Could I make money without getting nude? I'd rather just wear sexy shorts, mini skirts/dresses/belly tops. I dont want to get full on nude

You can, but you might not make as much money and it will certainly be more difficult. If you'd be willing to get down into lingerie or swimwear, that would be even better.

People don't like to say it, but the more you're willing to do, the more you'll make. If that's something you're okay with, power to you and good luck.

My paycheck is late from them. It usually comes on Tuesday but it's still not here and I'm supposed to go out of town this weekend! I'm aware there was Veteran's Day but it should have been here by today! Anyone else have a late check this week?

*Updated* The mail was apparently delivered at 6pm here. My check was there. :) It's seriously never been that late before...

I've been trying to update my gold club and it keeps telling me the videos were rejected because they could not be processed. I havent had that issue before and now they are threatening to shut my gold club down. I have been trying up upload in the formats allowed and under the file size limit, but they still get rejected. Any ideas?

I just had a private with a couple on cam to cam. Its my first private with a couple (that I can actually confirm because they were on cam, I have had lots of guys who say their gf's are with them but they never seem to have a cam). They asked to see my pussy so I showed them and they both just sat there staring at me. I was using a toy and they both kept just staring. Totally threw me off cause I was creeped right the fuck out!

Its occurred to me now they might be researching cause they want to get into camming but its still making my skin crawl and I never feel this way. I dont know why Im even sharing this! I just wanted to talk about it with someone. Anyone else experienced something like this.

Oh and for the record I have no issue doing couples I do them in my rl with some regularity it was just the staring that is screwing with my head.

I'm giving up on SM. They keep failing me. Every time I log online, it's "can't see you," or "lag bb." My internet is perfect and other cam sites are going great. I hate to say it but I think it's time I kiss SM goodbye.

I have had those kind of shows - couples, & one time a group of 4/5 guys together just STARING sitting on their butt. I absolutely hate it, makes me feel Very uncomfortable. Always feel like some sort of "dancing monkey" when they just stare (that particular scene of Zoolander pops up automaticallyin my head> 43266 Dance monkey DANCE
I dont mind couple or groups c2c as long as they are doing more than just staring at me

Even had a dude once just smoking a cigar and typing commands while doing nothing but smoking and staring, blocked his ass. Creeps me the fuck out even when its just one of them

I've had that kind of c2c sessions too. Had a guy once watching me from his work place during lunch time.... he was having his lunch... some of his colleagues were passing by on the backgroud and this was like for the whole lunch time... he had yogurt for dessert lol. Even guys alone sometimes just stare. Don't say anything, don't move from their chairs, just stare.

I mean... it's a little weird in a way because I have to adjust the way I interact with them, but it doesn't creep me out at all. They can stare at me for as long as they want as long they keep on being respectful the money is coming in. Specially when it comes to couples. Each couple has a different fantasy they want to fulfill and a different reason why they watch cams together. I've also had those who just watched me doing my thing for a while and then after our session, they fucked the shit out of each other talking about me, as they told me later. It's their thing, what can I say. If I can help in any way to spice their sexual life and on top make some money out of it, I'm happy.

But I understand that each of us cam girls will also have different feelings about this.

I have had a lot of guys who just sit and watch and that doesnt weird me out but this one did. Perhaps they were just stunned by my brilliance and they couldnt type or move! (or show any facial expression at all!)

Im glad Im not alone on this though.....I think it was their creepy analytical stares that got to me.

When I reported to support about the "can't see you" They asked me for my computer specs, my speed. all that, and then came back with
"Those customers need to contact Customer Support directly for assistance in viewing you. They may not being using the correct app, they may have a bad connection like low wifi, etc. There's a number of issues. They will need to contact us so we can assist them individually for their specific issue.

Streamate Performer Support"

It is THEM when will they get it.. The ones that can't see us are on their phones. There is no doubt, I had 2 other people check my stream on computers and 2 check on phones, I even checked on my phone... and it was a black screen or said i was in private when I wasn't (they could actually hear me talking)

It's 2015, Streamate should have mobile support by now.

