Not sure what bank you're with but Halifax are pretty chill with sw cheques- I'm not with them anymore so am chill with sharing that info lol. I used them for clipsite cheques for a while with no hassle, that was a few years back though so not sure if they've changed their tune.
I'm having the struggle of finding new banks too though, got rejected from a popular one that I wanted to use for crypto fiat- I had to explain the crpyto money would be from SW and they weren't happy with that! Banks here can be so backwards, even the newer 'online only' ones
Halifax don't accept foreign currency cheques.

The double tip problem persists. Unfortunately it has now spread to gold shows. Hit a $300 goal when only $150 was 'real'. Idk what was showing as the total on their end but on mine it hit the goal. I'm not even mad anymore just disappointed.
I run staggered goals. 100 striptease, 150 finger play, 200 toy and 300 DP.
I'm not a grass but if my consent to do certain acts on cam is reliant on the remuneration showed to me and agreed beforehand, which then transpires to not exist then wow I didnt consent to do that did I?
Mastercard would be PISSED.
this sucks. as far as i know i have not yet experienced the double tip glitch, but it also makes me wonder if i have and just didn't notice - because who the hell has the time and energy to double check all of their tips and earnings? ugh.
so was it basically showing two identical tips from each person in the chat? when the glitch happens does the double/glitch tip always show up right after the real one?
it'd be one thing if they were showing up in the chat/countdown but not adding to your goal because then it'd be more obvious it was a glitch. but the fact that it said you hit your goal when you were only halfway is unacceptable, for precisely the point you made.

Some of them were right after one another, other times some people were tipping at the same time so it was coming up a b a b alternating. I am used to the double tip problem in regular free chat so always check now and 100% of the time someone tips twice or more identical amounts, only 1 is real.
The problem with gold shows are that if it is a 3 dollar show, most of the tips will be 3 dollars. For a 5 dollar show most tips are all 5. You cannot as easily identify duplicate tips. And there is no way to check before you complete the show. It's also almost impossible to keep track with all the logged on logged off messages taking up so much of the chat. It isn't always instant either. Some are showing up quickly some come after a little while. No real pattern.
All genuine and duplicate tips contributed to the goal on my user interface.
Getting posted on twitter too so it isn't a one off. No word from HQ yet though as far as I know.

I block them immediately, screenshot and copy/paste what they said into their notes and then I report with a paste of their text during the chat. I also offer up the screenshot if they would like it. They haven't asked me for a screenshot yet but i keep them all anyway just in case.....
Yes, but if they don't with purpose/intentionally like they are ignoring rules... it is not fair to block. Just inform them so they will stop. If they keep going against rules yes !! I asked to Liz and I m waiting her answer. X

Fuck them!
I have a few questions. Was your check written as ICF Technology? I don't think Streamate even comes up when you google. If so, I don't know how they would know.
Did you mobile deposited the check?
Yes ICF was on the check.
No I went into the branch myself. Also put in a C4S check at the same time, which cleared.
Maybe it's the Holidays but I don't feel like selling pussy at all this week. Thank God I have all expenses covered that are due December 1st.
I MAY participate in the contest and doing cooking goldshows all day wearing a see through apron.
It looks like is the good week to rest for selling pussy! Deaddddddzzz it is not like the usual Monday. Struggled to hit my usual, hopefully got it but omg I felt alone :) ... taking slowly this week, resting more bc some rest can be productive!!! ( Say to myself lol I don't know what mean take off but ohhh you know when it's a must...)

Sleeping during a designated “sleep show” is allowed. However, the way you describe the show is important. Do not imply non-consent or illegal activity with words such as “drugged” or “helpless.” If your consent is in question, our support team will cut the stream or suspend your account to avoid showing illegal activity. To avoid this, use clear descriptions such as “Join me for a nap show” and ensure no actions that appear non-consensual happen during the stream.
Where do we write said description? Room Topics are still disabled. Do I temporarily edit it into my Show Description? Also, is there a limit to how long we can sleep on cam?

I'm blocking because I will be goddamned if I lose my house because of something some idiot said to me on cam. Blocking is how I choose to handle this. It is my chat room - I choose what is fair for ME :)
And from my experience when I inform them they continue anyway. Not even going to waste my time (Camming for 7 years).

I assumed it was a problem with one of the white labels. I don't remember which one but jerkmate for example often has usees come through as the site name and a bunch of numbers.
I've never had any if the user1234 people say anything since this glitch started, has anyone else?

