Streamate has been AWFUL the past couple of weeks! I'm struggling just to make my payout! These fucks aren't getting any more free attention from me though, I tell them from the first "hello" they can read my profile and let me know if they want a show. No free chattyness...I'm done.

I hear you. I streamed 2-3:30am and did well. Took a nap then streamed 7-9am just nothing. And now I'm on from 12:30-3:30pm nothing...not even any potentials. It's literally teetering from 0 to 1???
SM being a bitch for a while. If this whole week is like this making goal is gonna take 35-40 hrs. UUGGGHHH!

Ive returns on second row of first page and no people in my room, 30 potentials. just is Streamate kidding me? How it can be that no one coming in my room for so long and not staying in more than for 1 minute? Where is any traffic? Why Im with my huge tits and pretty face sitting all alone? Im going crazy of that reality, too many questions to think in empty room.

I already see what kind of shift this is gonna be.
I just got my first private but my goal is ridiculously low today @just 90 bucks and I already feel like it's going to be impossible to make. This is another level of dead. 11 dollars down, 79 more to go.

My stream health is a level of trash that I've never experienced before. Guys are staying in my room just because they remember what I looked like yesterday.
I'm just gonna take a shower and watch movies for the rest of the night. Got an onlyfans subscriber today but that's about it.

It became very common to sit in an empty room for hours on Jasmin. Not just my room is like that.
No more back to back pvt, or if u tease u ll get anything.
Sometimes a well paying one shows up, and even gifts are nice time to time, but there are hours when we just sit without anyone coming in or talking.
Especially on weekdays. And now months passed by like this, so i m pretty sure things wont "pick up" like they used to before.
I liked to focus on one site for years, and I did really great that way, but now I wonder on two things:
1: just sign up on some other site, maybe that would make my time more "productive"
2: or (what probably ll be my pick) get what I can out of it, but my focus is on to get out in the upcoming two yrs.
Actually I can practice what I studied in coding in the empty hours, so i m not that far anymore to be able to do another job, even from home if i want to.
My "situation" is not that bad btw. I mean i can make more than what I need and I stopped doing long shifts, and I dont give too much focus into it anymore...
but this slow - boring ass timewasting is simply not for me.
These assholes who are swarming on the internet are not for me either.
Even when I made 10K + in a month, I never felt compensated for the shit I had to do for it, I was never happy , but frustrated knowing the next day I ll be in my room alone again, I ll do the same shit I hate, say words I dont mean ( thinking hard about what are the words I dont mean, but I have to say - lmao how fucking stupid is that) and once I finish I ll be just too wasted to live or do anything.
At least a yr ago and before it was possible to do the shit. Now shit is heavier and u need to struggle for less - I dont see anymore why to push this.
I sometimes "peek" in other rooms. There are pretty models on the top pages, or further and their rooms , just like mine are quiet and dead. And in my mind it just doesnt make sense at all - and I talking only about free chat activity now, not even pvts.

I think there must be something going on. Since yesterday I'm mainly getting 1-2min shows, I've had Exclusive not work after accepting (guys getting booted), lots of "user connection issue"... whatever SM is doing, they better get it sorted ASAP cause I need to pay my rent on Friday! FML

welp....i havent had a peep on indy at all today....nobody is even coming in my room on SM, much less even speaking, much less even spending. And now im tired and cranky....I hate ending the day at 0, but thats just the way this job goes sometimes. I hope tomorrow is the rare, elusive 'good Wednesday' cause rn im way way way tf behind on my weekly low goal and its bill time.

The past few days have been absolutely heart breaking and depressing. Yesterday only about 20$, today a few cents...I can't live off of this no longer if it keeps getting worse. I'm trying to get a job application and if I get accepted I'm out of here. I'm better than these cheap staring contest holding cucks. Fucking losers. The reason why I don't date anymore is cuz men are greedy af and only want sex. Give me your money and leave me alone!!!!

Its been going on like this since begin of January. Living hell! Its not picking up for me and its soon mid-february. Did the cam goddess leave me for good now?! I hope not!
I'm broke and bills are waiting to be paid dammit!! I can't afford to be this broke rn.
I didn't hear from my job application either so I guess I can forget a "normal" job for now. I'm not gonna give up and send more. Not okay to sit around and not make cash!!!! I'm better than this.

I was able to do that but I've lost ALL my contacts. I recommend you to back them up, if you google it you'll find out how. Also, it did that to me a couple times before it fully banned me. Beware. I suspect it's because of my profile pic, which was "too sexy" I guess, although I had no nudity in it. It banned me after I changed it from nothing to one in which I was fully clothed, so I don't trust it anymore. I have a landscapey pic on my new one now. Not risking it. I'm gonna have to go back to all the confirmation emails from CMD and Skyprivate and add people manually. Fucking kill me already. I'm late to pay rent, and I have two deadlines next week. Ugh.

It totally varies but some months I can pull great income working around 55-75 hours/month. Other months I have to work as much as 120 hours/month. Although my hourly rate stays fairly consistent, last year November and December were the slowest. In 2018, my slowest month was February... great months to take vacations IMO :)

Almost cried on cam today. It's been so bad that I dread getting on. I have literal states of panic where I am frozen on my phone for hours - my mental health is all fucked up. To add insult to injury I'm now making less because I'm in CA and now an employee of SM. I hate how my happiness in life determines how busy it is on cam. But I need to pay my fucking bills.
Once they (SM) announced the new contest my traffic died, it's like this every time. Oh well :(

This resonates with me. I've been able to keep logging in more than a year now to stream my shifts despite sales being bad, but Feb has been so bad all I want to do is sleep.
I'm doing worse than last year where I was relatively new & building a following. I'm struggling with motivation. This week's pay is supposed to go towards business expenses to get me out of camming for good & it's grim.
I feel you.

Nothing, and I mean not even money made on a good Sunday, makes me appreciate working on streamate more than working on a token site. Jesus fuckkkkkk. I’m packing my dildos and logging back on sm because fuck this. Fuck. This.
What’s worse than barely making a dime OR barely keeping ppl in your room is knowing that you failed to do all of that WHILE your pussy was on display. The vibe of token sites makes me feel gross asf dude. Yeah yeah, you can make bank with your clothes on. But my stuck up ass hasn’t. Only place I can do that hustle IS on sm. Token site guys are different. Entitled. Bore easy. Tip less for more.
To put my lil ego aside and attempt the latter option just for....nothing? I will happily make even less on sm if it means I can at least charge for the pussy.
