Traffic is horrid! I'm so depressed
Same. The only people doing shows are looking for cams & then the show ends early cuz it doesn't work. The only people chatting are saying they don't have sound and asking repeatedly if I'm live so I must have some kind of severe lag problem. My ms is fluctuating between 50-1400 or just showing -- Not having these issues on other sites though

Same here, but i logged off for 15 minutes and no problems now. it seems to happen EVERY day for the last month or so for me. Some users can hear me and some can't. Super annoying.

Funny thing, i don't broadcast on chaturbate, but i went there, streamed for 30 mins and my feed was flawless, much more crisp, not a single RTT or bitrate problem, what is up?

Actually I have zero glitch with rtt or bitrate is only the traffic Im getting, just how is possible I was making enough money before june... and now(June,july and part 0f august) out of 5 days I stream, only 1 day is possible to make something, I cant believe it. Is just that bad for me, no business there. Im so down and frustrated. I get tons of traffic but nothing. Month after month gets worse for me. Im in ebony category and is like terrible for me now. I wanna cry.

summer is often said to be slow for SW - I've noticed a slow down on all my sites to but it might be good to try something new, add another egg, switch something up a bit? big hugs

today i had red and yellow bit rate
dropped shows /and also at 1 point sound for clients wasnt working in the free chat.
its been about 1 month since sm worked normally for me.
however i am still pulling in an excellent hourly with lots of new clients everyday so i guess i shouldnt complain too much
but sometimes during a show and it gets cut off it can be a bit upsetting

Not to be too contrary to everyone else's experiences, but Friday and Monday(today) have been my best earning days in a few weeks. I'm having some tech issues, audio and asking customers to try refreshing, but overall I've been having a \good experience on SM recently.

Hey, I'm super late to using the smconnect recording option, are we allowed to use these recordings on other sites? Like, can I take them and upload them to onlyfans, or is this a bannable offense? LOL thanks yall!

The conversion rate changes all the time but if you google 5.99 USD in GBP it’ll tell you what your rate is worth in Pounds that day. When you get your payout, the amount will be based on the rate that day.

yes you can do whatever you want with them. You DO have to convert the file though BEFORE you delete it from smconnect. Download it (DON'T delete it) convert it on the same PC (you can't move the file around) and THEN delete it from SM

I did pretty good Monday evening. I worked from 11pm to 4am I got lot quite a few blocks that were pretty easy. I’m still playing with my schedule to figure out which days and times work for me. I didn’t have any tech problems Sunday or Monday. There were a few times I worked and didn’t have any traffic last week, but things have picked up for me. It was rough there for awhile a few weeks ago for me

Does anyone know if this is a glitch with the placement showing in order of models based in their country first? I'm in the UK and all the UK models are listed first, instead of it being a mix of how it used to be. Is this the same for all countries? So if you're a customer in the US, you see all the US models first and so on?

I've been off for a week and came back today. When I first logged on it was pretty busy but it got so disgustingly hot in my flat that I caved (there's a heatwave in the UK) and went out to buy a fan. Logged back on and all I'm getting is in's and out's and people just wasting my time. *sigh*
It's just got gradually worse since the placement changed. I never do that well with the British guys and that's my main traffic now.

I went from the top of the pack on page 1 to page 2..... its really messing with me. I went from paying bills, buying some things I wanted but never could afford, to zero earnings. Like legit 0 earnings.
What is the placement from that you guys are talking about? A glitch or some new something they updated on? I feel like I'm back at the bottom again and its killing my self-esteem.

My placement today was the worst its been in ages and very little $$. I usually recognize the models ahead of me but today most of them were new faces. What gives??

