Email her again.. I emailed her and never heard back from her for 3 days, so I emailed her again and she responded within like 30 minutes. I think she gets so inundated with emails and probably forgets to respond sometimes. :)
This. Always this. I give it 48-72 hours and harass 'em again. And I always make sure to tell them that we know it's a site wide problem if it is. If I hear more than three other girls on SW tell me they're having this happen, I tell SM that exactly. Harder to argue it's 'just me' when I do, I've found.

I emailed Liz again (as well as Streamate support) Liz responded within 5 minutes and they are looking into it, she said that it might be possible to reimburse for one of the shows. Thank you ladies so much for all your help!!! :) :)

So I need to ask someone about this issue I have. I just completed a tv gold show with a 60 goal. I always do nude striptease with light fingering for my regualr and tv gold shows. Never got a complaint. Well, just now I exceeded my tv show goal (so sm doesn't have to pay me shit) and with 3min left I got a message from the producer that I was killing time and threatened to make not eligible for tv. wtf??? After the show the guys said it was an awesome show.
So basically I'm almost in tears bc I have done tv shows before with this same routine and no complaints from the producers. I mean should I just opt out of tv altogether bc i do not need this stress.
Anyway am I crazy or was that threat overkill when i exceeded the tv goal?

Should I email support about this producer or am I making something out of nothing. I mean i feel like was pressured to make my show "Hotter or more hardcore" I guess but that's not cool.

Sorry If I'm spamming, but there's nothing wrong with my show if guys are paying and liking it right. IDK this has got me second guessing myself :(

I would definitely email Liz if you can. That's ridiculous, unless they told you ahead of time and gave you a chance to opt out of that particular show.

Yeah i was given no warning that my gold show topic was not what they wanted for tv. Like I said I've done this topic for tv shows before and never received a complaint.
Does anyone know liz's email offhand or can pm me with it???

Your dudes are satisfied, so don't second guess yourself. Hopefully someone will get this straightened out.
That's so ridiculous for them to say ,so it's good that you told someone. What if they would've said that to someone who physically couldn't do more than light fingering!? Because of her period or pain or something. :/ Ridiculous. Keep your chin up, obviously your shows are awesome because you exceeded goal! <3

This was not supposed to happen! I've said it before, some of the guys running those shows are uptight and some are really cool. These guys are just human and sadly some humans are assholes. If this guy didnt think you were doing enough that is his problem but yes if he threatens to ban you from TV gold shows all together because your not going hardcore then you did the right thing to report his ass to streamate. Im sure Liz will look into it for you cause this guy has no right to tell u how you should preform sexually! Its not his body and he is not your pimp. Im sure you will hear back from streamate but just know that your doing everything just perfect and this guy was totally out of line!

Thank you Thank you Thank you! I've been struggling with my self esteem regarding my performances on sm, but I know I really do put my all in them. I mean its not like I don't use toys and stuff, but for a 60 goal for a show, just doing striptease and light fingering has been a hit (until yesterday with this producer) and it ensured I didn't feel tired or ripped off. And like I said the actual guys in the show loved the show.
Tonight I felt really weird and angry about this incident. I even tried to let it go, but I couldn't continue working yesterday after that tv show. So, I'm hoping I hear back from someone after the weekend is over. I probably won't work until then.
Thanks again for all the support. All let you guys know when I hear back.

Is it possible to get the rights back to your content on streamate. Maybe pay a price for it? Do other girls have a problem of deleting their accounts but still finding themselves in either promotion or free porn sites?

Streamate will remove you from promotion if you ask.
That won't keep your material from being on free porn sites though. Once you transmit it, there are going to be guys recording and posting it. Happens to us all eventually.

Not that this is an excuse for how that producer treated you by ANY means- I think it's disgusting and I am so glad that you reported it, but for the first time last night when I did a tv show, the producer told me what the "theme" for the show on tv was- it was something along the lines of "watch hardcore live girls getting wild for you!" I never knew that the shows were themed before this, nor did it say it ANYWHERE when I accepted the tv show. Regardless, I'm glad the producer told me so that I went a little harder than I normally would have in the show. Maybe this was the theme of the show that they offered you, and no one told you? Also-- I feel if that's the case, it should be the producers job to know who would be the better fits for those types of shows, or atleast putting some type of warning when they offer on what type of show is expected. My main point with that is.... don't take it too personal, and don't let it get you down!!Take it with a grain of salt. Maybe it was a newer producer (or just a dickface) and hopefully they will resolve the issue for you. Your show is perfect, because it's you DOING YOU :)

The producers can be straight assholes. I had a room full of trolls once and they disabled my ban/kick button. I wanted until 10sec left and disconnected (after I cussed his/her ass out). My guys came back and i made double, so fuck them.
@Ivy my reg producer told me we don't have to follow the themes. Anal shows are a no no for me and I get them all the time.

