I would like to know what is going on during these contests? I am only getting like one or 2 shows a fucking day .. that's it!.. I wish I could afford to not work at all during these contests. At least I got a few more shows on my other cam sites.. I still haven't even made it to the minimum payout for the contest yet and normally I can do that on Sunday! .. fml


I went lurking before going to get my bed ready and that computer warmed up in there, to peek in on a couple I love to watch from time to time as they are usually popping and always high in the ranks. Anyways, they are like hellloooooooo, we have been on for four hours and nobody is even saying hi to us. Is the screen black, can you hear us, like wtf guys. There is a ton of you in here and nothing.

Sigh. Ugh. I'm still going to hold on to some hope though! Maybe.

If you're talking about SM, then yes...it's really slow. I've been hovering between page 1 and 2 of main and it's DEAD AF. This is to be expected. It's a very slow week in the books and SM knows this that's why they have this contest.

Right now it's a game of STFO. If you keep your vibration up, it only takes ONE good custie to make your fuckin day. And in a shift of 8 hrs: it's possible. BUT you gotta be on for that chance.

So stay your course. Push those tits up. Pout those fuckin lips or put lip gloss on and make them shine. Then wait for the GOLDEN ticket. It's there. Hang tight.

I swear the idiots are out in droves. Just had a guy complaining cause his wifi didnt work for Skype and how he should be allowed to call my phone only line and have me pull up Skype so he can get back those minutes he lost to see me. Dude, get a better phone service. Not my problem.

Just reemed out a guy on SM to and then played stupid when I called him a freeloader. Dude you know exactly what that is and means. Dont even. You want to butter me up, then tell me why you enjoy girls on here, yada yada and ask stupid questions, we can go exclusive.

I just want to say that I admire you. For your will power. I kept an eye on the forum today and although it sucked, you stayed on. Good for you! I should have you as an example, I used to cam long hours, as long as it was needed but now I quit fast. Maybe too fast.

No, girl...it's been HARD as FUCK. Legit! I've been so patient only as I got almost 9 hrs sleep. And I've been waiting.

Dude, I literally got saved. This guy just came through and BAM a 23 min long private. But I had to choke on a dildo the whole time LOL. SHIT hardest $50+ bucks, but fuck...I got it.

I'm STFO but it's sooooo hard. It's taking ALL my patience, but I gotta make up these hours. I'm die hard today cause I slept well. BET: if I slept shitty...NO WAY.

Right, RIGHT! My sentiments exactly. This is my first summer, but yesterday had to have been THE slowest and the HARDEST to work. I'm no stranger to slow days or sales sucking, but FUCK...it took tits of steel to stream 10.5 hrs.

I am asking the Universe for some good vibes for next week. And I hope it does pick up for everyone. We deserve a break. This job is physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing for most.

My placement sucks cause it is a new account on SM. Last night it was so dead that I logged off after two hours. I think will start working 2 1/2 hours, take a break, and work another 2 1/2 hours. I am wondering if I can mentally handle doing it that way if it is really slow? This is better than doing nothing at all and I need to do something to get my placement up. Uhggg wish me luck.

This is my 9th summer camming, and it's always the same. Slow. Tons of rude guys, and freeloaders. Lots of screen names that only pop in during summer, but yet never spend.(I personally think they are bots). Clients that have had 1 short show 5,6,7 years ago only resurface during the summer....And still don't buy shows.>:(
Lucky are the girls who posted that their summers are never slower, and it's all in our heads.::)

Thank You, my darling.:-*
That's also why I don't cam that much in the summers anymore. ( Why I started the savings chart thread):D
My first 7 summers, I cammed 7 days a week, 9-10 hours per day. So, I know from which I speak.
Crazy, I know. But, rent and bills were 5x what they are now, so I just plowed through.
*Probably the reason why I'm so burnt out too.

To speak to the summer slow down.. from 2003 to 2009 I never experienced.. Summer was the best time of the year for me but SM was NOT my main site. It was not until 2009 when I joined SM that I never had a good summer again..lol... So maybe it just depends what your main site is.

What I was saying is SM is my main site since 2009 and that's when I experienced Summer Slowdown for the first time since I had started.. the first 6 yrs I didn't.. different customer base I guess... Hence the reason possibly why some camgirls never heard of a slow down before...lol... My summers used to be so good I looked forward to them all year long.. That's when I made double the money... but not anymore.. I haven't seen another cam site produce the income SM does for myself and I am not much of a token kinda camgirl since I started in the stone age.

I really can't do these contests anymore.. I am literally so depressed from losing 2/3 of income I can't eat today.. From now on I am only going to work on my normally busiest days and that's it.. and work extra hours on NON contest days.. I haven't been this depressed in a long time , probably since my last boyfriend left..lol

I went on SM today. Let's just say that I should have listened to my gut and not log in there.

I feel like sm is suggesting me to only those with low spending limit. It's not only this week that I am talking about but a couple months since I am told that I am expensive. And no, I am not expensive, I charge 4 99 and I wish to charge more but they won't even pay 4 99 so I am stuck there with no shows.

They are turning me into a negative Nancy, I swear I never complained this much but seriously, it is depressing to put time and effort into hair, make up, clean and nice decorated room, invest in clothes, toys, research fetishes all the time, blah blah, just to have them tell you that you ask for too much.

Never hit goal last night cause I was angry. I have no idea what was going on with me but men pissed me off so bad that I'm sure I even sabotaged a couple chances at getting a couple shows cause I was just a plain out bitch. I'm feeling nippy today to but I know I have to just brush it off. So soon I will go make the bed and turn that computer on and get rolling. Coffee first though.

Same here! totally sabotaged myself but I think I actually made more money doing so cuz after the last few days.. OMG you have no idea.. one day I only made $16 on there for 5 hours .. last nite bitch bitch bitch.. and made over $100 refused to even take my clothes off because I am on strike...lol... One more day I have no idea how I will behave today.. depends on them .


I don't understand why my other cam sites are doing so bad also.. during this SM contest. its so weird.

these god damn contests don't make sense for me.. this happens all the time.. I have made $284.00 in eligible earnings so I get a $28 bonus so far.. all the other cam sites slow as molasses... so I have a total of $459 for the week.. when normally I can make over $1000 a week .. so I lost over $500 to make some lousy fucking $28 bonus.. I am NOT running myself into the ground anymore on these dumb ass contests.
