^^ I am using the original and it hooks up perfectly but I saw others with the 2 were having issues. I dont know why it would be different though. Try contacting support and see if they can send you back a canned response that will be of no help at all :D

Same with me and I have the lush, nora and Hush and they just connect up all on their own! Im loving it and so are my clients cause the Lush is super loud and they can hear it :D

Lush 2. Any ideas?
On Lovense Connect the toy is connected, and in Accounts I have "liveclientperformer SMusername". So I guess the QR code DID work..? But it doesn't register on my SM.
I was able to connect Esca with no issues (altho disconnects every 10 seconds so I'm keen to use the Lush!)

I make a note on their profile and give them the benefit of the doubt that they might have been disconnected accidentally. If it happens a second time I ban them permanently.
By the way, you can ban after they leave now! Use this trick:

On SM this week for me was mentally tough-there are a crap ton of new members, but I hadn't put as much time in on the site (that's on me). Working other eggs saved my butt this week- thankfully
My thoughts on this week are that there are tons of new members on the site.
This is what I have noticed for me as of recent:
1) New members that haven't used camsites before ever.
2) Members that are at home with a full house.
3) An increase of members with little or no social skills
So for me and what I am noticing thus far:
-is coming up with an efficient way to teach them how to behave :) (Part of me wants to dress up in what I envision Miss Manners would look like and be a disciplinarian on cam ;D )
-Teaching them how to use the site
-Determing if the member can be converted (and are they the type of customer I want)

It's not even new, not sure why they are pointing it out again. I think its been out at least a year or more.
It's pretty useless to me because the message sits there for two days before it goes out until streamate support staff can read the message and approve it.
I'd like to be able to send a message the same day at least. Sending it an hour before I log on would be ideal, but two days is not going to work for me.

And when they reject the email for something silly it takes even longer because you have to edit and re-submit. I once put "Hey guys!" And SM told me to fix that because some of my customers might be women.

I'm not sure what you're using but I still use SM Broadcaster and it's much easier to block those guys. Guys that only take you private/exclusive to clear your room almost always never say anything, they will take you private right away!
This is what I do on SM Broadcaster, I bring up the block screen while I tease, ask how their day is going... waiting for them to respond until I know they've been charged then I click 'cancel' and go on with the show. If they leave before they get charged, I click 'okay' then find them on my shitlist and block them for life. I do this with guys that I have not done shows with or are too eager to go private.
I will savagely block the fuck out of them. It will be a sad day when the only thing we can use is SMConnect.

Apologies if it's been asked already, I've not got the patience to read all pages right now...is there a set time when tags are published? I check mine fairly regularly and they've always been fine, today I blocked "bra helps boobs" "fugly boobs" and "nasty boobs" I assume its from the guy who I blocked after explaining to him for the 3rd time in as many months that I wasn't going to buy a bass guitar foot pedal so I could do a show with him.

I have no idea, but if you're asking because you want to know so you can remove the tag as quickly as possible I don't think you have to be that worried about it. I only go through and edit my tags like once every 8 months and there's always some awful ones, which means that I've sat on cam with horrible tags for a long time and I've never once had a guy mention them. I don't know if it's because no one actually reads them or if it's because most guys are smart enough to know a troll comment when they see one but either way they've never been a problem for me.

A Bass Guitar Foot Pedal? That is the most specific troll request I've ever heard. They take a few days to appear. When did you block him? Genoveve is right, spenders know better than to pay attention to that nonsense.

Thanks for the replies and glad noone studies them like I do. I believe I blocked him on Wednesday. I don't think he was a troll as such, just couldn't understand why having a 10 minute show wouldn't result in me using that money"to invest in a pedal for him". I can't wait for the end of lockdown, I'm spending way too much of my day entertaining weirdos I'd have never bothered with a month ago

He said it was an interest in feet but didn't ask to see them, for free or otherwise. He wanted me to touch and stroke it as well. He kept referring to another unnamed lady who took him up on his suggestion and apparently more than made back her investment in 3 shows. The real question is who is she :-)

He's full of it. Whenever they're talking about all the potential future money you will make from them once you do X for them it's always BS. Seems like you have grasped that though. :thumbsup:

The new Lovense connection came in blessed moment as a customer just got me a new one, but on the other hand I'm kinda turned off with the new rules for ratings. Don't want to talk much about it since is a open to public site, but damn, the time limit for paid chats they put so they can consider to be on our side sucks and is actually scary, since I've had issues with customers that passed over that time limit(sorry for being so vague, but there's no other way to discuss here).

