Can anyone who uses the Blue Yeti explain how I can get the 'gold' alert and "private/exclusive alerts to work?
I checked the boxes in the settings, but I still don't hear the notification.
I'm using a Windows 7 laptop, if that helps.
Thanks so much.
I'm going to post in the microphone thread if nobody here knows.
I found the Blue yeti sets my laptop speakers to the yeti. Open up your system menu, go to sounds, select which ever speakers you want to use. Hope that helps.

I don't like posting this type of stuff, here but I reported him.
This is insane. However something in me tells me this may be a guy that I got wrapped up with on my free cams. The guy was an absolute psychopath and a total tweaker. I took a Skype show from him because he was making me laugh on laugh on MFC, because he wasn't saying anything political at all. Next thing I knew on our Skype show he was showing me some shit I really wish I didn't see and I ended up ending the session early despite getting his money. He kept saying let's go Brandon and he hated black people in the Skype session.

In all honesty please write Liz about this. I had to email her because the sounds on my end have completely changed. I no longer hear when people come in as it doesn't make a sound anymore. And the sounds when I get tipped or be taken private are completely quiet and can barely be heard. Not to mention They are different sounds now. I saw another model having issues with c2c Sound yesterday and it made me feel like I wasn't alone. Ever since the new sounds have come in my sound has been completely jacked up in C2c

I use the Yeti and I can't remember what it auto-set when I installed it but you do need to set your sound input different to the output, the input being the Yeti and output your speakers or whatever you like to use. To find the page in Windows I right-click on the sound icon in the bottom right of my screen next to the date and time, then Open Sound Settings, then you can choose the input and output options from the drop down menus.
I haven't had a change in the sounds I hear on SMConnect though? That's just weird.

I’m on my phone so it’s hard to quote everyone
Carmen- I can change them out but I’ve wasted so much money on dildos that suck in general so I’m not happy buying new. I do have the Shane diesel replica but that toy is the worse of all. It does fit the machine w the connectors
Susperia- It was so intriguing that I wanted it. I hoped it would work but no, not for me. It’s unrealistic to use that thing for hours and the guys that go private lol send one gold, wait a few seconds send another gold lol straight torture
Camgirl91- omg you feel my pain lol
My lowest setting was like the sloth from zootopia. And regular pounded me but would move out and hit my inner thighs.
The funny one was when on the floor aiming it up to me but it kept sliding away so I’d slide with it trying to keep it in… all you could see was my fuckn forehead lol
MelanieJ- I have seven more hours to get a extra 100
I can’t. Not today just bc my mind isn’t there.
Thanks for the honest insight on the fuck machine. I really haven't heard anyone talk about it, I just see girls using it and wondered how they felt about it and if it was really worth it.

As long as you open their profile once, their UID is saved in your browser history (assuming you have history switched on). It can be a bit tricky from there to find them, because their username isn't in the URL or page title. I use a modified version of this Chrome extension to allow searching full text of my browser history: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/falcon/mmifbbohghecjloeklpbinkjpbplfalb?hl=en
Thank you! I need to try that. I'm on Chrome, all my history is deleted. But yes so I can retrieve it later.

I think he 's just a fucking troll. So good you blocked him. Don't let him or these saying all kind of such shit get into your mind, ever. I start to think some guys are getting bored with just jerking off to camsites and have problems with communication, so they try to "fuck" girls this way. Losers.

I can't even get mine to connect any more let alone respond to tips! It's connected on the app, it says Lush ON and my internet is the same for app and Streamate but the icon won't turn blue and the new icon that shows up on the site on the customer's side has disappeared :(
How are you girls getting it to connect please?

Keep hitting "Refresh Status" while hovering over the Interactive Toy button once you've connected it. I sometimes have to hit it several times before it will stay on and it will show on the customer side. It's working for me, but there's obviously some kinks they still need to work out.

Thanks so much Sugar I thought I was going mad, I saw that they have changed the way we can set the levels and got all excited... then I logged on and it wouldn't connect. I hate faking it and of course tonight is the night when they are tipping 100s at a time as if they know I'm faking it, I feel like a fraud. Sort it out Streamate!

have you hovered over tip toy icon and click it from that? the box pops under it. I clicked until it connected using lush
finally caught the guy (Reported) i think is using stolen credit cards. it took 3 times before i was sure
i think he is buying accounts
i lost lot of time connection today. not sure if it is me only. someone having some issue today? only SM tho! others websites still fine.

