I find it so rude when someone brags about how busy they are when someone is sharing their less than great experience.
There's nothing wrong with "bragging" but it's rude and disrespectful when bragging becomes a pattern that invalides other people's experience. There's a difference between rooting for someone and say shit that makes people feel they're the problem.
That's like when someone shares their struggle with bills, it's not the time to say how much shopping you've been doing or it's been wonderful, and you're making so much money. It's not the shopping or making money that people resent but the INDIFFERENCE to their experience and struggles.
You said it much nicer than I wanted to lol. Such class <3

I liked her post because I thought it was a nice change up. I didn't think it was rude? I haven't yet taken a look at her post history. But even if you think someone is trolling please try to be kind. Some people really are oblivious and don't know how to read the room.

I said my piece more as a joke tbh, I just imagined in my head some employee at corporate typing up positive things so onlookers don't avoid the site thinking its as bad as it been lately lol.

She has a history... and it's not just her posts, it's THE WHOLE TONE of her posts that rubbed people the wrong way. Whether they were intentional or not it doesn't change how that makes people FEEL. People don't respond well when it's dismissive.

I found it rude asf. I had a whole response typed up but I just moved it to a different thread lol maybe if I wasn't quoted in that response, I wouldn't have seen it that way. But she kind of responded to my entire comment and attempted to invalidate what I was saying. You shouldn't do that to someone.

I've seen her posts disregarding others bad days and always found it disrespectful even if I didn't speak up. I just think the idea of a plant on here was funny, ( I didnt actually think that was the case) and not what happened to raven.
I hope I didn't get lost in translation. :/

Dragged out my we-vibe to have a mess about with it and check I still had the app etc. Anyway, it connected to Sm and it looks like this. How does that work for guys, do they see a choice if more than one vibe is connected? *scratches head*

I am a serial optimist and I apologize in advance if I ever upset anyone. I never ever mean to be oblivious to other models' experiences. I look to this forum and, the SM thread specifically, to gauge the overall camming sentiment. I enjoy seeing a mix of positive and negative daily experiences even if maybe everyone is having a great day and a few are having a bad day or vise versa. This thread is one of the busiest on the site and can kind of be like "The Camming Sucks" thread that was deleted a while ago if we don't have a sprinkle of positive energy here and there.
Bad days suck. Good days are awesome. If there are some models that have a great day when most of us are doing bad - to be honest, it gives me hope! "Man if she had a kick ass day/week then maybe I can too?!"
I personally had a TON of glitches on SM yesterday. It was nice seeing I wasn't alone being frustrated. Overall, paying traffic on SM is decent this week for me but, yes, parts of my working day has 1-2 hours of slowness that is brutal. Sometimes those slow periods of time are broken up and other times it feels like eternity between a valuable customer.

I checked my weekly earnings and I'm at half what I normally would have. Fuck this week AND this raggedy ass bonus! I'm not making near what I should be and ALL my regs are conveniently gone. I'm sooooo over this site.
Wow I'm sorry to hear that are you working the same schedule / hours ?
Is anybody else not getting ANY audio alerts? I can't hear anything at all

I had this issue in the middle of a show, was going great all he wanted to do was admire my thighs while he tipped me (shows like that are the best) then suddenly the audio alerts for tips stopped working and he said he couldn't hear me at all despite being able to hear me just fine up until that point. Don't know if it was a streamate issue or a him issue but when I refreshed my broadcast page it fixed itself. Although he didn't want to continue in a new show because he was fearful of it happening again ugh

It wasn't YOU nor anything said from previous posts were directed at you. I've read your posts and they were always mindfully respectful regardless of few bad days and mostly awesome days for you. I think positivity can be very uplifting but it's important to do so without invalidating someone else's experience because positivity gets lost when it's disregardful!

This week Total Transactions: 46 :(
That is usually a day plus more
AND I'm doubling my hours
traffic does not communicate
I lowered my price and same reaction
They come, leave, don't acknowledge
This is not normal
Why soo many guys type in invisible mode now?! did not see 'invisible' behind their username before?! Is this a new thing?! I cam in classic mode and from what i know guys could not see eachother presence or text while in my room but if i looked as a guest in my own room i could see all texts, now i guess nobody but me can see their text if they type in invisible mode.

