or what about running $0 to join gold shows? All day!
It's impossible to be bored with $0 GS.

wow, i didn't mean to start something but I had to ask
my advice if you are sitting on cam bored, its easy to make videos when camming (foot fetish is a good one) even if its 10 buck a day earned, thats 300 extra monthly to cushion the blow of camming sometimes
all the clip sites and not just one
you don't need a full production or nice camera as guys love amatuer w a webcam or even a phone.

Welcome back bigbum, hope you have an exceptional comeback even on your old backup! I think someone asked me here about the fees with Masspay, maybe Christie? I cannot find the post. Well, I think, is similar fee to Paxum from my memory, we get in usd in MassPay and cost 4$ fee and the exchange fee is 1$=£0.73 similar exchange to Paxum I believe. To get usd in usd bank account wire is 28$ from my memory. If anyone worked a much cheaper way of not losing too money receiving from Streamate directly I welcome any input. I lose around £33 I think to get £1000 and a bit.

Nope, this morning is tits up. I use only streamate and when i logged on didn't wanted me to start because connection issue, internet issue it was telling me. Everything perfect here. Glitches galore. Yesterday i had members typing me with invisible in chat when i was in classic chat and not party. They are messing something on the site.

It's slow on all the sites. I am on 4 sites and they are all dead, even top models are sucking it in freechat. It's definitely not just you.
On the other hand, many are taking days off for holidays, the Xmas- NYE week especially and there are tons of models online now, making money for it.

I can't find it explicitly on the Code of Conduct page either but it clearly says this on the SM FAQ. https://streamatehelp.com/streaming-rules-faq
"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."
Code of Conduct states nothing obscene "including but not limited to...", so even though incest is not specifically listed in the list it's been pretty clear via support responses on this forum as well as the FAQ note that it is not allowed.
Thanks for clarifying.

I know how u feel, hugs! :-*:-*
This week is terrible for me as well, earnings are very low, i only cam 3 hrs per shift/day because is useless to stay more and i want to catch some night hrs sleep.
I got soo irritated with a guy last nite, he came in asking for heels talking like he was gonna come pvt, i asked him what he likes, he said pumps, i got 2 pairs on cam from under my bed where i keep them, he picked his favorite, i invited him to pvt to wear the heels in there and he said "i cant spend now, i save up for Christmas", i felt like smashing his head thorough the screen.
Tried to be calm and told him its Christmas for me too and what does he expect, to show him for free?! He said "No, not expecting that". At that point i hit the Stop show button, could not take it anymore, it was 2 am here and i was hoping for a pvt before logging off for the nite as i only made few dollars from a short pvt for the whole time i was online, the 3 hrs. I was fuming!
I think many of us are affected by how dead SM is lately, this year was soo bad over the summer and its not recovering i see, normally in october things are getting better but not this year.
I can only send u hugs and hopes, take care xxx
Sorry that happened hun. I used to hate guys asking to show things and then disappearing or saying they can't spend which is why now whenever anyone wants to see anything, they must tip, even if it's small, usually about 2 gold, it's a good test for if they're serious, they can hardly argue 2 dollars is extortionate else they were never going to spend on you anyway. Then if they fuck off after seeing the item, at least you got paid some small thing for getting up and finding the item lol.
Good luck everyone grinding for that bonus week! As Cutie says, just focusing on the hours and getting on with it. Love and positive vibes to everyone :)

Saw this on my social media
https://twitter.com/StreamateEurope/status/1469562616867602435
I'm going to miss seeing checks in my mailbox.
Right now I'm using Paxum, and will get Cosmo payment as a backup.
I'm skeptical about these online options
agh yeah me too. it's a bit of a pain going into the bank to cash cheques but the exchange rate seems much more favourable. i'm not happy about this! i got the wire transfer for a few payouts, but by the time they'd taken their fee plus the exchange from dollars to euros to pounds, i was quite horrified by how much i was losing. does anyone know which option has the smallest fees/best rate etc.?

hey girlie!! yes its great to be back.
those sick pervs missed me and i am making them pay . lol
i think you are in the uk right?
i am a usa based model.
i receive payout via ETRADE bank each week.
loosing 33 out of every 1000 is a lot! and already you earn money in USD and compared to GBP it doesnt go as far in the uk thats for sure!
converting usd to GBP is painful already even without the exchange rate robbery
thats why i wouldnt move to the uk because your currency is so valuable compared to the usd it would hard to live.
have you considered taking a pay out less often? what would happen if you just took payment 1 time per month?
not everyone can do that i know, but maybe it would save you some £
they are getting you on the exchange rate, the transfer fee, ect.
i have honestly no ideas at all in short of somehow registering a usa bank account
have you looked into as a uk citizen registering an online bank account in the usa?
i dont think its possible. but i am not too sure.