hey u guys , can i ask if you guys have traffic issues this week ? it as been extreme here , like suddenly my room is now empty for tens of minutes and im not sure how to make sense of it , is it the traffic is something wrong with my room ..
i would appreciate some answers to help me understand this situation
IvyRose
06-29-2022, 05:52 AM
Yes I have the same issue
Traffic only coming in after minutes of being logged in.... or suddenly none coming in at all..... or abnormally slowly coming in, as in maybe 1 in 2 minutes
Sometimes i get lucky and it goes back to normall, than after i get a show usually its back to abnornall again. As in minutes without anyone enterig
Very frustrating
I have not been actively streaming on streamate for a long time, so i dont know if this is because of my inactivity; but I actually dont believe this bec of the small periods were it works "normally"

Same here, my room was a graveyard last night, i had a couple of guys at the beginning, then one at 2 mins...i couldn't handle it more than 2 hours and logged out. Let's see how it's going to be today.
This week i feel like im a contest, no matter what i do, how long im staying on...no traffic!

omg me too . literally no one in my room for minutes low room counts. and my hourly wage has taken a big hit over the past few weeks. i used to have room counts of up to 13 people 15 people or more . and now i’ll be lucky to get 2 or 3 the past few weeks. i thought it was just me or i was doing something wrong .

Girl yes! I logged on last night hoping to make big money but as soon as my first show ended, I dropped down to the middle of nowhere in the ebony section. I was like WTF just happened? I tried logging on and off again but it got worse. Meanwhile, models who have not streamed in months automatically got boosted as soon as they logged on. I had to log out for the night because after that, I was flooded with inquires about meeting up and other dumb stuff. I was damn near in tears. I will try again tonight, hopefully everything works itself out.

There is no real point of having a separate new models tab if they are just gonna be on the front as well-that’s what I am seeing at least. Lots of well established models/contest placers down to page 2/3 if you narrow the criteria.
Logged out of my customer account (where I spend but don’t have favorites) and that front page looked a lot more like how the customer page used to be.
There is noticeable increased studio feel on the front page.
What is pissing me off the most during the dead zones is that my potentials are super high at that point. I look and logged out I am in the top row, but can’t find me there in these traffic deserts when they log in. Like I’m good enough to get guys on the site but not get them once they are in. Rude.
Since paying attention I have had good and bad times with my placement fucked and it seemingly goes more normal if I stick around. Only to get tossed around after I finish a show.

omg, thank you so much lovelies !!
at my end the problems started the previous week with the contest, I basically was online but nowhere to be seen, guys who had me in the favourites list could still see me, every now and then a new soul, but unless I was a favourite or you searched me by name I was tot to be found .. page 1-20 there was no trace of me.
Had a guy tipping for boobs, by mistake he clicked away and took him 15 minutes to find me again. It was a bug or something but I stood no chance in the contest and just by being online hurt my fucking score. I must be a queen of spades because last week I was double fucked.
Now Sunday I was thrilled that the damn contest was over and I get back to my routine but to my surprise, I was just sitting alone in the room while guys were messaging me on socials because they couldn't find me. Tuesday was slightly a bit more normal, than Wednesday I literally screen-recorded 30 minutes of streaming in the wasteland because literally, no one was in my room, but the number of potential guests was fluctuating .. so I was seen somewhere. on my end, I was lower 1st-page sometime mid 2nd page.
People are popping in for just a second, leave come back and then leave again.. they can't see me?.. the page doesn't load.. ? .. god knows I will never have that answer.
I say 80% of the people joining my room are people I have seen before
And obviously, my camscore went to f** hell.
be a camgirl they say, you only need a camera and internet they say...

the only redeeming thing about this upcoming contest is that you will be guaranteed a %25 bonus if you work 10 hours through the 3-5th. Ok, cool I guess. (that is if you can make any kind of decent money, that's a big hit or miss.)
Other than that its just another gimmick to get models online when they know money won't be guaranteed for %99 of us, but the top %1 will be guaranteed their lavish bonuses, per usual.
These contests are so transparent and slimy imo. EVERONE should be getting a $1000 bonus just for putting up with such a unpredictable and noncommunicative website like SM.

I'm grateful they spread the 10 hours over 3 days this time. I lost my bonus of almost $250 last time (2 days) because my body wouldn't comply even though I just needed 1 more hour. (I have Ehler's Danlos=chronic pain/fatigue). So grateful that changed.

I agree. I'm going to aim for those 10 hours and see how it goes. I don't know if I will do the full 25 hours but I will try. I did the full 25 last week and got the bonus but its too soon to have another contest already. It's motivation to stay online, sure, but that's literally it.