Thanks hun thats exactly how it started for me I was turned away from the cam in pvt and they left and then didnt get the alert. Then it happened, again, and again. Luckily nobody was in free at the time so I didnt give any goods away LOL you know they don't deserve to see any bootycheeks for free!!!!
oh so my bitrate went crazy and lagging. my connection is top level. v frustrating omg! seems went back to normal but i lost business! LOL
if i understand some jumping in the middle of my private even 30 sec they can still me and they are not charged? why they do not charge straight away at least %...
so many they are jumping jumping! lol

I didn't know, but a customer told me my feed was pixilated I refreshed, he came back & said it was grainy..
So I restarted, he came back again, did a show said it was better.
I see the bi rate going down, I'm tired so resting now :)

anyway, I was so excited for this weeks Xmas Bonus! I bought a red bull pack and even got my hair done. I was so excited & full of energy and now i look like a damn fool lmaooo
My regulars DISAPPEARED and traffic is zero! $100 in 20 hours. All from 1 weirdo who is trying to convince me to meet him for sex.
I'm upset and disappointed.. what's happening to Streamate? It's just not as good as it was.

This week SM be like:
"We will disable room topic, remove tip notifications, users log in-log out notifications, tags, lower bitrate, cut traffic, spice it all up with some christmas glitches and will see how you 'll be struggling your ass through to get that 50% bonus";D
Luci Fer
12-16-2021, 08:55 PM
Really? I wonder if I don't have that option. Can you provide step by step instructions how to do this on SM??
yeah, it is here. Check out if you have it, I think you should, been awhile after it was released. You go there and there is "+" button and you add a pic, set a price (10$ is maximum though) or you can post 'for free" (no explicit though). Then you tick the box to note if it is 'no nudity' pic or there is 'below the waist nudity". You also add a text and choose the date of pic (I have no idea what for, lol). Then you post it for review. They review it pretty quickly.
If purchased, these pics are displayed as 'video sales' in earnings and Activity Feed in your Earnings always shows 0. #smglitch, I guess!;D
Also, you get 50% from the price you sell it for.

damn. Maybe it's worth messaging them to ask to add it to your new account?
I don't know how it works lately, because just realized nobody has purchased these pics lately. After your post I thought, maybe it is disabled on my account? lol, who knows. I am gonna add a couple of pics today and will see if they sell.

I wish I knew! I had a couple of sales right away after I used the feature first time, and I have some customers who would 100%(well, 99,9% lol) buy my pics, especially for 10$!
And they never did. Now, after Erika's post I thought maybe SM shut the feature down long ago, so it explains hwy my guys didnot buy these pics - maybe they didnot even see it! And I sit here like a fool, add pics and wonder why they don't sell ;D
Also, if I look at my profile from outside, I can see Fan Club, Videos and album of pics, but nothing like Activity Feed.

Don't panic. Yesterday I had some lame hrs (felt like a waste of time), and had to leave just when it got better. Today I decided to log on a bit later because of it. I think a lot depends on hours.
But honestly, I didnot put much effort in this week.

3 guys between yesterday and today that i have a strong cam relationship with kept getting booted from privates. It’s just been a hot mess too much to explain.
I am reporting all member accounts that seem to have issues staying connected as tech issue and cant stay in private or free chat as a tech issue. They enter I click their name if they don’t say hi and I notice in and out constantly, I report tech issue.

I am sorry, but..fucking SM, stuffed with fucking compliance and security shit, lagging so bad even when there is only 1 person in my chat, and disconnecting me.
I just wish they took this 1 week off to fix all that shit together, warning models they will be in the game on sunday again and ready and working smoothly, so during holidays it all great.
Damn, I just want it to have that simple design it used to have and work well, do I ask too much?

I usually wear the Ferri in free chat, then switch over to the Esca in shows. I keep them both on for the louder sound effect. I have had them vibrate themselves off my table before. Haha!

I honestly just think it's pre-xmas, it's slow everywhere right now! I checked my earnings for last December (which was mainly on token sites) and they pretty much exactly mirror this December too.
It's xmas next week and guys are spending their time/money on their families, not us. (Which fair enough because half of them are cheating anyway! ;D). I think it will likely be low traffic until new years
