Do you choose to use the noise cancelling feature in your logitech mic when you broadcast or not? I have always had it checked, but it seems like the sound cuts in and out, and people don't hear my music unless it's loud, which ends up annoying me. It seems that if I don't have it checked, the mic would pick up a lot more sound around me (which could be good or bad if my SO happens to be talking on the phone or something), but I am so jealous of what I perceive as good quality sound from other models, and I want that too! hehe Yes, dedicated mic would be awesome, but I don't have the ability to go there yet. Just wondering if there is anything I can do to improve my sound quality with the regular hd logitech equipment.

Actually I always uncheck the "RightSound" feature on the Logitech software. I think I saw another model advise that in another thread a while back, so I tried it and have never had any issues. I also play jazzy music at a mid-level volume in the background, where the guys can hear it but I don't have to talk loudly over it.

Ok ok silly noob privates question - I'm on streamate currently and sometimes when I'm in a private show, things will just be starting up, maybe 4 minutes in and the dude starts asking if I'm near orgasm yet because he wants us to cum together. Now, irl I'm a slow cooker, not a microwave... but it doesn't much matter since I generally fake my O's online anyway. I just would like to hear what other ladies do in this situation - do you speed yourself up to have a happy customer (but maybe a shorter private) or do you let him know you're not there yet and take your time? And if it's the second one what's a sexy way to do that?? Cause I can't think of one X) Thanks!

First off, thanks for the LOL with the slow cooker/microwave comparison. Ha! :D

If he seems like a minute-man, i.e. someone who's not going to last and hasn't done anything but give short demands for the entire chat, then I usually just let him have a fake O quickly so I can get back to free chat and find someone who will take me away for a longer session.

If it's someone who's engaging in more conversation/dirty talk, and seems more interested, then I'll try to draw it out. I seductively challenge them to slow down and control their orgasms so we can come together.

Just a bit of information for anyone new signing up for Adultwork and who wants to get paid through Payoneer: I had serious issues getting Payoneer approved on their site, due to some back end bugs on AW's end. I eventually got it sorted out through support, but it took two emails and about a week.

Hey everyone! I've been camming for about two days without much success due to a lag on my cam. I have a Logitech 525 cam and am using a Compaq Presario cq56 notebook with a Intel Celeron processor with 2.0 GB of memory. I've run a diagnostic on my computer and everything seems to be fine but I keep getting the lag when I log onto SM and especially on Kinklive. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No, my laptop is too old for the encoders unfortunately. I managed to fix the problem by getting a CAT6 ethernet cord and changing the flash adapter coding on my laptop.Kinklive still acts a little weird sometimes but streamate is much better. Thanks for the reply though!

2 quickies:
My chosen camname also happens to be the name of an actress on imdb with no information and no real internet presence. Is it safe to "hijack" her name or best to get something truly original?

Secondly: is I really necessary to buy a laptop with an I7 processor? Prices the way they are it's a big investment for something I might not end up enjoying.

Thanks x

Does anyone know how long it usually takes for Payoneer to approve an account? I know we had a thread on here, but I read that they weren't responding to it anymore.

I applied and they had me re-send my ID photos a week ago and now I still haven't heard anything! I have a good amount of money sitting in my Skyprivate account right now and I need to pay for something with that money. Irritating!

Im not a newbie but im also not very computer savvy O_O so i have question. On streamate if my bitrate and frame rate is low in ranking, what would be causing that issue? The encoder, my computer, or internet? Thanks:P

This is probably a newbie question, but here goes:

What is the deal with viewing a user's cam? Is there money to be made there for real? Because… I just don't feel like it. I don't mind getting naked, doing cum shows, going private, using toys… I just really don't feel like seeing that much dick, at all. I'm not sure I could do it without laughing, no matter the size. UNINTERESTED.

Quite a few guys really lean in trying to get me to view their cam - surprise, surprise. Should I capitalize on it? I seriously doubt that I could make it a regular thing, as I just don't feel like treating that many penises like they are such a treasured thing. There has been such a demand for it though, that I am considering doing a highest tipper contest, to make it special or something… At least then I would feel a bit more motivated to fake the funk.

(I am so much better at being sexual for these guys when not looking at them, hahahaha.)

Do whatever you feel comfortable with. If you don't want to c2c then don't do it!! You have the pussy, so you make the rules. Period. If they don't like it, then they don't deserve to be graced by your beauty anyway!

Another tip is that if you do c2c, you can put that encoder screen right over it and you don't even have to watch ;)

Sent you a PM. Just know with SkyPrivate, even after you request the funds, it still takes normally 2-3 weeks for them to process your payment.

If its a common name and not trademarked, you're pretty safe to use it unless you're obviously copying her image as well...or blatantly using her name to capitalize on her fame. For people that choose "normal" sounding cam names, its almost certain somebody somewhere has that name, and if one of those people happened to be an extra in a movie somewhere, I don't think it would provoke anything. If its not too late you can also mess with the spelling a bit just to be on the safe side.

i7 isn't necessary, but your processor speed is. Anything in the i3/5/7 2.6+ range on a desktop should be fine, just make sure you have plenty of RAM to go with (4MB+). Laptops are hobbled so they don't overheat, so you'll want the best possible there if you go that route.

Hello. Does anyone know of a good cam software that will allow me to embed the streaming video feed directly into the member's area of my personal website? I used to use CoffeeCup but although I paid for it, they no longer support the software so it is too complicated to get it to work now so I will never buy anything from them again. (I have to uninstall/reinstall after every use.)

