Hi Raven I totally agree. Its like going against what you don't do. These customers is still raping us even if we say no.
Where's the respect is at from the guys. Yes too many girls doing it and doing it because of money. I don't do anything for money or say do what I dont like and do as they say. They can eat a d***. Seriously.

I totally agree with you pussyhoe. No matter what time of the day I get on. I be having hope and still the same thing. Or say this semi regulars with number by their name that saw your show come in the room and leave. I hate when they do that I totally send them a message and they say rates high. I said look they been the same rates like they always been at some point or when you notice it, Ughh when you went elsewhere.

Hi anonamiss, thats so true. I had on 4 sites at once all down the tubes. True I seen some girl with higher rates way higher than mines and they be back to back. Then I get retards coming in my room saying , your expensive. I say to them all these toys vibes fast internet good cam C920 Logitech and sound offer phone, what do you expect. I dont do anything for my rates like deepthroat huge toys , not big huge, no fisting etc. These guys thinks they should get all services especially if a perfomer is higher rates. UGHH they are annoying. Like dogs with fleas!!!

Hi NitaBaby,
Yes exactly having children is a big problem when you start a job.
Who gonna take care of them.
Then your job reg job want you to work more.
OOPS
Yes that's where camming comes in handy , but then again no stability at all,medical benefits.. It got to mend out somehow and somewhere. I don't have a reg job now but I understand where your coming from.
For me the camming money increase for me In Oct til May then it spirals down. Really some during income tax time.
IT;s LIKE MAKE IT OR BREAK IT.

Trolls were out in full force tonight and I let them get to me. It was already difficult for me to be in a good mood since it was so dead. So many regs coming in and just chatting and not tipping a single penny. Then the trolls showed up and I had to log off because I was about to cry. This job gets really hard sometimes.

Guys, do you think cam is just in a general overall decline lately?
I keep hearing this everywhere from different cam girls. And I Think the only ones I see doing really well anymore are the ones who have been at this for yeeears and have amassed a following back in the golden age of cam.
Now I don't want to sound defeatist, but I am actually starting to wonder if there is any hope at all for a newbie like me who has only been doing this for 6 months. I quit MFC and focus on SM, but even that has been going down the drain.

sorry for my bad english ;) piece ladies
You make some good points but I'd prefer to correct you and say that on the contrary, imho today's society makes people think they're unimportant and vulnerable to too much. What we need is more kindness and safety in this world.

There will always be people who say camming is going in decline or eve n think that camming wont survive... i havent been camming in "the golden age". The golden age for me, describes a camworld in where there was no oversaturation and people talk about bringing in cash easily and without effort just sitting in a room
It has never been effortless when I started. When I started the usa was upside down and in major crisis money wise. People where writing sm would not survive. As a newbie I was scared all day everyday my job would be gone any moment.
People said the same thing the year after and years after, but guess what, sm is still here.
Mu income had ups and downs in the beginning when I was figuring out a hustle my niche and get my emotions in check after the good and bad. Learning to deal with daily ups and down, rejections and massive big chunks of money all rapidly changable days and hours was one of the hardest parts together with learning to not give a fuck about nasty comments and haters and backstabbing studios and models
But my income has been rising. When you grow your income grows. When I started listening to seminars o youtube (jim rohn, zig ziglar, les brown etc) and got myself into reading books about salesskills my income got even higher.
I doubled in income, and after time and major hustle changes doubled that new income again. I have a steady hourly now that instead of going down is still climbing and can triple or even tenfold or more when I am having a realy good salesday. There is no luck or bad luck, for me there is no summer slump. I earn all year around the samen bottom hourly, and that bottom hourly is rising with every growth and succesfull change that i implement. I did have to grow as a model and as a person to grow my income, but when you do it is worth it. When I do have a bad day or a bad hour I question myself, not the football, not the website, not the customers not the economy. And in most cases, I am the problem. I need to make a slight turn and watch my microexpressions, motivate myself, meditate and get in a good mindset, up my salesskill and try out new tactics in order to change my bad day in a good day.
This took years, it does take years to master something. It does take time to gather a following. It does take time to be a topearner. Why? Because it is worth it and a lot of people are fighting for the same spot, bec it is def worth it to fight for and they know this too.
In this time you can still earn loads of money with camming. When top earner and combining dif sites to maximise sales you can become dirty rich (girls that can rake in 50+ k a month, and they are not using mfc which has a very small window to get successful bec its such a large site and people prefer a certain "look and age" on there)
If you are determined enough, are willing to put in massive effort and keep hustling all minute instead of just showing up and sitting down, you can earn massive money. One of the hardest parts is to keep motivated and keep working it and raise your own standards and everyday a tatste to become more, earn more, do more.
A lot of people want more, but do less bec they get tired. They become adjusted to failure, they become resemtment to customers and the job in general, they see only the bad instead of focussing on the good and the sales. They loose the spirit they had the first years when they got inyo camming, that almost naive uplifted spiri t and they sort of halfway give up..but keep on going at the same time which results in poorer earnings.
Know that when you give up or stop hustlingt, someone else will keep on pushing and are ready to switch places with you. there are a Lot o f performers that are also eager. So keep on pushing and realise your own dream...
and if you want a diverse answer to your question do not ever ask a answer in this thread, maybe i nstead dont get bothered at all reading negative posts and create your own path by simply putting in work and grow.
There is no shortcut, there is no easy way, there is no magic formula an d there is no succes without failure and dissapointment
And when you are topearner it gets even harder bec competition gets harder, so know that even when you get there, its not easy, never will be.
Question is, how hard are you willing to push for it? Bec I know anyone who keeps doing their ultimate best and keeps growing in every aspects of their being, ... will make it to the top
And can we just root for limitless earning potential.
I dont know what is more exciting than to realise that you can earn Anything, no limit at all, no max. 50440

