shows. Boo, Hoo!:'(
SarahTime
10-06-2014, 09:19 PM
I started to wonder if maybe they have some kind of promo type thing going on... like $20 free for new accounts or something? I know other sites do that, like cams.com gives $15 free for new sign ups. Because 3 mins in private at my rate would be $18. I don't know. It's weird! Even more weird that I'm not the only one, really makes me think it's something like that...?
Glamourmilf
10-06-2014, 10:14 PM
^^Well, It's def. not for only new accounts, because like I mentioned, my longtime regs are doing it.
My only 45 min. custie was new at my higher rate last week. He said that he just signed up, and I was his first model, because I was on page one. I tend to believe him, because I'm online so much, I hardly ever get new guys.:shrug:
I'm sooo confused!/:O

is it me or is sm really shitty lately i raised my rates i feel like I'm well worth it some of my regs don't mind paying my new rate i haven't had many new guys i can't figure out if its just slow or if its me w my higher price
Issabelle
10-06-2014, 11:27 PM
To be clear, I'm definitely having some tech issues. I'll have nights were guys complain that they can't enter private one after the other or they'll be about to go private and then just vanish (especially after tipping for me to show them an item of clothing for a RP, so they definitely INTEND to go private if they say so and tip too). I've had random DC's in shows, people getting kicked from my room at the same time they request an exclusive session... Stuff's definitely happening.
BUT!
I'm still making good money. Do I think it would be much more money without the glitches? Oh hell yes! I can't argue with $30-60 in an hour though. I've discovered that I need to do feed checks as soon as I start up to check for audio/lag issues and restart if they happen (twice this week alone). I've also found that just getting off for 30 minutes when it's slow and then starting up again has gotten me from 1-2 people in thirty minutes in my room to my regular 10-20 at any given time. It's been a persistence game to me.
Just, you know, trying to keep it positive. Tech issues? Definitely. Still making money? Definitely, as well.
SarahTime

Me to Issabelle, it's strange. There's so many glitches right now but when I logged off and saw my daily made and hourly average I was like seriously? Felt like pulling teeth but I still did amazing. Makes me wonder how much more I would be doing if guys could stay in private!
I always know it's a big issue when guys constantly come in and out of gold shows. That's a dead give away.

Over the past couple days searching my name on Streamate has turned up zero results, and when I ask clients what site they're viewing me from it's always some place other than Streamate. Traffic has been dead as well, so I'm wondering if I'm completely invisible on Streamate. I've emailed support twice, and both times got a 'how to improve your placement' form message that didn't remotely answer my question. Is anyone else experiencing this, and any idea what to do about it?

I know what you mean! I also wonder to myself how much more time I am having to put into actually being on cam to make up for all the time I keep losing to the glitches.
(The reason I personally wonder this because my physical energy is limited which makes it harder to stay on cam for me.)

Here is an odd question for all the Streamate girls:
I was perving a top girl from North America online today and she was telling her custies that she is moving to camming at night because she has been talking to other girls who work in the morning and they have all noticed there are more glitches in the morning. O.O
So......I figured I'd ask all of you lovely ladies, what do you work the morning or late shift (USA Time Zone) and from a level from 1 to 10 would you consider your glitches.
I'll start. :D
I work mornings and I'd rate my SM Glitch level about a 2-1/2 on a scale of 1 to 10.
I rarely get glitches but when I do they are usually bad enough to cause me to freeze, crash or not see or hear people in private.

I only log in twice a week on SM. Usually on those two days I work intermittently throughout the entire day. 3 hours AM 3 Hours Afternoon and 3 hours at night. I've notice I have the most issues when there are a lot of cammers logged in. I have the ongoing issue of guys getting kicked from the room when they try to go private.

I work mornings/afternoons and I don't really have any glitches on my end. Now, I don't know about the customers...they could be having glitches because they often leave during conversations or say they need to refresh, but when viewing my feed it's fine for me.

I sometimes wonder if they put too much pressure on performers to have too good of a stream and it makes it harder for guys to have a stable/good connection with us. Like our stream is so good that most ppl comps cant handle it if that makes sense? I mean from what I know how streaming works is if ur computer cant handle what ur trying to look at (processing the actual feed via graphic system ram etc and how much data per second they can pick up) Its going to cause their feed of u to either drop out or get skippy/lag right

Speaking of glitches... Ladies, be careful when you go on "break" or "pause" your stream. I hit my break button today and was checking out my feed luckily, at the same time. Even though I had hit my break button, there I was sitting in free chat for all to see!!! I rechecked, and sure enough on my end it was showing me on break but on the customer side I was live! It hasn't done it since, but that's scary as shit.
