I'm so sick and tired of being asked if I do race play. Never in my life have I had so many white men ask me if they can pay me to call me the n-word! Hell, I've never been asked that stupid ass question before until I started camming. Then when you call them out on it, they either claim they aren't racist or they tell you that you're not "open minded enough". Are you fucking kidding me!?!? Fuck you!
And if you're a cam model that allows this shit, you're part of the problem! You're encouraging it. And for what??? A few dollars??? That's not how you demand respect people! Whenever I see a profile that lists race play, it pisses me off. These dudes think that just because one girl does it, we all must be doing it.
Fuck racism and Fuck the people that participate in it/encourage it. Why do I cam again!? I don't know anymore.
"race play" lol people add "play" to anything and think it's okay. Call it what it is: being racist for money. ::)

I have a headache and my back is killing me. I'm going to self care this afternoon so I can pull an all nighter tonight. Or at least try to. I seem to crash come 4am but I need to make money and dont have to be anywhere till Friday. I'll just pause my stream as PSO calls come in but I really need to bust it out this week, somehow and just pray someone opens their damn wallet so I dont have to come back here and be like, I streamed 15 hours and made $3 bucks.

I quit! Today sucks! I have blocked sooooo many people. WTF!? Worst day in the past 6 weeks. I'm making nothing. Guys just come in and out, say hi, then leave. Ask me about a show, then leave. Sit there and camp out for 10 mins, then leave! What is going on with today???

This was me on Monday. Or they'd make stupid comments about my tits, then leave instead!
All week though I've had a larger amount of people parking themselves in my room

With 2200 models on SM I've fallen 4 rows on page 1. I'm not getting much of anything. In 2.5 hrs I'm at $8.64 haha.
In 2.5 hrs I've spoke to 2 who were just timewasters, not even a freeloader, and my level 2 regs come in then leave without a hello.
Nothing really. What's going on today? A game? Wednesdays aren't usually this bad. I made way more yesterday which is notoriously bad for me.

MFC has endless Premium member guys with zero tokens parking their broke asses in my chatroom today. I don't get why they're just lurking. There's been at the most 38 lurkers and of course guests and basics, which I mute. I guess that's better than seeing my chatroom full of the usual freeloading begging, annoying personal questions, and guys trying to get dirty chat for free. I'm at $0. Today sucks but I am still hopeful that things will get better in another hour or so.

I dont know if I can do this all nighter thing. My back is screaming. I wish I could figure out how to fight my body to get up earlier. Its like some catch 22. I hate being on SM at night cause I rather be in bed and the pets dont understand why we all cant cuddle and go to sleep. Where as during the day, I can stream from my couch and the pets are used to me working from a computer in the living room due to past work so its just normal and routine. I dont make any more money at night then I do during the day. Its still the same ole hit or miss for me. Ugh I'm rambling cause my back and head hurt and I'm frustrated with the whole placement. I went from halfway down page 1 to halfway down page 2 and I can tell.

I’ve literally had the worst week on cam that I’ve had in over a year. Haven’t even made back my rent and bills yet this month, but this week takes the damn cake for being the slowest I’ve experienced in a long time. Hell I made more on vacation selling clips than I have all this week combined. Thank god for savings I suppose

Camming does not suck more then it ussually does, but I lost over 100$ today on ImLive because of the bonus credits they offer to members. Basically, all the money I did today were at 20% instead of 35%, and to add to it, 41 minutes were with a 1.9/min discount that the site offered from my pocket. Im ussually gratefull for what I do, and I prefer to think that maybe if it was not for bonus credits some guys would not spend at all, but today it was all with a regular, he spends no matter what bonus or no bonus, so this hurts.

Today is just as bad as yesterday was. What is going on? Nothing but time wasters, peepers and cheap losers. I have been sitting on here for over an hour and I've done 4 minutes in pvt! Wtf!?! 2 days in a row that I feel confident about my appearance but I'm not making any money!!!
How is it that Tuesday was better? Tuesdays are always bad but wow. This is miserable. I'm so bored and pissed off, I can't even keep it from showing on my face.
And why, just why, do guys leave in the middle of a conversation??? Why?!?! I'm actually pretending to give a fuck about getting to know you, and you leave!?! Guess I won't be doing that anymore. I'm going to immediately start talking about tipping or shows. Fuck the small talk.