Come back after 15 yrs or so.. haha.. I can barely stand them but I still make good money.. pretty high ranked on most cam sites.. haha they even know it to.. maybe that's why they spend money on me... Sorry , I don't know where you are coming from but look around, majority of the men out there behave very badly towards women and even worse to a sex worker.. why should we truly put up with it? are you sure they respect you? How do you know? do you have real convos with them? after the real convo they will usually make some sexist, mysoginistic, chauvinist comment to show you they don't give a flying hoot about you.. And all you are is jack off material to them.. it's very hurtful that men all around deem you as nothing but that.. We know what the job entails.. but being dehumanized is shocking every day for the next 2 decades or more.. Men behave this way everywhere.. television, the grocery store, facebook, the town square.. it's not about this job. It's about their lack of respect in general.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
And just like any job...... we have a right to complain and vent about the things that we don't like. Just like ANY vanilla job there's going to be something that we get fed up with and don't like and want to complain about because venting feels good. And in this case it's the lack of respect that a great deal of these men have. People are so quick to jump down our goddamn throat for expressing how we don't like to be treated poorly...and act like they don't have a single sad little man trying to dehumanize them and wish disgusting things upon them or wish them dead. Yes it's part of the job, we KNOW this. Yet JUST LIKE ANY VANILLA JOB, we put up with these things anyway because this is apart of the job and the good times outweigh the bad. Doesn't mean that (ahem again, just like any vanilla job) we don't wish some aspects of it were better. Like if I worked in an office and my boss was an asshole, or I didn't think that our schedules or the workload were fair, or if others got special treatment, I would wish these things were better. And of course I would complain to my coworkers because it is a form of stress relief. It's life and we're human. It's not wrong, it's normal. Don't come into a place specifically for complaining and get mad that....people....complain...
And nowhere has anyone said ALL MEN. People just want to find anything to attack someone for. Anything. The reality of camming is there are a lot of men that are absolutely evil and disgusting. And no one here is saying that there aren't women that are the same way because we're not idiots, we know women can be like this too. But we talk about the men because we deal with the men. Nowhere has anyone said we hate every single man in existence. We're expressing our disgust with the ones that come in our rooms and start talking about absolutely vile things, wish death upon us, belittle and berate us, the ones that think they're entitled for us to bust our legs wide open and show them our pussy because they tipped us a dollar. Obviously we have our AWESOME guys that we love very much that come into our room. But that's either for the Camming Rocks Right Now thread or for ourselves :) Just like the customer service world, you don't usually hear from people about the positive things, it's usually the negative things. That's life. So maybe let people express their anger.

