So, just in case anyone wants to know if the new group mail message thing is helping... I sent a message telling everyone who has spent money on me the days/times I would be online this week and so far I've done private with a handful of guys that used to take me private often but I haven't seen in a while. So, it appears that maybe they just didn't know when I was working!

How do you send an e-mail to all the guys that had a private with you?

My group messages keep getting rejected. I think I'll give up on them. I asked support what am I doing wrong but will probably get some sort of automatic response or told how to change a flat tire, lol. Also, people were having trouble going private with me today after I fought like hell to stream because of complications with snow and power outages. Oh well, I'll keep at it.

It's a new group message feature. Go to your inbox, then click "compose", then "send to group", and choose which paying customers and which time frame they fall in.

I've just kept it really vague about coming to see me and when I'll be online and haven't had an issue with approval.

Can you apply for a second account on stream mate for voyeur only?

KarmaComa
02-26-2015, 01:09 AM
I was told to set up a voyeur account, you do a variation of your cam name with the word "voyeur" somewhere in there. Then you need to contact Liz or Vanessa so they don't reject it as a double app.
I was thinking about doing it and that is what I was told, but since I didn't I could be dead wrong lol
People do it for couples camming as well

I tried a few months ago but they're not doing it anymore, something about too many secondary accounts that aren't really used.

I tried this today and could not believe it would be two DAYS before the guys would even get my message.

This thing does me no good really.

I guess they want to make sure they don't have too many traffic leaks? I dunno. My only complaint is not being able to attach a photo. You know like a reminder as to why they should be in my room day and night showering me with gold. Sprinkle that shit all over me baby. Mama likey.

LOL at "told how to change a flat tire" after I quit camming I'm going to come back and spend one last epic day being 1000000% brutally honest with everyone. I think I'm going to steal your line and throw some obnoxiousness back at Streamate support. I'll probably tell them my car broke down and demand that they tell me how to change a flat tire.

"This is Streamate support"

"Yes, yes I know. I need you to support me in changing my flat tire"

I know I posted this the other week, but seriously what is it with Streamate crashing so frequently the past couple of weeks? Sorry I sound like a broken record. I don't think it's on my end, my internet is 8 ping/download 126/ upload 1.97. What is the friggin problem?! :(

Hi ella,
I have always been curious why we would want a second account. Why would we not just use the account we have and throw it into a GS for voyeur? Is it because you don't want you time on line calculation messed with? I am sure you all have a good reason, I am just oblivious to it and curious of the reason.

I have 2 accounts on accident. One is withering away and I find it sad. I thought about splitcamming with the 2 accounts but somehow think they would frown on it lol... I fret being suspended from both.

So sad that I'm getting $30 days a lot lately.
Thank God I moved to a less expensive place, where my bills don't even amount to $2000, because I def. couldn't count on SM, or any of my sites for that matter, to pull in the $5000 per month that I use to need just to pay bills.
So very, very. sad.:(

Yes! it does, but guys are going to pick up on the fact its automated . A couple of my regs wrote a reply message to my mass email and they said " oh u started to use the automated emails"...blah blah blah joking around lol .

I did get a lot of replies back to me, about 40 emails id say. Everyone seemed pretty happy to hear from me and i guess were fooled by the "mass" email thinking i wrote just them.

The custies will figure it out soon, so just try in make your messages as sweet and innocent as possible, so they dont get turned off knowing your just spamming pretty much.

You recently tried to send a group message (Subject: Sexy Saturday). Unfortunately, your message can't be sent right now for the following reason:

Are ALL your customers from all time men?

Feel free to submit a new group message that fixes the above issue.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

DAFUQ? So now they want to withhold my email because my generic message didn't include all sexes? How silly is that? Honestly I could care less as long as I'm getting paid. But what if I did? What if I don't want to cater to females? Now a weekend message can't go out because I said "Hey sexy Man...." And I only get 35% ?????? That's crazy. SM has more issues than my gender specific email. Shocked

And I get a lot of SISSIES. But im not sure if you can create customer list on SM? Never used the mail feature to be honest. Im use to other places where I can and send out mass emails that are more specific to the niche. I like the new feature. Don't get me wrong but that's some bs. I hope they are reading this because that new feature needs some tweaking. My next message is gonna read:

Hot Black Pussy Live On Cam. The END


That's it. It's the truth and no one should be mislead or offended.

Why would they cap is? Sorry, i don't get it. I am curious what you mean though...

Honestly I think SM and several others sites have calculated over the years over which months are the least profitable and so they base that on how often/much money they put into advertisement. This is a conspiracy theory obviously but it makes you wonder. Several bbs have stayed on more than SM's 4 hour time preference and for several days they can't make over a certain amount.

