Trying to make myself feel better, I wish that i could find my memorial day weekend post from the past. surely I posted it was dreadfully slow and it was slow the whole week after. I feel like it starts like it did this week but I fucked myself in the beginning of the week not working much "ill make up for it later" bullshit. every time i fucking do that shit, i end up regretting.
I think this is the holiday that I hate on cam.

I think we really do have one we hate, for me it’s Valentine’s Day. I apparently never do anything on Memorial Day, because I always work extra hours. When your regs come back from whatever obligations they have hopefully they make it up extra.

This is probably a dumb question but does it make any difference to contact Support if my placement is majorly fucked during the contest? I'm typically on the 1st or 2nd page depending on the time of day I stream, but ever since yesterday afternoon I have been on page 7-8. :(

This had always been common for me during contest. There are more performers on so it affects everyone’s placement. Sometimes in just a minor way sometimes in a major way

edited to add*** don’t worry too much about your placement, I made a post recently how I’ve had better hourly earnings when I had lower placement on many occasions. My earnings don’t really differ based on placement. Traffic differs but that doesn’t equal more earnings necessarily

No it's still there but the mods have instituted a verification Bot so if your name on Discord isn't the same as it is on Streamate or you have geoblock than you will need to message Chris directly & he will add you back as the bot would have booted you.

Darn! I couldn't work the first 25% bonus...had bad weather and power outages for 2 days...but it's all stable now. I only have 3 days to cam before i move so I'm on it. Goal is 800 in 3 days. I can do that. Just want to get the extra cash for moving expenses. I have lot of funds in savings I just don't want to tap those for the trip. But when I really think about it...how lucky are we that just with the thought..."hey..I can hop online and just make a quick extra 800 in a few days."?? what other job lets you do that?:D..other than escorting or stripping..or robbing a bank. I grouse about the ups and downs of camming but in the end..the opportunities are always there. You just gotta do the work. Get that cash ladies and happy memorial day to the US ladies!

yeah...because everything is gitchy. I ended up doing a gold show for a guy cause a guy said the private button didn’t work! Grrr!!!! I think guys keep getting booted off. A guy tried to go cam 2 cam and got kickoff and he didn’t come back. Very frustrating. Don’t give up! At least if you stay on you get your hours.

Earlier someone here mentioned that there are users on SM who take you pvt/ excl and then leave almost immediately, just to fuck up your traffic/placement.
Is it really so? Just had some fucker jumping in my pvt out of nowhere and then leaving in some seconds.It made me think of that post. :/

yes happens mostly during contests, very annoying but there’s not much you can do about it. I’ve had it happen before when I’ve had a full room, they take u just to clear your room out. These deserve bad karma

I've just been in the middle of a long show and my video went black, then SM connect said my camera was in use elsewhere, then next my streaming connection was lost 2secs later!

I went back to my computer to see what's happened, and somehow, SM connect had switched from the web to the external encoder mid show when I wasn't even near the computer or keyboard. Wtf is that about?! Customer is nowhere to be seen now aswell. What a pain

Every once and a while I will get a guy who takes me pvt, they'll stay for a minute or two and then after teasing them, and I finally get comfy and I am laid back, legs spread.....they'll turn their cam off and leave super quick. I had a guy just do this and I stopped the show before he could as a way of being like, don't waste my time. it kind of hits my self esteem... like do I really look THAT bad?? lol. I don't hide what I look like. They could just be cheap guys who think I didn't get naked quick enough.

Not sure if that just happens to me or what but whether its me, or them being cheap its always frustrating/disheartening, Like I'm feeling myself, Your dicks out, I just took off all my clothes, for you to just leave? -___-

I think a lot of the time they’re just being cheap and once they’ve seen what they wanted to see they run off and go and wank over the visualisation. Some don’t seem to want the show, they just want to quickly see what they wanna see so they can stroke. Ie your tits, or your naked body or whatever.

If I get a guy who’s nagging me to get my top off ASAP, I
take as long as I wanna take but if he bolts the very second he sees my tits, I’m not remotely surprised. I agree that it’s annoying though!

Not true. They won't remove ratings in shows under 3 minutes no matter what. I've argued with support relentlessly about it on several occasions. So unless you're lucky or special you'll have to contact Liz to have them removed.

I recently had no issues. I messaged support and told them I got rated 1 star for not providing nudity in private when I told the guy mutiple times and had it in my profile that I dont. I never provided a screen shot or anything but did provide the time and member name. They removed it.

I've got lot's of bs ones removed & never contacted Liz. It sounds like you have been unlucky & got douchey support staff.

^^ Have you also gave them the member name & a explanation of why the poor rating was undeserved? I can get 1 & 2 star ones removed.

Yep, screenshot and emailed them back and forth explaining that the member was clearly abusive and asking for things I didn't do. I've been told 4 times that ratings on any show 3 minutes or less can't be removed. This has only been since they made that stupid rule though. I never used to have any problems having them removed. So now I just kick members out that I feel will rate poorly before that 3 minute mark.

Here's what they said in one email:
"Hello,
>
> The customer rating you are requesting we remove is for a paid session
> lasting longer than 3 minutes.
>
> To maintain the accuracy of performer ratings, we will not be removing
> this rating. We are happy to assist with removing rates for shorter
> sessions lasting fewer than 3 minutes to avoid these building up
> and reflecting poorly on your overall star rating.
>
> Ratings are intended for members to leave their honest opinion or
> feedback for others to see. Not all users are expected to leave 5
> star ratings. We encourage performers to ask members who have
> positive experiences to rate their show. When your account is rated
> often, the effect of a single low rating is minimal.
>
> If you still feel you have been rated unfairly, please provide details
> about what happened in the paid chat session and we would be happy
> to look into it for you. However, we do not guarantee that the star
> rating will be removed.
>
> Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with."

Then I responded saying that the show was exactly 3 minutes and he clearly asked for something I have listed in my profile that I don't offer, so how is that fair? Also sent a screenshot of the chat and my profile.

This was their second response:

"Our apologies, if the session is three minutes or longer, it will not be deleted.

If the session is two minutes and fifty-nine seconds or less, it can be deleted.

Thanks for your understanding in this matter."

Recently, support didn't even respond to me when I asked for 2 ratings removed, one was less then a minute and the other was less then 3 minutes and the guy was a dick. I had screenshots of him, but not of 1 minute loser (because there was nothing there). Didn't bother Liz because my overall rating is fine. I think I deserved a response at least

Can I ask why it matters getting bad ratings removed? Unless you have very few ratings in total it doesn't impact the overall rating as it's the average of 90 days. And it's not like customers can see the poor rating. Why does it matter? I must be missing something like it affects placement but I'd love to know! I know it's annoying but what effect would a bad rating have?

I think it can affect placement. Ages ago I got two 1 star ratings in a short time period, like within a couple of days of each other I think and after the second one my placement dropped 2 or 3 rows. I can't say for definite it was the ratings but there was no other obvious explanation for it! It didn't fix til one was removed either

Thanks Jenna, I thought it might be related to that. Another of SM's mystery factors regarding placement.... :)

Being a Domme and doing mostly non-nude shows I get a lot of guys not reading my profile and then rating poorly when I won't start fucking my pussy. I'm not a top model and I don't get a ton of ratings, so a few ratings under 5 stars within a 3 month period will knock my overall rating down to 4.5 stars fairly easy and my placement tanks. It's super important to get these removed for my income.

Sure, I get that, I meant if it was one or two that didn't affect your rating otherwise that's all.

I get lots of 5-s and still 1 negative rating cost me couple rows down x