This was very helpful. Thank you! I feel like this goes for anything in life. We're all gonna fail multiple times at some point but we just gotta keep it pushing and work hard :) I've been reading on SW that it's a good idea to read books about sales and self discipline and things like that like you mentioned about your sales skills and I've gotten a few that people have recommended on here. I've seen a lot of your posts and you're very inspirational to keep it pushing, especially during the "bad times" some of us are having!

i dont mind attacks. i stand behind my words.
But wait how did I attack you personally? You choose to share your personal life here... I just said my opinion.
You offended me actually, telling me men see me as piece of meat to jerk off and they don't take me seriously.
But I'm not using it as argument.
I would have much more to say to you... but I will not, because I see you are seeking opportunity to play role of victim. Role I despise the most.
WOW!.. I am trying to be respectful towards you but you just keep attacking me.. bitter, sad and now a victim? I am not going to engage you sorry.
I have been a full time camgirl for almost 20 yrs and one thing I do not do is attack my fellow cam girls. And I didn't share my personal life. I painted a picture for you what some girls are feeling like..when they are unhappy about men.
You know what? Most cam girls do not make it as long as I have and still have success.. So you have a great day ok? But this conversation is over.

I don't hear other camgirls talk about it, but it's definetly worth mentioning.
Overexposure. That's accurate, that's real and any girl can experience it. I remember talking once with one of the producers from SM. That was a long time ago, when they used to be nice and talking/supportive.
He was telling me about a pornstar (he didn't name her) that went from hero to zero, basically. People got bored of her. She was using the same outfits, same angles, being online all the time and asking for tips. So she lost her high spot and her income dropped. People never missed her, she was always reachable, always on for anything. She didn't take breaks, she never ignored no one. She was there! So I remember his words: "You need to make them miss you from time to time and then show up with something new."
Performers expect camming to be smooth. You log in and you make that cash. No, it's not. You need to work your ass and constantly come out with new things (hair, makeup, show ideas, attitude, angles, background etc etc).
This is a business, you need to keep up with trends.
Look at Graveyard Girl on YouTube (Bunny). She went downhill. Why? There is nothing new. She never evolved into something better. Now she struggles getting views for the amount of fan base she has. Why? Overexposure, lack of evolution, lack of new interesting content.
So rebrand yourself constantly. I've been in this industry since early 2014. I used to barely make $500 per week. Now I make that in a day or even more. So there is money to be made. You just need to find your tactics.

Compared to where it used to be yes. I started camming in 2005 and you can see the differences from even 5 years ago. I think tube sites are part of the problem, they offer free porn. Usually stolen porn, but still free sadly. You also have way more guys into phone sites and texting sites. You also have clip stores now that people enjoy spending money at. So even if cam is on the decline, there are other options to make money at

Ive been in this industry since 2000 and the main problem is the customer base, not the performers. The customer base overall has changed in a negative way. Very cheap, very needy and very entitled. There are still great guys and spenders but not like it once was. While its good to change up your looks and hustle on occasion, that still wont be enough for the cheap and freeloader crowd. Plus cam is on the decline overall and has been for years

The adult industry in itself is changing as you have mentioned in your previous post with so many different outlets. I am currently taking a hiatus and focusing on doing phones at the moment. Camming/clips/etc sucks for me because I have poor lighting/equipment/etc so until I up my game it’s all going to suck. I think branching out is a must in this industry.

No one can deny tube sites play a part in the cheap customer base we all have to deal with now. The industry really needs to fight and get these sites shut down and stop trying to work with them.

Ladies stop fighting back and forth, just agree to disagree. I will say that this is a job that you can NOT hate men in, no way. That will be clear in your behavior if you cant stand men or this job. Men pay the bills, not all of them are assholes or annoying. Just like we dont want to be labeled whores, men shouldnt be labeled as freeloaders either

Back to the topic of this thread: today was a rough one. I missed almost a full week due to being sick and came back to a dead one, took me 9 hours today to hit $100. Yikes. Lets hope the week picks up, I have a ton of shit to attend to, financially.

Unless you are a very tough domme who likes spanking and humiliating and inventing new punishments for your custies all the time- j/k! ;)
You have to respect them even more, then.

Yea , today was not all that great I thought, I was excited to work today because last Monday I made almost $400 so I was hoping it would be good, not to mention everyone has already got their rent together to decide if they have leftover money to play.. so yea I made less than half that today.. I was considering not working today and working on Wednesday instead.. shoulda stuck with that plan.

