I noticed the same!! I banked Sunday then it tanked for me.

just curious, what are your rates (if you don't mind me asking).

Congrats on your placement :)


I’m at 669/999 right now.

It’s pretty obvious that whatever machine learning peeps they are using for contractors didn’t want to start till the work week. Good for them, but resulted in some of the weirdest traffic patterns I’ve seen in a contest. We got through. Congrats!

Hello All... does anyone here use the Paxum payment method? The Paxum Q&A thread has been dormant for over a year. I'm having some trouble accessing my account due a new bs verification process that I must complete when I first log in, but it has some major glitches that don't allow it to complete, and if hasn't completed, you can't access your account. I get a similar problem using the app, which boots me out after clicking the last confirm button.

I'd be interested to know if anyone else is having the same problems....

I too had this problem... Just keep doing it and give it a day or two to see if they approve the doc and pic and if not, do it again. Try doing it on the phone with the app or just Chrome browser. Is what i did. With the PC i had no luck.

The only good enough reason not to stay to the end of the contest is death }:D
Haha I am joking same goes for me I had some people messaging “are you aright? We are worried , you normally stay to the end lol has something Bad happened ?
Cause they know that even if I am ill with corona and high fever I take pills and stay on until I pass out lol
It’s funny they thought I am rather dead than not just participate

i know you arent even joking.
thats why you win in life
thats the difference right there of why i am not a top model on this site.

I hadn't tried to access my account for several months. I have $300 I need to get off, but I can't access my account due to this problem. I've sent some emails to support about it.

Did you solve the problem and gain access to your account?

A lot of my GOLD menu items have the high tip vibe chime & I get that urge to go "mmmmm" like it set off the vibe lolollll. I feel this. But sometimes I hear it off menu & respond positively anyway cause it's a high tip. I don't moan, but I do get a lil body reaction cause of the sound.


Someone said Pavlov & that's it exactly lllolll.

In my case my ID, address and phone number have long ago been verified. I just had to confirm that they are the same as before... but now they were asking questions about the source of my money and even which sites I'm working on. It's so messed up that it's not even possible to complete the form from a browser (PC) or the mobile app.

7 years I've been with them and they always manage to mess things up.

big bum you are very hard on yourself! I’m pretty sure lucky goldfish fish has been camming for a substantial time and practice makes perfect as they say. Also you have to build up to doing that many hours, it’s a bit like exercise, you don’t start running 10 miles if you aren’t used to it, same goes for camming, you build up to it. Sure there are some overnight successes on cam but I think you’ll find most top earning models didn’t start off as top at all, so chill out, do your best you will get there but don’t put yourself down xx

It’s a bit pricey, but I use Tatcha cleansing oil to remove my makeup and following it with the Tatcha rice powder to gently exfoliate. It’s the best skin care I’ve tried so far and makes my skin feel so soft and supple after a long days makeup

agreed, love their products xx

awww thanks! yes i for sure see it as a positive thing actually!!! i mean it in a good way!
this thread is so inspiring. i am not really competitive with regards to contest ranking or comparing myself to others, but more so i am doing it to meet my goals for life.
i inspire to be better, to make more money.
i have to make things happen. or else.
and in order to do that i need to make more hours. and not make excuses.
i want that FRENCH LONG STAY VISA LIKE NOWWWW. but i need to earn it.
and not settle for less.

Hii, I’ve been camming since 2016 originally on AW and only just started on SM about a month ago! That contest almost killed me off and I was convinced that it was just me losing my touch haha glad yesterday was like night and day! Congratulations to those in the contest who got what they wanted :D I use to be able to do 16hr days but noway could I could I now haha you girls inspire me! It would be super nice to get to know some of you as this has been my full time work for a few years now so I don’t have any friends really, and lockdowns haven’t helped with that over the past year. Anyway sorry for the long message, I hope you’re all having a nice Monday morning!

