^^^ Like we did not know already lol, nothing new but I guess they wanna put the info up for the new models who don't know where to look up the info.
On a side note, I am baffled by the lack of traffic, it's simply dead or if they come in they leave right away ☹️
I moved to SM from AW and a reg from there asked where I had gone, I told him, giving him my cam models link. Anyhow he went to sign up and told me there was no way he was giving them personal ID proof of address etc. Has this always been the case or is this new? If it’s new might explain the traffic

No its just a credit card and an email.
He didnt try and sign up as a model by accident did he? 😂

I think it's because he is from the UK? that new law that passed, I'm not quite informed but I'm pretty sure it's because of that. Maybe someone else could explain better :)

Do you guys like the snapshot thing? I find it annoying, it takes me 20 minutes to get the picture right. Its such a slow down when you're ready to hop on cam and get going.
I don't mind it. I just wish we had more than 3 seconds. 3 seconds isn't nearly enough time to pose imo

i know one thing, the logging in and out is driving me up the wall. lots of traffic but nobody can stay connected and try various times before giving up. anyone else experiencing this today or the last several days? such a pain

Yes, for the past 2 days am having lot of in and out or bizarre where the guys park in my room and won't say anything, 60-80 potentials and very little traffic or period of time like 10 minutes without anyone in room. Very discouraging. I made little money the past 2 days only from regulars. My connection is fine, I checked and rechecked everything. Dunno what the clutch...

Can I ask please how long do you ladies spend doing the things on your gold menu? I tend to give about a minute I guess although I don't time it or anything so it could be a bit longer. Is that about right would you say?

I like the fact that I can update with my most recent pedicure (I'm a foot fetish girl), but it does take a bit to pose and fit myself in the frame right. I usually have to take a couple images before I feel it's right so that's a little time consuming. I wish the preview was bigger so I could actually see how good the shot is and I really wish we had more time.

A minute for myself unless it's twerk which is 25 GOLD. In that case it's twerking for a few minutes.

i am having the same issues as the above posts i am usually a top earner but today has been extra slow.
lots of ins and outs and no one says anything and when i ask them to order something they just leave.
^^^ I was thinking it's me only, i logged off in tears after 4 hrs of doing absolutely nothing on a friday night, not even one gold, just ins and outs and the same, who talked wanted free stuff or left when i asked for gold/ pvt.
This is definitely not right, i mean i can feel this is weird traffic, bots maybe? I dont know but it's very discouraging, i get all dolled up for nothing.
I tried stripchat but after the 2 weeks promotion the traffic drops significantly if u not doing what everyone does there, i am not the model type to do nude shows in public so score dropped as time passed, the extreme things i saw on that site in free gave me nightmares.
Soo worried on SM, son moved out in summer and he pays rent, own bills and expenses, he can help me yes but i wish my own stable income.

It takes me an eternity to get a good snapshot- but I usually say eff it-lol

Makes sense, SM wont open member accounts to people from certain countries/ of certain nationalities, people that are high risk of fraud.
SM has mainly western countries members & australians, people that are known to pay and are of lower risk of fraud.
That's why we dont have chargebacks on SM, some member accounts can slip thorough but not many.
I had a member of my nationality in E.Europe and i smelled something is not right, he said he was living in Western Europe, he came pvt and we just talked a little, i told him i wont get naked for him; then after a few days he came back with another member account so then i knew he was a fraud, i asked why new account and he said the old account wont work anymore.
I blocked him and reported.

Also porn is against the law in the Saudi Arabia, he had to and has been using tech to mask that so he could access the site. For fraud, they would have very little power collecting on “illegal” transactions. I am honestly surprised that they didn’t mention anything about this in the email he sent.

