Can anyone translate this? I just see something about Cam4.
Modfather (invisible)Fui el mejor moderador en otra página de Cam4. Enseño burlas al estilo americano, las burlas atraen mucha atención, conseguir oro te hace sentir muy seguro y sexy sin tener que mostrar tus partes íntimas
This is what Google Translate said
I was the best moderator on another Cam4 page. I teach teasing in the American style, teasing attracts a lot of attention, getting gold makes you feel very safe and sexy without having to show your private parts

Upload the driving licence, if you don't have, apply for a provisional driving licence to appear as UK.
Mmm I didn't think of this! I have a Spanish drivers license (EU) but I could apply to change it to an UK one, I have a friend who's done this to get his car insurance for cheaper. Thanks for the tip! x

Modfather (invisible):I was the best moderator in another site in Cam4. I teach american-style jokes (or like, making fun of people?), these attract a lot of attention, getting gold makes you feel very confident and sexy without having to show your intimate parts.
Lol he's just a know it all timewaster but in Spanish
He literally wants to teach you american jokes? honestly this guy uses google translate cause the word "burlas" means to make fun of somebody so he does't really speak spanish lmao

Maybe he means comebacks? or he wants to teach her to do humiliation in Spanish? But maybe just jokes lol. It's ridiculous anyway.

Oh WONDER-FUCKING-FUL! Another contest FFS.... I REALLY wish they would only run these for a few days - SM becomes pretty much uncammable for me during contests and I lose a LOT of money when it is a full week.....

I was literally going to post yesterday saying I hope SM doesn't have the balls to do another contest amidst all the bs going on but why am I not surprised? Just another way to kick us while we are down, woo-hoo. As if getting online every day for peanuts isn't bad enough.
Ugh I'm just ranting, im so frustrated with SM lately.

Yay got my acct approved.
Took just ID photos (passport) and the selfie. There still was no selfie+ID step so held the passport while taking the final selfie.
Submitted from the computer using OBS virtual camera; the HQ ID photos were premade with a phone, uploaded to the computer and used as a source for the virtual cam, and the selfie was taken live. 1080p output seems to be ok as far as the initial picture is good.

Well, I had emailed support last week and they finally replied to me today to tell me that my verification was rejected. So I've just done it again. Still no option to do selfie while holding ID, just ID, ID (which with a passport are the same) then a selfie. I look nothing like my passport, it expires next year.
If your passport is a booklet like mine, try folding it backwards. Taking a picture of a complete open passport or of just one page of it laying open (with a bit of the opposite page showing) will cause the program to crop the image to just an incomplete page with the photo and distort it. The stupid software has to be absolutely sure there's nothing left out of the frame, so the only way to take a decent photo of your passport is to make it fit in the frame completely by folding it backwards. I submitted the photo page and the page with the issue info.
Also, the Russian support recommended that the the camera/phone is held a bit further from the ID than the box thing prompts and the picture is taken manually by pressing the camera button. This way, no accidental cropping happens (you still have to fold the passport backwards though). Seems to have worked for me.

Liz got back to me about my verification. She said 'looks good!' so I'm assuming that meant I was accepted?! I never had to do the selfie with ID and managed to do it on my phone. I took it in the window with natural light to prevent any light bouncing off the passport pic. I hope that means it's all ok.

I got the exact same message from Liz when I checked mine with her over a week ago, banner still up though and no word from Support...

I’m sure she had a million other emails to reply to on top of everything else she must have to do, hence the super quick reply. She hasn’t asked us to resubmit though so I guess we’re all good! X

So excited for the full week 'Worst Face Forward' contest. Only your three worst streaming days count towards your final ranking.
I'm gonna aim high for 25 hours, hustle my ass off for at least $250 for that $25 bonus. After 30% put away towards taxes, gross take home is $17.50. Gonna plan hard on what I'm gonna spend it on!

I've wondered this. I had a regular's angry wife in my chat room a couple of months back and blocked and reported as hacked but forgot to block messages. A few weeks later, I got some more angry messages from her. So I'm guessing nothing was done with the report or the account.

