^^ Yes. There is a window that shows the name of the check through it. So yeah, anyone can see you're getting a check from Streamate. I hated that so I switched to Payoneer direct deposit.

Someone should really ask Streamate to stop breaching camgirl's privacy...they're meant to regard it as important. There is no need for their name to be on the cheque or the envelope...Clips4sale manage to maintain our privacy.

I'll ask them if they can sent an envelope with nothing written on it!

sometimes banks question what you do or if the check was even real.... go with payoneer and you won't regret. there is debit card or global transfer.

I've never had an issue cashing a check. Although there was this one time I got a male employee (drive thru) and after I sent my check to be deposited he tried to get me to come inside to sign up for this awesome new feature or whatever. Was like nooooooooooo, so creepy!

You should google it along with the name of your city. You don't have to have a bank account. I'm not sure if there will be fees in a different state/city though. I always find out the hard way that things vary by state.

was told I posted in a wrong thread. lol..

here it goes-

Anyone working on webcams.com? How is the traffic? What things I should know about webcams.com (like chargebacks, perks, and etc)? I am looking for an extra income.

^ Hi Winona, I cammed there last winter/spring only. They have traffic but for me it was only enough to supplement with other sites. I like the private chat only feature and they are ok w/people splitcamming (unless that's changed recently). Free chat had pretty obnoxious begging.

I'm keeping my acct there-will splitcam when I have a more powerful computer.

ooo thank you! yeah i did not expect to be paid well on there, but every little extra helps. i am trying to have few sites back up so i can leave my job and be camming full time. im feeling nervous. haha

Okay so I just finished my first pay period on MFC and I did the math and it doesnt make sense. We get paid tomorrow so ill find out when it goes through I guess, but shouldn't I make more from privates/groups than from tip tokens?

I did 5% of my tip tokens + (time spent in private x $3, which is still .05%) +(voyeur) +(group)=$$

but when i do 5% of my total tokens it totals to more than the above^. Are privates/groups not worth it then?
Unless im doing something wrong, I make less this way :/ I think im just misunderstanding something about the pay for groups/privates/etc, thinking it was more than it is.

also! has anyone heard of matrixmodels? he contacted me on mfc saying the company wants to work with me. o.o

No, I'm not familiar with Matrix Models.

Re: Groups/privates: Keeping in mind that group shows are only 10 tokens a minute, are you noticing how long guys tend to stick around for your group shows, and how many tokens you're making from them? I had stopped doing groups a while back when I realized it wasn't worthwhile for me. Group shows are really cheap, and sadly a lot of the guys who join them don't stick around long enough for it to be worthwhile for the model. Some of the guys treat group shows like they're discounted private shows...by the way they'll sit there barking orders at the model. Some models do well with group shows though, and I know we had an old thread on here somewhere with suggestions on how to make MFC group shows work. I need to look for that thread myself, because in the new year I may attempt group shows again to see if I can make them work for me.

With group shows and private shows (with people who aren't your trusted regulars) you're sort of taking a gamble leaving potential public chat tippers behind...because you never know how long the guy is gonna stay...especially if he's hiding his tokens. You don't know if he's gonna whisk you away on a quickie 2-minute private show and abruptly leave you hanging with a dildo hanging out your pussy like "WTF?"...lol. Some time ago I was supposed to do a bubble gum private show with a guy on MFC (I bought a pack of gum just for this show), and 30 - 60 seconds into the show he just up and leaves. I was pissed. When I do things differently on MFC I'm gonna lay out the guidelines in my profile and room topic on what I expect of group/private shows, because I can't be doing these little 30-second privates. In my opinion, guys who are new to your room should unhide their tokens before buzzing you for private. Members who only have like 100 tokens shouldn't even bother inviting a model to a private show.

show.
I was only in group for about 25 minutes but only three people stayed the whole time, there were several going in and out. I'm thinking groups just aren't worth it. Nor are privates unless it's for a set amount of time. I had my first and only private so far for 15minutes and I only got 900tokens for things that in public I would've done large countdowns for. Thanks for your input. I'll probably turn off the option to request groups from now on.

I tried searching the forums and googling the issue in general, but I couldn't find anything. I'm trying to test VerySoft WebCamSplitter and the video works, but when I select the verysoft audio device, nothing transmits. Do I need an external microphone for it to work? Or am I missing something? I can't see anything in settings that let's me adjust the audio settings.

I tried in skype and some video capturing software. There is no audio unless I select the Logitech C920 mic but it won't split when I tried it. The very soft audio detects as nothing, but maybe it's my software giving me issues. I just didn't want to try it on sm or iml until after I tried it otherwise first. I'll try it again though, this time using different programs. If that doesn't work, I'll uninstall and reinstall the trial to see if it installed incorrectly.

Edit: I think it may be Skype not wanting to play well. When I select my webcam's mic, the encoder sees audio transmitting as well as my recording software.

hmm i see do you have two sites u can try it on just to see if it works even if its for 5 min? if you need me to test them for u i can just hit me up on yahoo mess

Yup, it was not working with Skype for some reason. I rebooted and now it seems to be working fine with it. I was able to record myself showing off my new kitten in a different program and talk to my brother on skype at the same time. Now off to buy the full version and not just use the trial with the big red test of "unregistered" all over it. Thanks Snowy about the info of just using the webcams mic rather than the verysoft audio!

Stupidest question ever. On streammate will you make more money if you have more than one guy in your private at once vs just one guy?