This is my fifth day on SM and I'm reallllllly struggling to have traffic on my room. I'm lucky to have more than one person in my room, really.
I'm trying to stick to a schedule that I can maintain with a full time job on Europe (UTC+2) once the lockdown is lifted, so I guess I'm not online on the hours with more traffic.
I work using the SMConnect because you get better placement (or so they say. Yesterday I was on the first page on the New Models tag) but funnily enough my only long private was the only time using the SMBroadcaster! I don't know if it's luck or not but I'm getting a little paranoid about the two options! Tonight I'm going to use SMB to see if things change a little.
And I've made so far 35$ in 5 days!! I know it's veeeery little money but I'm trying to be optimistic and realistic. It's all about the hard work you're willing to put in and I know I can do better!!
I know COVID-19 is affecting the industry a lot and there are A LOOOOT of new models and of course everyone's journey is different, but jeeze, Where is the traffic that SM say that is getting??
Also I had a bug yesterday with SMConnect. I met my first obsessed "fan". The usual "destiny link", "we are connected", "come with me", he tried to send me his number multiple times, blablabla...I blocked his ass with SMConnect because he was a real creep and a cheap ass and 5 minutes later he entered the chat again begging for a freeby. I blocked him again and when I visited my blocked customers area the user appeared twice oO. What the heck?
PS: Loooong time lurker, I'm glad this forum exist, thank you all :')

Yes and yes!! Well 9 years ago I cammed for like three days (on SM) after I freaked out. It's been in my mind for years to pursue camming, but after years waiting for the perfect "moment" to start (AKA: fear and laziness) I thought the lockdown would be a very good moment to try it. All beginnings are difficult, I just need to keep working on it!
Sorry for sounding like a total newbie :-[ .I'm still enjoying the site a lot!

If you haven't already please take a look at this post going over Cammodel Tech. It's a bit weird that someone just starting out doesn't have very much traffic in their room. This is usually the time where new models flourish.
https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/showthread.php?225726-Cammodel-Technology-2019
This could be for many different reasons including your tech, internet and other stuff. But someone just starting out usually has an advantage despite those things. Actually most people will see an advantage if they take an honest look at their stats and learn how to tweak them.

Regarding toys vibrating when tips are given thorough Gold menu, NO, it's not vibing cause they pay for a flash that has nothing to do with the toys, a model without vibe toys can still have a Gold menu On.

Question---how do you all keep track of your regular clients, or even regular chatters who come to your room? I see that if you hover over the "folder" of a profile, you can add notes, but who has time to write notes, when you're chatting with people?
And once they've left the room and are greyed out, I can't get the "notes" field to come up.
I'm thinking I might have to keep a notebook next to where I'm sitting, so I can write stuff down.
I always ask ppl in my room, where are you from, and little chit chat questions. I don't wanna look like an idiot asking people the same questions.
Also I got my first low rating and I don't even know why. But it happened on the 19th, and I didn't cam long that night. I only had 3 privates. But I can't even remember who they were. LOL Some profile names are just so weird, it's hard to remember them.
If I had a list of who did privates with me, I could figure out how lowballed me. My ratings up til then have all been 5's.

As far as "regular chatters" personally I would not devote any time to remembering the details of anyone who hasn't spent money, if they want to be 'special' to you they've got to earn it IMO. Also as far as having time to write notes, when I write them they are very succinct, usually just a couple words and up to maybe two sentences max. I do it in a matter of seconds(I'm also a very fast typer). You sound new? Once you've been doing it for a little while you'll get way better at doing that quicker I think. I would suggest NOT using a paper and pen so you are training yourself from the start to just get better at writing the digital notes in the interface, plus thumbing through physical notes sounds like it would be very clumsy and time-consuming. Imagine once you have PAGES of notes to flip through. If you think it's hard to write notes while chatting with them imagine how hard it will be to FIND their notes while chatting.
I'm actually not that big into note writing anymore, I have a good memory and if a guy sees me enough or does a long enough show I'll remember everything about him. Plus if a guy who did a ten minute show with you 8 months ago comes back for a second one and you magically remember everything about him I think it's gonna seem pretty obviously disingenuous and engineered(especially because I feel like most people aren't able to disguise the fact that they're reading the info off of somewhere very well). I mainly use them for when I have multiple regulars with similar usernames that I tend to confuse.

Yeah just use the note function, it gets real easy. If I am busy I will do it during a break while it is still fresh. You can also go into your earnings and they will break it down by earnings by show, if you didn't do many shows click on their name and it will display their rating. If it fits sm guidelines for rating removal contact support and they will probably remove it. Then make a note in your notes to block that pathetic man next time he pops back in, because they love that shit

I use the notes section on customers ALL the time. Like these ladies say, you will find your groove with it and it will become second nature. I take notes on all the guys I do shows with just to refresh my memory on what they like yada yada. But I also use it for the guys who leave my room too quickly and I don't get the chance to block (just BLOCK in all caps). I even take notes on dudes that MIGHT be timewasters but I'm unsure, so when they come back I can sorta refresh my memory on what we might have talked about....some tend to leave if I don't answer right away if I'm talking to others at same time. If they're just a timewaster in general but I didn't feel the need to really block them I still add a note (just saying "timewaster") so that next time they come in I don't waste my energy on even a hello. Its been probably the most useful tool for me. I have a shit memory so it's been a godsend.
