SOOO SM support and I kept emailing back and forth, they wanted to know all about my laptop's specs and this is what they told me:

Our tech team has determined that an i7 processor is required in order to run the Encoder/stream in HD successfully. In the short term, I would suggest not streaming with the Encoder. In the long term, you might want to look into upgrading your system if you wanted that option available.

>:( I'm gonna try out MFC more...the first time I ever logged on the other day I made a whole $3!! hahahah

That's weird, I have a crappy old dual core and I run the encoder at 500kbps just fine

Um, no you do not need an i7! I have the Mac Pro i5 and have no issues. SM told me a while back i7 is recommended but not required!

I'm going to take a break from Streamate for a while. I feel I am busting my ass way to much for only 35 percent. Between the glitches, moochers and 30 second assholes I have hit my limit.GRRRRRR


Same here. Maybe I'll just do SM once or twice a week. I have other camming/content sites that need my attention anyway, and the fact that I can multi-task while camming on a non-free chat site such as ImLive and/or AdultWork is definitely a plus for me. I don't think Streamate is the right site for me.....

I just noticed the other day that I still have like $42 that's been sitting in my Webcams.com account, so I'm only $8 away from payout. I might as well try to make the few dollars needed for payout, and then probably close that account.

Streamate was my first and only site that I signed up for. I still love it but the past two weeks have been brutal! I'm not sure what's been going on but there were so many freeloaders and guys who just popping in and out of my room. Makes me think I need to branch out. I'm so thankful camming is only a supplement to my main income or else I'd have to be on the street turning tricks for cash, coins and maybe even food stamps. Grocery ain't cheap!

Click on 'my earnings' then click on 'For the week starting' then click on refresh. You should see what you made now.

I almost had my first heart attack after logging in there. I think it was not really necessary, as long as we still regularly get kicked out of privates (me too).

For me, after 7pm eastern, It starts the pay for the 20th so to see my earnings I had to change the date to the 19th once it hit 7:00. Changing it to weekly view also let me see it. At first I was like wtf where's my money lol

Support are great as always. They said I can NOT have my userpic static unless I mail them using the mailbox used on registration, while I don't even have access to it(I'm registered with a studio I've lost any contact of((() to verify myself. Is changing a userpic SUCH A BIG DEAL that I have to prove I really am the person registered to my models account WHILE ACTUALLY USING THE ACCOUNT TO EMAIL THE SUPPORT?
THANK YOU FOR NOT LETTING ME EARN YOU MORE MONEY, SHITHEADS.

I only meant SXS, it was absolutely unnecessary to make a new earnings page - I personally do not see any new information there, just have to make a click more, the daily earnings were always to be seen there -, as long as the tech isssues still exist on SM (I got disconnected in the middle of a private with a popup... saying something like your stream was interrupted, retry or inform support, mhm... I will surely do that for the copy-paste answer, the guy never came back). They should rather put some efforts into that... but their priorities seem to be different.

A member named 'dartman' or something came into my room trying to give me advice about not being so expensive, and that my exclusive rate is supposed to be higher than premium (which is bullshit...there's no rule saying exclusive HAS to be higher priced), and that I should browse the site to see what other models are charging. And he or she called me 'sweetie' or 'babe'.....

Of course this person posted this during a brief moment when I wasn't looking at the SM screen, and I hadn't even heard the sound of them entering my room. And they left immediately, so I never got a chance to tell him or her to "read my profile, and stop telling me how to do my damn job."

It drove me nuts not being able to even PM or message the member to respond...lol.

*By the way, I don't bother using SM's PM feature anymore because I think it's crap. If someone enters the room right as you're PMing a certain member, that fucks it up, and your private message ends up posting to the whole room. LAME.*

Done))). This time, I caught someone who turned it off right away, no questions asked, and wrote me back on doing so. Too good there are some nice people in their support team. Too bad it takes that much time and effort to find them.

Does any know if you can use your cammodel link to make money as well as sign up to SM affiliate programs(Mtree Free Live Cams, Mtree Revshare Cams, and Mtree Free Gay Cams)? I thought I remember reading something saying that you couldn't do both but I don't entirely remember.

Hey ladies,
A strange thing happened to me today on SM. I wonder if anyone had similar experience...
I think a member tryed to scam me. He came to exclusive chat and told me weird things. He said he is from Turkey. He asked if I was new because he's never seen me before. He also asked if I was a studio model or working from home. He told me he had a multiple account - what the heck is that? - and he wanted to make a deal. I couldn't really understand him because his english was very bad. He mentioned his multiple account whatever it was again and told me he would come to help me (I don't know what kind of help he meant, maybe he meant that he would come to pvt with me more time???) and he wanted me to send him money (I was like WTF???!!!!) Of course I said immadiately that it was not possible. However I still don't know actually what he meant. But I didn't want to ask more.
I don't know how, but I'm sure he wanted to scam me.
After I refused him, he asked me to strip and do a show for him. Maybe I'm just paranoid but I'm worrying he recorded my show :((( I think it because originally he didn't come to pvt for a show and after I refused his "deal" he changed his mind and asked for a show. It's so weird....
Any ideas what that could be? I'm just curious of your opinion....

