Streamate was maddening for me today. I couldn't last, I kept getting kicked out of Exclusives which sucked because I was actually GETTING THEM>:(
s...t! Damn! Me too! It was horrendous! Got kicked out of streamate and wasnt able to log in for a while. In the meantime I had someone emailing me wanting to go into a private. What a headache!

Okay, I was finally able to stream and get some shows tonight- I'm using the new settings (degrade quality, etc). I tried both actually, and both had lag but the drop frames setting was a longer lag. Also, I can't really view my cam when I'm streaming- my internet sucks and my stream is super laggy if I check it with the connection I'm streaming from- kwim? Ahh England- why does your internet/upload speeds suck?? Also I uninstalled flash 3.2 and reinstalled 3.1 because that is what SM reccommends for PC's (on the homepage under the dropdown "HD")
Anyways,
Thank you for the help guys, and Goodluck:)
Oh the joys of camming from the UK!
There may be hope on the horizon though with 4G coming out. Fast DL and UL, but your data will be gone in no time.
I am splitcamming with one free chat and one non free chat and both servers keep getting disconnected. Well three or four times. Probably lack of upload or bandwith

I'm in the UK too, but being in a rural area means 4G won't reach me for another 4/5 years after the rest of the UK :(
I haven't been on cam today but will be in appx 30 mins and I cam on two sites via two computers etc, I found splitting wouldn't work for me, but if the weathers is shit it really affects my connection and I find I get disconnected lots! This week is forcast to have gusty winds and lots of rain/thunder storms, so I expect power cuts and internet outage! Yeah the joys of the UK bb :(

Anybody in here only offers toy-free masturbation in private chat (meaning; fingering, rubbing, etc.)? In MFC group shows I didn't even mention it beforehand and never really had a problem. But am I going to get privates on SM this way? I'm planning on doing it because vaginal penetration ALWAYS hurts me in the first few minutes even if I'm using a lot of lube (I can do with fingers in private, though), so I decided it's something I'm going to save for exclusive only. How common is that?

I only use toys if asked and I do fine like that. Not many guys seem to actually ask me either... which is nice because it helps you not get sore as quickly. But that is just my experience. I usually mention that I prefer my fingers, I tell them it "feels better" or something. I don't think you'll have an issue.

I use toys in exclusive only on Streamate (and in true private only on MyFreeCams).

Is anyone else having trouble connect to the encoder? I tried setting it up tonight but I could not for the life of me get it to connect. The encoder would freeze and have an error. Is this a problem with the software or with Streamate? I was hoping to get on the HD bandwagon since a lot of the cam girls use the HD encoder. I emailed Vanessa for help, but I wanted to know if anyone else had this problem. I would like to go back to camming with Streamate so it bums me out that this isn't working. I wish the HD option on SM was the same as the MFC one.

Dumb question but who should I message to raise my rates? I sent an email about a week ago to SM and I didn't get a reply, wondering if I emailed the correct address? Could I email Vanessa about that or do I have to message SM directly? I really want to raise my rates! I'm sitting at 4.19 premium and 4.99 exclusive. I gradually have bumped my prices up and I want to be at 4.99 premium and 5.99 exclusive

So does it mean that $4.99/min for private is exaggerated then? :beady:

[email protected] This is the email I always use for anything I need which is almost nothing now finally lol. And 4.99 is perfect for pvt or even higher if you like. Im at 4.99 for pvt myself and happy with that.

I think she means that she didn't wanna use a toy for a low "premier chat" price, so she only used them in her slightly-higher exclusive.
So is sm pay by check on a 3 week delay or 5 week? We haven't gotten our first check from the beginning of April.....
Cam_Model_Jess
05-14-2013, 09:03 AM
Three week. You should've been paid for March 31-April 6 on April 24, then April 7-13 on May 1, and April 14-20 on May 8. So... you should've already gotten 3 checks, unless you didn't make payout. Check your payment info.
Thanks. We did make payout and the check said they were issued. What do we do now? I don't want to have to pay them for checks to be reissued. I wasn't expecting a problem with this.
Cam_Model_Jess
05-14-2013, 09:14 AM
You can have a check reissued for free after 4 weeks, so you should be able to do the 1st one in 10 days. But you need to check your payment info (address). If it's correct, you need to contact support. It's not right that you're missing that many checks. I've been on there a long time & never had a single missing check.