Ugh I hate when they do that , Raven :(
Feels like a good rapport going then they leave, it pisses me off. I almost feel like they get off on it. I used to think that I screwed myself when I got straight to business with them about doing a show, bc they'd leave as soon as I'd mention going excl, however now I don't care bc if they are serious, they'll take you regardless of when u ask.

I've started making a note of "greet and leave" if they leave after initial greetings. That way, the next time they pop in and say hello they get ignored. Fuck them.

Also I'm tired of I'm busy at work, going to work, can't now bb, maybe another time, looks as they're all emotional vampires or dementors and come in my room to suck my good mood out, for that they have a lot of time. They can just tip at least if can't buy a show but nope, timewasters.

I have been leaving notes like crazy lol if I say hi and they leave, note. If I start talking to them and mention a show and they leave, note. If they act like they want a show and then leave after I agree to do said show, note. If they camp out or keep doing ins and outs, note. I find it hilarious how many notes I've added because our customer base is 95% idiots.

I've been blocking these assholes. They never spend. They think that their useless words are currency. "Maybe if I tell her shit that she already knows, I'll get to see titties! Hehehehe." Lmfao. Gtfo!
^^^ Yes, that's the best part of the new SM feature that allows us to take notes AFTER they leave, i do the same, i take notes about their behavior and next time i know who to ignore, kick or block!

Wendy, u may want to consider changing the avatar picture here? I think your pregnant belly should be kept private and not shared on a public forum. Every time i see it i cringe for some reason, knowing that there is a baby exposed in here... i am a mom myself just so u know, pls dont take it the wrong way, its just an advice, ty xx

I like what Sha did with these fuckers awhile back where she basically told them to tip for her to talk & they did :) It's genius for times like this as well as major time saver <3
I've been making sure I'm covered at all times so they don't cum for free staring at my cleavage.

I've considered updating my room topic to say something like tip $1 to get my attention, or say hello or show me your serious about wanting a show. Just so I know they actually have gold to spend. Then they can have my attention.....

I've had a really good week up until tonight and man... No matter what I wear or say, I have nothing but people sitting.
I think they are doing some site work on Streamate for the upcoming contest. I have noticed that every time we have a contest coming, typically one or two days beforehand the site's traffic will be the worst.
To top it off, I am in that mood of 'I don't even want to be here guys! Please let me make you cum so I can leave!' Haha I think they can sense it but I'm trying! Like I said, I got spoiled of being in good shows the past week and I hate it when we have days like this. I just want to be active and have fun. I hate sitting and waiting.
I hope you other ladies are kicking ass though <3

I did notice on my first cam2cam session tonight that the members name is displayed on the bottom of the cam2cam window if you pop out the window from the browser on SMC, so thats definitely something new...
...and we always know when something new is added its like there isn't even tumbleweeds in the room then a contest (aka stress testing system changes week) week is next. Never fails!
MFC has been dead tonight. Barely anyone in over the past hour and a half. Holding out for another 1.5 then hopping onto SM to see how things are there.

This is my new tactic since Jan 1st & I swear: some men like a direct ass bitch. I waste so much less energy this way. I treat em like they're at a restaurant. I know they wanna "eat" so I ask the order right fucking away. Time wasters & freeloaders shut down fast. I say "let me know when you're ready... I am" . Then I turn my music up. Seriously hungry motherfuckers order & I serve.
I'm too fuckin tired to care anymore.

