Some of you remember about my experiment of working 1 long day (8+ hours) and taking a day off, rinse and repeat.. Well it's been a week now and I had 3 days off to do what I want.. and cammed 4 days.. Today is not over yet but the results are ... I worked more hours.. got more things done around the house and made more money than I would have working 6 days a week for 5 hours a day ( give or take)... So , so far so good .. I am keeping this schedule.

Yep. No one wants to talk on MFC. They just come into my room and stare at me, even my regulars are doing it! Making minimum wage on SM, again! And I got a call on NF, not only did the site randomly disconnect the call, but they marked it as missed and I was not credited anything for it. I seriously regret not working earlier and going out for drinks with my sister in-law.

Fuck. This. Night.

Ugh, I thought things were turning around...but today is Sunday and it's always been my busiest day and today is just shitty. I'm actually LOSING money as nobody is calling me anymore, or even want to use the Chat feature on NF. People have stopped buying my goodies and PTV's. I know it's partly my fault because I need to be more active but I'm really feeling the summer slump right now. I am 100% taking August and some of July off next year. I'm just looking forward to Sept.

Does anyone know when the Kids go back to school in the US?

Thank you. I knew it was earlier than the UK. Kids don't go back here until the beginning of Sept, but as most of my customer base is in the US it's better for me. Hope things start to pick up soon.

SAME!!! It’s good to know that I’m not the only one because goddamn! Today is usually when I wrap up for the week and any camming I do is just for spending money but I’ve barely reached $150 total so far. Tf is going on?

This was over the course of two days (Sunday and Monday), both shifts at least 6 hours long. I work 4pm-12am. I usually do 200 dollars a day but 150 after TWO days is even less than I made when I worked a vanilla job. So this is terrible. If today doesn’t show signs of things getting better then I will literally live on cam until this shit fixes itself. Bills don’t play.

Not here to bitch about the money necessarily, but here to bitch about the fucking connection issues and how it affects people wanting to take me to private sessions, tip me for shows, and etc.

3 people cancelled pvts with me because of the site connection. I'm. Fucking. fuming.

There should be sound notification settings in the setting area of the cam site you are working with. You can edit it to make the sounds you please. From what I know, the toy doesn't react that strongly to sounds. For me the vibrations barely are felt on my nora no matter how I change the settings. It works the best when someone controls the app, but don't let them do that. After all, you want to make money not have exhausting orgasms so save the app feature for pvt or the homie at home. I literally go by whatever sound tone I hear when using my lush. The tone for a 1 token tip is different than a 250 token tip so I usually base my 'moaning' off of that

Thank fucking god that I decided to have more eggs in my basket and start doing indie shows, because those are what paying my bills at the moment. Jeez, I have made $50 in Streamate in 2 days of working 5h/day, and Adultwork is sucking hard too. Hoping that this will end with August. Hang in there, ladies!

I work on SM and I just got a lush yesterday. Ive read in other threads how to set it up but still dont understand if this toy vibes also with music turned on or reacts to any sound. I will try it out today and see how it goes and manage the show. I posted today on the streamate thread asking something similar, so lets wait for an answer.

So while money has been better for me, I still have found something to complain about.

Phrendly customer support is trash! I've been emailing them back and forth for almost a week now, and the person that I've been communicating with is playing games. Their app has been extremely glitchy for weeks and for the second time in 2 weeks, I am owed money that I was not credited for after 2 video chats. I have sent numerous emails, I keep getting the same replies from the same guy and I have gotten nowhere! I'm extremely pissed. I have been making them money and they seem to be getting off on not fully paying me.

oh god i hear this. there were quite a few times last week where regulars and big spenders would come into my room, and as if on cue, the tab on my browser would crash (this is a new and infuriating obstacle!), or the quality would drop so hard that everyone would just instantly leave. i've been on for a couple of hours tonight, and i've had to d/c and reconnect at least a dozen times, so now i'm just giving up, after having made $3 (!) ... i'm wondering whether i should just start with the OBS broadcaster? shit can't be fucking worse than the SM broadcaster, which is just sooooo shitty at the moment.

i'm so tired of worrying about money oh my god. i miss the good old days of this job.

Last week and this week have been horrendous. Hadn't been feeling the summer slowdown too badly until now. Really need things to pick up. Can't keep blowing through my savings like this. It's not even like my traffic is bad. I've got people in my room. They're just for the most part freeloaders. If I hear "show pussy" one more time in free chat, I'm probably going to lose it.

Every summer is a struggle for me. I always have to switch up the times that I cam and play up my hustle a bit. This summer has been pretty brutal for me. Should pick up a bit in September...at least it usually does.
