Has anyone noticed their CPU is suddenly getting a battering this past couple of days? Nothing has changed on my computer and all of a sudden since the site went down yesterday, it's just seeming to run so slowly. As soon as I close SM, it goes back to normal.

Jeez HOW do people sell videos on this site? This video manager works like shit. I can't even upload videos on there. It doesn't work, plain and simple.
Is it still allowed to send out a download link?
I uploaded videos weeks ago and they're still sitting in pending purgatory.

I have this lol. Oh, and blocked tags are visible(in the 'blocked' tab). I just noticed it.
I still can see them (allowed tags) on my page if I look at it fro the 'outside'. I have no idea if I received new tags or not.
Wow, I ve read an article, and it said paypal could be used for porn hub. Paypal! for Pornhub!
I've always thought paypal was prude AF.
I figured out how to see the tags. Click "ALL" , but it will include your blocked tags as well. I remember the number of tags subtract/add to that.

I wouldn't mind a few "Too expensive" tags.

You know some will push it or mention it number times throughout the show. It's very anxiety inducing if we don't know what we supposed to say or do so our accounts don't get closed.
I will message Liz to clarify!

wait is cocoloco on here? damn i just found a treasure chest of fucking ass holes on a porn site recording c2c specifically from SM and posting it on //// site.
dozens of them, i didnt have time to look ( i hunt my vids weekly)
cocoloco if you are here PM me and ill send you the link. we can also find the "client" who is recording it as well and uploading.
i wish there was somewhere i could post it without EVERYONE who shouldnt be reading it , reading it .
i dont recognize every model and its hard to know who is on here.
maybe some people dont care if c2c is recorded and uploaded but i sure do.
why do you ladies think?

I think it is deliberately complicated to report members. They don't have the support facilities to deal with normal levels of communication so if we could easily report members I think they might explode. I do wonder what the fuck they spend the 65 / 70% on that they take from us.
i think out of the 60% 70%, ----30% is paid to affiliates comissions just off the bat, so that leaves maybe 30% left... i am sure the rest of the funds are heavily taxed by the usa government federal tax, state taxes as well, plus servers are expensive to upkeep and store all that data, offices, staff, programmers, webdesigners, advertising pay per click, pay per impression ect ect payroll as well, plus all the compliances that are required and book keeping.
just to name off the top of my head..
i mean dont get me wrong i am sure they make a killing , but there are a lot of deductions from that %.

This stuff is really anxiety producing- I slept like shit last night due to wondering if I addressed the rules properly.
Yesterday I had a regular come into my room wanting to do popper's - I told him that we couldn't do that because of the rules.
What creates anxiety for me is that I have no control over what they do, so I need to know what we are supposed to do when x,y,z happens.

I had this today too, after having submitted 5 times and been rejected. You have to do the process again, I got a strange new option first to take a pic of ID next to face that wasn't there before. After that you do the same as before. In desperation I emailed Liz straight after, but five minutes later I logged out and in again and I was able to stream, as if they automatically approved it, after a ton of rejections. So when you do it keep checking after to see, and email Liz of course!
I hope you can sort it. I have zero idea why I kept getting rejected when I'm sure what I did today was the same as before. I was going to post here but I didn't need to.

Nooo we know how to check tags! They are not showing up - the tags that are not blocked. Shows zero tags. But 'blocked tags' tab and 'all tags' tab were visible, fortunately. And now this is the only way to check out new tags - in 'all tags' tab. Complicated like Chinese ceremonies ;D

After they made it so strict, and announced it, I literally message them with every damn situation I can't explain, if it is allowed or not. Because if I start to guess, it may end up badly for me, and fuck it. Wiki or at least certain yes/no article would be wonderful. How come such big site just started to develop this only now lol Don't get me wrong,I love Streamate. It appealed for me from the start. But all these changes...it seems like something is really rushing them with it now taking these measures, and like before it was so carefree...maybe it was, who knows? I 've seen a model once, shitting in free chat. It was looong ago, but it 's just unforgettable.
Did you ever hear from them about what we can say etc? maybe we can make some kind of wiki ourselves here - like what do you say to certain things/requests while still effectively selling others in the room lol

so i usually dont care about tags anymore lol i havent checked it in looong time lol but i was curious if its fucked on my profile - so i can see them all - i see shown blocked an dall - but cannot change if its shown or blocked - it wont update. also shown plus blocked do not equal all :DDDDDDD

But, did they say it it was used for advertising? or was it just ripped shows?
exactly!!! pretty please with cccherry on top LOL they didnt say shiiiiiiit!!!! just very short email saying your account has been closed. lol so i just cancelled branditscan :D from what i seen it all looked like ripped shows/goldshows - i dont remember really seeing any affiiate name on it BUT tbh i was not going thru it very precisely and sent mass dmca so im sure it was my fault and i accidentally reported some affiliate ish, whats hilarious is that in my dmca notice i literally have original footage belong to/can be found at streamate.com/cam/cocoloca

