I had a great Monday but this Wednesday SUCKS. I was on for an hour and half (I know, I didn't stick it out) and my traffic was awful, and even when tons of people were in my room I couldn't get them to cough up money, even for a gold show. Got one exclusive when I first came on and then nothing. Grand total of $18. I was so grumpy and had blocked like three people, I just signed off. Sitting in my comfy pants feeling like a loser.

Oh also, my boyfriend referred to my camming as "selling my body for money" earlier this week (as a "joke" HAR DE HAR), so I'm feeling kinda pissy about that. I think it's like calling a woman a bitch, you know? I might say bitch and I can choose for that to be empowering, but you don't get to call me a bitch when it's typically a word used as a weapon by people like you. (Dudes, basically.) AGHGSLJDFN. I hate life right now.

Sorry everyone is having such a crap week. :(

They probably go cry to their mom cause they live with her rent free and try to jerk off in her basement for free, I can picture them now:

The "selling your body" expression (in reference to sex work) is so fucked up. My mum used to say it all the time. Nobody sells their body unless you're selling a kidney or something. You're selling your time and attention and services.

What a passive aggressive comment. I would have lashed out at a comment like that. Like, okay, Dont date me then if you think I'm "selling my body." Nobody told you to. Once in a blue moon hubby will comment something stupid and I have to lash out really nasty. "It pays our bills and allows me to stay at home and live stress free, right?"

Its been ok for me, its just been a little funky.

Monday started off blah but then it picked up for me.
Tuesday was uber slow but I stayed the fuck on.
Wednesday was ultra crap. I logged on and off 3x trying to stick it out, the 3rd time paid off because I finally made some money.
Today I dunna yet.

It just seems like lately its taking alot longer to make any money. It seems like it doesn't start to pick until 2 hours into a shift and even then there's spurts of traffic (at least for me).

I'm selling the image of me cumming, not selling myself as fucking livestock! Its a stupid assumption made by stupid people who are generally terrified of sex to begin with. I've met people who actually thought their husbands never watched porn, snap at the word sex, make oral out to be incredibly disgusting and act like they are the shit behind closed doors. (Bitch, you are probably looser than jello..)

About sums up how my week went. LOL. And I've been noticing lately that I won't really make diddly in the first hour online but the next 2 after that more than make up for an hour of being quiet, its been a long dragging week but in the end should be greatly profitable! I keep getting the black screen curse this week, its making me angry >.<

I don't know what it is with me - it's not really that I'm receiving LESS shows than before, it's just that they don't last. I used to do 20-30-40 minute shows regularly, now most of them clock out at like 3 minutes. I know a few of them are one minute wonder regulars and that doesn't bother me but when you're just getting started with what looks like a proper session? Argh. I don't feel like anything about my hustle has changed - if anything, I'm better now, more experienced and so on - so it's just a mystery to me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Today on cam has been a jam-packed hour of lurkers, freeloaders, demanding assholes with entitlement issues, people who refuse to quit their attempts at free dirty talk, constant demands for gold shows that they know I never do, and at least three dudes an hour bitching me out for being too expensive, usually because they can't fucking read and think $14.99/minute for premium is my LOW show cost but mostly because they think no woman is worth paying anything when Vagina Hosts exist ONLY for the pleasure of men.

I don't let them change my hustle, but HOT DAYUM, an hour of that and $6.22 to show for it does NOT fucking fly with this girl. I'm in a SOUR fucking mood and one HELL of a banning spree.

Living with people who you have to work around their schedules, ill be glad to have my own place and get back to some normalcy with work and my life. So difficult trying to keep a consistent schedule when you have people always around and cant work like youd like to. Especially when you need to work to save to get what you want.. so frustrating at times.

YES. I sat in guest chat for an hour and a half, banned more than I do in like a week cumulatively, and made like $2 before logging off a second ago. I have not felt this tangibly angry about anything in a minute. I am also going to smoke a bowl and try again, normally try to save that for after cam but I can't even with this bullshit anymore today. Not sober at least. CHEERS to ya, let's hope round 2 is better because I almost can't fathom anything being worse than that was just now.

SM is so dead today its ridiculous. Maybe my placement sucks, I dont know. I never understood any of that anyway. But for real I've been on for 2 hours and I've made $25. Most guys come in and pop right back out, or don't talk at all. And then the SM glitchfest is also against me today it seems, with guys screens freezing, my video not showing up, or them trying to talk to me and I'm not seeing it. I just want to log off but I took the day off yesterday and I have a poor hearse that has to go into the shop at the end of January and at this rate he will never get there. Plus christmas.. UGH

EXACTLY. He apologized today and said he won't say anything like that again. Luckily he's the one who encouraged me to go into camming so he really doesn't have a problem with it, it was just a thoughtless, hurtful remark. Now that he knows it's not funny, I think we'll be good. I'll be watching though.