I feel you doll you aren't alone ! It was same for me only not at night time. Hours of $0. I think the message said they are only doing the testing for 1 week so our earnings should be back to normal next week. I did get a couple clip sales though. It annoys me that I cannot get 5 weeks of consistently similar earnings. There is always 2 or 3 good or great weeks and then a contest to bring me down to minimum wage.
Stripchat disgusts me. They have the most disgusting people for traffic imaginable and they don't care about model abuse. How they portray themselves after some of the absolutely disgusting things I see the models and TOP PROMOTED models are continually allowed to do on there. Lots of straight up illegal shit.

wondering if this is a known issue or not since I haven't been on streamate much the past couple months --
I just realized that I have missed a TON of messages, because they weren't showing up in the classic messenger which is what my inbox defaults to.
I was online last night and someone asked if I got their message and I said no, so I went and checked and clicked to the new "Messenger Mode" and I realized I had a ton of unseen/new messages from the past several months.
It's weird because a few random messages from customers did make it through to the classic inbox, as well as anything directly from Streamate, so I had no idea this was an issue until now.
Are we basically required to use the new Messenger now in order to see everything?
edit: also, the way pics show up in the new messenger is interesting. They are there in the message but blurred until you click them. Does this mean they are all safe to open? (I generally exercise caution when opening/downloading an actual attachment from someone in the classic inbox.)

^^Yeah, we are supposed to get a notification on the messenger mode when there are new messages, but mine isn't working.
When someone on ACF mentioned they had a bunch of messages in the messenger area I checked and sure enough I too had a lot of messages. This was like 1.5 months ago I think. I felt like an asshole as lots of members were wanting to do shows.

It doesn't matter anymore whether there's a contest or not. I have to work double or triple the hours I used to in order to make the amount of money I've been making for years. They've fucked the site up so much that it's so hard to make good money anymore. I don't even concern myself with whether there's a contest or not, I just do as many hours as humanly possible just to pay bills from week to week. Fuck their bonuses and prizes, they can kiss my ass.

Took me like 20 min to take it and then i had a hard time to find it. I was hard to be seen even for me ;D

I can see them not logged into my member account. I forget, we’re they using models or customers as the test group to see what is better? Did they tell us? Sometimes those emails are a little open for interpretation.

LMAO I'm guilty of posting titty snapshots. But it's only because I know we're on pornhub and I want to hide my face in case someone I know is quickly browsing through! I'll just be another pair of titties lost in a sea of boobs hopefully instead of someone I know seeing my face all of a sudden :P

Mine goes down in free chat sometimes..
So, I just now saw (looking from my laptop) some asshole made a shit comment about my show from a yr ago.
I just got 3 - 5star ratings (2 from the same guy tho). They took away a star from me??
Better put it back!
I emailed support to ask if they'll remove..they used to, we'll see
I'd like to know bad well, thanks
I was told that because i am in E. Europe i need to use a proxy server or vpn but even with the proxy server i dont see the snapshots, still the old profile pictures including my own.
I dont know how fast it's updating, if taken another one manually after i sign into a show, how long til its updating, this seems to be a big deal for people outside the western countries who cant see these snapshots and for the ones with geoblock on who cant see how they appear in the listings, it's like a blind feature, u take the picture and dont know much how is working actually.

i was wondering how many non-US gals get paid via wire transfer, and specifically how reasonable you find the exchange rate to be? especially any of you in the UK getting paid in GBP? i'm having a nightmare trying to get paid at the moment - i had a check from the end of september get lost in the post, and i waited the 45 days to get it reissued because i didn't want to pay the $25 fee and i figured i had another cheque on the way, but then THAT was delayed.... i finally got the initial cheque added onto a more recent cheque, but now the bank have sent it for 'collection' which means i now have to wait until possibly mid-january to receive it, which sucks because that was like a month's earnings altogether. NOW, the fucking bank are taking ages to process ANOTHER more recent cheque.... basically i'm yet to receive over half of my earnings from the past 3 months and i'm deep in my overdraft and getting charged interest when i actually SHOULD be in quite a good financial position right now. it's so stressful! i'm wondering if i can just switch to a wire transfer and get all of it reissued so it's in my account by friday? i'm so fucking done with the bank - i used to think it was a good deal because the exchange rate was decent, but even that seems to be a worse deal now. i've half a mind to just close my account because they've fucked me around so much - between the cheque charges and interest i just have no desire for them to receive another penny of my money.