SMH when regs say shit like 'but I've been very good to you.' or 'I've spent so much on you.' as a free pass to freeload and waste time.
I didn't know be good to me or spend on me so you can later use that as manipulation was a mutual agreement.

I don't watch cams that much unless it's very dead, but I went into a gorgeous girls room and literally sat for more than 10 min before someone entered her room. It's wild. This same week last year was dead AF too, but in 8 hrs I made about $150. I just can't even lololll.
Thanks for chiming in. I'm gonna sit for a little bit more. Maybe a reg or whale will stop in. If it doesn't get any better in about 30 min I'll just stream a shit ton tomorrow.
Ain't gonna stop me from STFO my 40 hrs this week tho. I hear ya. If you can take it off, why not?
UPDATE:
Well, this is good news: favorites shot up from yesterday by 18 soooooo some members just aren't ready for a show yet. These almost 7 hrs haven't been in vain :D

You go girl! Thank you for replying and also to Amica, unfortunately SM won't allow me to create a direct deposit via other third parties and is no other method to not lose money really apart of just cashing out less often. Hard habit as i used to get sooner money via Boleyn models and now i am playing catch up with my debts and till i get somewhere better financially just carry on. Being poor cost you more always lol.

just noting -- i worked a 4.5ish hour shift tonight and it kind of sucked. minimal new traffic but always had at least a handful of regs hanging out. so i made some tips and conversation and got one gold show and a short exclusive out of it, but nothing spectacular. after i did the bonus math it is going to basically be what i'd consider a "below average/decent" night for the same amount of time.
so i am just going to try to put in some hours and hope i don't end up with a less than average week overall, and will be satisfied (not necessarily happy) with my usual average hourly goals once i include the bonus.

You're welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful.
Question for you all in terms of the eligible earnings. I have a guy who doesn't have the time to grab a show with me so he's been sending me a bunch of offline tips, does this count towards the bonus?
And what about items purchased from the wishlist? Guessing that doesn't count as they are using their bonus points.
Thanks in advance for the advice! I just want to make sure I'm calculating that bonus right lol. Good luck today girls. Let's do our best to stay positive, we're at the dipping point of the week, at least we're all in the same boat together.

* All performers are eligible to participate. Bonus earnings are determined by your eligible earnings (this excludes Video sales, Fan Club subscriptions, Cammodel earnings, and Partner Site earnings, which do not count towards your rewards)
I guess your case is count as eligible earnings! I also think gold shows count too, right?
They mentioned it didnot count in previous bonus weeks.
This bonus week looks special. No 25 hours torture, gold shows count and amazing 50% hahahaha

I think you're mistaken... In all my years on SM I've never seen a contest or bonus where gold shows were specifically not included. Also they've done 30% holiday bonus weeks without a minimum hours contingency for several years. This year the bonus being 50% is new, yes, but it seems like they did this in anticipation of the glitches and awful traffic we're all experiencing.

ouch, yes, I was wrong about gold shows! I am sorry.
I just re-read their previous messages about bonus weeks, nothing about excluding goldshows.
And I agree about glitches - I also thought they offer such bonus because they know it might be a shitty week lol.

Haha it doesn't make a difference, since the account is the same :)) If I was camming from two different countries, probably... yes. But since the apartaments are close to each other, there's no diffference whatsoever :)))
Why SM is forcing me to display a country. I don't wanna say where I am from, I don't wanna lie about my country, I just don't wanna say shit!
I change my country every 2 weeks, every 2 weeks i have dudes asking me if i truly am from that country. Fucking weirdos!
Lol. I don't change it and ppl from my country don't believe that I m from my own country bc I m speaking 3 languages and I am living abroad. Same as fake boobs or lips or blabla. When they doubt my words I block them LOL no sure if it is the right thing to do however I m not going to convince them :P I take it short!!! More we shouldn't share location so....why they aren't just play and ask questions that doesn't matter
This to say that whatever you do you ll find weirdos.
