Fuck him! I'm sorry he was an asshole. He's not the kind you want to do shows with anyway. Big is subjective. When I was younger I used to want a big ass but now that I've became more of myself and confident in how I look, I love my flat pancake ass.

Don't let that bitch throw you off your game. Remember where you met him - on a cam site. Only two types of guys come to our rooms: guys who can't get it elsewhere and therefore appreciate your attention and company. & then there are guys who can't get it elsewhere so they want to punish random women for that fact to salve their ego. It doesn't matter how small the insult, guys like they always have the option to leave if they didn't like what they see but he chose to be micro-aggressive and let off steam first. Somebody give him some milk.

You could have saggy tits, the beginnings of a mustache, and corns on your feet for all I care - there are men out there who are not only searching for your "flaws" but will pay top dollar to experience them. At least you get paid to flaunt that $1 ass; he's a bitch for free.

Girl, wave that cuck off and get your money. Someone is online right now feeling deprived of the service that only YOU offer.

I didnt see the initial screenshot/question but I had a similar reaction to several requests in my own free chat... All I have to say is that I got really overwhelmed by all the taboo requests on Streamate last night. It was like all my traffic was being advertised from the same fucked up place. It really weighed on me after a four hour shift of barely getting any reasonable/vanilla requests and getting like 90% taboo/illegal/really nasty requests. I blocked like 20 people last night. That doesn't normally happen in my room at all, let alone to that extent.


I’m not going to get into all the sick taboo stuff I get asked for everyday. My profiles all have NO TABOO written on them multiple times. I’m not responding anymore just blocking.


For sure. Although I hesitate to write "NO _____" [anything] on my profiles, because whenever someone searches for that word, your profile would presumably show up. And we all know 90% of guys don't bother reading the details of your profile to realize it's something you *don't* offer.

This happened on SM when I wrote "No Anal / No Squirting" on my bio for a brief period. I got tons of guys who said they found me because they specifically searched the word "anal" or "squirting." So I took it off, and now I just let guys ask in free chat and I let them know what I do and don't do.

The last thing I want to do is attract more taboo guys the same way, by writing "NO AGE PLAY" or "NO INCEST" or whatever, directly on my profile, and thus having it be a searchable term.

I'm sorry to respond so late, but I really appreciate the sympathy & validation. SW & you ladies save my sanity daily.

Thank you kindly. Camming does suck sometimes, but the sisterhood here makes the job still worth the hassle of fucked up days. Knowing I'm not an island and it happens to others helps me not take it personally.

I m sorry u had to deal with that jack ass girly girl....
I had a few days like that last week where It was effing dead and the only guys on skype that day where all assholes.... ughhhh
I think this week was worst than the last one, I don't even think I ll make even 50 % of my goal ( and even 50 % is peanuts..)
I ve been trying to do 10 hrs ( even 12 hrs x day when I have time during the week) but with how slow and lame it has been these last couple weeks I m gonna go back to 8 hrs daily during the week and keep my 6 hrs on Sat and 4 on Sun ( for the longest time weekends had been bad for me, specially Sun) and now that it s a holiday weekend here in the US ( and most of my customers are from here) I m expecting a low boring weekend LOL
I think 8 hrs Is plenty of time and I still SHOULD make some decent money...
How many hrs do u cam x day? , specially the ones that are moms of very young kids ( mine doesn't walk yet but once he does I m gonna be able to cam a lot less and I ll have to focus on customs, videos and texting, wish me luck w that LOL)

He came to me from CMD which I think it is against their TOS, but I have to check. I have not reported him yet. I had to go offline I was so grossed out. I’m still grossed out. I can never unsee it. I’m scarred for life!

Girl, ditto what the other ladies are saying and I hear you. Some of the stuff that happens to be against TOS are to prevent stuff like this happening as it's just not ok. I hope you're feeling better. The last really upsetting customer I had, had me messed up for a couple days. It'll get better soon. I'm sorry.

Second this, day time cammer, its been AWFUL. Although SM has been bangin for me today, the past two weeks have been horrible HORRIBLE. Im talking $20-30 days on SM, 10 hours logged onto indy and not a single peep on skype....its been a nightmare, but....it will pick up as it always does. Then back down. Then up again. etc

I've had a really rough start: stream interruption, stream pixelated, and some really rude members plus an alarming rate of men who are asking for anal (something I do not offer).

I started the day off strong (great sleep, positive affirmations, and yoga), then all the guys trying to get free "love" has me emotionally exhausted. I've had some really good shows despite it...but the rough start definitely had an impact on my mood. I'm usually all smiles. I thought perhaps it was all a joke the first hr.

It's odd how some days can be full of respectful potential clients then another day men are really testing boundaries. It can be quite the rollercoaster at times.

Sending you ladies good vibes.

I'm almost 7 hrs in and about $5 from high goal. I'll keep the good vibes going. STFO doll, it will happen. Take a break when needed and keep that chin up. You got this!!!

Camming has sucked for me lately. Now that I have a better ISP with a better connection at least as long as my computer can handle the load I could stream all day. What sucked yesterday was how many men seemed to want to meet offline yet couldn't show some online generosity or even make coherent conversation. The guys who tip a token then want a dollar worth of show I can live with. They understand the deal and ... depending on their country and exchange rates... that might work out to the average tip for a dance in 3D in the flesh.

