I don't think its helpful (for me at least) to focus on placement. If your hardware and internet speed are sufficient there is nothing you can do about it. Looking at placement can get me in a bad mindset if its not where I want it to be. Instead, focus on good shows so you get 5 star ratings and working more hours. Plus, it can fluctuate literally every few minutes.
For me personally, that works better :)
I haven't looked at my placement in like 3 years lol. It really doesn't matter.

How does everyone deal with tips for gold menu items but not actually tipped using the gold menu? I’ll do the option provided they tell me that’s what they’re tipping for but I just had a guy tip $11 in $1 increments then get pissy when I didn’t flash my tits? I explained that I thought those tips were for my tipvibe as he hadn’t told me otherwise, so I’d get them out for another 5gold. Another guy came in and tipped the 5g so the first guy mentioned this, but like, that’s not how it works? This wasn’t a Gold Show, and I’m on SM not a token site. Am I unreasonable for saying no? Feel a bit of a bitch, probably should have just done it as he did pay. I may put a note on my profile saying to use the actual Gold Menu when tipping for those options to stop any confusion.

No these guys are just idiots don’t worry about it. He’s being cheap. It’s not like he tipped you $20 or $50 gold. But you can put it your profile.

You’ve just sent me great tip vibes. Soon as I read that, I got a guy in tipping $50 and $60s at a time. Thanks! :)

who else is having an extremely difficult shift? my last money earned was 3 1/2 hours ago. i had at least 10-15 regulars attempt to go into paid chat with me and they all gave up because they're getting errors and getting pissy, giving up after trying to make things work so many times. something is up because when i refreshed my stream and went to click stream the button was gone and said 'finish your application' or something along those lines and when i checked for myself i was nowhere to be found.

If they tip me in ones QUICKLY I often do the associated gold menu item. Usually only for the first flash, or if it is a good tipping regular. I get that people wouldn’t want to do it that way, sometimes if the guy is an annoyance I won’t show anything until it is done off the menu. I have this habit that won’t go away that when I get a big tip over like 100 I do everything on the gold menu, at least if it is someone new. It’s like I don’t want them to harass me after they tipped big, hoping that would make me start to dildo myself. I feel bad for their stupidity and financial irresponsibility... to an extent

Yesterday I was live but wasn’t being seen, so I stopped my stream and logged back in and I was ok. Another lady mentioned it too on Twitter, think it’s just a glitch but if you had a very quiet room I would double check but it’s ok if you log out then back in again.

I usually ask: “Was that for a request or for me (I wear a tip toy also)?”. Fuck it, sometimes I don’t ask and don’t even care. If they want something, they better talk and make their request load and clear. Don’t read minds, unfortunately. If they get bitter, I will mention this last part.
If rude people can ask for free shit, I expect paying customers to open their mouths also.

Yeah, when I get big tips or continuous tips I do show some stuff but tipping $1 11 times I assumed was just for the tip vibe, I wasn’t gonna go in and count to make sure there was $11 there while I’m trying to entertain my room.

Something is wrong I'm not sure what but ya the last few days been rough like earning 1/3 of what's normal for me. I'm getting TONS of traffic too.. in and outs constantly more than normal. None of them are spending.Most arent even chatting. A TON of people from YEARS ago who never spent a dime and STILL arent. I cant see anything wrong with my stream when I check it. Im guessing I just got put in the less successful group whenever they said they were doing testing for what increased spending as far as snapshots vs bio pic. I don't mind them running tests like that but damn I didn't think it would be THAT big of a difference LOL

Yes! Didn’t get paid until 7pm Friday after chasing up twice and no pay yet today. Had to ask twice on WhatsApp again before I got a response today and all they said was, they can’t control the banks. I got an AW payout fine though. Frustrated as fuck as I’m on dailypay and usually in by 12pm without fail, and messages are answered promptly.

Not showing up logged out for the first stream. Restarted stream and still couldn't be found, but I got a show. Logged into my member account and I'm where I usually am, but logged out I wasn't showing up on the first 3 pages. Restarted stream again and found myself logged out 2 rows lower than yesterday's placement.
I know I haven't made as much as I can with almost 40 hrs streamed, but to drop 2 rows in less than 24 hrs just bugs me a bit. If it wasn't for my member account I'd be discouraged.
Placement is such a pain and totally confusing.
I see lots of new faces on the first page and lots of first page girls now pushed to second. I cant even find myself either right now. Doesnt help I'm dropped to four stars cause guys suck and cant rate after their shows.
Edit to add as I posted this I finally got a small show and he rated me 5 so I can finally update back to 5 stars whenever they update those and I'm good till January haha.

Yeah I never normally wait any later than like 2-3pm on weekly pay. Maybe it’s to do with the holiday in America. AW is paid via a different system isn’t it.
I googled it and apparently this isn’t an unheard thing with Transferwise and sometimes people wait for like 3-4 days for international payments. I hope it’s not that long. It’s been stressing me out a bit today, I like to know what’s going on.

Its been sent out to select models and only available to select members, will roll out sitewide soon. Essentially members earn loyalty points to spend on us and can choose a set level of "gifts" / $$ to give us, possibly offline? It does not say when it starts.

I was thinking about changing over to weekly or POR but I’ve been wary to incase of issues like this, at least I’ve only been waiting around for a days pay. Mines short from the weekend, but not by much. No sign of today’s pay from yesterday yet. Hope it gets sorted and don’t be afraid to keep on at them for a response, it’s your money afterall

I'd stick with wire. Adding a middle man is undesirable IMO. As long as SM keep offering direct payment I'm gonna take it. Having been through payoneer, first choice, and paxum issues I jumped on the wire option so fast.
Break down the fees, not sure how it will work in practice as I have never used it but it says free to receive money. 3.99% currency conversion +£4.94 to withdraw. I guess it depends on what currency Streamate pay into your Skrill account. Ifthey send GBP it might be worth considering but someone who actually uses it would be better to provide an accurate calculation on the fees.

Hey ladies, been lurking here for the past few months. Thought I was going to retire from Cam, but in August I got the "I love you but I am not in love with you" from my Husband. He moved out two weeks ago and I am struggling with logging on but really need to. Streamate has been my main site for about 8 years. So you single ladies out there any advice? I have always been the second income, not anymore... On a good note I am excited about the new wishlist on the site!!!
