do any of you gals receive your paycheck through the post internationally? i've been receiving mine like this for 2 or 3 years now with barely any issues, but with the coronavirus situation it's caused real problems. delays are to be expected for sure - and the last cheque i received was a week late - but now i'm waiting on 2 cheques, one of which is almost 3 weeks late! i'm broke af and getting overdraft charges every day which is super frustrating because i've earned a lot over the past few weeks, but also i'm reluctant to re-order them because the charge is quite hefty, and the same thing may just happen again. anyone else experiencing issues with this?
any update on this? Im having issues with this as well.. thanks

I can't tell if people are purchasing exclusive or premium sessions? It's important because I offer different stuff in each.
Thanks!

Okay, so I think I just figured this out.
If theres NO notification pop up, its a premium chat. otherwise i did notice i get exclusive and block session pop up.
I've also had it where there's multiple guys in one room? thats premium?

Correct. I don't really use SM Connect if that's what you're using but I think it tells you which it is up at the top of the chat window when a guy is in there too.

Hi everyone,
I did my first gold show tonight and actually succeeded in it for once, but I have not got my earnings added to my total earnings? I stayed until the end of the gold show and did what I was supposed too.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Takes around 10 min for your GS earnings to load.

How is everyone doing on SM & the contest this week? I thought I did well so far for this week but I'm not even in the top 500 yet. Which makes me kinda really bummed out tbh bc I thought I had a decent start to the week (albeit I only worked 5 hours Sat night and then all day today bc I was not able to Sun & Mon). But on the other hand it does make me feel better knowing we are only half way through the week so there is still some time for me to keep trying. :)
I usually place ok in the contests (usually in the bottom 100 prizes and sometimes higher). I think what mainly got me bummed was bc it's the first time they have done a contest with over all weekly earnings, so this is the first actual comparable contest to everyone else on the site. And I came to realize what I thought was a good start in general for the week was in fact not, that there were 500+ models doing way better, and I feel like I don't try hard enough now. It was like a reality check/wake up call and I feel like I really should be trying harder, if that makes sense. I don't know how to explain what I'm feeling, but it really got me into a sad funk, and I'm usually the "look at the bright side of things" & try to be optimistic (for myself and others) kind of model when it comes to camming. Maybe I'm just being too hard on myself and need to see how the rest of the week plays out. /rant
Please do not feel bad about your rank. This was the first 7 day long contest that I know of - except the last one being glitched and counted all seven days but girls didn't know - anyway, the numbers for this contest were ASTRONOMICAL - usually on a week long 3 day contest its 1k per day for top 50 - I placed in the 80s at 3k....

What has SM been like this past few days for glitches etc?
I'm back on today after a few days off and within my first hour and a half I'm having sound issues (it keeps cutting out apparently), my video keeps freezing mid show and now I've had a member sending c2c requests which never came up and he thought I was declining them..? I doubt it's my internet that's the problem. Is anyone else having similar issues?

I think I am deciding to just stick to indie sites for now with skype shows. I am a bit scared to be recorded. I already found my profile from SM on affiliate sites, no recordings yet though. I only did it for a week for a couple of days. Should I delete my profile? I know that I can get recorded on Skype a well but if I have a hundred viewers on SM in one day, I've had 100 shows total in a month on the indie sites. I don't feel the risk is worth the reward on SM.

Does anyone know if a member can still read messages if you blocked them from writing messages (not banning from room)?? A few days ago I kicked a guy from my room and he sent me a message bitching about it and I responded then blocked him. He almost immediately came into my room again under a different username and harassed me again, but I was afk so didn't have the chance to block him. He came back again tonight under multiple different names and I was finally able to block two accounts. He is obsessive and creepy, I wrote SM support... hopefully they can block his IP or something.

If he keeps harassing you, Liz or support might be able to help you?... maybe take screenshots of the incidents. I know support can block a user on username itself (and Liz might be able to block him even with him changing name?)

honestly, I'd leave your account open just incase indie goes dead - I found personally after a while indie just died nearly totally for me - it's picked up a little but I'd have been fucked without options
I also think if you put on geoblock it stops you being used on whitelabel sites? I might be wrong tho so check that

I’ve been camming part time for a couple of years now and returned full time at the start of the year, Streamate is still the same roller coaster ride it always was but the problem with roller coasters is eventually the constant big drops make you sick.
Time to start my ascent back to page 1 right now I’m on page 3/4 depending on how many models are online.

