My fucking husband won't recognize work that I do to save me time in the long run as work in comparison to camming. Right now I'm working on a program that will write my follow fridays, from a list of chosen names in a random order each week, for me for the rest of the year into a format that I can bulk upload using hootsuite. (Edit: Just finished it)

I understand he wants me to make money now, but at the same time, I'm not just dicking around doing nothing. Plus, after seeing something disgusting on cam, I'm a little hesitant over being on cam (even though I know I gotta suck it up and get back on) and this is something I enjoy doing at the same time. I'm hopping in the shower in 45 min and blowdrying my hair so I can go to bed afterwards so I can be up at 7 or 8 am to get on cam by 9am anyway.

I'm only over one day more than what I usually take off a week as it is, and that's because he insisted I take a day off to spend time with him. My next day off isn't until next Monday, when I have to separate a kitten out from food so he can be neutered the next day, and the only place to do that is in the cam room. And that's only if I don't get my camming done in the morning first.

Grrrr grumble bitch

I'm so pissed at MFC. I'm kinda new there (since jan 16th) and it's going SLOW. Only got like 173 $. It started out ok because of the "new model" stamp, but no i hardly get any traffic! For a few days I had a maximum of 7 viewers!? Like wtf!? No one is even tipping me and my camscore keeps dropping and dropping :( I'm sick of all the freeloaders telling me to do stuff for free, and other dudes just talking about their dogs and the weather. This really get's me in a bad mood. I really don't know what to do anymore.

So this morning a guy started complaining about my camscore and didn't think I would get naked and stuff. I told him that I DO get naked and offer shows. He said that I should do something hot to get viewers. I told him that i'm not there to get freeloaders that won't tip me (I'm always sitting in my underwear if that matters), and that many other girls can sit there on their PJ's and still get tips. Yaya, he said everyone is different. So yeah, I listened to what he said, and then I sat there topless. Did it help? No. Sure, I got like 3 more viewers but only ONE was talking to me and he was just a basic. No I'm taking a break after 2 h with NO tokens at all. This is just upsetting to me.

I'm a sweet girl with a nice bod. I'm always talking to my viewers and laugh a lot. So I really don't know what the problem is. The thing is that I just won't get any traffic and with a low camscore I'm about to just give up.

Camming sucks because some moron on mfc recorded my free chat yesterday, (hadn't met a goal for naked or anything! was just chatting with the guys and flashing for tips, sending vids etc). Premium member Dude sends me an inbox message saying he recorded me and sent me a link to where the video he recorded was at. WTF is wrong with these guys? Damn Ive been recorded before, but this dude wanted to just rub it in my face for some reason I guess. I got screenshotted his message and emailed it to support at mfc about this guy etc. Just kinda put me in a bad mood all day yesterday.

the number 1 main reason i quitted MFC. Its probably the same guy what did it to me. He recorded me everyday my whole sessions (none nude) and uploaded them 2 like 10 sites. he did this for months. the amount of time i spent sending DMCA requests was more time then i actually spent on webcam. i aint been on MFC for a few months now so he probably moved on to you... although he never messaged me or anything, he just did it.

If you need to, you can make an appointment with pp and they will do it on a sliding scale. Assuming you don't have insurance and you have one nearby.

It's always stupid slow, guys popping in and out as if they can't keep a steady connection, guys saying they can't go private cuz they're at work, or just broke ass freeloaders. Does anyone make good money during the morning/afternoon hours?! I'm ready to pull my hair out!!! $6 in 2 hours!!

02-06-2014, 11:18 AM
I seem to make better money in the morning I think because there are less american bbws online, but today it has been like pulling teeth even though my placement was better. Hopefully it will suck less after lunch.

I've given up on mornings here lately. I have the same problem. Guys saying they are at work (then why are you here?!) freeloaders, ect. Sucks because I've mainly worked days since I've started too but here lately its just not worth it.

I think she meant ups and downs! Overall, SM is still VERY good to me if I'm willing to work!

I know some may say SM is dead to them, that's a pretty bold statement that I don't necessarily agree with but I respect their right to share their personal experience!

Well overall I think it's safe to say sm works better for some than others. Personally I'm about to give up on it completely, its just not like how it used to be and it hasn't for a long time now. But thats ok though, maybe its just meant for me to go on to something else.

Exactly. Honestly it was making me feel bad at first, but the more I thought about it I realized that just because so many people do well there doesn't mean its gonna be the best site for everyone. I had a good run with sm my first year but to be honest I should have let it go about a year ago. Now I'm putting more into other sites and have been happier lately because of that.

If it makes you feel any better. I've made it to the top three rows on the first page of SM and that site *still* isn't working for me. ;)

I just can't focus in my privates with all the glitches that have been happening. I am very happy that many girls are still banking on Streamate. You get your $$$, bbs! ;D

But for me, it looks like it will soon be time to be moving on somewhere else.

This happened to me when I was in college. Turned out my boyfriend had been cheating on me without using protection. Now I get a full panel done at least once a year, EVERY year, no matter what. Totally worth it for the peace of mind!

SM became a hostile work environment for me & i see for many as well; i had a period before holidays when i was doing good but lately my room is empty, no traffic anymore, no regulars, i messed up my work schedule & sleep, i just dont seem to be able to get back on track. I also know this work situation is 'playing' with my mind and feelings, i start to doubt my value as a cam girl. I could do with a more pleasant site to work on, is there any site like that?!

Today has sucked big time. It's always the same exact losers in free chat begging and the same fucking idiots that always want a date. I wish cam sites would earn their pay and ban these fuckers if they don't spend a certain amount of money per week. Letting freeloaders piss off your performers isn't a very smart idea.

Its been a while since I've worked mornings. 6am-9am pretty much sucks ass for me. After 9am I was able to make my goal by late afternoon. But the past few times I've logged on in the morning it was a hit or miss with making my goal or anywhere close to it. I think I'm going to start working throughout the day (morning, evenings, and nights) again though because these past few nights have sucked. Ugggggh, I need to get my sleeping sched back on track.

Oh I am applying boundaries. It's just when I get a pedo (who is jacking off on cam that I can't turn off on IML) and need to see if he's done anything that is reportable to the authorities that is it very difficult for me to handle those moments, and I've been getting a lot of them on IMLive lately where if I end the video chat, I can't access the text afterwards for screenshots and waiting for the guy to close it instead is horrible. At least now I have my auto screenshot prog for Win8 that I made and am going to buy post its to cover the cam area for IML. Hopefully this will help. That or if i could just stop getting the god damn kiddie diddlers - that would be great!

Marina is so right, I have fucked up a few times in private and you know what, I laugh it off.. and when you do that, seems the guys will laugh along with you, I had a guy that I thought said he wanted me to use a strap on on him.... whoops, I was wrong lol I felt so bad!!! but you know what, we both laughed and continued.

Its been down right sucky for me. and of course, today, I am in a CMD show, and forget to turn off my NF line and miss 2 calls from 2 big spenders,so pissed.. I did get the one to call back but the other, by the time he got back to me on skype, my family was on their way home :(

For me personally there are glitches and trolls up the ass. Soon as I get my hands on a new laptop I may be done with sm all together. Such a shame because there is good $ to be made I'm not willing to have a stroke due to stress from the site constantly glitching out. LoL :)

"lol ur boring as fuck"

Smh so rude. I would've said "Then why are you still here? You can go somewhere else if you feel that way. No one is forcing you to stay in my boring ass room. Insert eyeroll".

I think some guys say this to try an get a rise out of us or they hope that we will prove to them that we aren't boring by getting up dancing, showing our tits, etc.
