Streamate randomly alternates between amazing and horrible... sometimes I will log on and make $100/hr easily, other times I'll log on to a completely empty room and struggle for hours to make just a few bucks. It's always been like this since I started camming over a decade ago. There is seemingly no rhyme or reason to it.

I have to agree with you on this as well, and contest weeks just always are much worse in my experience. But I myself been on SM for as long too, in the beginning it was better before gold, but it is what it is and also I think camming as more popular than it was 10 years ago too.

Did it when I started camming a lifetime ago, it worked, as I was mostly just sitting and typing and smiling. When it came to doing shows, it wasn't so good anymore, members started asking for a bed set, and because I kept trying to do shows on my office chair, I once fell off with it and broke...the chair, fortunately (I actually fell off a chair twice, if I remember correctly, while laying back too much playing with myself). I then switched to a bed but I never liked it as I could never sit comfortably between shows. Now I am only doing non nude domination, so a chair is perfect again :) I closed the loop lol.

I’ve been seeing an influx of models claiming they are leaving the site due to recent and not so recent issues. Has streamate really been that bad for the bulk of you guys?

Nope, it hasn't been THAT bad. Just ups and downs, you gotta be VERY patient, but it's not like...doomsday.

Agree with this. For me, it’s like people don’t talk as much anymore so it feels much more slow. But the majority of the time I make a similar amount of money. People have said camming is dying the entire time I’ve cammed, which is for eight years now. I’d say the industry is getting bigger if anything. It’s just become more difficult as there are more camgirls than ever. Streamate has always had ups and downs.

This week has been really slow this week . I worked Saturday night, Monday night & Friday night. The traffic goes from normal for me to absolutely nothing. Streamate needs to get it together, We are loosing money big time, my hourly this week went down by more than half this week .

There truly is no rhyme or reason to the way SM works- The past 2 months, my earnings have been 1/4-1/2 of what they used to consistently be. I even lowered my Exclusive rate and still was not getting shows or tips. Super depressing! Then, somehow the stars aligned this contest week and I was actually back to "my normal" earnings and contest placing, although still with lower rates in place. I busted my ass this week and it paid off, thank Goddess. The August contest I did not even place in the Top 1200, at all. I thought my account was broken or shadow banned, lol. ... Very strange shit, I cannot explain it...Now, to muster up the strength to get back on tonight for my regular work schedule. Good luck to all of us!

I might be late to notice this but pornhublive changed to massivecams? I know quite a big portion of my traffic has been from phublive so I’m wondering rid that has had an affect on customers/traffic

Also, they used to show a few profiles at the top and bottom of the page on phub but I don’t see that at all anymore. I still see the “live cams” button but not the random profiles that would pop up. Hmm

And now in the 6 hours I have worked since the end of the contest I have made half of what I made in 27 hours last week. Probably should have worked more but it’s hard shaking off the resentment towards the hot and cold. I also didn’t love the swaths of high paying regs who rolled in and legit seemed like they hadn’t seen me in at least a week. But still I am very grateful to make up some of the lost ground and to be appreciated for my work.

I do. I only have one bed in our house and refuse to use my personal space for work, just seems yuck. I have a chair that virtually reclines to flat and has extendable footrest so no problems. I've seen loads of girls using just chairs.

Well last night I did a "just watching the TV with hubby show" Very little makeup, just my nightie on, low lighting and just sat watching the TV. Had my best day EVER on SM. Hubby is allowed to work as well so we did B/J shows if asked for a fee and in exclusive.
I'm in the UK so would have been about 4-5pm EST

Does anyone know this guy?
He claims to have a $1000 limit that he uses every night, but when I told him that I don't believe him, he offered to email me a screenshot.

I told him that I don't open them, and to just take me in for a show.
Then I got the Brb, and he never returned.::)
My question also is, do spending limits go up that high?
Because even if they do, I'm concerned with being accused of fraud by SM.