Not sure how this day is going to go but so far it's been filled with guys asking for shit I clearly state I don't do (even in the room topic) and one guy asked about roleplay and I told him I don't do taboo because it isn't allowed and he starts going on about "oh this isn't incest or anything like that. It's something I've done lots of times with cam girls" so I told him to tell me what it is and he said he'd send a message about it.....sigh....Told him I don't check messages until on a break so why not just tell me in free chat since hes invisible and he says "oh, I'll pass then.

WTF?! can only say it in a message? Whatev's....I just hope this isn't the theme for the day Lol

Funny you should use the word shit Lol....just had an exclusive with a guy that was bugging me to poop so I blocked him while in paid. I've never blocked someone while in a paid session but I'm not dealing with that. He can complain and they can take back the whopping 12 bucks I made from him Lol

You smile and hit that block with some ninja skills. Awesome!!

Girl, during my abundance meditation today, his centering thought was to spread goodness. To be loving. I'm trying my best. And it feels good to support fellow camgirls. When I have my bad days, ladies come to my aid and it makes all the bad stuff melt away. Hey, been on 7 hrs and FINALLY got a money/foot slave. I asked the Universe to send me a big fish and fuck...this guy comes along after I booted him from my room too as I thought he was wasting my time. I NEEDED it as my vibration was falling fast. Thanks doll. I appreciate you.

Girl, you're so right. When you break it down that way it really makes me feel less stressed. Some days are so good and I'm on top of the world, then I have a super slow day and think: "it's my hair...fuck" or "it's my nervous twitchy eyebrows, isn't it?" and there's also "it's gotta be the fact that I gained 8 lbs...huh?"

I run the gamut of catastrophizing. It means a lot that you took the time out to break that down. I need to bookmark this page, so next time I'll just read this and be totally fine. XOXO

Lately, I have been getting people who join in on a Private that someone else has initiated and leave 1 star ratings and the worst part about this is that half of the customers who do this have done shows with me before.
In my bio on SM it states that my Privates are first come, first served. I have been having the worst luck when people join in and then get pissy because I don't stop the show and pander to them so they then leave and rate me a 1. I'm always polite when the people who join make a request when I let them know that I am currently with another person but they are welcome to stay and that means that they have to wait or come back. I have had to ask SM to remove so many negative ratings because these jackasses don't seem to understand that they have joined in on Private Show with someone else.

Lately, my Privates have been nothing but trouble in regards to the random peepers who pop in and then leave within several seconds and the people who can't understand that they are in another person's Private Session and will not be catered to until the initial customer has left. I'm tired of going Private and then the customer asking for something that I only offer in Exclusive. I post actively in my chatroom a little Private/Exclusive/Flash menu and it's even stated in my 'bio' on SM. I politely tell them that is something I offer in Exclusive and once again, they leave me a shitty rating. It infuriates me to a strong degree because deep down, I realize that these people are trying to take advantage of me and since they already have me in Private, that I will do whatever regardless because they are paying but that's not the case. They saw the chatroom text (I will PM it to them when it posts within the chatroom to ensure they see it) and can't say that they didn't know.

I am seriously thinking about offering Exclusive's Only as it has been stressing me out badly. I can't stress enough how mad it makes me when these jackasses join in on another person's Private and then expect me to cater to them though. The one's that piss me off the most though, are the one's who sit and talk in chat and when someone takes me in to a Private, they then join and try to make demands and of course, they are the ones who give the negative rating. Like, really? You waited this whole time and THEN decide that you want a Private when someone else takes me? Fuck you. If I am close to my mouse/hands are below the cam and a peeper pops in, I block them immediately as they never turn out to be fruitful ($). I have begun doing this to the people who pop in to my chat but don't talk to me and THEN join in on a Private.

I'm so frustrated lately by this :(

In my bio on SM it states that my Privates are first come, first served. I have been having the worst luck when people join in and then get pissy because I don't stop the show and pander to them so they then leave and rate me a 1.

One ex reg of mine said it appeared on his screen that he is number 1 visitor in private or something along the lines that he s the only one in the show when he entered to watch my already in progress group shows and therefore he was confused.
He told me that more than half a year ago, might have been a glitch, might have been him just saying, who knows, didn t cross my mind to ask for a screenshot back then.

Luckily most of the guys understand we re already busy with someone else and the bad ratings can easily be removed by support. When they are several in the show and the first one who started it has already left, I let the biggest tipper rule the show. Good luck.

I have live streamed for 8 hours and 0 shows. Did get one Skype show for ...5 minutes. I'm going to try another hour but I want to cry

Been there before. On these days, just log off. Go for a walk. Eat a meal. Relax. Re-center. Make some clips. Not everyday is a STELLAR day but we can make the most of it.

Page 4 now, used to be middle of page 3. This priority placement is such a joke. Two hours on and like maybe a dozen guys coming in and three said hello only to jet within seconds. I've thought about becoming a "new model" again but I also hear people who have done that and still have trash. Sigh. I'm trying so hard to stay positive. Its not even like I want to make thousands weekly. Just a few hundred. But cant even make a dollar.
