Hello!

I haven't used SM in forever, and am wondering how to connect my c920 using my Macbook if anyone knows. I remember using the SM broadcast or web interface last time, not the encoder, and it wasn't obvious how to connect the camera. Any help is super appreciated!

Hi space_cowgirl, I use a MacBook Air & c920. You will need a USB-C to USB Adapter (i think) to connect the 920 to the Macbook. It depends on the ports on your Macbook. Adapter was 19 at the Apple Store when I bought mine last April.

If SM broadcast is not recognizing your camera (under Settings on the right above the chat box), then log into FaceTime or Skype to get the camera recognized on your Mac - select c920 instead of built-in camera, and the camera should come on, then go back to SM Broadcast and try again. I hope this makes sense and helps.

I came back to SM after a long absence and things have changed a little.

Has anyone here switched from days to nights recently? My traffic has been awful for a month now and I'm making no money. Anyone finding nights to be better? Things were fine for me until April and it's not getting any better. This is also across all platforms at this point, but my main money maker was SM and it's failing me now.

I just realized that I've been taken out of the interactive vibrator category. I'm wondering if that is why my traffic has dropped so much.

Is there a way to increase the time allotted for gold shows? I want to do overnight sleep shows, but obviously I sleep longer than 5 hours.

Wow it goes up to five hours for Gold shows? Imagine doing that awake! I don't know the answer but do consider that if you got disconnected you'd lose anything you earned during the show, if you were asleep you would never know until you woke up.

It'd be safer if you set an alarm to wake up to start multiple gold shows with shorter time allotted for each. If the show disconnects for any reason you lose all the money and 5+ hours leaves a lot of time for that possibility. I've lost way too much money that way and it still stings. I only do short ones now and start a second if I want a longer one

I am doing 2 shifts, because daytime is the pits lately. I had interactive vibrator removed by Streamate, and I think it does have some bearing on my income. I used to 'fake' it, but unless a guy asks if I have a tip vibe, that's out.
Nighttime does seem busier.

I just logged off.
Horrible shifts.
It took me twice the time to make my goal.
I've never seen so many of the same screennames keep popping into my chat.
They never tip or buy a show.
I've been calling them out on it.
In the 13 years that I've cammed here, let's just say this year is.....different.
Not to mention what the stock market and bitcoin just did.
I guess we'll just be working longer hours to get through it.

My last show of the night gave me a 3 rating. He was really into the show.
He ruined my perfect 5 rating. Not that one rating matters.
What a wonderful way to end my night.::)

This was me on Sunday. My hourly took a really big hit. Usually if I’m having a slow shift and stick it out instead of logging off cause it’s quiet, it balances out in the end somewhat.
I stuck it out for nearly 8hrs on Sunday and it didn’t balance out at all. I can’t remember it being that slow for a full nights work since probably before lockdown.

I also found the whole of last week to be a hell of a lot of extra work and energy just to get my normal weekly goal.

omgg the same thing happened to me a few days ago! some asshole rated me 2 stars because he didnt like my private show lol
and then had the never to come back an hour later and ask for an exclusive! i blocked the prick right away. and same thing ruined my perfect 5 star streak for the 90 days!
i even had 7 5 stars that that day i was so excited!
night and sunday i just couldnt. i just logged off.
i kept thinking it was my attitude because my period is coming or some other stress i have right now. but i dont think that could explain not making a few bucks. lol


oh and yeah tonight ALL I HAD for "clients " the whole night were people i had written L, LL, and LLL for lurking , lurking a lot, and lurking a ton.
ROFL.
that was like the whole site tonight. no regs no spenders. and the few regs didnt even want to spend i had to twist their arms for a few 1,1,1 tips.

i hope it picks up or ill be working 7 hr shifts.

earlier this month it was CRAZY busy for me.

I'd take the exclusive! If the pvt was too long to remove the 2*, if he comes back and rates again higher then it deletes the 2*. I know it sucks to have a poor rate return but on some occasions it's the best way of changing the rate without asking support to deal with it x

I worked my night shift and while it was better than my dayshift, it was definitely still extremely slow. My placement is definitely the issue. Still not sure if it has anything to do with the interactive vibe or not. I had that set up and it didn't make a difference with my traffic. Ugh. I'll try again in the morning.

Last week it was my lowest hourly weekly earning in 14 weeks. However, yesterday was a great day on SM. It's a great site but god damn does it have it's ups and downs.

I've asked support & had them remove low ratings, js.
Sorry that happened.

I don't like to wait it out, sometimes it takes awhile to get the ratings back..

Just incase it isn't something you follow, USD is up on EUR and GBP so if you have many European visitors, and have set rates, your prices are appearing approx 17% higher to mainland and even higher to UK visitors than this time last year.

Not saying you should do anything about it but it might be worth being aware :)

ETA: these areas also pay VAT on top of the rate so for a UK customer as an example, spending $10 ($12) is now costing £9.96 (actually over £10 when the currency is converted by SM). This time last year it would have cost £8.49.

looks like the video purchases are showing up as exactly that in the customer history now! woot woot

ETA: For models that made the switch from BM on daily pay to directly with SM, I was wondering how long the gap in pay would be if I choose to go back to directly to SM. I read that we can request to have 1 week in arrears instead of the standard 3 weeks. Say for example, I made the switch the first full week of July, would it be the 2nd week I receive my pay directly from SM or the 3rd week?

When i went direct I had to have the first payment on the 3 week delay but was able to update to 1 week right after.

I always speak to my clients about my rate as "GOLD" not USD. For instance I would say that to see tits is 10 Golds. None of my business what you actually get charged for that But now I am curious if they see my hourly rate as Gold or if it shows right away what they will be paying in their own currency. Does anyone know??

