No nudity in freechat. So you could twerk or blow kisses for tips etc. I've not cammed there for a while, but they didn't use to be too keen on tipping lol.

Well done getting any kind of tip on AW, as Vlodina says, the guys just don't like tipping lol. I'm sure you already checked but just make sure the tip is showing either in your earnings in the JCI box or on your credit statement. I mean I'm sure AW guys would never try playing you with a fake tip, but it's always best to check before giving anything away ;). Also I pretty certain you cannot send pics via the AW message system. If you really want to do that though you can ask him to send you his persoanl email addy, then you can send it that way. Of course, like most sites we do not have the ability to message them first, only to reply.
And no no no nudity in freechat ever! Not worth the risk of getting banned.

Same as it's been since Xmas...DEAD. Well, loads of freeloaders, but no paying custies. Apart from someone coming in to ask for audio and then left when I switched audio on. This happens quite often. My voice must be shit!

I've done my targets this week but my targets are pretty low really, just trying to cover my wage I just lost my quitting my vanilla job.
I've met some nice guys the last few days but so many coming in free then just saying 'anal?' Or something silly. So I play with them. Then hope another guy falls for my amazing sense of humour.
Also I've had a few people leave shows at odd times and another few complain about connection issues, I know its not at my end. Anyone else had this?

Firstly you are not ugly! I know when you aren't getting shows it can fuck with your self esteem, but you need to get it into your head it's not you! Second you need to stop worrying what others are doing. How do you know how much the other girls making? She told you? but have you seen her credit statement?
If you are experiencing a quiet spell it's time to look at your profile, make changes, add content etc etc. For what it's worth I think an awful lot of ladies are going through a quiet patch, not just on AW either, but it's all part of the gig, we have busy periods, we have quiet periods and then we have fucking awesome periods, focus on the good times and the bad won't seem so bad. If you want to pm me a link to your profile I'll take a look and see if there's anything obvious I can suggest. In the meantime, stay focused and stay logged in! lol
I'm beginning to feel rather ugly if I'm honest. There's a girl I know who's hitting the big time. Making well over 200 credits a day yet she's got a crap webcam and crap laptop. No private gallery either. Some days I'm making around 20 credits and that's camming all day long. Anyone got any tips? Maybe someone could inbox me? I'm a BBW so don't know if that's the problem or what. Really had enough and I'm feeling like giving up :(

Yep, I totally know how it can get me down if I'm having a slow patch: 'Is it me? What am I doing wrong? I bet everyone else is making money.'. No point in going down that road!! I DO have a look online to see how many girls in my section are in paid session: sometimes it's busy, sometimes I can see everyone else is sitting and waiting just like me!
Like Missymissdemeanour said this is a good time to do updates. If you have clip content upload something everyday, I find doing short clips on specialist stuff I like doing on cam helps pull in new clients. Upload a picture everyday - that can be as simple as your outfit for the day.
Blog and feature it on the homepage - only costs .5 of a credit.
Also If I'm having stamina and motivation issues (like forever) I try to keep my shifts short and just go back on after having a break. I also keep a notebook of what I've earned and how many hours I was on for, plus whether the credits came from regs or new custies. Logging it like that helps me see patterns and to BELIEVE THE DROUGHT WILL BREAK!!
*edit* sorry did something weird with my quoting so haven't picked up the original post from Kinkybitch

I think everyone's run away with their money....I've not even made enough since Xmas to feed my cat. This is despite doing freeview sessions 5 days a week AND offering pre-booked Skype sessions.
I'm hoping payday weekend will be somewhat fruitful, because if it's not......? I can't continue like this and will have to make some decisions :(
An update on this...I have made more in the last 2 days than I have in the last 2 months. I do admit to some minor tweaks, but can't be sure if these were the reason. More likely that guys have now recovered from Xmas and have some available spend. I will try to remember later this year to make money and save save save during Nov/Dec in prep for a very lean time during Jan/Feb (which I have never experienced before, not even the Summer months have ever been this bad!).
totally sighing with relief here.

Yep, I have been feeling the same. I'm supersized-bbw here in UK (in USA I wouldn't qualify for that label) and the other British SSBBW cammers have been gaining feedback from "my" custies while I've been going seriously and painfully skint (poor).
200 creds a day? Wow. I dream of that.