Hi darling, small steps equal big rewards cos they add up over a year.... so for example you can say I’m gonna do an extra hour a day on cam, this adds up over a year. Don’t push yourself mega hard, it only creates burn out especially if you aren’t used to it. Girls who have been camming years are used to it mentally. If you push too hard, you end up failing and then beat yourself up! Bit like diets, limit yourself too much, you end up cheating and feeling crap.
To be amazing on cam does take time, experience and confidence and all this takes time x

Hello seal! I totally feel you..I’m new to the forum and also looking forward to making some friendships with people in the industry. The job itself is so isolating not to mention the world shuttting down. I’ve also moved to a new state last year so it’s been tough making friends with ALL of that lol btw- that was personally my worst contest I’ve had in about a year and was also thinking it’s me. But if you’re anything like me, I put WAY too much pressure on myself during contest weeks

Am I the only one getting a shit ton of traffic pop in and most of it going right out the window this morning?

I had a shit ton of it my 4 hr midnight shift. There was sooooo much traffic but in then right back out. My stats were all excellent, checked my stream both logged out and in, still all fucked up and weird!

I hope it stops for this day shift I'm about to attempt.

Hello seal! I totally feel you..I’m new to the forum and also looking forward to making some friendships with people in the industry. The job itself is so isolating not to mention the world shuttting down. I’ve also moved to a new state last year so it’s been tough making friends with ALL of that lol btw- that was personally my worst contest I’ve had in about a year and was also thinking it’s me. But if you’re anything like me, I put WAY too much pressure on myself during contest weeks

I think everyone does hun, you can’t help but get caught up in it. I don’t really bother with them, I do my hours and if I rank high then I’m chuffed but I never stay on past my 35 hours really to do really well. Mentally I find it hard, I’m building myself up slowly to do more, if I feel it is right for me to do but I don’t put pressure on myself x

Have you noticed that since the changes with flag is more HD when looking at cams and no more significant bitrate issues? I rarely see anyone pixelating now, much more crisper streams now. Hope that will result in better traffic retained (paying one of course).

You know why right? Contest week: girls fighting for every gold, 500 vids for 5$, jumping around , 1$ Gold shows and lots of teasing and smiles and then Sunday it all stops :D Finita La Commedia
They are like wtf where is it all gone
And those who did pay are recovering from big financial losses

That makes sense. However, oddly, Sunday I made the most I've ever made in the least amount of hours. That usually happens for me Sun after contest. Sometimes it's bad, but most times it's good--by my standards lololll.

But you make a valid point. That is all true. I do not offer specials on contests. I stream like I usually do. It's my lack of hustle that makes contests horrible for me.

I need some input...I had a customer tell me about getting someone under 18 pregnant awhile ago (probably lying), I changed the subject, he says "I feel like I'm boring you." Luckily, I didn't get a bad rating and the show ended normally. Once, a guy mentions that stuff do we just cut him off? It was disturbing.

I mean it depends on the kinda show or where you are in the show. Like if we were just talking or setting up a role play, I would probably just make a joke and basically be “we gotta keep this 18+” if it is during the sex I will be a bit firmer, and more like announce that we can’t do it. If they didn’t mean to be a creep they get it. I find it has way less drama just to acknowledge the no no. If they keep pushing or being weird I block.

There's been an obscene amount of f*ck machines being used in free chat. The sad part is, these are BEAUTIFUL ladies who could easily become top earners if they stopped doing it all for free in free chat

Always honor your own internal guidance. When in doubt don’t. That being said, I feel there’s a bit of nuance in the fact sometimes it’s hard to set boundaries when you need the money or aren’t sure what to do or say.

I just ignore it and change the subject. If they say something again, I tell them I could lose my platform and give them an alternative (For example if they call me mom, I tell them im there friends mom instead of mom). The third time I stop the show.

I feel like some of these guys are in desperate need of therapy and sometimes setting boundaries are exactly what these guys need. We’re doing society a favor.
