Interesting thing about placement. I used to stay the fuck on for hours and never log out unless I took a meditation break. Now I log off for a few min after each good show and my placement is getting better. Not sure why, but it seems nice to not be falling down when I STFO for hours upon hours.

Hmm, I wonder if it’s the same guy having issues, username beginning with J? I’d rather it be one guy having problems than a site wide issue! Already pissed off this morning because it was glitchy and annoying
Sounds like the same guy! I didn’t stick around long enough to do any shows today but no one else had a similar issue yesterday, as far as I know.
He sounded genuine about it, like he was actually going to message support so we’ll see if he comes back with any news.

Mine began with a J too! So might be the same. I've had him before today and never had that problem

does anyone who uses a lovense toy for a tip vibe use the lovense bluetooth adapter, so you can use the app on your computer instead of your phone? i do this for people controlling my toy from the lovense remote app via my computer, but i wasn't sure if it would work for tip vibe functionality on SM, which seems to require the "lovense connect" mobile app as opposed to the "lovense remote."
edit: i just looked on lovense's FAQ and it says that "lovense connect" is in fact compatible with the bluetooth adapter. so has anyone successfully gotten their tip vibe to work this way on their PC, without having to go through the phone app?

can anyone in the top 500 (preferably actually ranked 400-500 or nearby) disclose roughly how much your "best three days" total is?
i fell into the 600s and would like to know how much i'd potentially have to hustle tonight in order to place. my best 3 days currently total around $775. (i've generally still hit my goals this week but basically had five steadily mediocre nights, which doesn't help much when they only count the best three.)

On streamate, I just use my iPhone app. Make sure your wireless and Bluetooth are turned on i AND you have to hit the stream button FIRST before it will show as connected. I just use the default tip setting on SM. I couldn’t change the default, but might look into later. That will get you started for now. I have a username on my lush as my SM name I just give them that to control my toys in Excl. Liz said it was okay.

I don’t mean to be negative but anyone else slow AF I figured I would watch some porn during my shift and learn some new tricks while I’m waiting. I’m gonna stay on till the end of my shift cause I can’t make money if I’m not on cam. I especially get mad at the guys who act like they want a show then leave. I’ve learned the guys who buy don’t waste a lot of time. Quite a few guys like that...the show must go on

I have a customer (not yet because he's not spent anything) who is constantly in free, then flicks in and out of private - how does he do this without being charged?
He keeps asking me to do a Gold show.
Only been streaming with SM for a couple of days, set up the account a long time ago but never used it mainly because I was having trouble getting the account set up - photos/ID rejected so focused on AW and VS. Got a lot of experience with those, so now a new environment to get used to BUT loving it.

He’s probably being cheap and purposefully trying to enjoy you for free. When I’m in private, if I’m near my keyboard/mouse, I really quickly click their notes box and write ‘P’ (for pvt) in there. That way, if they leave before being charged and come back in the future, either in free or private, then I know they’ve been in my show before for less than 2mins and I block them immediately.
I’m not necessarily saying you should block straight away if someone does that. Some people might give them a few chances or may even not mind. In my experience though, once they get away with it once, they just keep doing it so they don’t get another chance to with me.
I find a lot of the time it’s customer’s I’ve never even seen before. I’m sure they must hover over models rooms so they can see who’s in private and abuse it.

Ive been sending you've been blocked messages on Skype lately with a payment form and amount. Nothing yet but if they're labeled TW , they're getting the block. I can't deal with these "hey" every other day dudes in 2021.
They have to message you first or msgd in the past so you can reach out to them. He messaged me asking to be unblocked so I told him it’s 10 but he sent double lol

Another question do you accept C2C in group?
I was in group today with 1 guy, getting on fine no C2C, another came in sent a request for C2C I didn't know what to do just carried on the timer ran down and he was on. The other guy was fine but I think he left when he heard the guy on cam making noises. The reason for leaving next to his name was 'user referred to support' (or something like that).
It was a distraction, never had someone ask for C2C when there are others in the group on other platforms. The first person however was 'invisible', but either way was it rude of the other guy to request C2C?

Some models allow c2c in private, I don’t. I think when they’re all paying the same for a group show, no one should be getting special attention. When they try sending the cam request I decline it and explain I love c2c, but only when we’re alone in exclusive.