I think the biggest factor in switching over to another camsite and making SM a part time thing is the simple fact that I'm making so much more on MFC. I also enjoy the token model a lot more than I thought I would. Sometimes change is good.

I have a lot of computer users who have the same problem. Most spenders can't buy now because the technical and internet requirements on the customer's end is too high. The upgrades are not working out. The proof is all over these threads. Maybe SM will realize that soon.

Two days ago a guy found me on a different site. Originally he saw me on SM. Apparently I blocked him because he was in and out and not talking. Not talking, not tipping and just lurking. Or so I thought. He said he kept typing hello but it wasn't showing up in the chat. He tried to send gold because he could tell I was about to block him lol (sometimes I can be evil and demand lurkers to tip or get banned) He couldn't send gold because it would change to in a private show. I can't imagine why he would lie about that and then find me elsewhere and start spending? I will continue to split with SM but mostly in the background. My remaining regulars on sm know to just go directly into private. But I would definitely suggest scaling back on the banning. I got lucky that time.

Can someone please help me figure out what is going on with my Round Trip Time ? These are the settings that I am currently using in the encoder : 864x720 and bitrate kbps is 800. I tried the newest settings of 1280x720 and bitrate kbps 2000 but I didn't see much difference in my placement so I just went back to the 864x480 for now because from my understanding the newest settings don't affect your rating right now anyways? Am I right on this?

Here's my computer specs: HP ENVY 17-j100 Notebook PC series

My processor is : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2.40GHZ 2.40 GHZ

Installed Memory (RAM): 8.00 GB

64-bit operating system, x64 based processor

My cam is a logitech 920c

I am usually on the top to 2nd row in my category and anywhere from the middle row on the front page to the bottom of the front pg. Most of the time my Round Trip Time stays between 150 to 200 & my grade says good but for some reason every now and them my Round Trip Time will jump in the 300's. My Round Trip Time jumped in the 300's earlier and knocked me from the middle of the front pg to I don't even know where cause I couldn't find what pg I was on. When I looked in my category I had went from the 2nd row all the way down to the 5th or 6th row!!!

What is causing my Round Trip Time to go crazy like this?

Here is my speed test results:

You have to test your upload speed at testmy.net
Speedtest.net uses flash to test your internet so it's not accurate. I think it could be your upload speed that's causing the dip in your bitrate.
Testmy.net will almost always give your lower yet accurate results.

I just tested my upload speed again using testmy.net and the first time I did the test I got 4.1 mbps. I tested it several more times and the 2nd & 3rd time I got 2.9 & 3?

My download speed was 66 but its just the upload speed that counts, right?

^^^ Had to delete my post cause i read u talking about extremely low bitrate so now u changed to round trip. Ok so then a big round trip number shows u far away SM servers so if u in europe or some other far away place then it makes sense and there is nothing u can do about it, my round trip is between 200 and 400, i am in e.europe. If this is not the case then i dont know as ur pc and connection are good.

Upload is what counts! I would assume your upload is around a 3 or less when you start broadcasting. Not terrible but higher would help with bit rate.

My download speed was 66 but its just the upload speed that counts, right?

^^^ Had to delete my post cause i read u talking about extremely low bitrate so now u changed to round trip. Ok so then a big round trip number shows u far away SM servers so if u in europe or some other far away place then it makes sense and there is nothing u can do about it, my round trip is between 200 and 400, i am in e.europe. If this is not the case then i dont know as ur pc and connection are good.

Sorry about that Kat I meant my round trip time is what I am having problems with. I am in the usa in the south east.

I am tired to hear about that shit from SM: "customers have slow laptops or a fucked up speed". You idiots, not all are gamers or can afford a huge speed. It's fucking ridiculous to ask them to have a better laptop or connection, just so they can masturbate! Make things accessible for everybody.