I got an email saying again my pictures weren’t accepted. What do you want from me SM? I resubmitted for the third time, so hopefully it’ll be accepted!
I emailed support to ask for verification. I don’t want to cam again until I know everything is good. I don’t need my account getting closed again out of the blue. I hope they figure out what’s going on. I don’t think the problem is my end. My guess is the software they got is cheap and finicky.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I thought the same thing. This was brought up among other veteran models. Instead of constantly rewarding the ultimate highest earners who OBVIOUSLY have a solid customer base or high spenders. Let other models win too. Models that make $30,000+/month don't need the contest prize money.

Oh yes they need the money, everybody needs money no matter how much they make/ have, why do u think they work soo long hrs during contests? Everybody wants the 5k prize!

This has always been on the back of my mind, it's really just a way for streamate to try and make more for themselves while instilling false hope in the majority of models. it's kind of insulting, $25 bonus is a joke and most people don't even get that while eearning less than they normally would during a non contest week. Scraps. It's an obvious moneygrab for streamate, it gives false hope that lesser known models Might actually win a solid bonus if they just stay on and keep pushing, but in reality it just makes the rich richer and the rest of us suffer. It's unfortunate because a lot of the lesser known models who don't have a massive following are just as good at camming and are hard working, likeable, and beautiful. contests are a joke.
Edit: I should add, It's admirable how many hours of hard work is put in by many, but its not lucrative for the majority of us despite hard work and dedication. Contests that award everyone equally depending on how much you work are so much better

Marina Starr

Contests are also run when Streamate is fixing the site, adding/testing new features, sorting out glitches etc. Sometimes glitches are worst before and after the contest than during. Contests to me are like hurricanes, you deal with strong wind, lots of rain during and storm surges after. Bumpy but interesting!
Bonus gifts are given for our time, pain and emotional distress.

That newsletter is just them doubling-down on never implementing live model support. Thanks SM
All it sounds like to me is *wah wah we are overwhelmed we work so hard boo hoo stop bothering us* instead of being grateful they have so many engaging models who actually use the platform and let them know right away when something seems off and asking to receive some decent help that isn't copy-pasted automation. They would rather punish us for giving heads up. Or just flat out shut us up.
Now saying 'hi you remember this issue that has been a problem for months - still isn't fixed' is grounds for suspension. No they don't want to hear it. I can't imagine threatening my team with suspension over bug reporting. Now we will never get any issues fixed because nobody will want to put their account in jeopardy
Marina Starr

No Abusing the Reporting Process:
"Do not report the same model(s) frequently. Trying to convince support to discipline a specific model is model harassment, even if your reports are factual. Don't spend time monitoring a model just to catch them breaking rules."
"Do not spend excessive time reporting. If you see a violation, send a short report that includes key details. Don't get distracted looking for violations or writing up long descriptions. Spend most of your attention on your own account and audience."
Streamate is trying to keep it professional but what it really meant is: step your pussy up and mind your business or we're coming for all you meddling hoes!

LOL I thought this too! Seems like they're trying to 'subtly' get people to stop complaining about models breaking the rules, because those rule breakers still make them cash. Like oh yeah you can complain...but if it annoys us that's ALSO against the rules!
Guess I'll just stay in my lane and never complain then

Yup, this has been happening to me all week! For the past 5 or so c2c shows I've had the guys have frozen, been laggy as hell, and had no audio half the time? They'd have to stop and start the cam again to get the audio to work. I assumed it was just them having bad internet, but 5 in a row I guess it's the site?

What's shocking is I'm not surprised but that goes for every job. It isn't right but that will never change.
There are also histrionically messy hoes that thrive on false reports and fabrications out of spite, jealousy or the attitude 'if x,y,z models are on then I can't money'.
They need to be reprimanded as well!

Like HMRC sending letters to arrive Friday or Saturday, SM send communication Friday night.
HMRC is the UK government tax department.