^ Yes, if you have 2 guys in your premium chat you'll earn twice the commission, 3 guys = three times the commission, etc :)

I have a question about amazon gift cards, I know a lot of you use them. I have never used them before, but I decided to try it once. I gave the guy a link to the uk amazon, because I shop there. He said that he has sent the giftcard to my email, but I have not received anything yet. Is it instant? Should I receive it in my email?

Vlodina
01-03-2014, 01:30 AM
It should be pretty much instant, but there was one occasion it took about three hours to get to me. That's the day I stopped accepting Amazon for camshows. Remember and check your spam too. X

01-03-2014, 01:37 AM
I took it as a payment for a clip, so it's not a problem to wait, I just hope that it works. It's been maybe an hour since he told me that he has paid. I'll wait a little more, he didn't seem like he wanted to scam me. And my spam is empty.

Ashley_3
01-03-2014, 02:00 AM
Ok, I finally got it, it took them about an hour. I have another question. When I redeem the card do amazon let the buyer now that it's been redeemed or something? I'm asking, because I decided to redeem it from my personal account and I don't want him to see that.

So I recently acquired a C920 and I love it... except for the lack of a decent mirror feature (unless I set it to like 320p or something... I've somehow made it work on Skype but not on regular cam.) Anyone else have this issue? Seeing myself non-mirrored is freaking me out!

Ok I can't figure out where to put this so will try here in the hope of finding a Mac expert. I've been running my macbookpro for about a year and a half now (before that I was running an antique G4!). On upgrading I noticed problems between mac and flash - found the answers to that here and since then have been running the same version of flash (11. something) and ignoring updates. I'm wondering if macs with OS lion still have this issue - is it safe to upgrade to a later version of flash? And if so which one?

Love this forum! Thanks in advance - Jane

I had like 2 guys buy from my wishlist no problem then one guy said it kept trying to ship to him. So I'd like to know this also. My guys in Canada dunno if that has anything to do with it. I signed into my personal amazon and went on my wishlist and it gave me the option for the wishlist address.

My computer messed up and showed that as the last post didn't see snowy's replies. Yea my guy just told me he couldn't buy anything and that was it. Never asked for address and dropped it.

I have an address cause other people have bought me stuff. I'm thinking it's because he's in Canada and I'm in the US. I don't know. I see UK girls with a UK wishlist I don't know.

Alright, this is a pretty newbie question.
I started about 3 weeks ago on MFC and love it. It's my first time camming. However, recently I'm only making money if my regulars are online. I'd reach my goal within seconds of putting it up and I have to say that 75% of all the tokens I've gotten on MFC are from one guy.
Today I was on for an hour and the chat was active but I received no tips and now my camscore dropped to 4100(not entirely sure how camscores work tbh)! I know that its that time of the year, and that on MFC you need to build a fanbase and there are a lot of freeloaders, but it just really got me down today.

So, my question is about Streammate! I'm thinking of signing up on there.
Is it a hard transition to go from MFC to Streamate? I'll be honest, I don't know much about Streammate and as far as my understanding of it goes, you cant really sit there and talk to people and get money for it, like I do on MFC. Or flashes for tips?

I've been looking on Streammate and it seems a lot more complicated than MFC. And harder to make money being soft core. Thoughts? Am I completely wrong hah??

I'm having trouble with my sound on MFC. On Skype or whatever my sound works fine... but when sound is on for my MFC chat room, it freezes and gets laggy. Anyone else have that problem? It's only with MFC! Also, today everything was working fine (without sound), then a few hours in my webcam got all laggy and weird and kept re-loading. Is anyone else having problems with MFC right now or just me?!

I've been having sound issues on MFC for months, and I'm sick of members telling me I need to turn up my sound when I actually do have it up to the max just because of this issue. I always have to mute the tip sound now, because with my volume up to the max the tip sound would be horribly loud. Unfortunately, when someone takes me private there's no way to control how loud the private show sound is. And it is LOUD.....

I have to cam on MFC using Firefox because, as of a few months ago, the members and I have noticed that it's NO SOUND AT ALL when I use Google Chrome on there, and I don't know why. I've always used Chrome on MFC.

It's a pain in the ass when something's screwed up on MFC (like last night when I suddenly got kicked out of my chatroom...your token count resets to 0 when you re-enter your chat, and I hate that), and it messes with the chill vibe of my room cuz I've got people complaining and trying to pin the problems on me.

Hate that. I had some guy last night complaining that my feed was laggy and I was going nuts trying to figure out where on my end it was. Then I ran a quick speedtest and my upload/download/pings were fucking phenomenal and he grudgingly admitted that my internet was twice as fast as his. It MUST have been an MFC issue. Then there was that massive shut-down the other day :/

I've tried figuring this out from the SM's site handbook, but I can't find anything. So.....If I start streaming exclusively with the HD setting, instead of with the external encoder, will I lose my ability to do gold shows?

if u dont have them already u wont be able to get them until u use the encoder but if u have them already at least use the HD settings on the internal interface. personally i do my voyeur GSs after my "real shift" without the encoder in the HD widescreen settings (i think) - its the one before the encoder in the drop-down menu because it bogs down my computer and i cant do much with it on.

Hi everyone I'm new ^-^
I just have a question about income taxes.. I would still have to file right? I work on mfc and mgf and I'd have to report how much I made on both sites? Also I'm 18 and my parents don't know/can't know about me doing this so I'm not sure how that's going to work when it comes to taxes. I'm just super confused and stressed out about this because I'm really worried my parents will find out, and also I don't want to get in trouble for not paying taxes/doing it wrong >.<
thanks :-[