Upload is what counts! I would assume your upload is around a 3 or less when you start broadcasting. Not terrible but higher would help with bit rate.

Sorry Marina I said that it was my bitrate that I was having problems with but its my round trip time that keeps going from 150 -300 0r 400 and giving me a bad grade:(

It's okay. There's not much you can do with round trip unfortunately. Here's a good article that explains internet speed and round trip.

If is under 300, don't worry, is not such a big thing. Mine normally is 200-250. And doesn't affect my placement.

Advice about the guys who send their email or Skype in msgs. DONT DO IT! I shamefully admit emailing guys in the beginning thinking, what's the worst that can happen...
1) you risk ur account. 2) they usually use it as a way to lure you off the site to get you to escort or date. 3)they were never interested in paying for skype, Kik, Snapchat whatever, see bullet 2. 4) its usually a sign that a regular is about expire and let you go.

Thought I would share my thoughts and vent. Been getting a few of these in my mailbox lately. Staying on camsite is the safest way to go.

You should ALWAYS avoid a person who types skype,kik, or snapchat on SM. They don't care about you. Those types are just looking for a discount or a way to drain your energy. And they're fully aware that they've just jeopardized your account by typing said words. They know wtf they are doing. How you respond determines if you will get a suspension or not. Even during these fucked times and shit traffic SM is not playing around when it comes to stealing traffic. When you create a web presence the legit spenders know how to find you. You don't have to say much. Being too thirsty just fucks up the game.

When I reported to support about the "can't see you" They asked me for my computer specs, my speed. all that, and then came back with
"Those customers need to contact Customer Support directly for assistance in viewing you. They may not being using the correct app, they may have a bad connection like low wifi, etc. There's a number of issues. They will need to contact us so we can assist them individually for their specific issue.

Streamate Performer Support"

It is THEM when will they get it.. The ones that can't see us are on their phones. There is no doubt, I had 2 other people check my stream on computers and 2 check on phones, I even checked on my phone... and it was a black screen or said i was in private when I wasn't (they could actually hear me talking)




I had a guy try THREE fucking times today to see me in pvt. He said he was able to see me in the Gold Show (he took me pvt immediately after the GS ended) but couldn't see me in regular pvt. I told him to contact customer support. They didn't really help him. Finally, on the 4th try, it worked. SM can suck my left tit!

Can someone please help me figure out what is going on with my Round Trip Time ? These are the settings that I am currently using in the encoder : 864x720 and bitrate kbps is 800. I tried the newest settings of 1280x720 and bitrate kbps 2000 but I didn't see much difference in my placement so I just went back to the 864x480 for now because from my understanding the newest settings don't affect your rating right now anyways? Am I right on this?

Here's my computer specs: HP ENVY 17-j100 Notebook PC series

My processor is : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2.40GHZ 2.40 GHZ

Installed Memory (RAM): 8.00 GB

64-bit operating system, x64 based processor

My cam is a logitech 920c

I am usually on the top to 2nd row in my category and anywhere from the middle row on the front page to the bottom of the front pg. Most of the time my Round Trip Time stays between 150 to 200 & my grade says good but for some reason every now and them my Round Trip Time will jump in the 300's. My Round Trip Time jumped in the 300's earlier and knocked me from the middle of the front pg to I don't even know where cause I couldn't find what pg I was on. When I looked in my category I had went from the 2nd row all the way down to the 5th or 6th row!!!

What is causing my Round Trip Time to go crazy like this?

Here is my speed test results:
http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4830094018

With a computer like that I would stick with the 720hd settings vs the old legacy settings, they haven't stated if they are affecting placement yet but I'm sure they will be soon, plus they make your cam image 500x better and if you have the UL speed and the computer then why not? It wouldn't affect your round trip. My rtt is usually in the 90s-100s but sometimes it'll go to 200-300 but doesn't stay that way long, normally just a hiccup in the internet world.

