traffic was non existent today. I made under $10 on Streamate. Another site knocked me to low goal but it was not worth live streaming today at all.

the payment hold is completely normal as we discussed a few days ago. dont worry! when i had my payment hold starting on sm i was literally moving and had to come up with my deposit and i had thought i would have the sm funds. and i didnt! omggg . it was sooo fucking stressful waiting for that payment hold unexpectedly.
i hope you can hang in there with your bills and such.
but they will pay you . make sure you double check your account details with your bank or whatever you are using

I wonder if this is a camming issue as a whole... my adultwork account has apparently been suspended because of an inactive email... eventhough my email is active. Trying so so hard not to cry

I had this yesterday too. I made $30 in over 2 hours. But kicked so many ppl from the room because they were just sitting there for ages.
Sun was so hard to sit through. I started at midnight on 3 hrs rest & streamed 9 hrs til 2pm. It was slow AF & yesterday? Fucking nightmare. You're not alone. Never alone.
Thank You ladies. That's very comforting to know that it wasn't just me.
I commited the cardinal sin to peek into a top model's room. Well, top when she pops on only during contests.
She had over 30 guys in there, and the tips/shows were flowing.
It was a mindfuck for sure.
I'm not in my 20's anymore (far from it).
But there are lots of models that are, yet their rooms were dead too.
Makes me wonder, is all.

How is everyone handling their cam rates on SM with inflation/hyperinflation around the world? Rent in my town has increased by almost 30% in the last year and general inflation is at 7%. I'm really not sure how to react and feel a bit dumb...

I just wanted to comment that today my placement is finally back to normal. It messed up Sunday night and didn’t improve until I logged on a few minutes ago. Normally if it messes up, it takes no longer than any hour.

a lot of us don't know how to react and dont feel dumb. i think a lot of us hope it will go away. poof be gone
i am worried about customers cutting spending habits.

so true. I had a big spender - he spent 30k with me in 6 months (i consider this a big spender). He started to complain a little bit about how high his credit cards were - I haven't seen him in 2 weeks. He hasn't responded to any of my messages either. Some of them are cutting spending habits or maybe it's just the tax season...
I can only hope that march will be better for us. The World Cup is this summer but I highly doubt americans watch it, do they?

I have also had big spenders like this and in my experience they ALWAYS disappear eventually . But that's right when another big spender takes his place . Every guy will get tired of spending on the same girl when there is 1000's of other to spend on . That's the truth unfortunately

Y’all I found full gold show recordings and other free chat recordings post on “livecams” of myself with ridiculous titles that are even borderline against the rules by what seems to be a catfish account of some other model. I reached out to support with all the links and their response was that they work with that website and they believe all the clips posted there help bring traffic to our site…ummm wtf. There was no link or mention of my live cam chat. Why would anyone spend a dime when they can watch me perform my shows for free in SEVERAL different videos. I’m not sure if support just refused to check the links I saw or if it’s actually true. But basically they told me to take it up with live cams and they won’t help…cool
ETA * I do see a link to click after all. I’m still uncomfortable MINIMALLY with the verbiage they are using in the titles. They gave me a direct email to contact the “person in charge of posting videos there” so I guess I’ll email him

I do watch it but i love soccer. we get hype in this house.
its not really popular like American football is
we have march madness... https://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2022-march-madness-schedule
I am from the south east USA and basketball will shut down businesses bc the games are more important. owners shut down or close early to watch this.
i worked in a high end day spa and we played basketball on the TV during the march madness.
baseball kicks off the official season march 31
I have acpl guys not spending and it sucks but we can replace them with other high spenders.

I raised my rates and will be doing it again soon. I'm going to go back to vanilla work, build up my indie customers and phase out sm all together. Then eventually, I'll go full vanilla work and phase out sex work. The men are becoming more demanding, spending less and the number of reputable sites is dwindling. I'm over it. Life is becoming far too expensive for me to keep dealing with this bs.