I had a long show with a userXXXX the other day so some are real! On the down side I just had to end an exclusive for a previous customer who wanted to stroke for his stepmom. I must have done shows before but usually I would carry on and ignore the word and not say anything at all related to it, so if I had been recorded it would never be a 'stepmom' show. But now, no. I just love turning away customers that want to pay me. It's my favourite thing. BTW any 'mommy' guys have always had an immediate block.

Has anyone actually gotten a direct response saying step play is banned? Step sex isnt illegal and when I put "i like brother sister roleplay" in my description, they themselves edited it to say "I like stepbro/stepsis roleplay" and published it last week. I think half of this is over reaction. Yeah, they are cracking down on illegal stuff, but they arnt going to be removing model/members for non-illegal dumb stuff.
If they didnt WANT to look the other way, they wouldn't have stressed the "do not over report, you will be banned for over reporting, over reporting is its own offense" thing. They also still have searchable tags for banned words and "raceplay" is still one of their most clicked tags.
Im pretty sure they are just covering their own asses and havnt changed anything behind the scenes, if they suddenly took a huge turn wouldn't their site reflect it? Wouldn't they have denied my "sister/daughter" stuff in my description instead of actually changing it to "step" themselves, and removed banned words from being searchable tags?

Poor Guys lmao
What is banned is the incest under age rape play from Daddy or anybody else in the family
it’s business as usual if played properly
The terms “daddy” and “mommy” are not banned and may be used during your shows. However, the context of these terms is important. For example, “spank me daddy” is acceptable. But “show daddy your X year-old sister” is NOT acceptable. If phrases such as “daddy” or “mommy” are used to suggest incest, non-consent, or underage sexual activity, then they violate the Streamate Code of Conduct. If a member uses these terms in this way, stop the scene and then report and block them. During an investigation, this report is a positive sign that you are helping us keep this content off the site.
In the past there has been some confusion about this term, but we have corrected this issue and will follow the above policy going forward.
ETA: remove a word

Also, C2C is not working right. Anyone else having an issue with it? It's like every fucking guy wants to show me their stupid dick lately, and they leave when they can't get the stupid cam to work. Like wtf Streamate!!!??? You're fucking with my money with all these stupid fucking glitches!!!!

my traffic actually increased significantly as soon as the bonus week was over. i've had a pretty steady go since saturday.
however now that the 4 part thanksgiving contest begins later today i expect traffic to drop again and glitches to return. we'll see. i was planning on working tonight and tomorrow and taking thanksgiving and friday off.

Its important to keep in mind that a good day for some doesn't mean a good day for all. Today could be amazing for one model, and slow for another. And then the next day the model who made bank might make less than the model who didn't make much the day prior. I worked in a physical studio way back when I first started and we would discuss our earnings, naturally. it became apparent how everyone's good and bad days are not always the same and the high earning days can be drastically different depending on the model and her clients. Just my two cents.
Also comparing myself to others literally kills my self esteem. Not doing so helps me stay positive and therefore stay on cam longer which can sometimes make all the difference in what I make that day.

One of my customers just asked me, Oh no tip vibe today?
My tip vibe is always in and always on. There wasn't a single notification in the chat. I keep an eye out always in case it does disconnect for a moment. It's showing a tip in my earnings but no chat notification or vibe reaction! I hope it's only him he's happened to as I'll have been unintentionally ignoring people who have tipped!!
Anyone else having this?

So as clarified earlier in the thread, race play isn't allowed.
Does this include customers referring to our "white pussy" or anything like that though? Would this be classed as race play and should we be reporting these guys?
I always imagine race play as racially humiliating people or using derogatory/racist terms. Never thought about whether it could be classed as the above.

I always run my videos through Handbrake though because it reduces the file size with no quality loss so that I don't have to spend a lot of upload time.

Whether it's allow or not, any guy using 'mommy' should be instantly blocked! They even call girls in their 20s, 30s 'mommy'. What the actual fuck?!

The quickest way to be unhappy is comparing yourself to others. When you're not happy, you're not making money.
When you're not making money, you feel inadequate. It's a vicious cycle.
Don't compare, just step your pussy up!

