Judging by this week, nope, I won't work on Christmas. I did, previously, when things were good and when the week before Christmas was one of the best of the year. 2017 week before Christmas and Christmas I was living online, would take a nap and get back on because I was banking, everyone was tipping big and buying shows. This week I can be online forever without a show or a tip.


OK this seems so strange to me. Just 2 years ago, and you aren't the only one saying that. Why the change I wonder.

I wonder too. 2017 wasn't good just around Christmas but the whole year was very good, 2018 was okay then in 2019 is just horrible. And what's worse is that it didn't only involve SM but all of the sites I am on. Something changed for some of us and it's not looking good. Still, I am hoping for a better 2020, I keep telling myself that maybe I just had a bad year altogether and next one will be better. I am very disappointed about this week, same like you, I'll get 30% of almost nothing.

More models. Back in the day, SM had max 1500 models online. Last night I saw 2300. That's an increase of over 50% models. More girls to choose from. More websites. More freemium websites. More platforms for camming (texting, indie, premium snap, clips etc).

Adapting is crucial. Actually, business has been better for me with years. Even though, websites have more models, I've switched my style, my show, my prices when I saw a drop in earnings.

Same like u ladies i wonder if being a veteran on SM is 'not helping' some of us?!
I mean i am going on 10 years with SM, i started in 2010 and things are harder every passing year, at 1st i was doing soo good.
Maybe we should get some loyalty recognition haha not this bad traffic and no business.
Every day there are new faces joining the site who bank, some not and leave, some not anymore.... geez, i feel like a SM Dinosaur LOL

Can't wait til I get my first direct deposit from Streamate. Thankful I got this week's check but only half of my address was showing on the envelop and the other half was the amount of my check. Not sure who folded it but that really annoyed me.

Soon I won't have to sign checks, take front and back pictures for mobile deposit then waiting for shit to clear. What a fucking chore!

Does anyone know of someone I can message to expedite my new ID being approved? Not a new model, my old ID expired. I've messaged support through the model and general email address n nothin'. Like us all, I need to be able to stream stat. Thanks!

I've asked support a while ago about this issue. They told me black on white: "none of your business to report customers that break the rules. as long as you don't engage or ask for personal info, you'll be fine'. So don't worry. I get numbers and emails weekly, I ignore 99% of them, cause they come from random cheap ass people.

I ope this isn't a dumb question but it probably is. I stream using the Streamate Connect button, is that what the encoder is? Or is the encoder something seperate that you have to download?

Do you have your state of residence blocked? If you do, you will need to try to find yourself with your VPN active :)

In the spirit of getting this lonely man holiday bag and starting this second site off with a bang, I'm emailing Liz to reactivate my never-used account; I know about requesting a static profile image, a break button, and the ability to raise my rates. Is there anything else I should know about to ask for? Thanks ladies!

SM emailed me back today:


"Hello,

Can I have a name of the user you received a message from so that we can look into it?

Thanks

Streamate Performer Support

In the email I sent them I stated that my problem was in regards to "the only message in my inbox" (definitely more than one message in my inbox so I fucked up there) and asked "can you see the message or do I need to send a screenshot?". Above is their response.

So I've determined one thing from that:

1. They can definitely read your messages.

Under what circumstance is the only thing I'm unsure of. If I had actually deleted all but one message then maybe they would have hit me back with a "we don't see the conversation you mentioned" or something like that. Which would let me know that all they need is motivation in order to check your messages. But I hadn't considered this so, my bad.

Can they just pick a random girl and look through her inbox without context? OR do they need to have a members username first in order to find potential messages between him and the model? Don't know. But they can clearly do it.

SM can see everything you do on the website, even your IP. As for msg, in your Account Preferences, you are forced to check this "box". So yeah, they do read conversations, but I'm sure they don't give a shit 99% of time. I've had so many customers msg me contact info. They are still around. I'm still around. SM doesn't have mods to supervise the website, like other platforms. I'm pretty sure they rely only on reports from other models/customers, but that's just a theory.

Just be smart and never ask for email address or something. And if a custie does send you, use that info and ignore the msg. Let them send whatever and block where you feel the need.

I joined streammate 8 yrs ago using an @ live address an switeched everything to gmail as i am on youtube and gmail saves contacts better andhas google voice. I emailed support with no luck and was wondering if I am able to change my email on streammate. i have a lot of affilate customes and dont want to lose them by starting new account.

Has anyone else had luck change here streammate email ? I still can login to streammate just dont have access to old email i used to sing up

I've never changed my email through Streamate but I see you're in California -- SM is dealing with a lot of stuff right now regarding the new AB-5 law and California models being reclassified as employees, so that may be why they aren't getting back to you promptly.