Has anyone noticed their CPU is suddenly getting a battering this past couple of days? Nothing has changed on my computer and all of a sudden since the site went down yesterday, it's just seeming to run so slowly. As soon as I close SM, it goes back to normal.
honestly i have noticed this exactly since they deleted my account and right when they reinstated it - first week in july - right before that BIG BONUS contest. I logged back on for first time and had no traffic for a while, my placement was outta whack (i know you cant really see whats up as its dif for every client and it changes even for them depends on what they click on etc; ) and it was so bad i was trying to troubleshoot everything. i got brio (have been streaming w c920 or 922 till july this year no issues no drop in $) bc i heard from someone that streaming in 4k will boost ur placement and i was willing to try anything LOL
so my CPU went cray cray - like to 70 % (all processes - but biggest one of course sm chrome) but somehow it didnt effect shows etc so i kept on streaming but noticed sloooooowly overtime it was getting reaaal high... i just assumed it was bc i was streamin in 4k and i do have lenovo desktop from 2013 lol (i7 , 12 g ram) but biz as usual. however at the beginning of september it started being really weird - so i just tried streaming with brio in 1080 and NO CHANGE whatsoever! (well now i realize i should prob try it w c920 just to test it LOL ) and now i can see when i start streaming all processes are at 20% and longer i stream the higher it grows, esp if i move around a lot and/or have back to back privates then it goes higher faster (i still have to try that advice about changing camera source for a sec) if i stop the show CPU remains high (sm chrome alone well over 85%) but if i close smconnect - it goes down to 15% immediately. I do have 8 yrs old graphics card and i am waiting for new pc so im super curious how thats gonna change situation LOL and will post update when i know ;)
cpu rant over lol

Did you ever hear from them about what we can say etc? maybe we can make some kind of wiki ourselves here - like what do you say to certain things/requests while still effectively selling others in the room lol
I asked them particularly about intoxication/hypnosis roleplay, blackmail roleplay. Also seen a girl online once, she looked so posh, having a nice glass of martini, and I asked them if I could do it (not drinking like a pig, I mean, but more like elegant) Funny, that we aren't allowed to drink, but allowed to smoke on cam (cigarettes) - as far as I know.
They said strict 'no' to any of it. Absolutely. I have another questions related to restrictions, but I feel like I message them too much ;D
However, I'll post it here if I ask them and get their responses.
Have you read posts here about filming guys (by their request)? Ladies here mentioned it was forbidden, too.
Regarding meetups -I just say plain 'no', I know it can be roleplayed (like imaginary meet), but I am worried it can be interpreted wrong. So it's better to find proper wording, so everybody can see you won't really meet and you don't plan to do it. (I'll message support about it, too lolol)
Funnily, I just read an article about Hayes Code (in Hollywood of 30s) and how the cinema industry moguls were angry about these rules that got more and more strict. Then one of directors said that the Code was good thing, because it made screenwriters and directors think in unusual ways how to play scenes so they are not prohibited, and they did better movies because they had to keep all these restrictions in mind.
I don't mean we need to bend forbidden fetishes/requests in a certain way to avoid the rules, I mean it really challenges the mind and also cuts some creepy dudes off. I do think what to answer.

What Liz said about guys wanting to meet up. I'm gonna save her email!
More to add, I would report usernames AND ID because users can have the same usernames. Would hate to see good regulars being banned just because they have the same usernames as guys asking to meet up in free chat. There so many mikes, johns, seans, daddys, etc.

I'll have to create a quick preset about not meeting up. There's no doubt it's gonna be put to good use. Can't type all that everytime they ask.
Imagine doing an hour long show using quick preset explaining why we can't meet up.
There are guys that would actually stay that long thinking we're playing hard to get and it's their mission to change our minds.
Usually I would milk that shit but now I wouldn't risk it.

They did not ask me to resize. I just saw a post here where someone said their pics were cropped, so I messaged the support asking them about the best picture sizes for Activity Feed, in advance. They gave me that example. Where can I watch them? I don't know how to check out the pics I uploaded. Mine were just approved yesterday and purchased. It showed like the video purchased though, not activity feed.
you mean like check stats? when you go to dashboard>activity feed, your posts are displayed in an unclickable list format. unfortunately there are no detailed stats, like it doesn't show which posts have sold. only indicators are any reactions but not everyone reacts. and you are right, all we see is 'video purchase' in our earnings report
edit: i think i know what you mean by cropped now, yes the thumbnails are cropped a bit oddly. however when you right click on the photo you can see the full view and its original dimensions, so i am assuming the customers get to see everything just fine :)

hahahaha yes exactly its like a reflex :D
how i have always handled meet ups - if i get asked in free chat to meet, i say no but i try to avoid saying NO so i say - well i am personally not an escort however we can do something even better RIGHT NOW - you can meet ME right away in exclusive chat and its gonna be just me and you, there will be no witnesses, no DNA exchange, no evidence - its soooo much more fun. you are man you have advantage - you are very visual you dont really need that touch like women do. wording depends on what i am portraying: bitchy sensual or whatever but u know what i mean lol; i have sold guys asking to meet up like that. not sure about % of sales it yields lol but with how you say it you can sell others in the room

Id check on that.
One of these gifts usually means one of the main prizes and the bonus for working hours is seperate ..
all performers can do bonus hours but not all can rank in the top of the contest so if they don't rank they at least get the bonus to be all inclusive