It shows up as Gold until they go to spend the money - it then tells them how much actual money they'll spend for that gold. It's been a while since I've logged into my customer account though - could've changed.

I always speak to my clients about my rate as "GOLD" not USD. For instance I would say that to see tits is 10 Golds. None of my business what you actually get charged for that But now I am curious if they see my hourly rate as Gold or if it shows right away what they will be paying in their own currency. Does anyone know??

The price for private or exclusive is quoted in local currency. They never see your USD rate unless they are in the US.


Support page explains it like this:

June 20, 2020 Value of GOLD
One GOLD is always equal to $1 USD. This means viewers in Canada, the UK, or anywhere else, will be charged the equivalent of $1 USD in their own currency to send you 1 GOLD. The amount you earn from GOLD is always the same, making your earnings report easier to understand.

So a 10 gold flash is costing $12, which is converting to over £10 at the moment, it used to cost a bit less.

To a potential customer registered as spending GBP or EUR, the advertised cost of a show has been increasing daily.

So I've had issues with my lush this week, but it's connection related... on my home internet, which is too slow to stream on, it connects with no problems. On my Verizon internet, which is my streaming speed connection, it won't connect, even if I set everything up the same. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this or, like, who to email for help? Not sure if it's a me, lovense, or streamate issue.

How do you guys deal with subs who want a full-time "owner"? I've been getting a lot of requests for this lately and I'm not sure how to go about it. One guy told me he would pay a certain amount each week, but none of these subs are wanting to be in private chat regularly, moreso it seems they want me to PM them daily? That seems like a lot of work for little reward. Should I just be turning these guys down?

I LOVE these guys. I tell them if they tip me (the amount of gold I feel like it's worth for that specific guy) then that'll buy them a week. It's usually a crazy number and most people don't take me up on it LOL but if they do it's easy money for me - usually between 500 and 2000 depending on how out there their wants are. One easy one wanted a message a week - I asked for 200 a week, he actually did it for a few weeks. One guy wanted to dom me with daily check ins, photos, and a video or two a week - I asked for like 3000 gold because fuck that. There's no right answer, ask for what feels right for how difficult it would be for you.

So many of these "subs" say they want to be owned, but they're all talk. On the rare occasion you do get a serious guy, it's typically short lived but money is money.

I'd make up whatever number works for you for the amount of work you're being asked to provide.

Agree. 95% of cam subs are fake subs. I call them vanilla subs and with the rise of pegging and light femdom in mainstream porn they are getting more and more prevalent, they are spreading and growing like a nasty disease. Want to be 'owned' right from the bat, topping from the bottom, backing out when it gets challenging (when it gets exciting for a real sub!). Thats how you recognize them.

Its also why the discourse and critique about 'Insta Dommes' bothers me. We are supposed to be 10000% into it while 95% of so called 'subs' arent even real while all they WANT is some Mean Girls-esque chewed out insults while they send their 50 bucks for the month pounding their own asshole with a 10cm dildo and the moment it gets more challenging they back out? Lololol. Just take their cash and let them be.

Its one of the reasons I've toyed with the idea of getting into pro Domme work, in a proper dungeon where I can really learn the ropes (pun intended). Those guys are more the real deal and I just enjoy domination so much. It gives me a massive thrill, not a sexual one but its the best feeling truly getting a man weak.

Anyone else getting an influx of customers for the first hour your on and then the traffic comes to a halt. This also seems to happen after shows, I am wondering if customers are getting that glitch saying I'm still in a show.....

Any news on Paxum payments?

BUMP. Has *anyone* received payment from Paxum to their bank in the past week? I'm coming up on 5 business days and I've almost always gotten it next day. I've heard of a few others having issues. After reading a previous post I'm starting to panic!

Another week long contest. Oh joy. ::)
I'm sure there will be another one for 4th of July.
Plan accordingly.
I'm done with these contests, especially during the summer slowdown.
I'm going to use the time to add more sites and work on my other sites.
*I just noticed ( on mobile viewing), that there is a tip vibe button toggle.

I can't for the LIFE OF ME understand why they keep doing these stupid contests over and over again. What is the point really?

I haven't participated in not one contest they've done in two years.

I did my transfer on Thursday and received it in my bank Mon 13th. Some weeks it's as late as Wednesday for me. I'm in Scotland if that would affect anything.

I always stop streaming and start again. I've noticed this for the past few weeks and I'm thinking that it's a glitch as well. Doesn't happen every time I do a show, but it's a noticeable new issue.

FFS with these CONTESTS!

I really wish they would announce these further in advance - like a month out or even have a yearly contest schedule posted. This last minute shit is disrespectful AF. Why is this so hard for them to do? I am sure ALL models would appreciate a more timely heads up about this. We all have lives and have things going on, and not all of us are willing to sit through the bad traffic and glitches during a contest week... Some of us have budgets and weekly goals in place that these random contests fuck up.

Sorry for ranting but this is annoying AF.

Right. I had plans to work through next week take a couple days off the following week but knowing how contest weeks are..that's not gonna happen. I know it's business but damn if they didn't point all their traffic to the top models on contest week we might could see random people win. But what can ya do? nothin. So I'm still gonna sit in a dead room and manifest my way to a decent week lol ���� Hope everyone does great...even the top models :)

My stream quality keeps saying poor and fair, and I know it's not on my end. Stream looks fine though so idk wtf is going on lately. I had one connection issue earlier when my cam disconnected. Not sure if that's my cam, my computer or SM.

Well I mean, they do one just about every month and it's always either the last or the second-to-last week of the month, so I'm not sure why everyone always acts so surprised whenever there's a contest. They're extremely consistent.

That's still 2 weeks of vague though...... Would it be that hard for them to give us a month notice? I think that is a fair ask.