Is this on Streamate? If yes, you would see the bad rating by now if they left it. There's no chargeback on Streamate. What you see under earning for that private is yours.

someone took me pvt and was typing to me + responding until about 10 mins in. their cam feed froze and i just kept going on with the show since i figured they'd fix it. i finally let them know and no response. i asked them a few times if they were still there and if they knew their cam froze and still nothing. i keep performing. plenty of guys stop typing after a bit and i thought his hand were just busy.

after 20 minutes i finally ended the show and now i'm scared of a bad review and/or chargeback. did they leave their computer running in pvt? i have no clue and i'm worried i just worked for free.

When you're engaged in a pvt with someone else for 10+ mins already, and some idiot loser comes in and says:
'Show asshole bb' within the first 10 seconds, and stays 1min and rates you a 1 cause you tell him your pvt rules are 'first come first serve.' Fuck you douchebag, I'll just get it removed, but thanks for trying to be a class A fucktard.

I doubt it was your placement. Thursday just seemed to suck. I was on from 10:40am-2:40pm. I didn't make any money until 11:17am in which it came in, in spurts. Before I logged off for my break I had to be sitting in freechat for around 48 minutes (no tips or pvts within that time). I came back on at 4:15pm and stayed on until 7:15pm. I couldn't make and didn't make any money after 5:25pm. Traffic went completely dead and no one wanted to spend...had a few regs come in I said hi(I typed and spoke through my mic) they didn't say anything and then they left. I started to wonder if something was wrong with my feed so I checked it, it was fine. Again Thursday just seemed to suck. I'm hoping today is better.

I told a guy on Skype I couldn't talk to him right now. He waits for like 20 minutes and responds with, "you look like dogs." After telling him that I knew I was beautiful and he could fuck off, he tells me I would be beautiful if I quit camming. He told me that all of us look like dogs. All I could think of was how poor he must be that he can't even afford a fake girlfriend for 10 minutes and has to resort to insulting us all. ::) Still, I was busy and it was fucking annoying.

So that ImLive feature (while in private chat mode) where a window pops up when a guy has messaged you...*sigh* Some guy on there kept typing in his screen name for "Sky." At first I thought he was trying to say the word 'Skype', but now that I think about it maybe he was referring to SkyPrivate (I'm not too familiar with SkyPrivate). He kept telling me his screen name and saying "300 euros." I told him no, he could see me on video chat right there in ImLive private chat (I'm NOT risking my ImLive account discussing some other site by name). But he just kept fucking repeating himself and wasting my time, so I blocked him. I cannot stand dudes trying to talk to me to death, and then repeating the same damn thing as if that's gonna make me change my mind.

Ugh, I had to email customer support again regarding the 1 star ratings (busy week) It pisses me off that there are logs that take you prv, sitting wanking away for free. They asked for usernames and am not sure how to obtain them given they leave so fast making it difficult to catch their asses. Am tempted to crack the whip for now on in my Prv/Excl! >:(

So far I am going to be copying every username, snapshot, information in case they ditch after 30sec or leave bad feedback..just cause they can and SM makes that available for assholes. -Trigger happy- Does SM like seeing models struggle?

Setting a countdown, planning a routine so they don't attempt to wiggle around looking for freebies like stank ugly rats. (I understand there will be some that slip by, but I hope to tighten my grip) I was nice, lost my patience with some kid that would not shut the fuck up hammering the same question over and over. Do I stay nice or let my inner bitch out? I would like it to be a nice, fun chatroom, but if they are going to leave me 1 star and SM doesn't help, whats the point in being sweet? I'm taking my gunge back to MFC only..it doesn't work well with the 30 free seconds unless it is gold show based. AHHRG!! :bomb:

Ugh, I had to email customer support again regarding the 1 star ratings (busy week) It pisses me off that there are logs that take you prv, sitting wanking away for free. They asked for usernames and am not sure how to obtain them given they leave so fast making it difficult to catch their asses. Am tempted to crack the whip for now on in my Prv/Excl! >:(

If they have rated you then they are in your earnings and you can click on their names and see past privates, ratings etc.

Did my first two camming shifts this weekend, one on Thursday and one tonight, both from about 12:30am to 3:30 am and I made less than $5! I was looking good both nights, good lighting, my camera quality is fairly good, had audio. Think maybe I need to switch up the time of day or possibly try another site if SM keeps sucking.
