Does anyone here price their premium rate higher than their exclusive?
I'm just wondering if it's a good idea for me or not... I haven't cammed on SM since February, my placement is going to be reaaaaaaaaaally bad, but the hassle of creating a new account was too much, so I had my old account reopened. I'm fine with that, but I'm wondering if I should adjust my rates according to my placement for now and then increase it as I do better, or just leave it as they are? And should I switch around my prices? They're currently 7.99/5.99.

I can't tell you if it is a good idea for you or not but I can tell you that I have had my premium price higher then my exclusive for at least 2-1/2 years now. :D

Sometimes guys are so fucking horny they don't even pay attention to the prices and click the first link they see. At least in my case that always happens. So for awhile, I had both at the same price. That confused them to hell. Now I'm back to 6.99/9.99 and that seems to be the right place for me. I tried 7.99 but that slowed things down.

SM is really annoying me this week as of late. My funds are still on hold because their accounting department still doesn't know how to properly ask for what they need. And now I find myself under several models from Zimbabwe and shit when my paid percentage was 64%. WTF?

I noticed that this was happening to me yesterday when I was on. I was much lower than I normally am on the site. :-/ I checked when I realized that my traffic of guys wasn't as busy as it normally is. I hope they fix whatever issues they are having soon.. Until then, I'll just hustle the traffic I DO have. :)

And seeing all this stuff about glitchiness on SM worries me...
I hope this gets resolved within the next 2 weeks... I'm really tempted to put MFC on the back burner until I'm 100% prepared, but SM is my only other site atm.
How long has this issue been happening, if anyone knows?

I get a check every monday so i guess 5 mondays means 5 checks ?
That always confused me lol.

Yes If you get checks on Mondays then 5 Mondays in Dec and 4 Mondays in Jan. :)
I have only been on a couple days this week but I didn't notice any glitches or drops in my placement. In fact I was shocked because I logged on with no makeup and still averaged a very high hourly average! I was certain I would be bored with no shows but the "fuck it I'm super pregnant and my give a damn is well past busted" attitude seemed to work. :)

Personallyyy I just prefer one person at a time- it's easier to manage for me and I give a better show.
Also no peepers. I don't have to stop and block during my show, which I find throws me off and is a bit unsexy.

This has already been covered repeatedly, and nothing has changed. I know it's frustrating but there's nothing we can do until Streamate figures out what's causing it. They are aware of the issue and working on fixing the glitch that's causing our placement problems. Trust me, we're all frustrated.

I have my exc cheaper than prem mostly because I like 1on1 shows over group plus my shows are geared more towards 1on1. Guys really don't pay attention to the price. They go prem all the time not realizing that my my exclusive is $2 less. Then when multiple guys come in I'm like.....

For me the pixelating problems started end of september and they come and go. But the Audio and bad placement issues started 2 weeks ago.
I just logged off now and it seems to be getting from bad to worse. It looks like I am completely invisible on the site now and my income has dropped nearly 80%. I can't go on like this on streamate any longer :(

Regarding the rates reversal, it's been discussed here a few times. I do it when I'm tired of the peepers, and I can't take it anymore.
I always put it in my topic box and auto-text when I reverse them.
I do mostly fetish type shows, so guys must go exclusive anyway, and I know they really feel like the are getting a deal.
To comment on the fore mentioned glitch...
For the past week, all I've been hearing on SM for guys in my chat room, is "bad camera", "blurry cam", or "I can't hear You.", over and over. I'm in classic chat, so I know it's not a matter of them ganging up on me.
If it weren't for SW, and this thread, I'd have no idea it was the site, because I never got an e-mail from SM about the problem being on their end.
My income is below half of what it usually is on there. Pisses me off, since I have tons of traffic, and tons of new traffic that will probably never come back to my room,.... or even the site.
Thankfully all the other sites I'm on, don't have any tech issues.
I'm hoping it's just that they are rolling out some fabulous feature.:crossfing

Ugh cant wait to get my audio to say yes again. Have been back and forth with support but to no avail. At least im back to bottom of first page and not on 5 page. (my normal spot is about row 4 first page which I was totally satisfied with)

I was for a short time in page 2 but then again to page 5. It says yes to audio, but still donīt displays the HD icon, or detect encoder in "my ranking" section...I hope it gets fixed for me too soon.
Btw, I still gets privates in page 5 but what a jerks outhere!

So sorry to the bbs who had no audio and issues with HD. I haven't had any of those issues, just placement but I logged on last night/this morning and things were better than normal. I was even shocked to see that my trip time was under excellent since using my family's net.
I noticed the times my feed was pixaly or jumping it didn't stop those goons from spending money even though my placement went from page one to page 6 and back. Man that was insane. SM also finally got their shit together with my tax info after I bitched them out a few times. The money for me this week has been amazing, even with all the glitches so here's to having a great weekend, ladies!

Anyone notice that only ratings of 1-4 seem to affect your overall rating on the ranking page? I was at 4.92 for the longest time. I get 5 star ratings all day long and it never moved. As soon as someone rated me 4 stars it dropped to 4.82. Tons more 5 stars and nothing. Got rated 1 yesterday and it dropped again to 4.78. I got 3 more 5 stars later that day plus 4 more so far today and it hasn't changed.

So, I've been making notes on customers that stay less than 2 minutes in paid chat...I've labeled them as "minute men". That way, if they come back and take me to paid chat again I know to draw everything out as long as possible. So in reality, they're only fucking themselves by being so pathetic.

That sure is strange! No, I haven't had that problem. My rating goes up as I get more 5 star ratings...the only time I notice it dropping is when I have a ton of ratings drop off (after the 90 days).

Um... so my cam in the encoder is flickering black occasionally. I checked my stream and it's very choppy. I realized I can't select 'deinterlaced' on the encoder anymore... it's greyed out for some reason. Also, in the encoding log it keeps saying "auto adjust: bitrate" over and over. Ugh.
I checked some other streams and everyone else is looking choppy too. Dammit I just wanna log on and make some money. lol.
edit: Whoops, turns out leaving my proxy on severely reduced my upload & download speed... THAT problem's solved. Still don't know what's wrong with the encoder though. Is anyone else unable to check the 'deinterlaced' button?