Over 11.5 hours of mine were put in towards 4 days this week which all resulted in earnings between $40-49. I was on each shift for 3-4 hours and only made forty-ish bucks? That doesn't make sense when you're used to making at least $150+ over a 4 hour shift.

Last night traffic wasn't great but it came in spurts of groups of guys and most said they capped out or were waiting for SM to raise their daily limits. Never in the history of camming have I had 4 days of $40 earnings unless I popped in for an hour, never four! SM ranks also based on hours. 90 hours a month is pushing it if the money isn't there to be made. They got me fucked up! I hustled so many sites last night and made my goal but making $14 of that on cams and $49 on SM was the pits.

I am taking Xanax almost daily now because I can't take all those panic attacks I get. It was getting pretty ugly yesterday and I didn't know how to collect myself. Popped a pill and everything was allright... Well, for that moment. I'm trying to think more positive, but this is such a stressful job that sometimes I just can't take it and resolve the issue myself. I don't know how all those people who run their business cope with stress like this... Hats down to them and to us.

I'm with you Courtney! I've been camming now for 5 years with SM and yesterday I was on for almost 5 hours and made $36, first time ever. I was also splitting with Freewebcams using their platform to split with SM so who knows maybe that messed up my placement but it was horrific!! Today I'm not splitting with FWC and its a little better but not much but then again Friday's have never been a big $ maker day for me. Super stressful when I need a set amount each week and don't attain it, really fucks up finances, plus just found out that their raising my rent $50!! Good times!!

A BIG hug for you! I'm not sure if you only cam but I find that having a part time vanilla job to partially cover some of your bills make a huge difference in your well being but everyone is different. I feel for you because it must be so hard having to take Xanax so you can keep yourself together.

I am taking Xanax almost daily now because I can't take all those panic attacks I get. It was getting pretty ugly yesterday and I didn't know how to collect myself. Popped a pill and everything was allright... Well, for that moment. I'm trying to think more positive, but this is such a stressful job that sometimes I just can't take it and resolve the issue myself. I don't know how all those people who run their business cope with stress like this... Hats down to them and to us.

A BIG hug for you!

I'm sending a hug right back at you. Thank you! :)
I'm hoping to find a vanilla job, for sure. And do this on the side (if I want to/feel like it), but until then - I just have to keep going with this and cross my fingers every week I earn enough money :)

You recently tried to send a group message (Subject: Sexy Saturday). Unfortunately, your message can't be sent right now for the following reason:

Are ALL your customers from all time men?

Feel free to submit a new group message that fixes the above issue.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

DAFUQ? So now they want to withhold my email because my generic message didn't include all sexes? How silly is that? Honestly I could care less as long as I'm getting paid. But what if I did? What if I don't want to cater to females? Now a weekend message can't go out because I said "Hey sexy Man...." And I only get 35% ?????? That's crazy. SM has more issues than my gender specific email. Shocked

Wow lol that is stupid!

I'm so confused by this. SM and most porn sites are geared towards men...female customers probably make up like 2%. Most models customers are men so why would we cater to women on a male orientated site. I seriously can't believe that they denied your message for that, it doesn't even make sense. How they choose to run things is so random sometimes. I wish I could understand their thought process sometimes.

Honestly I think SM and several others sites have calculated over the years over which months are the least profitable and so they base that on how often/much money they put into advertisement. This is a conspiracy theory obviously but it makes you wonder. Several bbs have stayed on more than SM's 4 hour time preference and for several days they can't make over a certain amount.

Over 11.5 hours of mine were put in towards 4 days this week which all resulted in earnings between $40-49. I was on each shift for 3-4 hours and only made forty-ish bucks? That doesn't make sense when you're used to making at least $150+ over a 4 hour shift.

Last night traffic wasn't great but it came in spurts of groups of guys and most said they capped out or were waiting for SM to raise their daily limits. Never in the history of camming have I had 4 days of $40 earnings unless I popped in for an hour, never four! SM ranks also based on hours. 90 hours a month is pushing it if the money isn't there to be made. They got me fucked up! I hustled so many sites last night and made my goal but making $14 of that on cams and $49 on SM was the pits.

Oh Kortney thank you for the reply! I was so confused... Yeah I feel your frustrations about the earnings. I'm sorry you are going through this, I hear ya. Looking at this weeks earnings compared to last weeks I have literally made half the amount. And I have worked more hours this week than last week. WTF. But it's weird because I've banked all month long and bombed this week. I always jokingly ask, "did streamate forget to pay their advertising bills this month?". You kinda backed this theory up for me now. Like, wouldn't you want to pay for your traffic when it's slow?

