Another full week contest. I don't mind that much but what I hate is the 25 hours requirement. I usually do about 15 weekly.
Was hoping there wouldn't be anymore contests 'til the last week of November for the annual 5, 6, 8th course meals contest.

Just noting it's not a contest. It's purely a bonus week, no ranks or competition. I wish all of them were like this even though I also hate the minimum hours.
Edit: I just wish the earnings threshold between the 20 and 25% bonus wasn't so high. I can do $1000+ in a week/~25 hrs but $2500 is a stretch.

Thanks, girl! All I saw was 25 hours and automatically assumed it's another contest because we've had so many, lol.
$1000 of 20% is only $200. $2500 of 25% is $625. That is MUCH more enticing than that small $200. I believe removing the demand for hitting $2500 actually increases the likelihood of you surpassing it.

Last year december was nice. Streamate had a contest that you would get a 30% bonus from the whole week, and they might repeat it this year. The days around xmas were fun

I've never had guy spend money who came into freechat presumptuously calling me "mummy" already. Genuine spenders would just go exclusive or ask in freechat if I'm ok with that.

what do you ladies think? does anyone on here actually work those days and have decent earnings?
do they troll you with " oh why arent you with family or friends or something.? ect ect.
Okay so, last year we were in lockdown over xmas/new years and travelling around the country was banned, so I don't think it would've been seen as 'sad' as usual? - but also I don't really care what these guys think lol, I find camming fun so sure I'll do it on holidays if I'll make money!
When I cammed xmas last year it was so dead that there was no one to be making snarky comments lol, I did like 2 hours then logged off for a day or two. However, new years was extremely busy for me and I made a fuck ton- I didn't have anyone making comments about it being sad at all!
Tbh I think any dude who is gunna troll about me camming on holidays is absolutely not a dude who is a) going to pay for my pussy and b) going to avoid being banned from my room. SO no real loss imo!

What does everyone do if you get guys coming in talking about illegal drugs in your chat room? I always ask them to stop but should we be reporting these guys aswell?
Part of me feels like I’m being an annoyance reporting so much shit, but on the other hand I like my back to be covered.
Tbh if these guys didn’t insist on breaking the rules I’d have nothing to report though, so there’s that.
They really should be warned of the rules when they log on. I know most won’t listen but it might deter at least some of them. Some is better than none.

They really need to block obvious drug related words as well as other ones they dont want these "customers" talking about. Why does so much of the liability go on us to police our room when they could simply block stuff. Just a thought...

They should totally ban the drug names/terms, but then there is the word “high” it can’t really be banned from chat. Also weed is a legal “high” in quite a few US states.
It is a mess because it assumes that we know these guys are being truthful and also attempting to get us to engage in a discussion about illegal drugs. How do we know the legality in their region? that it isn’t another model trying to swat another.? And also assumes these guys don’t think it’s cool to say they are drunk only two white claws deep.

Does the break button contribute towards our time online etc? Or is it essentially the same as logging off, except without actually logging off?
Marina Starr
11-11-2021, 04:12 PM
Yes, it does that why your percentage for paid time will drop if keep restarting the break button for longer break. Not the same as logging off.

It's showing guest user alerts, even though it's turned off. I have never had it on. I prefer not to see a list of everyone popping in and out.
I also noticed that I never saw some of these guys in my room, yet they showed as logging in and out. Oh well, just gotta roll with it :)

There are regulars that used to spend regularly. Now they just popped in without tipping after months of not spending so I always having to blocking them.
It's too bad, it's just too sad because it didn't have to be this way.