Any ideas what that could be? I'm just curious of your opinion.... for one, anyone can record. They dont need special/ multiple accounts. 2. SM puts a limit on custies accounts for spending so sometimes they can register another account for longer time.

Unfortunately you will be recorded when you least expect it and usually from a regular. : /

I was hardwired and lagging. I think its the number of models on and customers.
Thank you! I always cam wirelessly but today I was lagging so much. So weird!

you can do both but two different entities. I use Mtree for the banners NO , the accounts do not merge.
Does any know if you can use your cammodel link to make money as well as sign up to SM affiliate programs(Mtree Free Live Cams, Mtree Revshare Cams, and Mtree Free Gay Cams)? I thought I remember reading something saying that you couldn't do both but I don't entirely remember.

maybe one day they will actually show up on here and answer the questions, They troll this motherfucker enough, why be a troll and not help when models show the concern?

Hey ladies,
A strange thing happened to me today on SM. I wonder if anyone had similar experience...
I think a member tryed to scam me. He came to exclusive chat and told me weird things. He said he is from Turkey. He asked if I was new because he's never seen me before. He also asked if I was a studio model or working from home. He told me he had a multiple account - what the heck is that? - and he wanted to make a deal. I couldn't really understand him because his english was very bad. He mentioned his multiple account whatever it was again and told me he would come to help me (I don't know what kind of help he meant, maybe he meant that he would come to pvt with me more time???) and he wanted me to send him money (I was like WTF???!!!!) Of course I said immadiately that it was not possible. However I still don't know actually what he meant. But I didn't want to ask more.
I don't know how, but I'm sure he wanted to scam me.
After I refused him, he asked me to strip and do a show for him. Maybe I'm just paranoid but I'm worrying he recorded my show :((( I think it because originally he didn't come to pvt for a show and after I refused his "deal" he changed his mind and asked for a show. It's so weird....

dunno about the recording aspect, but I think what the guy was trying to do was get you to help him scam the site (as in, he takes you private using stolen credit cards and you send him a portion of the $$$$ you 'earn' during those shows).

dunno if sm would give YOU a hard time for reporting the thief if you're considering doing so, but yeah, he was trying to conspire with you to steal from sm.

^^^ i didnt think of that one. (bc I do have those multiple CC members) GOOD CATCH ;)

I was thinking he was saying he would send HER more money. Bleh if he wanted $$$$ I love customers who say "dont you have a code so I can watch, I will tip you!?"

Support are great as always. They said I can NOT have my userpic static unless I mail them using the mailbox used on registration, while I don't even have access to it(I'm registered with a studio I've lost any contact of((() to verify myself. Is changing a userpic SUCH A BIG DEAL that I have to prove I really am the person registered to my models account WHILE ACTUALLY USING THE ACCOUNT TO EMAIL THE SUPPORT?
THANK YOU FOR NOT LETTING ME EARN YOU MORE MONEY, SHITHEADS.

If you contact them from inside your model profile using the support link, they should change it for you. Hover over "Support" at the top and click "Contact". If you don't email from within the model profile or from the same registered email address, anyone could just request that the profile photo be changed. It's for your own protection. :)


I also dislike the new earnings page. I wonder why they changed it. I would at least prefer that the week view be the default.

Sounds like lots of issues with SM tonight. I was lagging and freezing for no reason. Very strange!

This. Week. Blows. Less business, which I'm chalking up to a combination of site issues (a lot of guys told me yesterday that I froze or lagged) and, possibly, I'm not on the "new model" page anymore. But also more weirdos, including a guy who tried to claim he was recruiting for a porn studio (they do exist, but I have no way of knowing if he was actually with them or not), a guy who asked if I would escort, and someone who took me into exclusive without saying hi and then said, "prolapse ur asshole bb".

So why is it the weirdos can stay connected but the good guys can't?

I hear they stopped buying traffic and put the funds into tv. The ads they are putting out make the site seem free, even the nudity. Explains all the moochers asking for nudity. The last two months on there have been shitty with moochers and glitches. They should have never added Gold shows o the site. That also encourages guys who only want cheap ass shows. I like Streamate but damn, getting to not be worth working on there.

uhh...Anyway, I reported him. I wrote to SM support the things he was telling me in exclusive and that I thought he wanted to scam.
Why do you think SM would give me a hard time for reporting him? :S
