Is everyone still having issues with exclusive? I try the break thingy but they cant see my vid if I hit break when they get in excl we go in and he can see what i type and I can see what he types but no video feed. Do u have to do it like super quckly in and out of break? I'm soooooooooo frustrated

So, SM got back to me today- that day I went into the 'start my show'' page without actually starting a show? They're counting it as though I actually DID stream. So now I have to start all over again, waiting for them to release my account. DAMN YOU SUPPORT.

Ugh, horrible glitching today. Can't keep one private, they usually come back to my free chat, say they were kicked and haven't been able to stay connected on SM all day. My main question is, when all the customers on SM get sick of their shit, where are they gonna go? Where are the SM models going? I DESPISE token sites. Ugh. So frustrated.

Ok.. so here is a new one on me.

Had a guy come in and tip me 25 Gold. It showed up properly, and made the proper sound that a tip that size makes. But in my earnings statement, it shows he only sent me $17.77. What gives with that?

He tipped you in his currency which was most likely CAD for that much for $25.

The more time I spend on these forums... the more I suspect that all of us camgirls are a sort of hivemind in The Matrix, or secretly related or something. Or maybe awesome just congregates on here.

Most people who are drawn to the adult industry are generally a bit more eclectic and artistic than average... and we spend a lot of time on the net which exposes us to things that perhaps the general collective isn't automatically familiar with.

What Pixie said. I've discovered over the years that all the people I'm actually proper friends with are 'social outcasts' to a degree. I'd say we dance to the beat of a different drum, except that in our case there's no drum and no music and, actually, who is that drunk naked chick doing the macarena in the town square? It seems only sensible that we'd all seek each other out at some point, if only because the reunions would be an excellent source of entertainment.

It is part and parcel, methinks. Thanks to the pearl clutchers... outsiders assume we are all low self-esteem girls with serious daddy issues who have been sexually abused. They really don't want to know the truth, because the truth would gain acceptance that we just aren't allowed to have :D

Is it within the realm of possibility that my super shitty round trip times for the last 2 days are a SM glitch? I am running a wired connection from the west coast. My current download speed is 18.09Mbps, upload speed is 21.64 Mbps ... The last two days have been a total fucking nightmare with my round trip times vacillating from poor to average, placement tanking, no traffic. I'm trying to troubleshoot this with very little technical knowledge with a hangover and am seriously on the verge of tears right now.

I think its a glitch, my download speed is 40 and upload is like 70 and I am also hardwired I am east coast, off NJ/NYC servers, but I saw my round trip speeds go to insane numbers of 12000, there is no way. Then normal again and off the charts. It cant be right if anyone thinks its me, please advice would be nice!

Upload of 70?! Screenshot or it didn't happen!

I would advise you both, when these things happen, to restart your computer and also your router. Make sure you're wired and that your Ethernet cable isn't damaged. Double check your encoder settings. THEN start swearing and blaming Streamate!

Your download is 90, your upload is 6. That's still enough for streaming in hd though

My upload (measured with a seattle server as I am not in the U.S)varies between 25-35 Mbps and I still get the bitrate dropping now and then .But I blame SM.I had like two months when my bitrate would drop daily,sometimes to 100 lol ,what I did was ask my provider to change my cable and placed a lamp behind my camera.Unless those months sm servers had problems and then they fixed it I would say that helped.Like I said,now it`s rarely happening.
As for FPS ,I NEVER get 30 using any of my webcams(all of them Logitech) directly so I use a splitter even when I only work one site.Using webcams directly I got at most 20 FPS ,using verysoft I always get a stable 30.

i checked my tags this morning:

"terrible show, nasty boobs, fat belly (I am 7 months pregnant..) & kinda sucks." Ha. Love sunday mornings. I seriously can't recall giving someone a bad show since I've been rated 5 star from every person since 3 days ago. Maybe a pissed model? loser dude?

Sunnylexie

Insulting tag + no actual bad rating = broke hater who doesn't even have enough money to take you pvt so as to rate or leave a comment. Clearly not someone who your income depends on so just block the tags and forget about them. The worst thing that can happen is them coming back and re-tagging from a different account. But their number of CC's is limited and your tag block isn't)))).

By cable do you mean coax cable? I always cam with a lamp behind my cam.

Ethernet cable (cat5) from my apartament to their equipment which is somewhere in this building .I dont have a coax.I'm using paid version of verysoft ,free version is just good for testing,u get the verysoft logo and black and white vid so can't cam with that.U can try manycam for a test before buying verysoft ,u should get better fps with that but the vid quality wont be as good as thru verysoft.

Edit
I see you posted as I was typing this,glad verysoft helped .

Another hack is using OBS instead of the Adobe Encoder. It forces the stream fps to whatever you set. On the downside, if the video your cam gives out is choppy, it will be just as choppy on the site even though it won't affect your ranking.

i checked my tags this morning:

"terrible show, nasty boobs, fat belly (I am 7 months pregnant..) & kinda sucks." Ha. Love sunday mornings. I seriously can't recall giving someone a bad show since I've been rated 5 star from every person since 3 days ago. Maybe a pissed model? loser dude?


Some guys think they are being hurtful with tags, however what they are doing is helping our income with specific tags because others are able to search specific tags. I used to get ass hurt when some asshole would tag me w/b.s until I met a guy who spent big money on me all thanks to a specific tag. LOL

They give it to you. They say it based on earnings/Time In Paid Chat/Time Online/Ratings but I got mine after my first consistent high earning weekend ( 400+)

The automatic responses from Customer service (which looks like they completely ignored what I said in the first place) are really starting to get old, I hate having to respond back and re-write what I said to them in the first place then kindly remind them thats what my email said and I'd appreciate a non-auto response back. Blarg..

You know that feeling when sm is dead as f* and when you are about to give up you get a nice tip or a nice session and you are like "awsome "?Why the hell do I have to suffer that much :))!
In the last months I felt like giving up this site so many times but just at that moment when I'm so decided to finally do it .....he shows "brain activity" and can't do it anymore !Guess it is gonna kill me some day!:P