I'm too fuckin tired to care anymore.
I changed to this method the past few years. I hardly ever get the guys that wanna chit-chat, and get to know me anymore (not like how all of my regs from years/years ago are) cause honestly the demographic of clients has changed a lot since mobile became way more of a thing. They want to come in and be rude, and demand to see things or whatever then I just tell them to do a show. If they want to do a show, they will, and if they leave, they never planned on doing one in the first place and theyre just freeloading. They want tits and ass, I want their money, no sense in beating around the bush any longer. Esp when half these fucks can't even come into my freechat and say hi without blurting out what theyre looking for. They treat me like that, I treat them like what they are to me; Money, nothing more.
Occasionally you'll get the nice respectful dude that comes in, strikes up mild convo, is decent, and acts like a human being (in and out of pvt), but thats dying off and becoming more and more rare as the years go on. It is what it is! I'm here to make $$ first and foremost anyway ;)
SM is dead af too. Lots of guys dropping in and then dropping out after 1m. Having trouble staying on tonight when there's so much dead air.

It is not you. You're beautiful. You have to know this. You've been in camming rocks before...you'll be there again. This week is just, well...bad. Last two weeks I was ballin then this week it's been "huh"? This week just isn't normal. Remember we must deal with slow weeks with grace and poise.

Ladies... Sha has it right, Its been a pretty challenging week.
Just remember it IS the middle of January and there is a lot going on in the world right now also, the politics stuff going on a lot of people get invested in that also and it can slow cam down too! Anytime its an election year close to the election cam slows RIGHT DOWN for me.
You're all beautiful. Relax. Breathe, smile, take a break if you need to. Please don't stress if you can help it (I know, easier said that done sometimes, I've BEEN there!), that just makes it worse. Thinking about all you lovely ladies <3 If it wasnt for my regs the past 24hrs on cam I wouldn't have made much either.. sending you all hugs and positive vibes.

I'm SO glad to hear that I'm not the only one struggling rn. I SWEARRR I bought a new eyeliner that made my eyes POP and look gorgeous and yet I sit here in silence staring a tthe screen trying to ignore my raging headache. I had a similar case before it was the day after Trump became President in November 2016...And now again he makes some headlines and its DEAD AF for me!!
ofc it could also be that ppl have to pay taxes rn (it is usually January, isn't it? My parents have problems paying back credit card things rn too so it must be it)
I am not a conspirancy kind of person but every time he does something extreme my cam room is dead. Idk if its a coincidence no more. Are political issues really killing that many boners?
I heard of some camgirls using viewerbots now and I'm willing to try it out for myself as I'm DESPERATE enough. I'm DONE being broke and I don't wanna go on like this. I'm way way way better than a few $ a day on bad days!!! nope

Thanks Sis. Things are moving along nicely. I'm just now 4 weeks in and have learned a lot. I've decided to take NLP courses to improve the sales aspect of the job. I'll be attending MeetUps to network and find prospects. Hoping to land a client willing to pay $1550 a month with a profit margin of 60%. Doing the LOA meditations to ensure it.
I hope you are well. And yes, tea...there must always be time for tea.

Apparently it only works on Chaturbate, Bongacams etc (aka. freechat sites) this is a service over websites who are named the same as their service and they give u many viewers for a certain amount of money (as much as I saw not much money) and then you can get many (fake) viewers that boost your cam onto the top row of your camsite and can provide better customers. As I said apparently only works on freechat sites. I'm not 100% sure which fake viewers bot websites are leggit and which ones aren't but one of my regulars told me he's willing to help me out on that to see if it works out or not. I'll keep ya ladies updated about it xx

Woke up at 730am on a Saturday to get online and work almost 3hrs this morning and have made.. well, nothing. LOL. Not a single cent, cool. I'm glad I got that out of my system and experimented, definitely won't be doing it again. Giving it one more hour and if I still make nothing I'm going to take the rest of the PP off and start over after it ends and not let it get me down.
Clearly not my day!
Edit: ended at $0. Idk what that was but I wanted no more parts of it. Took off to relax instead!
I took a quick break last night to take a catnap and ended up sleeping through the whole gd night. Right now I'm feeling so stupid for oversleeping last night because I'm scrambling to make up for my lost earnings and now MFC is so silent. I have $16 so far. I feel like it's a waste of time and I should dedicate more time to SM, but I don't want to loose my MFC regulars.