If you go to the credits withdrawal page, at the bottom you'll find all of the payment options. The dates will be down there on each tab, depending on which method you use. Xx

CatBBW may I ask, do you offer free chat? Cause I can't think why else it'd be so slow. I'm on the large side too so I can't honestly think why it'd be slow, unless you're not offering the free chat before pvt. Maybe change your profile picture. I know when I change mine, it's crazy busy for a few days then goes back to normal again. Try it :D xx

My profile hits slow right down when I'm in paid only, and I do far better in free preview...but sometimes I have just got to do paid only, and now is one of those times! Pay day was only a week ago, have the spent it all already?! I even brewed a pot of coffee and I never do that during the day.
MessyChick
03-06-2015, 06:00 AM
Sometimes I do better dropping 3 credits on positioning then going off free.... I think the trick is working out your best days and times.
I don't escort and I get fed up after a few hours of typing'i only play on cam'
Also so many guys going look at my dick on cam, then legging it when you say 'sure babe drop me a tip and I'll have a look at yours'
Classy_Katy
03-06-2015, 06:11 AM
Yes, there is something to be said for the "now you see me, now you don't" approach!
A lot of girls go into paid only at lunch time because there are so many freeloaders just looking while at work. I use audio in free as it's easier than typing, plus I sit at my own laptop while I cam from my partner's and I can't reach that keyboard as easily...annoying when you get them in free with no sound but they are usually the luncthime freeloaders on their phone.
I'm grateful for the "open my cam bb" guys to go fast when I tell them I only do it in private...it's the ones who want to "chat" for 5 minutes I find a drain on my energy.
My best days are Monday and Friday, and I usually only cam those days. My hours are fixed to around 10.30am - 2.30pm, so I'm not on for long.

Has anyone ever managed to get a flasher to tip to show you his dick?

I've never managed to get anyone on AW to tip, tbh, except when they've enjoyed the session and tipped on their own accord.

I don't really log into AW anymore unless a reg once a show but I'm trying to change that. I have a reg that drops $130+ a show, each show and pops into my SM chat once he wants to play. Since I don't cam there that often he found me on SM and thinks my prices there are too much for him so when it comes in my room that's my cue to split cam with AW. Other than that I don't waste my time anymore because I usually sit there for hours with only 2-4 shows day in paid chat. Whenever I do free chat I get 100 compliments and rarely any shows. Fuck compliments, pay me.

I have been tipped a total of 5 times since I started camming 5 years ago haha. Two tips were from the same guy in 1 private session. He tipped me 20 quid to go buy a dvd he was telling me about (I didn't buy it). Another was from a woman who was paying for a chat - she was very pleasant! The others I can't remember exactly, but they were from pleasant people. Those are the types I like. Haha

^Nope.They wont tip.The tips on aw are rare.I used to ask in free chat for twirls but not anymore since I got idiots yelling "rip off " .I dont ask for a tip anymore and I will ignore their requests or just kick-ban .In my experience,those guys who want you to see their cam in free chat never go private.I kick them out in a second.I got more tips from private than from free chat.

i used to have a wicked guy he used to like being forced too tip so it would be 10 creds to turn ur cam on anouther 10 too touch your cock and anouther 10 too be allowed to come and so on till he left he was a wicked custie ... i alos have one who likes to spin a coin heads he gets cam to the floor where he sees my shoes for 2 mins ... tails he has too tip me twice in the 2 min period ... but i love all the weird and wonderful custies .... hence why i love being a dom ..... im hoping tonite is crazy buzy on cams .... x

I know when I change mine, it's crazy busy for a few days then goes back to normal again. Try it :D xx
I never used to but have been doing so while its quiet, so its even more like pulling teeth when you're sat there an hour and get just 3 vistors who leave after a few seconds and 1 who wants to show you his cock and then leaves when you ask him to go to privare for that.
I changed my profile pics, added pics to my private gallery, added new movie clips, changed text, raised my prices, lowered my prices, tried new outfits and looks while on cam, tried different hours (morning, noon, evening, night), paid for positioning, paid for featured...the only thing I didn't change was my persona, which I was seriously considering before the income started to flow again.
So no, I can't think why it was so slow/fucking awful nor why the cash has suddenly started to re-flow, but I thank the camming gods for making the men want to pay for me again! :D

How new you are shows by your feedback, I don't know how men regard it. I lowered my group rates a while back and it worked for month but then stopped so I put them back up again.
Messy, how did you find Adultwork?

I can't get anyone to leave feedback so I'll be new for a long time haha! I'm doing about 20 4min+ a day 5 days a week and only have 3 feedback!
I cammed briefly last year, almost everyone left feedback, I got to 50+ in my first week lol
Originally I heard of it because I was looking to hire a stripogram for an employer lol! Last year I stopped camming when I discovered my bf had been using cam girls behind my back, which was nice

Missymissdemeanour
03-09-2015, 12:20 PM
I find if I leave them feedback they are more likely to return the favour. Also a lot of guys log of once they have finished so when they log on next, could be a couple of weeks later, they leave fb then. I don't worry too much though, again guys are just as unlikely to check your fb as they do read your profile . I know it looks like I have loads but take a look at how long its taken me to get there. I also feel that having lots of fb puts some guys of, they prefer the newbies rather than the experienced, probably because they are looking to scam.