I have had those kind of shows - couples, & one time a group of 4/5 guys together just STARING sitting on their butt. I absolutely hate it, makes me feel Very uncomfortable. Always feel like some sort of "dancing monkey" when they just stare (that particular scene of Zoolander pops up automaticallyin my head> 43266 Dance monkey DANCE
I dont mind couple or groups c2c as long as they are doing more than just staring at me

Even had a dude once just smoking a cigar and typing commands while doing nothing but smoking and staring, blocked his ass. Creeps me the fuck out even when its just one of them

LOL i had a guy smoke when i was in pvt too. I thought it was funny as hell, did more smoking than jerking, and was high. He came in my room last month and asked if i remembered him, i was honest and said "no" then he came into exclusive and turned on his cam with a cig in his hand and yelled "do you remember me now bitch!" and logged off LOL

My RTT is frequently garbage as well despite the fact that I am hardwired and live in L.A., which is on the same goddamned coast as Seattle. Trying to figure it out and remedy it has been an endless source of frustration for me. I would love to know just how much exactly it plays into placement as I have not noticed any variation in the delay in my chat regardless of whether my RTT is clocking at "Poor" or "Excellent" or anywhere in between.

Yes.

Sometimes, until it hits closer to home, we take for granted too many things (like human rights, free speech and the right to go about our lives in peace). Hope the lowlife shits get caught soon and brought to justice.

Random question - why is the placement different on the site when you are logged in versus not logged in? Models who are usually on the 5th row not logged in are at the bottom of the page logged in. What the hell is that about???

Also, what the fuck helps placement??? I can't get a friggen straight answer. I asked my rep and he said it was a little bit of everything. I asked Liz and she said it was based on the ranking. My shit is all fucking "excellent" with the exception of my round trip time.

Fuck!

`Girls please correct me if I am wrong but I believe placement is diff when you log in bec models who use geoblock to prevend a country/state from seeying them will only get visible when you log in; they will not appear on the list otherwise which affects placement

No one seems to notice this circled text though!

Ranking tool is just a indicator on which things to work so youll prob get more succesfull.
In the end earnings an houre and total earnings a week impact placement a lot. Its not the only part that factors in though! KatyBoleyn once wrote down all the factors that impacted placement and in which kinda order. You should look her post's up they are alway's very informative

I hate it when guys go to private and just sit there and don't talk! Especially if it is a couple of guys in private not talking. I want to know that they like what I am doing and if they don't say anything, I feel weird. Like, do you like this? You like this ass and pussy I got? Lol then damn, at least type something for me!
It's the same with c2c. When I see guys just watching and not touching their dick, I'm like why? Isn't the point of being here to jack off?!?! And once again I feel weird when that happens.

Oh well, I still try my best in those situations :)

I'm beginning to think the placement analytics are super complicated. sure ranking page helps but I think it how much money you make also helps. I signed two new people in on cammodels and noticed a spike in my paid chat also. Like the kind of traffic I had as a new model. NOt sure if that's also a factor.

Also SM puts cookies in peoples computers to remember them. Just because you see yourself on 2nd row doesn't mean that everyone else does too. I notice that they are constantly moving girls around the page depending on whether they are doing GS, in party chat, etc.

I hope everyone had a good week. I made my minimum goal and tanked my placement to achieve it. Sigh...but I still made my goal and I can work on my placement next week. My paid chat was at an all time low but I did end last night very close to 40%! All is not lost. Remember your goals and be happy when you achieve them. I have to remind myself
To stop checking placement or il get more into it than being awesome.

This has been my worst week in a very long time.

I even stopped camming while I was pregnant and my placement wasn't even this bad when I logged back in after having the baby.

Idk... I'm going to try to get a new laptop and cross my fingers that it helps. Otherwise I'm completely screwed.

Hope other ladies had a good/decent week.

The past couple of weeks I've only made 200 (for the week) and I'm in the middle of the first page.