As for the capping guys spending, what is that about? I had a few guys tell me this and I thought it was some sort of new thing they are saying trying to hide from me that they secretly don't have anymore money. But you are second model to mention this to me. HOW DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE? If traffic is low then let the guys available spend spend spend! What is this monkey ass backwards concept about?!

I know it might be frustrating to hear but I had an absolutely normal month. The money overall was the same for me as I would expect for Feb. and it didnt appear I got capped anywhere.

Plus I had many new clients, it didnt appear to me that there was any slow down there. Im not saying your wrong but it wasnt my experience at all.

I have to agree that while it's been slower than normal at times, it hasn't been so bad that I think it's more than a slight post-holiday slump in spending. I definitely had a number of days where I was doing $10-15/hour (and god did THAT suck), but I'm sitting at about $38/hour the last few days and that's in the middle of normal for me during my non-peak work hours. I have noticed that I'm having one really good shift, one really bad shift, and one or two 'meh' shifts each day and that the times haven't been consistent. $300 in a 12 hour day is super possible right now, but I'm making like $200 of it in one three hour burst and a lot of dead time in between.

Basically--chin up. It's bouncing and random as all fuck this month, but it'll be back to normal soon! :)

Has anyone had the glitch where you accept an exclusive and then you're just stuck..? it doesn't kick it to the red chat, and grey chat is empty. I've had it happen 3 times tonight.

I had all types of issues with my stream tonight. Blurry, then jumpy, then frozen, but all of my readings were good. Also, there seemed like a huge delay from when the show ended (they said bye) and the window actually closed. And I had very little traffic from anyone that wasn't a regular who Favorited me.

I had this happening a lot this week, and guys messaged me saying they hit exclusive, and then nothing happened. Also guys getting into exclusive and immediately getting kicked out...but they could go premium no problem. Sucks, because my roleplay guys don't want peepers. This week has been ridiculous, honestly. The rest of February was fine, but some strange shit is going down this week. My placement is up, because I'm online for like 5 hours trying to make $50. I have re-jigged my schedule for March to re-emphasize my other sites, because relying heavily on SM this week/month has reminded me that I need more eggs.

I am just starting on SM. And I am so glad I have a prescription for xanax! Anyway, as I said, I just got my profile approved. It says Exclusive is disabled.Perhaps I should do a stripperweb search, but thought I'd just ask first. Is that the normal process...no exclusives until a certain dollar amount is reached or some other rule I have missed? Rules. Something I need to get used to. Thank you, ladies.

Usually, you click on the link near where it says disabled and that allows you to set the rates. Exclusive is automatically disabled on SM until you set it.

Thank you, Issabelle. I need to read through everything in the guides before I begin. Definitely nervous...I'll get over it. My laptop is having extreme PMS, so I need to switch to the desktop. Thanks again.

I had the exact same experiences this week. Tons of tech issues. Guys getting kicked out trying to leave gold. Regulars who normally go exclusive are now going private. Weird. As for placement its meh. I don't really think its gonna improve much unless I have an above average day. I think there may be too many cases where cammers are locked in around me in my niches. I won't spend too much time dissecting that one. As long as I can hit $50ph or more split camming Im fine. It would be nice to get it all in the same place. Things just don't work like that for everyone.

I'm seeing 3-5 second delays in how long it takes for my 'paid' show to start after I accept an exclusive or premium. I also noticed that geoblocking was completely fucked for a few days earlier this week (fixed now) as I could see myself without logging in AND in my customer account. Nice to know my placement again, but ugh.

I miss the constant income and shorter hours required online to meet goal while splitting but, at the same time, I am also thoroughly enjoying the dedication to just one site. I am actually improving my hustle and, shock of all shocks--converting freeloaders!! Yes, it is possible! The joy and high I get from meeting gold show goals and closing the deal with guys is addictive. I love the challenge. Because of the Boleyn camathon I now have way better closing skills and that will only help with business in the future.

How the heck do you do that! :P I guess I haven't cammed enough to know who's defined as a freeloader and then how to convert them... Is anyone who comes in your room to talk and maybe makes requests and doesn't pay you a freeloader?

We all have our different perspectives. Neither is wrong. However considering I've just switched over to a studio and I'm still not making a fraction of what I was making with my regular account for the hours I've been putting in, I don't doubt it at all that some people are still banking. I'm just saying I'm not anymore.

I had this happen once yesterday. He sent me the exclusive request, I accepted, it kicked everyone out of my free chat, and no one was in exclusive chat...I just sat in limbo. When I went to my cammodels link it looked as if I was in exclusive. I had to log out and log back in. Then when he came back and resent the request everything worked fine that time. It was the first time I've ever had that happen like that.