I havent been able to work this week and now I have to take tomorrow off as well (shark week here and I just couldnt be bothered to try) So I am going to put all of my hardcore computer knowledge to try and figure this Vibrator thing out for sure and I think I will also give Liz a call and see if she can shed some light on why its so glitchy. Thats if she is in office though. Otherwise I will drop her an email and see whats up and then I will report back here to let you all know what I find out. It is very possible that they are still working out the bugs on these toys cause it generates serious income for the site so I am sure they are as anxious as us to get it working/

I took geoblock for one week & during that time whitelabels recorded my exclusives & resold them as videos without giving me any of the funds. If you are not ok with being everywhere than use geoblock as the other labels are much more likely to put your stuff out there than a random guy unless of course you do Gold shows.

We're granting all models early access to SMConnect mobile, a new way to stream through an Android or iOS mobile device! This new mobile streaming option is still in early development, but we wanted to share it with you as soon as possible to get your input.
You may have tried mobile streaming in the past, but this new method makes it as easy as 1-2-3:
Using an iOS or Android mobile device, open your web browser (we recommend Chrome on Android devices and Safari on iOS devices).
Go to streamatemodels.com and log into your account.
Find and tap the new SMConnect button at the top of your mobile dashboard. That's it!
OMG YAY!! So now I can go out and stream myself live from anywhere...........except we are not allowed to go out. Stellar timing on this one SM. *slow clap*

Hey girl. I hope I can help you out here. Okay I got mine connected but its not the Lush 2, I only have the original for now but I finally got it connected. First make sure that your phone and computer are on the same internet line. You must be logged in and show must be started (go live). Then try to connect, if it is still not connecting then go to your bluetooth settings on your computer (this is PC not IOS only) and make sure that your computer bluetooth is paired to your mobile phone. Also disconnect any other devices connected to your computer bluetooth. If there are other devices paired you can leave those you just dont want to share that bluetooth with anything else. Once it is paired to your phone it should work but I did have to do a restart on my computer to get it to connect the first time. I was then also able to reconnect any other items back to my computer bluetooth. Dont know why it was like that but it worked for me. Let me know if you are still having issues and what exactly is happening and I will see if I can help.

Seems like it would be much easier to ban him from the site. I am sure he does this to other girls considering the number of accounts he has, and I also doubt he spends much if any money on the site.

Hello :) I wanna know actually how that worked for u, taking the Geo block off. Ive been using Geo block for years but lately Im hating the long periods of silence in my room. Did u see any difference before and after ? Do you think is worth it? Im feeling tempted to experiment. Thx :)

It was correct, but I just had one show with tips not show up anywhere yet and it has been at least 10 minutes since the first tip.
Just as I was writing support they temp removed all info from my daily online time, thank god for screenshots I suppose.
The earnings look correct on my home page, but I am really not pumped to work if I am going to be taking screenshots and crunching numbers all night.

I have had numerous stalkers that have made dozens(probably more like scores) of accounts over the years, even when support officially bans them for me they are still able come back.

make sure that you are using the same internet connection on your phone and your computer and also make sure that your computer is paired to your phone. Also please note that it will only work if your room is live! So you will have to start your show and then scan the QR code. Are you using the Lush 2 or the original?

Yeah I think the only way to get rid of stalkers is to ignore them. No matter what do not respond to them!! If others in your room make comments to him about his comments then message them privately and ask them to also ignore that guy. These trolls feed off our attention. As soon as he has come into your room and you realize it is him you dont say another thing. Dont acknowledge that you are ignoring him. Talk to every other guy and carry on as though his comments are not scrolling across your screen and dont block him or kick him out!!! As you see he will just make another account so just let him come in and say his worst or send one letter messages at a time or whatever but just ignore and ignore and ignore and I PROMISE he will eventually go away and never come back because he will want to find some other girl to go to war with.
This job requires us to be stronger then the worst troll. I have no trolls and no stalkers because I cannot be beat. I turn trolls into spenders and stalkers get bored with me. My first clients was blocked in 2012 and in the last 8 years I have a total of 74 blocked clients. Not even 10 a year!!
