Afternoon everyone!

Regarding uploading vids, I did some this week and this is what worked for me. I go to the video page, click the camera icon and select the vid, wait for it to start the blue bar that shows it's doing something, then LEAVE THE ROOM! Come back and check in about half an hour by going back to the main dashboard, then back to the media manager. If I'm lucky it shows as pending, if not I do it again. It worked far more often than not and I got them all done in the end.

The times it didn't work was when I did other things on other pages, or when I tried to upload more than one at once, it does not seem to like that. It is a poor system that doesn't really tell you what's going on. But doing it slowly one by one and not touching anything for about half an hour seemed to work.

I have a couple of questions too if anyone knows please?

Regarding vids, can I bundle some of my existing clips together and sell them alongside the individual ones? I do sell clip bundle deals on cam but would be nice if they could buy them when I'm not online too.

Also how much (roughly) would I need to earn next week to place top 100 or above in the contest? Just ball park, I know it varies.

TIA! xx

^ All I can think of is change 'wanna' to want to? Does wanna means osmething bad in another language ?? LOL I would love to know the answer to tha t

The issue was 'Saturday'! I'm guessing days of the week are banned because they think people will use it to arrange meets with their room topic? Seems like an odd stretch but that's the only logic I can see there lol

this is exactly what i do.
I hate this upload system

If selling them through the video id say you might want to join them in one clip OR make a video stating buying this one video will grant them access to the bundle, you just have to send it to them from your videos
bc sm doesnt seem to have a bulk

What do you do when a guy spends lets say 20 bucks on you but then sits there the rest of your shift in free chat staring at you do you let them or kick them or block them?

OMG Thank YOU! I wanted to spend yesterday uploading vids but had to give up because it wasn't working :( I seriously cannot thank you enough - I will give this a shot on my next day off :)

Hey ladies, question. So today I had someone take me exclusive and wanted me to watch their wife suck them, I declined because I wasn't sure if this was allowed? Surely another person coming in to their screen isn't in fact age verified the same way they are? Any advice on this?

Probably not allowed because the account owner is the only one who is a verified adult.

It pisses me off how we have to be the ones to police the site. There should be a big warning when they send their cam that only they can be on cam.

Maybe ask support to be sure?

I raised my prices on SM for my mental health only a dollar more but even my reg are not willing to pay they just sit in free chat stare at me say nothing I am making way less and working more

Raise them $2. Stick to it and fuck them. Better regs will come along, I assure you. Right now it's absolutely dead for everyone so it has nothing to do with your price increase. Sit in that room like you're worth that and more, because you are, and they'll believe it.

You're welcome, you may need the entire day though! I just kept doing one then carrying on with other stuff, crossing my fingers then doing the next one! Some still didn't work even doing it this way but I just kept trying. On the plus side the were all approved very fast, within a few hours. Not sure if I got lucky!

Does anyone know please how much we need to do to place in the top 100 in the contest, roughly? I know I just asked this lol but it was at the end of a lengthy post and not relevant to the rest of it! :)

Thus far this year has been better for me, but not a massive difference. My trend of good/bad months is the same pattern as last year though. Keep in mind that last year many people were still in lockdown and legally not allowed to go into work. So millions of dudes were watching porn/cams all day long instead of working, those same guys are now back in the office etc

Honestly, back in the day before I got pregnant (over 6 years ago) it was much the same. This is the first year that I've been doing similar hours to back then. I'm making more, for doing less. That Doesn't mean that I don't have dead hours/ shit days. Gotta keep on trucking through the quiet times.

WOOOOWWW this was an INSANE point. A great one, for sure. I know when I started back when I was 24, I was a lot younger and I did more things that I don't do now. I don't do anal, bbc (not because I'm racist my body literally can't take a bbc dildo inside anywhere), femdom, joi, spit and most roleplays now. When I was younger I was desperate and took anything, I also was a lot thinner and had more energy to do the "hard dildo ride" shows but I'm too fat and old for that shit now, lol! I'm not nearly as desperate now, I've got a lot more respect for myself and I turn more people away than I use to.

Yeah I don't necessarily mean things like 'have you gained weight since then,' or 'were your shows more hardcore then,' since weight gain doesn't = less attractive or less $$$ and hardcore doesn't = more $$$. But just in general, as a whole, is your product better at attracting more spenders and better spenders than it was X years ago.

I wasn’t on today, but wanted to mention that serval models posted on Twitter that members were having site issues like crazy today. Especially on mobile. I’ve been off since Thursday, but noticed a bunch of girls rooms appearing with black screens and weird traffic. My regulars said they were having issues logging in etc. So, if you’ve had a bad time (and you typically do well) these issues probably have to do with most of it.

I checked in on SM from mobile going from room to room Friday-Saturday. It was full of lagging, blank screens, errors, and robotic voiced models.

I would say it's a combination of glitchy site + tax month leaving clients broke and getting more models online + week before payday. SM has been pretty garbage fo me but I'm doing well on indie because I decided to up my prices and ask for extras for specific practices, and the difference in my income has been VERY noticeable.

One of my tags on SM is "very expensive" and I leave it cause I like it. Since I put my prices up I get review comments saying things like "totally worth it" and "best value" too, see the connection? It's really psychological: if you pay good money for something you are predisposed to feel like you spent your money right. People look at something cheap and think: something must be wrong with it.

I am proud of what I offer as an entertainer and I feel is totally worth it indeed. I just wish I had put my prices up from the very beginning, but I was too afraid back then.

In conclusion, as someone wiser than me said once on this forum: if nobody complains about your prices, your prices are too low.

I was having the mobile issue w customers last week. The week was still good.

I dont say anything like “your screen is black” bc it’s usually the same thing very time, a dick.
If they ask me if I see them I will let them know but one guy out of all cam2cam shows asked.

For those of you who use Paxum how long does it take for the money to hit your bank once you’ve done a transfer?

I’m using it for the first time and doing an EFT transfer to a UK Bank. (I couldn’t find a Paxum thread so thought I’d ask here!)

I think the favorites section is glitching as I highly doubt they really went up by 900 while I was offline last night.

For those of you who use Paxum how long does it take for the money to hit your bank once you’ve done a transfer?

I’m using it for the first time and doing an EFT transfer to a UK Bank. (I couldn’t find a Paxum thread so thought I’d ask here!)

I do my EFT on a Thursday evening usually, typically it's in my RBS account on Tuesday morning. This week it was early, today.

How are you girlies?
Today was terrible, absolutely everyone was complaining they were getting kicked out of the room within seconds only those who are very persistent stayed and yet got kicked out of pvts/excl .
My PC/broadband or general SM glitches are back?

I'm always in awe at models who are absolutely killing it at getting tipped & getting their room to interact like that. I can't wait to be at that level!

I think I can, but also I'm probably an overly confident person lol. I intend to be in the camming game long-term so as long as sites are around and i have internet access then there's always time to improve and learn new skills! If you're worried about your selling skills just remember that they improve over time.

I don't see any reason why it's not theoretically possible for others to reach that level- it doesn't even have to be on SM or a private site, could be any cam site really ;D.

Can confirm! As a gal in my 20s, I look up to the women in their 40s and 50s very much. They're killing it!