Smurfette

Given how expensive SM can be and how fast the $$ adds up, I'd say $1000 limit is possible for sure. It's the fact he's bragging about it that makes him sus

He came into my room yesterday - saying SM wouldn't up his spending limit. Red flag for me. So I didn't engage with him.

yes limits can definitely go above 1k but my understanding is the customer has to jump through extra hoops with support to get it, like sending in financial documents, identification proof, etc. I've had a few regs with high limits who told me they've done this, but they've been spending on the site for years, accumulated lots of credit/points and thus have established some trust with SM. A new guy probably wouldn't have access to such a high limit, and anyone bragging about spending large amounts of money is likely lying (and probably broke lol)

Thank You everyone who answered my question.
I'm not sure if he meant that his limit was $1000 every day, or what. Guess it doesn't matter.
I've had lots of guys spend $500/$600, etc. And they never bragged about it. It just happened.

Hi! I was on streamate until the California ab5 law but now it looks like I can get back on. The approval process requires an ID card, and all I have is my passport. I messaged support but I just got a generic answer that I have to try again. Does anyone know a rep I can contact? I’m pretty sure a streamate rep used to be in this forum but maybe I’m remembering wrong

Yes, I agree.
My other sites are busy, so I just know to stay away from SM during contests.
They never work for me.

silly question most likely, but I just bought the VerySoft camsplitter and I opened it with my Logitech cam, and now I am trying to select it as a cam source in smconnect and it just won't work. The cam area stays black. I restarted, deleted cookies etc. When I am using just my cam, it does work. Does anyone know why it's doing that? Can smconnect be used with VerySoft?

I've been in a room or two, and it seems like some of the models have their "button responses" on auto post? I don't see or hear them click to post them, they just seem like they appear automatically.

Is this possible, or am I trippin'? lol?

I know they're there, I mean that it seems like the responses are posting automatically without clicking each one manually, you know?

Could there be someone else there doing it, out of shot, boyfriend perhaps? I once saw someone in a contest who was doing a sleep show and said they had a helper there (out of shot presumably) so they could send videos out straight away, even though it was a sleep show.

Yes! I have noticed that, too! I wondered if they have a MOD working in their chat because their hands are no where near the computer. Interesting. I thought I was trippin', too, or was missing out on a feature that I was unaware of. Must have a MOD in there, I'm assuming.

Idk about SM, but on MFC, a lot of the "studio" models don't speak English well and their studio owner types for them and spams members' DMs as they stream. That would make me anxious personally, because non-models aren't always careful about following the rules or setting boundaries correctly... would be interesting if SM had bots like CB tho.

I WISH SM had bots like CB - I miss that feature form CB the most. I am awful about remembering to post those notices.....

Some of them are using scripts. They set it up using the extensions in Chrome. Too much of a pain in the ass for me to mess with though lol.

Is anyone in the UK with Masspay please? I'm trying to withdraw and the only UK option is bank wire with a $28 fee, usually it's only $4.10. WTF is going on? Also the main page is totally different and I had to find the right page by typing members.masspay.io. Also it hasn't saved my usual bank details and I'm a bit concerned, I'd rather not put them in again in case something isn't right. Can anyone put my mind at rest please, are you getting the same?

TIA!

I have exactly the same, just wrote to masspay and asking why is no option to cash in pounds or euro. Thank you for posting, I got uneasy too. I have a cosmo account in case something is not right with them and Streamate can recall the money from Masspay if we cannot cash out for whatever reason and pay us back again next week under different payment method if we need to.

Thank you for posting too, I know it's not just me! Can you post if or when they reply? It seems odd. But good that SM can recall the money if we need it although I don't have an alternative, yet. Usually the option is SEPA isn't it? I can't even remember but it's not wire and it's not $28. :(

I suspect it's a site problem, because their contact us page isn't working either.

Okay, think there's something dodgy going on - they've removed the option to DM them on twitter.