#3 The more I block, the more I make. That's the UNDISPUTED fact that's not up for debate.
I'm just here to chip in my 2 cents nobody asked for.
100% what Marina said is my experience. The more users I block the more I seem to make. BUT WHY? This is my theory:
Other users see you don't fuck around with trolls and gain respect for you. "Wow she respects herself" they think and your chatroom doesn't look like a free-for-all where anything goes and anyone can say anything. If they see other users threatening your life or whatever the trolls may say: they think you maybe can't speak the language and leave or that your room is full of trash users that they dont want to interact with. You dont want to teach users if they just chip in $1 or 1 token that they can speak however they want to you and you are a doormat.
But what if you are on SM classic chat and nobody can see it?
If you show your face or speak aloud the users can see/hear it. You will be reacting in some way and it comes across bad to other users. Even if your clapbacks are good. You are teaching them "insults get attention" so the rest either join in for the free attention or leave cuz they arent intro getting roasted. Now it's made this shady environment where users are just mean cuz that is what you respond to.
If you have those dumbfucks banned then your attention can go to spenders, the chat topic stays on sex and it's easier to hustle cuz your peace (aka selfcare from Marina's original post) isnt being disturbed
I'm not here to lay around and HOPE that a couple hundred users SOMEDAY tip $1 each. I'm here to make real money. The annoyance isnt worth the $1. They are costing us money to stay there IF they chat cuz that is time that I could be spending with users who want to pay more
Why do we need to ban so many? I think it's cuz they make new accounts, over and over LOL
Today I'm getting a glitch where the user popup wont disappear and some of them are overlapping on each other wtf
and did they remove song request from the menu ?

Blocking useless users (hahaha) is like to sift through. Only hanging out with the best;)
I rarely block people right away. I give them several chances, because I understand people might need time.
I do kick them out of my chat if they park there and lurk though. I don't need to be watched silently, it's not flattering to me unless they tip while doing it.

anyone else got a bad feeling about the future of streaming with music playing in the background? twitch streamers and youtubers get dmca strikes for like 5 seconds of a song and we are all just out here stripping live to bangers lmao.
We even have song request on the gold menu sheeeeesh. I have not got one hint of a clue how it flies that we have to use royalty free nintendo ass sounding songs in videos but can collect the $$ for broadcasting Beyonces latest drop if it is live?!
Yep song request is now off the gold menu

I just refreshed and restarted stream after adjusting classic chat several times before just giving up. Looks like the wheel is broken too. I'm not getting paid for wheel spins so I disabled it after reporting to SM help.
I was totally irritated til I saw this. SMConnect fuckin irritates me sometimes.

Oh no!! I just checked and I did get paid for the one wheel spin I had tonight. I'm sure you will get paid, hopefully quick!
On the guest alerts, at first I thought maybe I'm missing them pop in because I only see some of them logging off. I don't think so because it's happening a lot.

I have 2500.. rookie numbers I know, I used to unban them all (kicking old me) but since I've upped to averaging 10 per day my $ has gone up and I don't think it's a fluke
To add to my last post ... I also think it adds a mental pressure to the users to not camp out. They see me banning people *for no reson* and think :o I better tip her or she will ban me... or leave. Making my chat easier to manage

just started my stream and guys are telling me my audio is choppy and reverbing. I clicked on my stream to check my audio from the SM main page and cant even hear my audio at all. wtf....ugh
edit: so I have 4 diff mic settings and I always just use the default one that is attached to my webcam. I messed around and tried different mic inputs til I was told I sounded clear. never had to do that before and never had guys complain about bad audio. weird.
double edit: does anyone have a logitech BRIO webcam and have different mic options under settings? I have default-microphone, microphone, and communications all under BRIO and never knew what different ones meant. the 4th one is just Microphone (realtek)R) audio) and thats the one that wants to work today. just thought id see if anyone knows what I am talking about.

When I see a tip the amount of my wheel spin, I feel the buzz and pause before doing anything else, then the wheel choice shows up. I think they are fucking with how we “experience” the wheel spins with a connected tip toy. There just happens to be a delay. Very annoying

I hope so, it would be nice if we could encourage spins by saying they make the vibe buzz. I get annoyed with the glitches too but how are they supposed to ever change anything without affecting someone, there will always be customers and cammers using it at any given time.
