Pretty thrilled I made $100 for a custom clip earlier because I sure as hell am not going to make much on Streamate tonight. No one is talking. No one.

I couldn't go more than the first hour. Dealt with annoying customers in person all day, not worth it to deal with them online all night and I know once I'm in dead-eyed bitch mode there's no point to being on cam.
You know what I thought of, ladies. Next weekend is 4th of July... do you think it's likely all the richies are taking their summer vacations around this time? Eh, looking for answers, but then when I try to check my feed on my phone it says I'm in a private chat constantly so SM's probably glitching to shit on top of it all anyway.

I JUST started on SM this week and my first couple days were great and now *crickets* Also anytime I change my rate to over 2.99 it stops all privates...yet when it's at 2.99 its "shove a dildo in u forever" privates and i can only do it for like 20 minutes and then im sore so it's pointless. UUUGH MFC and naked are dead too wtf. Ive made like 4 bucks in the past 3 nights. That is not ok and I have rent to pay.

Raise it to a buck over what price you think is too high. Then stick with it for two weeks. I did that and people started shouting at the naysayers saying that they've obviously never had a private with me.
$2.99 is where the assholes with no money go. Go higher and I PROMISE that within 2 weeks you'll start seeing a huge improvement on clientele.

Jesus, today is HORRIBLE for a Sunday so far. I'm sooooo excited on Sundays because they're my best days by far, and I'm always confident I'll get back to back privates all day and make fat stacks. Not today.
It's not only dead, but everyone is being so fucking annoying and rude. Ugh.

Cumming sucks right now because out of the bluest blue Imdead froze my accout when I was rocking my stockings there, because when I got my friends and romance account there (I was bored, worked there for 2-3 days made almost 300 bucks (funny I know) and to the hall of fame of F&R and was never back) I put accidently the wrong year of birth and they hit me with that yesterday. I had "amazing" time with trying to find my birth certificate, e-mailing and calling Imlive non-stop. Now I am back and all fine. But they killed my mood yesterday...
Funny thing I know are least 2 girls with 2 accounts in the same category (and this is violation of the rules), they don't care. I don't attack other hosts ever..Me stating wrong year of birth (I have put 5 years older than I am) oh shit!
I love Imlive CS (not all of them, but most are sweethearts) but this shit!
I tried to work yesterday on SM, but could not stay on thinking about the possibility of losing money on imdead, got one pvt right after signing in and logged off and went to sleep. Imlive owns me my wasted brain cells...

Yeah. Same here.
On Chaturbate. I haven't had more than 10 viewers in at a time. They all came in and immediately left. Some stayed a little longer.
I would have logged off sooner, but one of them said "I gotta figure out how to blow 16,865 tokens. But Im gonna mute you because I have to finish Netflix."
I stayed on waiting for this idiot to be ready. He was never ready. An hour of waiting and checking who's in my room, I notice his name is not there. Ugh.
I want to try MyFreeCams but Ive heard some not so great things about it.

Camming sucks, when after averaging $100 plus per hour for a few days straight, my earnings tanked last night.
I didn't feel so bad, when right after I logged off, I went to see if anyone else had traffic, and out of 4000 people in someone's room on CB, only 1 person gave tokens. Ugh!!
I really need to make my weekly goals before the dreaded upcoming 4th of July holiday.:(

-Members who come in your room, without saying a hello and start demanding things.
-Members who say : "Oh u must show me first so I know what I pay for".
-Members who are not willing to pay for a chat in private with the mention : "I don't pay for chat. Only for show".
-Members who want to "get to know you better before private" trying to waste your time with stupid chats about their boring broke ass lives.
-Idiots who say (when I answer to them that I am single): "Oh why? Are men blind? You must have lots of men around you! You must have a boyfriend!"
. It's annoying that in their mind , a woman must fuck every man that likes her just because she is beautiful so automatically, a slut.
I boot those idiots anyway, but this still pisses me off.
Now from real life:
-People who think they have the ultimate life theories and their oppinions/ actions are the only ones that must be considered (unsolicited oppinions by the way): " Oh, you did X university? Why didn't you do Y unviersity? I did that one and is a good one!". "Oh you are a camgirl? Wow! you must be ashamed of your parents! I feel mercy for them!" (no matter the "worried" person is having a shitty corporate job and goes with bus at work and I just bought myself a brand new Mazda 6 with my embarrasing job), "Wow u have been with your bf for 6 years and are not married yet? We did after 1st year! U cannot stay like that so much!", "Wow you have so many years toghyeter and don't have a baby yet? When do you have one? U must to have one because the time passes and u will be 30 and will be too late then!" (WTF??); When we go at a wedding : "We know you are next!! when you plan to do this?"; "Oh isn't your boyfriend mad that u are masturbating on webcam and cheat him?"(WTF again), "Wow what will you do after you are having a baby? Will you masturbate on cam and then touch your baby? That's gross!" (Wtf again...like they don't masturbate or have sex anymore, after they have children).
After I quit telling people what is my job: " Oh why you don't tell what your job is? is that a BIG secret?" (Yes it is! in fact what is your problem about what I work?!?). "Wow your bf must be very rich for buying you such a nice car and byuing you all theese clothes and make up,etc! You are lucky! What do u do to him?? (being ironic)".Oh and those questions about how much u earn . Again, what is other people problem?!? Why people is interested in other people financials right after they met them?!? (i'm not talking about this forum. Here we post earnings for motivation ahhaa..i talk about real life).
-"Oh! how come u woke up at 2PM in the middle of the week?? I woke up at 6:30 AM and meanwhile I've been at WORK!" (Like I care, u fucking bitch! When you were waking your slut ass up to go at your part time (my ass) job, I was going to sleep after 10 hours of work!"
Those things really piss me off. Especially the fact I don't ask their oppinions. Do you have this type of species around you? Or I am the only unlucky one? My list of friends really got very very tight. I do my best to remove theese useless and toxic people from my life because all they do is to ask you 53827498242 of questions and then suck ass about your life.