Ughhh, so it's obviously hard to know for sure, but I think an ex that I cut off a while ago figured out how to get around my geo-blocking, and then set up multiple accounts, and I didn't realize until he started to c2c. I reported it to sm to cover my ass, and I'm sure I'm not the only model to have this happen, but seriously- WTF?! I've never dealt with this before. Advice is most definitely welcome :)

Gather up all the links to these videos and send them to Liz with a DMCA request. Every six months or so I do a deep dive on Google and try to find as many recordings of myself as possible, then I send them all to Liz in one email list. (I don't want to bother her too often with single links). She has gotten 98% of them removed.
FYI, SM and whitelabels are allowed to record and post your stream. Personally I've never found any free chat recordings other than maybe a minute or two before a gold show included in the full gold show video. But it's all considered "promotional material" so my understanding is they can record and post whatever they want. The only way to prevent it is to have geoblocking on. (Even then that wouldn't stop a regular customer from screen-recording/pirating and posting it somewhere, but in my experience this happens a lot less often.)

Yeah, I had a 45 minute block during the log in issue on the 11th that went over time.... Still haven't seen a cent of that 48 minutes and 50 seconds or heard back from support about my earnings..
Finally heard back from support- they are forwarding my issue to the accounting department. Progress! Thought I'd mention since I'm not the only one waiting :heartbeat:

Same. Guys who spent a few months ago are coming back to tell me they can't do that anymore.
It's like if you go to Neiman Marcus and buy a bunch of stuff. A few months later you go back in and say "I can't afford to shop here anymore." lol

you can report him to support for having multiple accounts if you are sure it is him
continue to block him, hopefully he will get tired of making new accounts

That's the tricky way for them to ask you for feces which is strictly prohibited so yeah they know It's not allowed but looking for a way into getting this show anyways.
I don't think the word is banned, i curse a lot and i think i have typed it lately? lol

If you close down your SM profile does anyone know if this means they have to delete anything they have of you from before? Or would that be "their" property from when you were streaming? I want to quit SM for various reasons and just wondered if deleting my profile removes me from anything they are using on white labels or not? Hope that makes sense? I tried to contact support but getting an answer was tricky. I will refer to Liz but thought I would ask here?

I just started looking for a regular 9-5 vanilla job, this is way to stressful. I was making like $50 an hour now i sit online for 4 hours to make $25 all together. I think its our economy, I think we are definitely headed for another recession and as mentioned previously March Madness, the Okympics, etc. Overly saturated market.
Ill do clips on the weekend and upload after work cuz its great residual income. Because I can’t wait and the slowness kills my attitude and attention to my rooms. Promoting Skype shows is also another great idea. Best of luck gals🍀

If you didn't get it, there is no reason really to wait. If you received it in previous years - use the same payer ID and enter it as a 1099-NEC. TurboTax Self Employed guides you right through the process. Not sure how much to claim? Look at your bank account statements for each month. Tally up the deposit amounts Jan-Dec 2021 on Google Sheets or Excel. Easy peasy.

The point I was making is that I did better on MFC than SM. In that same time, I made 0 on SM. And honestly, MFC has been treating me better than SM this year which is a shame because SM has been my main egg for 7 years and it isn't anymore

Idky this says to mail crap. I can promise you I don’t mail shit lol
If you are looking for 1099s from earlier years, you can contact the IRS and order a “wage and income transcript”. The transcript should include all of the income that you had as long as it was reported to the IRS. All you need to do is fill out a Form 4506-T and mail or fax it off to the IRS.Jan 21, 2022

My anxiety is taking a hit too..these lows are really difficult for us, as if this job wasn't already mentally draining. I hope you feel better. I know it always seems to turn around and we have to stick through it. But damn its difficult to keep myself from spiraling into a self hate fest

I think a lot of us are going to have to split or dual cam to get through this inflation. I’ve been logging what traffic/money is like every day/hour for January and February, and it’s all over the place. I thought maybe I could nail down a good schedule even if it was split— not really. (For reference, my placement tanked to mid second page). I’ve been keeping up with my goal by working a split 4-6 hr shift 7 days a week. Occasionally 6 days.

i think a lot of you will be shocked how much money you can make while in a recession/inflation.
right now the season is normal so don't worry to much.
it is naturally slow
ppl pay taxes, doing taxes, paying off christmas credit cards and still manage to get off 2 or 3 mins online