I would suggest going straight to Liz - [email protected]

It looks like my direct deposit went through this week for the first time, guess I'll find out tomorrow. I'm nervous though because it says it was sent to some number (not my bank numbers) "via unknown".

Is this normal for it to say that?

On my Payment History it says Payment Number then lists a number, "Via ACH", and "Date Issued" (for tomorrow.)

It doesn't say anything about the banking info.

(I've been getting ACH for several weeks now since I was part of the initial California roll-out; not sure if we see different details.)

Hi does anyone here knows how is it possible to post automated messages in Free/Guest chat? I’ve seen other models that are obviously splitcamming and doing so. I’ve tried AutoHotKey, but setting up is so difficult.

Any help would be appreciated. I think automated messages would help managing free chat stress since reducing dealing with freeloaders/idiots.

And I’m really sorry if that was already posted here.

Check your external email and the spam folder. If you're in a studio contact them to see if they received an email as well. I was suspended once and I didn't get an onsite email. It was sent to my Yahoo address.

^^^ Looks like u been temporary suspended for who knows what reason. How u try to stream, using SM Connect or the old page? Is ur ID on file, all good with it? When u streamed last time? Maybe u got a longer suspension u were not aware of?!

Streaming using SM Connect and my payment method is not ok, I have payments on hold. The rest is good and I streamed yesterday..big question mark

Check your external email and the spam folder. If you're in a studio contact them to see if they received an email as well. I was suspended once and I didn't get an onsite email. It was sent to my Yahoo address.

Oh yey! Thank you! Yes, it was in my external email. Reason: off site is not allowed. :O I never did that but eh..Will have to write them an email regarding this so I can make light cause I have no idea what was going on

It helps if you respond right away and directly to the email that was sent to you. If you apologize and explain, they may lift the suspension right away.

I'm not sure what that off-site not allowed meant? Did someone mention paying you elsewhere or wanting to meet in person? Or I wonder if you were off camera for too long? I would definitely ask for more clarity.

Are any American models for streamate here signed up through “camcashdaily”. If so have you received a 1099 from them in the past years working with them? Just curious as I’m having a really crappy time trying to figure this out between them and streamate who are each giving me a runaround.

The 1099 should come from the studio. How are they giving you the run-around?

Update: in case anyone else in the USA is working for camcashdaily you will not receive a 1099 from them nor will you receive one from streamate.

That’s not it. What I meant was something like a bot some models use. I tried to program using AutoHotKey so I can do other things and not deal with Free Chat and minimize my stress.

If the messages are appearing directly on the screen then those are overlays added through a separate program. You can search YouTube for how to create scenes and graphics with OBS or Xsplit.

I thought overlays weren’t allowed on Streamate! That’s good to know! But it wasn’t on screen, they were in the chat room. Like they were typed messages that appeared every now and then while the girl was dancing or doing her make up. But thanks for the overlay option as it would be so much easier to create your own CharlesBot for SM.

Hi, just so u know, even there are text and/or graphics over SM's live video stream or profile picture this does not mean they are supported by SM, they emailed me to let me know they removed a profile picture that had "Buzz me" written on it tho i see several models having text and/or graphics over their profile pictures and live streams.

Regarding ur original question, i am not tech savvy but from what i know there is no official way to program and send automatic text messages on SM, some models have friends/ lovers typing for them or sending automated messages directly in chatroom (u can program these/ pre-write them but u still need to click to send them).

My advice is not to rely on these automated messages cause on SM is important to pay attention to ur room and be as authentic as possible, for example when i send a preset message i still fake that i type lol, guys are not impressed by automatic messages but many models use them to advertise their video sales or shows; i use them to tell guys what i offer in my shows or to invite them to pvt or to make guys understand they need to stop lurking or freeloading, so on.

What? Ive worked on SM for five years and they have always sent 1099s.

If you are an american model under the studio camcashdaily which is based in the UK no you do not receive a 1099. Regular sm site models and studios that are based in the USA will though.

This is information coming directly from each side which I’ve been trying to figure out for MONtHS! Finally got a definite answer this morning.

I know exactly what you're talking about. I've seen it happen too. The girl is no where near her keyboard/laptop and the message appears. It's exactly like the auto messages we can save/send in the chat. My only guess is that she has a "helper" and actual person in the room with her clicking "send"

I thought maybe some girls were given timers (which would be a wonderful idea) so that those auto saved messages will show up in the chat every min or so.

if the studio pays the model the studio is responsible for sending the 1099
I inquired about a studio when God birthing camsites lol
a option is to have streamate mail all funds to the studio and the studio will pay models along with all other bookwork
if its not a streamate ran studio

Say I wanted to take 5%, not a sm studio.. sm would mail me the model funds, I then cut a check from my business actt to models.