Camming sucks right now for me because not only am I making half of what I usually bring in but 3 guys that used to go pvt with me quite often ( but stopped at least a year ago) have been coming into my room for the past couple weeks, just to chitchat. Asking how I've been and what I've been up to....etc.....with no intention of going pvt.
I made my opinion of this very clear to them and now they don't come in.
I don't care if old regulars stop seeing me and move on to other ladies but don't come in my room to kill time before or after you see them.

I've been online for 35 minutes and so far I've had 1) the guy who lurks for 5 minutes (clearly masturbating) and doesn't say a word until he leaves (usually, 'have a good day!') like it makes up for being a freeloader, 2) the guy who publicly announced he was 'getting hard first' (because yay minute men!), 3) Mr. Surprise!Incest dropping into my free chat to say he loved college girls and that his 'daughter did webcam shows in college,' and 4) my first (and so far only) private of the day requiring a ban because he demanded a golden shower.
Oi vey.
Follow up: some dude asked if I had a diaper so I could piss myself and show him how it leaked.

I hate idiots that come into my chat room and tell me to get a "real" job when I complain about not making money. I want to know what the fuck a real job is? Flipping burgers? Last I knew, any thing that earns you money is a job. It's always men who have something to say about camming, IRL or in chat. Why the fuck do men say this shit? Are they pissed off because they feel entitled to womens bodies and they have to pay for it? Or is it because they are mad because women can work from the comfort of their own homes and not have to work the 9 to 5 grind?
They pissed because we have the option to make money THIS WAY, they just cant, they have to work their ass off & make money so yeah, is jealousy believe me, they need us when they horny but get pissy when they realize they spent the money on us or cant afford us so they start with these lines. Ha! LOL

And I just lost my best regular because I didn't give him my soul. This was even after I called him my most legendary tipper, general and captain in front of over 500 guys today. The fuck should I have done, donate my liver and kidneys? Am I supposed to ignore all the other guys who are also tipping? WTF. I am a camgirl. That is it, I will never be more than a camgirl, I can't be your wife, or girlfriend or anything more than a cam girl. I have a husband, furbabies, friends and family here where I live, did you think I would leave it all behind and run away with you? If you want a real woman go on a dating site. Have the courage to get a divorce if you no longer want to be with your wife. Don't look to me to fulfill needs that I just can't give to you. OMFG.

Yup...sounds like MyFreeCams. You get a fantastic tipping regular who eventually starts getting too needy, or in my case...too jealous of other guys who flirt with you. My best regular actually got offended when other guys in the room called me "sexy." Lol. Really, dude? REALLY???

Summer is in full swing and it's crazy how, yes it will be hot, but as soon as I sit down to cam it automatically gets like 20 degrees hotter. I guess it's because squeezing into tight little spandex outfits and sitting next to a lamp isn't exactly cooling. Using a fan really helps but I hate the noise so much during camming that I'd rather just sweat it out.

Sooo...yeah, this week is totally fucked for me....plus I was only able to cam a little yesterday, and after working at my vanilla job and coming home to that mess I just didn't have the energy to get on cam tonight so my check is gonna suck balls this week......

i had about 3 other guys in pvt session today, some asshole comes into the room and sends me a c2c request. I told him im not accepting it cause other dudes are in the room and he must come in exclusive. He leaves and gives me a 1 star rating. I have it on my profile and in my topic that c2c is for EXCLUSIVE ONLY. This guy is so butthurt. Hes been popping in and out of my room all night, im not able to block him cause hes logging out too fast. I've contacted sm support on his ass to remove the rating.

I listen to him going on and on about it for several minutes, taking up ALL of my chat space, so I can't read what anyone else is typing.
When I suggest that we could go to an exclusive session so I can make him feel better, he re[lies with.."No, not today, I'm just here visiting You." I suggest then he can at least tip... He doesn't NO!! Your not going to come into my room, talk about death,:rip: then run...I banned his ass! He caught me on a bad day. It was too slow for me to put up with that shit! >:(

Ugh, I hate when they start complaining about their lives or are just total downers! I always just tell them that I'm sorry to hear that they're going through a hard time but this isn't the place to be depressing. It's a sex site and I'm here to cheer them up. They usually change their tune or leave. Either way I'm happy I no longer have to hear them bitch.

And compliments don't make everything alright. Compliments don't pay my bills, do these guys really think we would be on cam if we had self esteem issues?

The most terrifying thing to a weak man (and from the studies I've read, any man, actually) is an economically empowered woman. Dick is cheap and Dildos aren't very expensive either, so we don't need men for sex (and also, for those of us that monetize our sexuality, we might get everything we need, sexually, from work--this is a big maybe, but it's easy for men to think it's definite), and if we can pay our own bills, we don't need them for that, either. We have our own friends, so we've got support in our lives. Also, and I've heard this from other girls, camming has only improved my self-esteem and made me feel like the sexiest bitch in town, so I don't need a man to just stroke my ego and tell me I'm pretty in exchange for sex (which, sadly, we've let far too many of them get away with for too long). Broke dudes are realizing they bring nothing to the table. When they know we can live our whole lives without them (not that we don't like them or don't want them, just that their necessity is diminishing), it makes them question their entire value and worth as human beings.
Just like they've been doing to us for thousands and thousands of years.
