I'm not sure how long you've been camming but one great thing about being a sex worker, is that you can spot bullshit miles away.
Guys who are serious about taking you private, don't ask lot of questions. I tell them I'll be glad to answer all your questions in private or exclusive while I bring up the block screen. If they leave, I block for baiting and wasting time. These are typically fuck boys in real life and I am anti fuck boys.
ok any girls here have these types of guys? They ask you all about private and act like they are going to take you , they sound excited , but then 1 min later they leave lol ! Ugh they do this all the time , annoying, they ask all these questions and when i reply , they leave..weird

I have several saved messages about what I do & where I do it. My most used is " Mmmm, I'd love to hear more about in exclusive ;-)" I get real chatty in paid chat, free not so much.

Hi I was wondering when does it start? Is it when we get approved to start streaming? or when we first broadcast is it that the clock starts ticking? Just want to make sure I take advantage of the status. Thanx!

Welcome to the forum. Its 30 days from when you first start streaming.

Hello, brand new to camming and just started camming on streamate Monday night. I'm a bbw. So far the clientele has been pretty nice. The ones not interested just leave and the ones that stay have great conversation. I'm just trying to gauge how I'm doing. As I have geo turned on i can't see my placement. I qualified for exclusive and gold shows yesterday. I'm really not familiar with traffic patterns and average money made. Over 3 days I've put in about 16 hrs. The first 24 hrs was pretty good taking home $250 Tuesday night and last night were a bit slower so brought in a bit less. Some person gave me a 3 rating bringing me down to a 4.77. Is there any real data to measure against anywhere?

$250 when you're first starting out is FANTASTIC. Traffic and money completely varies from day to day on Streamate, so don't focus on that and instead work on putting in hours, taking advantage of your new model status and building a regular clientele.
Also you can email support to remove ratings but don't sweat it too hard, most dudes who rate leave a 5 so the occasional 3 or 4 star rating isn't gonna ding you too hard. You can always set up an automessage to encourage them to leave you a 5 star rating after the show. Welcome to the wonderful crazy life that is camming!

Ok, so I was in a 15 min exclusive block with a regular customer, one of my fave, and I got people coming in and out of my private room as if it were private and not exclusive. Has this happened to anyone else??
Also, we were planning a real long session, like, we were at minute 23, and he got kicked out ("customer must contact support"). We hadn't even started so I don't think he just hit his limit. Weird stuff.
Oh, and, last thing, my stream is suuuuper delayed these days. Like, my video arrives to them tomorrow morning when I'm chatting. So annoying! =(

It must have been a private block session. It will make the same sound when a customer enters.

He could have hit his limit if had been spending money on other girls prior to coming to see you.

I had been using the router that came from my ISP as well, everything was fine and then one day BAM- turns to shit. Bought a new gaming router and good as new. Could be a million things though :/

How bad did I fuck up? Had a new guy come in and chat with me. Then blocked a 30 mins exclusive with me. Well I'm a squirter so go through alot of towels. I was talking with my client in the beginning of block. Well after a few minutes of conversation we are about to get down to business. Well hubby will bring me in things I need like water, fresh towels, random items my clients ask me to get. He always does it quietly and off camera. Last night he brought me in towels during this block and I needed help readjusting my camera and had forgotten my keyboard on a shelf out of reach. Unfortunately the camera was not zoomed in and is hand briefly entered the corner of the frame. My client immediately bolted 8 mins in to a 30 mins exclusive. Weird thing is he rated the session a 5. I can definitely understand a charge back but beyond that...how bad did I fuck up? Can I be let go for it?

You didn't fuck up. He just seemed a little impatient. If I have to go off of camera I tell the customer such...like oh I have to get "insert whatever". They usually say ok and they remain there until I come back. If you have to go off camera next time just tell them. I talk to customers like they're right there in the room with me...like they're regular people. Shit one time I had to sign for a package and I told the customer hold on I have to sign for this package real quick don't go anywhere..... when I came back he was still there. As long as you don't go off camera trying to waste the customers money they most likely will wait.
SM covers chargebacks so its not something you have to worry about or fear. You also can't be let go because you aren't an employee. They can suspended you if you break the rules but you can't exactly be fired or laid off.
He rated you 5 stars so there's nothing to be worried about. Customers bounce in and out of pvt and block sessions all the time. Don't worry about fucking up. Camming is something you learn how to do....it takes trial and error. Just focus on putting on a good show. The more shows you do the easier things will get.

I wouldnt worry about the guy leaving the block early i have a regular who does this almost every time he stays for maybe 5-10 mins for his and leaves. Love when that happens. As long as he rated a 5 i wouldnt worry he obviously got off and enjoyed the show. Once they are done they just leave haha some guys are just that way.

If you use the same name they will find you without you having to mention it. But mostly I think many of us use social media to bring business to our individual projects.

Lol did you ever think he came in the first 10 mins of your 30 min block? That happened to me once 3 mins into a 15 min block - premature ejaculation still equals paid in full.

No he literally bolted the second he saw hubbies hand enter the frame. Either way I guess. He rated me a 5 and I haven't heard anything from streamate. New rule hubby doesn't enter unless the stream is stopped.

I see that SM is now offering us payment through Paxum. Im assuming because payoneer will no longer to wire transfers outside the USA. I read through their pages but other then I getting a wire transfer (which I dont need) It all looks about the same as Payoneer to me. I was hoping their would cost less to use but No luck!
Is there any other benefits that I am missing?

11-01-2016, 03:08 AM
From what I see, they offer bank transfers for business accounts only. So yes, it's the same as Payoneer basically.

It seems odd to us that all the SM contexts with a large top prize are always being won by anonymous profiles. Seems like a good way for them to just keep the prize. We are really curious to see which models are in those blank top 2 spots.

I find it a little useless to have that " anonymous" model status during contests. I mean everyone knows what everyone does so whats the point

They are real performers. Not everyone wants the other performers to know their ranking in contests due to various reasons. I use anonymous as well.

Glad SM is offering Paxum now for a payment method. When first setting up paxum they weren't my fav (took me over a month to get my card) but fuck payoneer for their $5 instant loads to get my hard earned money. I'm welcoming paxum payments with open arms.

Not everyone is ok with customers and other models knowing their business especially when some people can be catty. I know in the past a few models got attacked on Twitter because of their earnings. Models as well as customers/men can be really petty when it comes $$$. If there was a chance that I could be verbally attacked on things we use to make money i.e. social media, camroom, personal website, email, etc just because of winning a contest/making more $ than someone else I would go anonymous as well.

I understand. But I also do not understand. If what you say is true then what to think when other models say congrats, good for you and so on. Does this mean its all fake? I mean who to believe anymore? Also I think we almost know who are most the models who are anonymous. I believe its pretty obvious. It's the same models who are top rows,who work all the time or who have best traffic etc etc etc

Sure if you wanna put that much thought into it lol. BUT I've seen a lot of models in the top 200 that don't have the best placement (like page 2)...so who knows!!