I've never encountered a guy using the word mommy with any intent other than incest. It's not a common power play term in femdom, whereas daddy is incredibly common for a dominant guy. I'd say the majority of time daddy is used in a non incest context. (And I assume this is why daddy is more accepted than mommy)

Well, that's simply not true! It's not always incest they're after, sometimes they simply want underage rp and don't entirely care if you're related!
Okay, fine... most of the time they want COMBO underage incest rp. And if you get lucky, they'll throw in that poopy diaper.
Either way, 0% of the time is anyone who uses the word "mommy" not worth an immediate block. What a neato time for me to be turning 40 on SM :/ I don't even know where to start with "do you have kids?" I get annoyed enough with the term "MILF".

Milf has always been such a stupid porn term IMO. By definition an 18 year old could technically be a milf if she has kids, but no one uses it that way. I wish milf ceased to be a thing and got entirely replaced with cougar, being geared toward older attractive women and whether she has kids or not is irrelevant.
I think if you are prone to getting guys asking for mommy roleplays on SM my main advice is to lower your profile age as much as realistically possible. It's crazy how much your customer demographic can shift when you experiment with different ages on your bio. I am going on 32 but I've been mid to late 20s on my SM profile forever because it seems like past age 30 guys start pushing the mom thing way more heavily.

Back before the new regulations I used to just tell all the mommy greeters how that just wasn’t hot to me. Some would just apologize and want generic older woman/20 something roleplay. So a small subset of them believed it was actually a term we like, basically equal to daddy. Kids these days…I think I have trained all my young and dumb ones not to use it around me. Finger crossed.
Then there are the ones who call you mommy and want to be called daddy. IRL I knew an older married couple who called each other that in public. Doesn’t matter at this point, I’m blocking them all because idgaf what their intentions are anymore, I’m not getting screwed over because they are awkward talking to women.

Loooong time ago I read a book about a married couple, and they called each other 'mummy' and 'daddy'. I was so shocked lol, couldn't comprehend why they do it, really. I still don't get it, but that first time, I remember I even had to re-read the part, because I thought it was mistake hahaha
I get it when girls call men 'daddy' (in sexual manner), but I 'd cringe af if someone called me 'mummy'. On other hand, some guys can say 'hey sexy mama' (not in chat, in general), and for some reason it doesn't sound creepy to me and doesn't bring these incest vibes.

With the new tiktok "mommy?" Trend though....I can assure you that even listing as 18 seems to skew it even further towards this being considered an acceptable greeting. It is a different demographic for sure and is definitely not incest or age play related, more of an often misinterpreted compliment and coming from the d/s angle just like daddy would.
That being said idgaf about the intention I still shut it down because it just gives me the ick. I know for some models it's really the worst thing they could have to read so on their behalf i like to drill into some of them pretty hard too.
Trust me the next generation are good spenders, these 'barely legal' (ew but true) customers have been trained up by the hours of time on social media following thirst trap 'link in bio' ladies and are fully conditioned into the 'in app purchases' and pay per view concept. Live cam is mind blowing for them. They have been itching to get their first age verifiable credit card and have little to no impulse control.

I've messed with my age a lot in the past. In general members don't notice anything wonky even if I subtract 15 years. So many models lie about their age, and everyone is accustomed to celebrities doing the same thing. FFS, the "teenagers" in high school drama TV shows are often in their 30s. I don't think anyone has any clue what women look like at various ages in reality.
That said, I never keep my listed age lowered because I tend towards being chatty/GFE, and I always end up giving myself away by blabbing about something I shouldn't have been alive for!

Think I'm going to stop even doing step roleplays. Had a guy in freechat asking if I'd do a roleplay where he was 18 and I was his step mother. All good. Then during the show I was emphasising both parts of that. Then he went and said can his step sister/my daughter join us and help me? So that was that... after him seeming to be aware of the rules.

I used to do it before, but since the mastercard rule-enforcing madness I'm being extremely careful (even paranoid), especially since I had a warning about breaking the "sharing contact info" rule after a client gave me his Facebook username against my wishes, even though I told him that I would not look it up or contact him and that it was against the rules. SM told me that next time I should just block anyone who breaks the rules, no matter if they don't know them.

Yup, I had a warning and I almost had a heart attack because I had no idea what rule I had broken, since I hadn't done anything different than usual. I even thought it was a bot monitoring me while I said "I live in the North of the UK" and it got flagged as sharing info, and that I was not allowed to talk about that anymore.
I decided to message them to get some clarification and they said it was the "sharing contact info" rule I had broken. I then remembered that guy had sent me his info and I asked them if that was it, and what to do in the future, and they told me that next time I should just block them.
Since then I'm just mega paranoid about anything and everything.