Most of my shows are domme , cuckolding and humiliation.. I don't think I would be nearly as effective without my experiences... I wouldn't say I was super hardcore but can be.. depends on my mood. I cannot stay in character like that ALL day like some ladies can.. Like to switch it up a bit.. Like last nite I had a long show where I was a naughty school girl and that guy managed to get me to spank myself .. I whipped out my riding crop.. It was a good show imo and I was more of the submissive.. Which I would never normally do .. he just caught me off guard and I just went with it.

You did better than I, today. SM was slow as fuck, laggy, just issues galore....not to mention lack of traffic. Skype sites were dead. Not how my Mondays usually are.....its usually easy to bank on a Monnday, but not this one. Really makes me dread the rest of the week.....

Almost all these years I have cammed .. Monday was always my favorite day to cam.. I envisioned them being back from their weekend with the kids and wife and now have alone time at work to play haha... I wonder if that's why Monday is good?..lol

I mostly do fetishes and I am a Dom, never a sub. I make them twerk, dance, write on themselves, degrade them, cry, etc. As a dom you dont have to respect your subs, they respect and pay you for your time. It's not hard for me to come up with new ideas all the time. In this career choice we choose what we do and I choose to make men pay to worship and kneel to me.

Monday is generally my best day too...I get the impression they've tried all weekend to get laid but failed, so it's back to the camsites!

Ok , you are quite on edge.. YOu don't mind telling me how to think or feel but I should not do that with you.. I just can't win with you.. You must be going through something that has you on edge.. I get it... Wish you the best.. good luck..
It's really clear to me what that person was doing...I wouldn't engage anymore.

In my experience there have always been Aholes in all of my jobs but at least with camming I can block them wish I could do that IRL lmao, and then there's the saying don't bite the hand that feeds you
I worked in retail management for 7 years before this, now I don’t think I could ever go back to a job that forces you to take the abuse of customers yelling at you or threatening you. I need a block button for real life! Lol

I was exhausted but went on and stuck it out for almost an hour of an empty room until I had the cheapos trolling me on Streamate ffs, which never happens. Fuck last night!

Being creative is why I love this job SO much.
By respect I just mean that it's good to not hate them but have fairly positive feelings about our clients instead; if I truly loathed or was repulsed most of the people I worked with/for, it would wear on me psychologically at any rate, so I prefer playfully humiliating, hurting and mindfucking them- I mean they actually *enjoy* most of the pain we make them experience!

I don't hear other camgirls talk about it, but it's definetly worth mentioning.
Overexposure. That's accurate, that's real and any girl can experience it. I remember talking once with one of the producers from SM. That was a long time ago, when they used to be nice and talking/supportive.
He was telling me about a pornstar (he didn't name her) that went from hero to zero, basically. People got bored of her. She was using the same outfits, same angles, being online all the time and asking for tips. So she lost her high spot and her income dropped. People never missed her, she was always reachable, always on for anything. She didn't take breaks, she never ignored no one. She was there! So I remember his words: "You need to make them miss you from time to time and then show up with something new."
Performers expect camming to be smooth. You log in and you make that cash. No, it's not. You need to work your ass and constantly come out with new things (hair, makeup, show ideas, attitude, angles, background etc etc).
This is a business, you need to keep up with trends.
Look at Graveyard Girl on YouTube (Bunny). She went downhill. Why? There is nothing new. She never evolved into something better. Now she struggles getting views for the amount of fan base she has. Why? Overexposure, lack of evolution, lack of new interesting content.
So rebrand yourself constantly. I've been in this industry since early 2014. I used to barely make $500 per week. Now I make that in a day or even more. So there is money to be made. You just need to find your tactics.
That's so funny that you bring up Graveyard Girl. I watched the vid where the other Youtuber came by her house to help her. Did you see the vid? She didn't want anyone to know that she lived in a lavish mansion.

When a guy just typed to me on Niteflirt chat on this very slow day:
"What do you have on? I've found some clips of you online. You are my type! So gorgeous."
SERIOUSLY????? HOW ARE THESE FUCKING GUYS SO DUMB????

Yesterday was kind of shitty, but today? Man, today was a whole other level of shit lol. SM was so glitchy STILL, my skype was dead. Not even gonna get close to goal....that being said, Im glad im not the only one experiencing this slow shit and, to be honest, Tuesday and Wednesday are almost always bad for me. Reserving my energy and late shifts for Thurs-Mon, cause EVERY Tues and Wed is a dumpster fire for me anyway.
