The past few days placement has been wildly off whenever I check it. I dont focus on placement too much but its definitely been strange

Today my potentials suddenly went from many to 0, I checked my room on SM and saw that I'm offline, it happened twice.
Also in c2c members haven't their sound, but I saw live captions.

Today my potentials suddenly went from 30 to 0, I checked my room on the site and saw that I'm offline, it happened twice.
Probably a dumb question but my potentials is usually pretty low, 3 at max. I have no clue what my placement is-I stopped paying attention long ago for sanity reasons. Is it better if you have geoblocking off? I may just say fuck it and turn it off, but I would rather not if it doesn't improve my money. Just curious :) Has anyone ever had geoblocking on and then removed it with good results? Thanks!
Today someone came in my room and ask I am x from Russia you never had sex w a family member? Uhmm I suspect that this wasn't a simple customer lol. My answer was ofc incest is forbidden/not allowed here. He/she left. Then another one, straight away are you ready for roleplay? Me:yes he jump on exclusive "happy to see my sister" me not I m your step blabla. I m getting paranoid but first "family members " sounds weird. Some girls here had same??? X

I get things like that happening with several guys popping in asking for things I don't offer like 3 guys in a row asking for squirting or anal which I don't do. Also have had several guys come in saying things like "are you in ___ naming the same state which I'm not even near and thinking I will meet them for a date.
I think that happens because affiliates market us not paying attention if what they advertise is something we offer or even if it's against the terms of service, or one of those places that markets you as wanting to meet in real life and they pick an area to say we are from. You are probably being featured in a popup on their site.
I wish affiliates would work with us instead of against us, so annoying.

Well, they are only eyeing the PayPerSignup bonus, they don't care what happens after. So they are ready to play dirty for this. That's all I can think about, because I also had members, on other sites, complaining that they thought it's a dating site when they signed up.

Maybe paranoid but I was thinking that someone check on us if we are following the conduct code tbh :P well some ads is good yeah maybe not entirely transparent however bring traffic quantity not quality but ohh I prefer that to be checked out

I was actually wondering if they'd changed some of their affiliates or something recently. I've had lots of traffic the past week but it's trash traffic, none of these guys want to do anything, or they just complain about being broke. If you can't afford McDonalds why are you in my cam room?? >:(

I wonder this too.
Or, in my case it's my regulars that just pop in to say "Hi".
Yeah, dude, don't do that.
Or they say that they would play, but are at work.
I tell them, I'm at work too! Ugh!
I'll suggest to stay on my good side they should at least tip.

Trash traffic is the worst. They waste your time but never spent. Pay traffic comes in waves so does trash traffic.
As I've said, the only way I managed to stay on is ruthlessly kicking and blocking. They can play in traffic, don't play with me.

Yes, this has been happening every session for me since last Wednesday or Thursday. I have cleared my cookies+ data, changed computers, tried different browsers, updated everything and it continues to happen. I get kicked almost each time. In addition to that, my typing is not very responsive so if I type a sentence it doesnt show up for a few seconds, freezes and also kicks me off. It has happened literally every session, over and over. Im talking close to 100 times. Unreal.
..and it seems worse if more than one person joins the chat.

I thought there was something wrong with my keyboard because it was not responsive today. I only type in my shows, no audio.
Glad I know it's not me. It's SM!

My computer has been revving up every once in awhile, especially in private shows. It usually runs quiet. I'm not sure if it's the computer or SM.

Oh, I did have this at one point. I only changed my mouse battery the other day so I was confused.
If someone says "I want you pee in my mouth " it is allowed? I typed "urine is not allowed " however this is a fantasy. Ppl can just imagine? Or still forbidden? Thank you

Yes, the chat's been lagging very bad. After a while my responses start getting all messed up as I type, so I have to refresh the page every hour.

YES! This happened to me yesterday in the middle of my longest Excl block session. Thank fuck the guy came back after that and it stopped acting up because it almost costs me like $80. Ugh.

The performer/studio agreement says this:
"...you shall not depict or describe while giving a performance any act of a sexual nature involving any minor, bestiality, necrophilia, coprophilia, urine, feces, vomit, blood, or others..."
which to me translates don't even entertain it. Back in the day if a guy wanted to pee on himself in exclusive I would find it gross but didn't really care because if it makes him happy than what the fuck ever but nowadays I wouldn't even risk it, fantasy or not. with how strict everything is, just describing yourself doing it would be seen as engaging in it and not worth losing your account imo.

The past few days the traffic has been really erratic, lots of offline while online screens, the homepage and placements are fucked, the log in log out notification is still happening, having to stream in dark mode cause of screen glitch and my bitrate constantly dropping despite my speed test being the same as normal, oh and also several disconnects while live and guys not able to C2C. This is the oldest and was the biggest cam site on line.
How the fuck does a multi million dollar corporation that has been doing the same thing for their whole iteration, get this all SO wrong?! Its agony! Its sooooo disheartening.
Where is all our money going? what does that 65% pay for, cause they sure as hell dont have enough artist liasons and no one in the tech department has a clue about anything.

it's really dispiriting, i am done with SM until after the holidays. last night was so glitchy for the hour i was on, i experienced the offline screen among other lovely glitches. of course the only time my regs come by is when i am offline, they write me in messenger asking me where i’ve been. :( like sorry... i’ve been MIA cuz streamate sucks too much to be around.
i remember it was like this for me last year too, so i will have faith january will be better.

Chrome and Firefox seem nor.al for placement for me but samsung and Apple internet is royally screwed (back pages instead of normal page 1) so if you get a lot of mobile users it definitely can affect your usuall traffic I'm guessing. Support will tell you it's your hours worked or your equipment and even Liz has give me wrong info so I don't even bother telling them about the glitch anymore and the answer changes depending on who I talk to in support....
Placement glitch lasted 2 months once before and then one day magically fixed itself...
For some reason when I first started camming I just assumed all custies were just on a computer like I was lol, idk why. In reality it seems 9 times out of 10 guys I do shows with are on a phone. Could explain the abysmal traffic. haven't made a single cent yet, although I did get a late start... either way the truth of the matter is, its never busy anymore. I'll get waves of traffic but I can't remember the last time I could call a whole day genuinely busy. SM's vibe has totally changed and not for the better.

i used to tell men i wanted to shit in their mouth just as a joke but it is not allowed "human toilet role play " ect ect.
i think its banned. pretty sure. i wouldnt risk it

My traffic pretty much disappears after 4pm EST. I don't know if it's because more models are logging in at that time or what...but if I haven't made my goal by then I'm pretty much fucked. I stay on hoping to get lucky with a whale but the past couple of weeks have been atrocious come evening hours.
Streamate isn't what it used to be, that's for sure. It's been broken for way too long to feel comfortable with...and with all of the new 'strict' rules that aren't even clear I'm worried. Hoping to phase out camming in the next year or so...I don't have much faith in what's left.
