I'm going to give into my curiosity here and ask... has anyone heard of anyone being suspended from SM for any reason within the last month? I know it's a strange question, but I'm noticing some strange and very obvious things lately.

I didn't mean for it to sound all mysterious. It's just that placement seems to be really weird lately, so there are models at the very top who are normally a lot farther down. A LOT of panty raffles, nudity, etc. But it's not covert or infrequent. And there hasn't been anyone on here talking about being suspended lately. So I'm just curious if SM is no longer suspending models. Now, the only time I see what others are doing is when I'm checking my placement & hop into free chat if I see something interesting, so maybe I'm just noticing what was already there. I am not gonna sit around for hours watching other models. It's just something I'd noticed in passing & it made me curious. Not trying to start drama about what other models do or anything :) I'm simply curious if they've kind of given up enforcing rules like MFC or something.

I haven't heard of suspensions but I notice a lot of girls are tweeting out other sites and not sm. Now you have me curious. Why are these girls tweeting other sites, going to MFC etc... Did something happen? hmm, The tweets Im seeing may have nothing to do w what you are observing. I watch tweets more than cams to see what is going on

I did hear they are no taking any more bullshit about models openly speaking/trashing other models. How true that is, IDK. They are handing out 72 hour suspensions for that but that is in the rumor mill, its not a fact. (It would be nice, but im not positive if its a fact)

I hope not...

I have noticed placement being weird though lately, not so much with the panties tho... It seems the same girls are still doing them as normal (studio girls)

the other night I saw a girl raffling off flesh lights, now she could have been doing that on MFC bc when some on SM asked her she seemed vague about it, not as talkative. I was watching not logged on as a customer.

SM swears we are not allowed to do this BUT have you noticed more MFC models? bc I have and what Im thinking is they are talking to MFC and SM is jumping in bc they hear this and they hear her say give me your addy etc and SM customers are saying "where do I buy this fleshlight" sooooooo I wonder

There is also a profie picture up that is all pussy .... type is the search bar "Tempting" I did to make sure of something and a few profiles popped up , one was pussy in your face and she hasnt cammed since march

I guess what's weird is I'm pretty sure a lot of these girls are not in studios. I know for a fact one isn't; she started at the same time as I & is in the same category. She's been doing panty raffles like crazy & running games in her room like she's on MFC. I'm not about to go investigating or anything, I just got curious.

It would be great if they are suspending for trash talking. That's so unacceptable & unnecessary. Even though I'm mentioning (here) what I've seen some other girls are doing, I'm not about to trash them to customers or talk about them on cam.

Either we're talking about the same person or there is more than one doing that. That's the kind of thing I'm talking about. They're getting brazen.

I hate it when guys ask me if I'm selling my panties or how much they are. I tell them it's not allowed and it's all "well I saw so-and-so doing it."

Ugh.

If big spenders are happy with raffles, my guess is the raffles will stay.

theyre would have to be enuf girls willing to risk it before they see it works if it does and im not willing to take that risk plus the fact stuff like going on on SM is making it more like MFC and id worry about what SM would be like if that happened ....

Thanks! I just don't want some guy typing it on there and ME getting in trouble. I'm not mentioning it and I'm not trying to get anyone to type it on there.
On a different note... The past 2 days when I go to use the encoder my cam isn't getting picked up on it. Anyone know if this is just another sm glitch? I had no problem just using regular HD. Thanks ladies.

I tell them it's against the contract I signed and that maybe other girls have a different contract. That always shuts them up.

why are guys still asking for it? i had a guy come onto my room ask for it told him that service is down throughout the whole site then he left right after that so i know he left because i told him no phone. I wonder how many times hes gonna ask before he gets it if he wont take a girl pvt unless they phone with him.

Call me skeptical, but sometimes I wonder if some guys are just bullshitting when they say "Aw, too bad...I was gonna take you private." LOL. Like if they're just saying that to make it APPEAR as though they intended to spend money on you. On MFC there have been times when I was on my period, and guys would claim they had wanted to take me private. I'm wondering how many of them are for real, and how many of them are just saying that to be BSing...lol.

