I have a question about potential bookings and rejecting bookings. I have quite a few showing on my list as rejected now and wondered if this would cause me any problems. If I'm not available for webcam and phone chat bookings I go into direct IM - just recently when I've been on direct IM I get web cam bookings or phone chat booking requests - usually with about five minutes notice and logistically I'm not free to take them (hence being on direct IM instead). Typical. When I'm logged onto webcam and can do them immediately they don't arrive.

you can post to twitter via Profile and Availability as well. There's a box to tick to say you are available and twitter it too. I do that regularly while I'm logged on.

YES YES And YES...Every night when I log out of JCI, I receive a message (via AW) from some guy who wants a show. (and logging back in doesn't make the show happen, so I now consider these guys to be TWs)

I know this has been asked before but I can't remember on what page (there's soooo many pages on here now..lol) but does anyone do paid chat only? I've found in the past that being in free chat helps me but I'm so burned out right now. Whether I'm on AW or SM I just look in a bad mood when sitting there. I need a break from all the constant freeloaders and feeling like I'm wasting my time.

For years I've done paid only.

Sylvy it's not just you, I get few bookings either. Then again my price is high and 10 minutes minimum. I used to get lots but they dropped off around the same time as gallery sales did (all around the time the VAT fiasco hit) x

I dont make shit on gallery, absolutely nothing. And booked shows is very slow, my minimum is 10 mins also, but i guess men now prefer the directcam so they can leave whenever they want.

abt paid chat, i do it all the time, its not a huge amt of money but i make ok.

is aw down for the last 15 mins???

My gallery is down too, but I get a lot of men saying that they love it. They are all simply using their free preview to view it. It makes me think about either putting many more pics in and increasing the prices so that free preview can't be used, or removing it entirely.

Booked webcam has always been slower than DirectCam but my shows decreased when I changed to 10 minutes minimum. Some guys prefer skype because it's better quality video...that might have changed though with things AW have done more recently at their end. Also, guys will prefer skype when they know they actually want longer than the time they book...I find that guys who also visit escorts, like to sit and chat after the cam show!

Gallery and movie sales have been very slow since they added VAT last October. Having said that, recently my movie sales have been picking up but it may be the time of year. My gallery sales are always slow because I have at 11 credits for a week to avoid guys having access to my pics for free using their freeview allowance...pics can be easily downloaded.

My movie sales might be going up because I'm not using my face in my main pics at the moment. Since I changed my profile pics, I'm getting guys coming into free preview asking me about my wet look leggings, which means more of them are looking at my free gallery and that must be because they have to look further now to see my face and once guys are looking at my movies too...hence the increase in sales recently.

To be honest in 4 weeks I had had two bookings, just lately I've been trying to promote myself more and I've had several bookings but none of them have been when I've been able to do them. Some have come in with five minutes notice and others when I'm on direct chat and not webcam. But like the others say, it might be that had I been available they would be no shows. I'm upping my hours over the next week to be on webcam more so I'll soon find out

also happened that i accepted the guy and then it was cancelled! not sure whats going on, anyway yesterday i didnt work with the wig coz it was giving me head aches and its just so annoying to do stuff aroud the house with that thing....i thought i would lose all my guys, but then they entered my paid chat even with the short hair pic up, but then they all stayed for just secs and then left. I wasnt sure it was a glitch or just guys wanting to see me and i got so pissed that i signed off and called the night.

Thanks - had a whole evening of guys telling me MY internet connection is crap (WHEN they stopped going in and out - these are NOT peepers). Most of them of them are NOT stopping to tell me the problem, or messaging me.

After saying to one guy that the AW servers must be playing up, he said "nah, it's your broadband, I'm running 1Gbps here" ... Yep. It's all the fault of the dirty lady on screen. Of course.