They will always ask, it is up to the individual. Some ppl do stepmom/ mom in law etc. Sometimes the client is not clear with wording and we have to put words in their mouth.

So, if I have no "moral" problem with doing incest roleplays, all I need is to clarify one time that it's a stepfamily and that everyone involved is over 18, or how does that go?

If someone wants a pee show, can I say something like "pee shows are not allowed on this site, let's say I'll squirt" or something that doesn't directly imply that I will pee but suggests to the client I will do it. I ask that because I get this question two to three times per day and have no problem with doing this, but I know it's not allowed...

Squirting is real. It doesnt mean ALL girls are just peeing themselves, but hey Im sure some are...
For example, I cannot make myself squirt, but I have once with a guy, but the amount like sum vids Ive seen of girls shooting out water hoses seems fake to me, but who knows maybe thats just their squirt lol. Mine was a LOT smaller, but its real.
I want to learn to make myself squirt though $$$$$ !!!

This is just my advice, take it with a grain of salt: But if you give a guy a euphemistic hint that youll do something youre not allowed to do and they are too simple to get it, just withdraw the offer. Basically if someone doesnt get your hints (even if theyre very obvious), they arent discreet enough to bother risking your account or rep to. Guys who are serious about actually spending know they may elicit a negative reaction so they tend to be more discreet.
Guys who are like 'pee for me, can i be your baby boy mama?, u have period bluud for me, how i pay u offline - wut u mean google u?' etc etc are too simple to bother engaging. If you have to be discreet but they arent even attempting to be discreet, it may be more trouble than the amount youd make for going that route.
Kind of like in this thread. Models wont spell out how to do a taboo request publicly for a similar discretion reason. So I doubt youll get a direct guide on how to do it bc it... isnt allowed. But taht doesnt mean it doesnt happen. it is kind of like, people who use idk hashish are using a product that usually isnt very legal and cant be found in any store - but they still get it, so they figure out the off-the-grid route to get what they want without calling attention to themselves. That is a clumsy ass comparison so hope it doesnt derail the thread bc I didnt intelligently think it through... but cant think of an edit to replace it.
Hope that makes sense.

Is anyone else having issues starting starting a gold show tonight? Every time I press the start show button, it says something similar to this - "The information you entered isn't valid. Please try again"
Sunnylexie
05-15-2013, 01:42 AM
I did have issues with gold shows, it didn't give out any messages though. It was just showing a blank window with the Flash loading wheel in it.
I also had issues with pvts. Guys complained it wouldn't let them in, and all I got when they tried to start it was the sound of them leaving the pvt and the message saying "%username% has logged off". It didn't even show them enter or give the sound alert.
TheBrownFox
05-15-2013, 05:18 AM
To play it safe, I think models refusing certain shows should just say to the guy "No, I don't do that" instead of saying "No, I don't do incest." It may sound silly and paranoid, but it wouldn't be the first time a model has gotten in trouble for speaking about what she doesn't do. Don't risk getting your SM (or ImLive) account suspended just because some fool on the support team jumped the gun and suspended you without investigating the matter first.
So are you ladies still having problems getting kicked out of Gold Shows/private and exclusive shows?
Nina_Den

I just want to say that the majority of guys are stupid. Two guys wanted to buy panties. I told them I am not allowed to say what site I sell them on. And that I'm sorry, but if they were resourceful, I can't stop them from finding out. They complained and said I didn't want to sell to them. Um... Ever heard of 'GOOGLE'? -_-

Yeah, those guys are obviously too stupid and/or too lazy to do a Google search. And they probably couldn't care less if you got suspended from SM (if you had told them the other site name).
45 min on this morning. tried to run 2 gold shows. No takers. Had a guy try to take us pvt and said he couldn't. I was reading previous posts and I believe him. So wonderful. Is the moon and stars aligned wrong right now? Things are turning to shit pretty fast.

If I have an upload speed of between 7-10 mbps (using Hotspot Shield) but an i3 processor, am I going to have to say goodbye to the Streamate fantasy? :(
(EDIT: also noticed now that Hotspot Shield doesn't let me view other girls' rooms on SM. Could They ban free/guest users who are using VPN? I hope I'd be able to stream using Hotspot, though, because otherwise my upload speed is maximum 1.60 mbps...)