I think the phone thing might be a different issue, but yes, I believe some of them just say that. If you were a broke guy who is freeloading but looking to not get kicked or banned, that might sound like a reasonable lie.

I make sure that I'm never the one to type or say the "forbidden words". I don't think it matters what the customers type. Then I can type "no" or "I can't" or "not allowed", and I often type something like that just before banning. I wouldn't report guys for asking for off site contact or anything like that because support is just confused enough to think you're reporting yourself or something LOL.

The encoder no longer likes me. Today I had compliant after compliant about my stream lagging and my sound fading in and out. I switched to HD high and wallah no more problems. I guess I'll finally start working towards an i7. It really sucks that I have a semi new computer and have to buy a brand new one just for SM. But whatever such is life right.

What are you running in the background (check your task manager if using windows)? I use an i3 with 6GB of space left on my harddrive and until today (just upgraded internet, woohoo!) had upload speeds of .5mbps-1.0mbps and I really haven't had many encoder issues.

I only have the encoder, google chrome (tried using I.E.), and manycam running. My cpu usage is at 100%. I closed manycam and it made no difference. I have 7.74gb left but its not an i computer its only a amd dual core 2.30ghz. I do want to upgrade my internet but I doubt that's going to make a difference. I even lowered my bit and frame rate. I dunna what happened, my computer was able to handle the encoder like a week ago now its like bitch no don't even try it lol.

04-29-2013, 01:12 PM
I find manycam really sucks my CPU, so I stopped using it. When you stopped it running did you reboot your computer before logging back into SM and the encoder? If not try that first, you never know.

Thought I would join this thread. I am from the UK and mainly cam on adultwork as I am a domme but have recently been approved for SM. Will do a few hours on there tomorrow, support approved my price increase request which I was surprised about as I haven't even cammed on there yet and the prices I have asked for are higher than high! Wish me luck!

Mine just started acting up too. I think other models are having the same issue. The site was having issues last week, so hopefully it's just a bug and everything will go back to normal soon. *fingers crossed*

Yeah, my encoder cpu usage has been running off the charts, and I even tried going down to 350 bps, LOL. It was like 1998 all up in my chat room, but no difference. So I'm also working toward a new computer. :/

Blovely
04-29-2013, 02:54 PM
Thanks ladies it was manycam. My cpu usage is now at 60-70%. No more lagging, freezing or fading sound. My cam quality is like 10x clearer too.

ladies, you don't need to get an i7 for SM. Second generation i5 with 4gb of memory is more than enough, if you can find a good deal. I am sure latest gen i3 would work too with similar amount of memory. I say this because after using the heck out of my 4.5 year old dual core laptop, I broke down and got a cheapo i5 with 4gb memory. I could hug that baby all night long I am so in love with it. Runs SM flawlessly when the encoder/site connection doesnt act up.

In other news, tonight I logged in to find they approved me for gold shows. I didnt ask for them. I reached 100 hearts and a handful of stars. Doubt I will be trying GS until I get better placement and more regulars. Its still crickets in my room sometimes, with lots of popins and outs.

Finally, FINALLY (after almost 2 months of being lazy) I have submitted all requirements to SM and am waiting on approval. I had a dream that I banked on there, like seriously, and I have never dreamt about camming before lol. Also I just got my car fixed and it cost me $1350 which I had to borrow from my brother. Hope it doesn't take too long cause I don't want to be relying on just MFC.

I too have an i5 and I never have issues with the encoder (knocks on wood). I'm kicking myself for not staying on longer last night, my vanilla contract job bottomed out. Fuck me, $330+ out the door. Gonna try and make up for it tonight. Gonna pull an all nighter.

Question about the 30 second peepers in private, can they only do it once per private session or can they come in and out for 30 seconds as many times as they like?

miamia4me
04-30-2013, 09:35 AM
Ariella, I am pretty sure the 30 second cheap ass dicks can pop in more than once because as soon as I started a show last night with someone, this other annoying guy that was in my freechat kept popping in and out and by the third time I knew what he was doing the fucker so I waited I knew he would be back, quick click and ban! After the second, third time you know what they are doing so get ready to ban or they will just keep doing it. His SN was royalflush or something like that.