WTF. There is currently a couple of girls in the 3rd row of the first page completely naked with their vaginas hanging out.
Oh... now they just asked for tokens
Now they put their clothes on because they weren't getting tokens... that explains it (this is on streamate)
Now they finally got some tokens and are taking their clothes back off
They aren't answering anyone during the goldshow countdown, a bunch of guys are accusing them of being pre-recorded but yet they are still chipping in.
UGH.
Seriously, this is so frustrating. Why are there pre-recorded shows on the first page! Or anywhere on the site for that matter...

Is it possible they are splitting with a token site like chaturbate and are paying attention to that room and not their streamate room? I've seen girls do things like that before.

If you live on country, were profilepages are blocked (like for me, if i do not use vpn) then you need to go to modelpage earings and then detailed view of the date on which you received this rating and click on customers name. On 'sessions' tab you will find info of ratings and comments for each show you have made with that customer. Just go trought every customer in that day.

That really sucks, I've also had annoying producers almost everytime when I did those shows. Like "do this, do that, etc". And for low goals, so I'm partly glad I don't get them offered anymore. They are useful only if its really really slow. Last time I got offered one it was for 50 and I was during countdown at 43, with 3 mins left on timer. So I declined. These shows somehow make me feel weird, like my shows are not interesting. I mean you did fingering, and that is not enough or something? What if you wouldn't have toys or were on period or if you just prefer fingers? That's ridiculous in my opinion.

I actually got my period during a TV Goldshow. My period is reliable like a German, but for some reason it decided to come one day early while I was on TV. To my shock the producer tipped me an extra 10 Gold right after it happened and I had well surpassed my target. I immediately stopped using a dildo and even said, "oops sorry guys" when I realized what was going on and that is when he tipped me!! I always wondered if it was like encouragement because that is a turn on for guys or if the producer was just trying to let me know it was cool and I didnt have to stress about it. I switched to some JOI with cum begging for the last minute to finish the show but I have always wondered what that was about.

For some reason i'm in the mature section on SM now. I haven't changed my profile stats in a while. My listed age on there is 22. And I don't look older than 24-25. This week my room has been flooded with guys needed a mommy and "you don't look mature" I was like WTF and that guy said i'm in the mature section.
Has anything like this ever happened to you?
I'm so mad because last night was so dead for me and its usually one of my best nights...but I got like no traffic
I would contact Liz because support just sucks... I was stuck in the "russian" section for like 2 months and nobody could figure out what was going on. It was really frustrating.

I use Egg Timer Plus. It is re sizable and programmable. I pin it to my task bar and pull it up when I am ready to cam. Then hit start when we go private. It is nice when you get a block session to know where you are at too.
There is a free version (I use that one) and a paid version for I thin $5
You can google it or download from here

I raised my rates after reading a lot on here by about 50 cents. Now at $4.49/$5.49 per minute. I'm hardwiring my internet as of tonight as well. I think I'm worth the money especially since we only get a small cut amirite!?! Anyway I hope it's not a big enough jump where I'll be spending a lot of time in free chat, but I'm expecting it
update: I can't get the wired internet to work :// the cable doesn't fit into the outlets on the modem so I plugged it into the router and my computer doesn't pick anything up ughh

You may be thinking of MGF, where it used to be the case that you had to use a unique name on their site. But I think that has now changed too.

I remember there was a time when I had to ask SM to increase my rates now they've been increasing my rates without even having to ask. In June I got a "You can now charge more per minute" message, today I log in and got the same message. Now I'm allowed to go up to $14.99. Good look SM. I'm going to charge $14.99 one day just for shits and giggles.

SM is a private based site so it is a different hustle. Make them pay to see all the goods. I started out on token sites and it took me a while to get the hang of SM (and still working on it). I would *really* inhale this thread and other threads using the search feature. ♡Camming Connection = Camming Bible♡

I'm new to sm. Usually I cam on mfc only but I wanted to try splitcamming sm and kinklive so I try to get to know those sites first.
How can you prevent people from doing 10-20 seconds pvts? It's not like on mfc where you first have to agree to go in pvt :(
For an example i have 3$ for ass/pussy flash and some one wants to see it but doesn't "tip" so he just invites me to paid chat and leaves after 5 seconds when I flashed. That sucks he just got me 20ct or sth like that!
I am in party chat mode how can I initiate a gold show?
Any other tips for me? I feel kinda lost on this site :(

Just fyi, it's against the rules of Streamate to flash pussy in free chat, even for tips. No "below the waist" nudity in free chat is allowed. You can flash your ass, but like, cheeks only type of thing.
As far as the short privates, just don't get naked or flash until they have stayed long enough.