If it said 'user must contact support' that means they spent all their money on you. High five.
You can accept c2c in private and mute the gent's audio. That's what I do. I have no problem with them doing what they gotta do on cam or typing out their life story in group as long as the audio is off and their messages are set to private. It's easy enough to make generic words of appreciation/conversation so that the gent typing or the gent putting his best show on for you on c2c feels that you are acknowledging them, but also so the other viewers think you are making standard dirty talk and don't feel like they are only voyeurs to an exclusive show.
I also take requests in private but lots of models don't and that's cool. I apply the reasonable wanker test. If a reasonable man can get off to what I am doing then it's a ok for private. If it's the kind of thing that would make it weird for others to watch then I just redirect them to exclusive. If its reasonably wankable, but not what one of the later arriving gent's want, then they too are directed to exclusive.
This works a treat when you are managing a room of 3-4 in private and they each want a different, but reasonable show. You can very easily convince them to watch what is happening for now with the promise that their thing comes next and that they should enjoy the show until their part. 90% of them will agree and stay to watch what happening and because of the 'no weird shit' rule in private they can all 'make do' with what is going on. It won't droop any boners. It takes a rather frugal gentleman to cancel out of the private and pack away his equipment so he can wait for the next private and jump first to get his request, when he knows it's going to happen in the next 5 minutes or so anyway. But even if he does leave, by then he has to start all over again and you have another decent length private on your hands and the whole lets take turns shenanigans starts over. By taking even a very limited number of requests I find it justifies a higher rate for private (and because of that a higher exclusive rate also). There are more return customers also because if they loved the last show they will come back knowing that they can get the same again, but they will also come back to see a different show another day. If they know that a private is a generic show they might only come back for it a few times or not at all.
I try very hard to make sure everyone has the perception that they are treated equally to others in privates as they are all paying the same for the service at the end of the day. Level 5s will understand and go exclusive if they want full control and level 0's are more likely to return.
That being said, if you can sneak in ways to make them FEEL like they are getting a better deal (like the silent c2c or generic, whole room inclusive responses to their private messages then for sure do it.

I took this week off because of the contest. I'll get back on tonight and back to normal. I had to deal with some mental health shit anyways and I got it straightened out so I don't regret not working. I'm moving and applying for a new apt and just deciding where I want to live. As a cam girl, I can go anwhere. I hate where I am now. I've narrowed it down to either salt lake city...even though im not a mormon...or NWA (nw arkansas/bentonville area). I hear great things about that place. AR is much cheaper so that is a plus but it's a 2 day drive for me because I"m terrified to stop and stay at a hotel due to covid. I'm super high risk and would rather take a nap in the car. So....i hope the ladies that did grind it out during a SM contest got some good $$. You are better than me...lol.

Thanks so much about the C2C next question is about star rating, so I got up to 5 stars from the starting standard of 4, then someone today left me a 1 bringing it right down again.
Do guys randomly do this is is an error, is it just I can't please everyone? Was smiles most of the day, accepted few fetish, role plays, requests to pop a wig on. All taken in my stride as well as the usual stuff, loads of happy guys and someone sent me gold after a private with them. Had a word with my lurker. SM will now let me offer Gold shows.

Perfectly said. This is close to how I run my private. It is great to be assertive with your own boundaries within the private but you need to be open to different ways to run the show for optimal customer retention and increased profit for yourself. Sometimes you have to train a guy. They see what a tip gets them, doesn’t give them enough, so they go exclusive next time, then tips there. All within your boundaries and the sites rules. They are also trying to feel you out themselves.
also some guys are real chill and are perfect for privates. The same ones who drive us crazy when they never talk.

I am not online so I don't know. However, if you wanna check if is streamate or if is your internet search dslreports.com, do speedtest there. If bufferloat is C , then that explains why your internet is not stable despite speedtest being ok. Results A and B are perfect, no bufferloat. You will realise when you do the speedteste on dslreports. Don't forget evenings everyone is connected on your broadband network.

9/10 times the ones who want to tip for it in free want to tip boob prices for pussy anyway. Maybe a little more. Often a lot less. I have come across a number of 'name your price' guys though, who like to look like a billy big bollocks to the other guys in the room. I tell them its triple digits and only in a 0 gold show, then and I'll show everyone in the room for 1 minute. It has worked a bunch of times over the years, plays within the rules and keeps everyone happy. I'd never advertise it on room topic or anything but it works as a way to encourage them to pay up or move on and stops them nagging you. They asked for something and I state the price. Stops going round in circles with the 'but other girls do it all the time'.

flashing pussy will be:
a request everyday - kick him- some guys just need to be told that is only in private.
girls doing it daily- report them with a screenshot
streamate will tell all of us to screenshot it, usually a instant ban for 24 hrs if not more

Silly question regarding this, what if you can't actually SEE pussy but the model is clearly nude below the waist? I've seen a few where they are completely naked but are tilted to the side so it's not actually showing. I'd regard this as the same as breaking the rules but is it a sneaky way to circumvent them? I sound like a right prude (ironic, given my job!) but I make them pay for EVERYTHING, no free tits, panties, ass - pay, fuckers!