Ariella
04-30-2013, 09:49 AM
Ugghhh what! I was under the impression they could only do it once, now that sucks if they can do it over. Even more annoying if you'd have to take focus off your private show to get rid of them. Thanks for that!

With all these issues with the Encoder... this gives me an excuse to get the iMac i7 although I just purchase the Mac Pro i5 not too long ago. Damn, it will cost almost $2000. I can do so much shopping with that money!

I only have the encoder, google chrome (tried using I.E.), and manycam running. My cpu usage is at 100%. I closed manycam and it made no difference. I have 7.74gb left but its not an i computer its only a amd dual core 2.30ghz. I do want to upgrade my internet but I doubt that's going to make a difference. I even lowered my bit and frame rate. I dunna what happened, my computer was able to handle the encoder like a week ago now its like bitch no don't even try it lol.

i had to uninstall google crome bcuz it opens like 20 different processes, and jacks my usage up =/ i use firefox now. :^D

Ya I wasn't sure about the 30 second thing but the guy in free chat just kept annoying me, I should have followed my gut and just blocked him before the private. Talking all stupid and shit like most freeloaders do. When you see them pop in and out at least 2-3 times, just get ready for the next time they pop in and click their name real fast to block them. At least you know now, and honestly it only took my focus away for about 45 seconds, I told the other guy I was about to block that freeloader so I could get back to business LOL.

Ariella, I am pretty sure the 30 second cheap ass dicks can pop in more than once because as soon as I started a show last night with someone, this other annoying guy that was in my freechat kept popping in and out and by the third time I knew what he was doing the fucker so I waited I knew he would be back, quick click and ban! After the second, third time you know what they are doing so get ready to ban or they will just keep doing it.

That would piss me off. It's exactly why I like to do exclusives only.

Quick question ladies. I'm about to do a 6 hour Voyeur "show" which will include a shower (teasing, not showing my nude self) cleaning my house, cooking, and maybe some teasing masturbation under the blanket while watching porn before bed. Should I do a goldshow (my first) or should I leave it in free chat and just let them tip and take me exclusive/private? I've never did the goldshow and don't really know much about the countdown so if it were up to me I'd leave it open without an actual "show" show.

if you do GOLD show make sure you have a stable connection so that all buy ins are counted. If the gold show freezes you have lost all money.

i don't do voyeur so I cant advise anything as far as what to do, just make sure you are stable enough not to drop

If it was me I'd run it as a gold show. There are so many tip dodgers online tonight, having said that trying to get them to pledge for shows is as tricky too lol Oh dear, I'm really not helping am I :-[

On the 30 sec room hoppers. I had previously managed to get a note on a guys profile so I knew he was a hopper and to ban him as soon as he came in, so the stupid twat hops into a Gold Show! only stayed for 30 secs but of course he gets charged for it! Next time I see him in free he's banned. Just incase you don't know, do not ban a guy from a Gold Show! I only ever made the mistake once, you don't get the gold from the guy u banned :-\.

Thank you for that tip!

Just wanted to check back in to say it did pick up for me, but it was doing that weird thing where the alert didn't go off when someone went private, and I could still hear alerts in guest chat.

It's like an inbetween stage I'm thinking of as 'fraid chat—hoping I'm in paid but afraid I'm giving a free show instead. o_0

I would not do more than 30 min at a time. You can still work 6 hrs, but just do 30 min each show. The longer the show, the more likely you are to disconnect and not get paid.

Did anyone else today get the winner who had the username "Thefirst30secondsarefreebitch" today?
Damn fucker hopped in and out of a private 2x... I took a screenshot of it bc it was so pathetic but closed it out by accident
The first time he was like "oh do you like showing yourself for free you dirty little slut?"
2nd time he saw I was getting ready to ban his ass so he hopped out too fast and never cam back.