I don't know what others have been experiencing. I worked this morning for a 2 hr. shift that's when I couldn't find myself. I logged off for my usual break and when I logged back on things went back to normal

I can't explain it very well. Basically. I'm based in the UK. So when I look at the SM homepage, it shows all the British models first, instead of a mix of different countries. So now all the British customers see British models first.
I'm wondering if it's the same in America. So do the US customers only see the US models first, before seeing any other countries? Does that make sense?
If so, in the UK we must be pretty far back on the pages? I'm really hoping it's a glitch. I've not heard anything back from support about it yet.
I see a mix of a little bit of every country. I can't recall how long ago they changed the placement algorithm but it is supposed to be different for the user based on their preferences.

I was like that few days ago when I decided to change category but there wasnt business for me in the new one, Idk why...then I had the worst weeks ever. Out of 5 days only 1 was selling, the rest of days in fat Zero. So I went back to my normal category and started selling again. And that was being in the first page of ebony catg. in my country. Weird.

Yes¡ same here. When I check streamate homepage, I see all the girls from my country listed first, then the girls from USA, UK etc etc. Then if I wanna check by location Just display the options above and I see: North America/UK/AU. Then South America, Europe etc etc. But you are right. My traffic went to shit since 2 months ago. I was getting tons of good trafic, most Americans but now? Just a few and my earnings vary a LOT¡ sucks,why? Because Im in a country where the guys dont spend so Im not interested at all being seen by those cheapos. Ugg. Umn that can explain why I stopped getting french guys, germans etc in my room. I was doing sooo well with them and now they disappeared. -_-

Chill out. Your placement will look different to every member according to their spending and the type of model they visit. Not sure why you ladies get so bent out of shape about what your placement looks like to you (especially if you're not even signed in to a member account)...you're not the one spending money on you lol. The guys that are looking for a model like you will find you. Just breathe.

These men really expect me to start fucking myself with my toys, within the first 60 seconds of a show. WHY!!?? I really want to enforce a 5 minute minimum rule. Is that working for anyone? I've seen it on a few girls pages and I think I should start doing it as well.

08-12-2020, 10:42 AM
Also, anyone else having issues with their bitrate and rtt going down? My bitrate was horribly low today and I just lost a show because of it. I haven't made any changes to my internet and I'm really pissed. The bitrate and the rtt have been green until the past 2 weeks, and now they're yellow and red constantly!!! What is happening!!???

I'm not sure how they manage it because when I tried that they just leave and I was barely making anything.
Instead I jacked up my prices so that even if they expect me to start right away I make more with each show. I get less shows at the higher price but the nice thing is I also get fewer guys who are rushed. Men who have the money to afford higher prices aren't all butthurt about spending money they can't afford to, so they are definitely more pleasant and relaxed.

I've just had a customer come through on one account for a show, leave then come back under a second account to carry on shortly after - Is this someone I should be concerned about? I asked him why he'd come back on a second account and he just said he had to. I didn't take the second show, I refused him.

Might report it to support to be safe. I think that is one of the things that's mentioned in the "New Wave of Fraud" thread

Maybe he needed new funds on a different account, i have a customer that always comes with a new account, i think he makes them so they cant be traced by wife maybe?! can be prepaid cards he loads money onto and always picks a different username. anyhow, i dont refuse shows unless they blatantly change usernames/ accounts telling is the same person and spending big (never happened to me tho but to people i know).

I have many custmers with 2-3 accounts. I don't know why though, But maybe 5-10 regulars of mine do that and they still use them all after this years. I think it's because some sort of rewards points system... but yeah you better report and support will take care of it.

I've seen some girls say penetration in block shows only. I've been tempted to do that. For now though I just shrug them off and tell them my vibrator wand thingy is what gets me off cause I'm clitoral. Then if they stay longer, I'll start to get in to it more where I need that toy, then they end up staying even longer cause they want to see but its a pain in the butt and most guys leave but I'm not jamming anything in me for a 2 min show. They can screw off with that noise.

i used to be that girl who would use the dildo right away or when they asked. i did hows today and long ones too and i never even took off my panties.. not even 1 time.
didnt even show pussy today. and made $170 or something.
i had to make changes.
it can be done. you just need to find your own way to express it to clients without pissing them off.