In most cases it is their connection as theyre probably on a tablet or phone and idk why but AW player just cannot handle it well atm no matter how much they tell us it can. However having the absolute best Internet you can possibly get, and giving the majority of your bandwith capacity to JCI will not fail to serve all of us well. They have been long time in the shadow of other sites when it comes to technical and upload requirements, but they are beginning to move in that direction. Now you need at least 1.5mbps upload to efficiently stream to mobile devices. We gotta do all we can to improve things our end and ensure we're offering the best quality we can x

SylvySinclair

Susie, sorry but im dumb when it comes to internet shit, if i have an upload of 38 to 46, what does that mean? does it mean im close to 1,5mbps? coz i have fiber connection of 100mb, the best for residences that i can get. of course, some days my connection sucks, but then i just restart my modem and it comes up again. Im also close to getting a new laptop, so then i will be all set.

sexysusie
05-14-2016, 06:55 PM
It means you're miles over 1.5mbps lol. The download has no bearing. So your connection is great. You could still make improvements by upgrading your computer to an i7 or i5 dual or quad core with gaming spec graphics, and by having your computer connected via the cable to the ether net rather than just on WiFi. Adding more and better quality lights will also improve the feed and reduce any issues of pixelation your end.

I'm pretty sure most of us who do this professionally are already at or near the top of our tech game, but it can't hurt to always try to keep improving.

Yep! I'm on over 100Mbps down and 6Mbps up, it certainly ain't me. Had less problems on my 5up/0.3down. Although I also had less traffic. Ho hum!

Same here. Until 2 years ago I only had 0.38 upload on an old asdlady copper wire rural connection. My traffic was hopping lol. But there were less other models then and AW wasn't constantly messing around with the player. I make more money now but it's because I charge far more and stay on longer. I find it hugely insulting when AW fob us off that they're having no problems or any issues are on our end. Having said that, if you read the SM thread they are having the same issues.

The old sites are struggling to keep up with the Walmart camsites like chaturbate and there are more models on all sites than ever before. Increase or start your indie game ladies, widen your collection of sites, don't rely on AW x

Im so pissed, coz i could be doing a lot of other things rather than camming, i spend a lot of time on make up, dressing, etc etc to the go online, have 4 guys in less than 1h and not beig able to make even 1 credit with all together to even pay for my bidding. This is massive annoying. thnx susy, i will increase the lights as for the I5 or I7, im not sure as its mega hultra expensive in brasil a laptop like that, im more probably getting an acer same as mine, and like, paying for it in 4 payments....lol

I'm doing a mix of things and just camming on AW on the days that pay best for me...I'm wary of joining another camsite because i have a teenage child with friends who naturally look at porn, and AW has a lower profile. They're off to college in September though which means I can work past 2.30pm at last! But that also may be the time for me to give up on AW and get a regular job that will pay me a lot a more...working from home is nice though.

I've had people telling me they are on a tablet and having problems - not all the time - sometimes if you refresh your profile you can see the tablet icon gets greyed out. Often switching off and on again can help, don't know why.

Yesterday was supposed to be a good day for me but aw was acting up, so there is no point to set u all up, go in front of cam and not make shit! thank god i made good money on my site, and then again with regulars which is what is making my salary, so to speak. I think that if aw wants to cope with so many girls, they need to improve their system, the way it is now its not working and girls will start to leave to find sites that support this number of girls online. We are competing with lots lots of girls, different niches, and u already have to pay to be visible on the site, so at least give us the tools to work and try to make money. Ok, im bitching today and i know it wont solve anything...

I get you, though I've burned my own bridges in that respect since being on mfc. Nite flirt is also low profile and Skyprivate or the indie sites, if you did ever want to branch out x

There are no good UK sites. The ones that exist are governed by the phone licensing regulations and rates are pennies per minute. We can use all the same sites as US gals, but try to choose ones that offer payoneer global bank transfer as payment is then far simpler and cheaper x

@Horny my link is automatically tweeted when I log in to JCI simply by having the tweet box ticked in direct cam settings. Email AW through the help centre. They'll probably fob you off with an auto response but just send your message again.

I bought a super cute jogging with tennis shoes for him for his bday, he looks like a prince. lol ha! sorry girls, i just got carried away by such happiness!!!! well, anyway, i took the day off and was so good, went shopping, eating in a great restaurant, and now planning his bday party which will be next week.