If you have an SM account, you can have the external show feature enabled to pipe it right to your site (and effectively turn off public chat on SM as well if you want). This has the added bonus of getting affiliate signups while you stream.

There's two other companies (both UK-based) that do have products along this line, but they want you to use the built-in pay processor as well for your pay walls.

That would involve you getting in trouble, as it is external communication. X

Hi Katy and thanks! I assume you mean Streammate? If so, no I don't use any of the large commercial cam sites as I don't offer nudity, free or Vanilla chat and I believe all of the above is mandatory from what I've read.

Ok I have a question concerning shows. Say you're in a private and the guy wants you to watch him jerk off. Without giving you any other information, do you assume he ONLY wants to be watched (as in, you sit there and stare at the screen) or are you expected to get naked/play with yourself while watching?

I expect it probably varies depending on the customer, but in general, what have you found is more common? How do you act in those shows?

Procrasturbator
04-14-2015, 01:54 AM
^ I can't say I've encountered a guy who doesn't give ANY other information, even when prompted. Sometimes guys like that are just really into their own dicks, and they just want you to ooh and ahh over it, talk about how big it is, how hot it is to see him jerk off, etc. These guys will often have names like MrBigD or something silly like that. However IME that's relatively rare. Most guys who want you to watch them jerk off want to watch you jill off too, and they're certainly not going to be turned off if you say something like "God that's hot, my pussy is getting wet already. Mind if I play with myself?"

The only guys who are going to take issue with that might be subs who want to be made to feel like they don't deserve to see you naked (clothed female, naked man.) So if he's giving off submissive vibes then tread carefully, but if you want to test the waters you can try and make him "earn" seeing your cleavage/covered ass, then if he responds well to that you can move up to taking off an item of clothing.

If there are no other clues, he just says "wanna watch me jerk off?" then goes private and won't respond to anything you say, then I'd just kind of hang out in a sexy pose and watch with an eager, turned on look on my face while I stroke my legs/along my cleavage/etc and comment positively on his dick/what he's doing until he gives me something else to work with. But that's just me. Non-interactive shows are so much less fun for me so I probably wouldn't work as hard as I could to keep him around.

In my experience, most guys really like the idea of their dick being "so great" that you get off on it too. I've only rarely had guys who didn't want me to masturbate with them but again, it all depends on the guy. You can try asking questions like, "is there anything special I can do for such a hot guy like you?" to get an idea of what they're looking for. The more you can stroke their ego, the better.

I comment on what he's doing and tell him how "hot" it is.
Then I just ask what he wants to see.

Ok, I need help. Where in the world can I find satin (not silk) panties, preferably full backs or bikini cut?

I get this request so often but I have no idea where to find them. I've googled and googled but the only things that come up are pricey silk panties (this isn't worth more than $10-20 for a few pairs to me) or super unflattering.

The ironic thing is that the kind of panties I'm looking for are exactly the kind my mom used to buy for me before I started buying (OK, shoplifting lol, I was a teenage girl after all) "sexier" stuff as a teen. If only I'd known!

^^I don't know the answer to this question, but I'm going to say something that might be totally idiotic, or might be helpful. When I was wondering about this same issue, I wasn't aware that "satin" isn't a type of fabric fiber, it refers to a type of fabric texture. That was an important difference for me because I was trying to look for panties that said "100% Satin" on the tag, and later realized that I couldn't find them because that doesn't exist. Satin panties can be made of silk, nylon, polyester or a lot of different blends. I think that your success in finding what you're looking for will depend on how shiny you want them to be. If you have guys that want them to be visibly shiny, it's going to be harder to find than if guys just want a smooth, slippery feel. Either way, I don't know where to get them, sorry.

This might be a good sewing project for someone that knows how to do that...

Yes, satin is not a fabric but a shiny looking fabric texture, exactly what Magical mentioned above, u find them in any lingerie stores, online & in shops, u really need to look for shiny panties, i have them & i have members that want them, they not easy to find but still available on the market.

It's all in how you reply...sexy, sultry and caring also towards him. I say as sexy as I can, I'd love to cum, it takes a couple minutes, please, is that okay? And they always say yes. If a guy wants you to cum he means it (faking or not) he wants to know you're having just as much fun. 2 minutes is what it takes for me to really cum with the hitachi and it's not too long of a wait for him. Just my opinion

Streamate lets you sell videos as long as you get paid through them. Basically a guy sends you gold for whatever amount you asked, and you send him a link to download the video from an external site. Unfortunately, SM has no built in video selling feature :/

I sell videos through Streamate. As long as you don't take them off site it is perfectly okay :). I use projectmaenad and send them a direct download link to the video. That's the key right there, it HAS to be a direct download.

I know I'm fairly new to camming, but not new to adult entertainment and in my years of experience I can't say enough, READ the Code of Conduct. AND READ READ READ and READ again the performer manual. I printed the damn thing and read through it whenever I'm bored. Always "cover your ass" if you know what I mean. ;-)

http://www.streamatemodels.com/documents/en/performer-manual.pdf

This is a job where the possibility of making good $$ is endless, so don't mess up. And also, whenever you message support a question, the form you fill out specifically asks you've if you read the manual. I know not all questions are answered there, but most are. Also, Vanessa has some very informative youtube videos that may answer a lot of questions too. I set up my encoder by watching her youtube video, then tweeked it by reading the forum here.

Quoted the wrong quote, I meant to say that Ivy and the girls are right. One of the first things in the manual mentions this:

"Selling Items/Services in Chat
Some performers offer incentives for members to give higher amounts of Gold. Performers should feel free
to get creative when asking members to contribute, but you must follow all site rules. Members should never
be taken off site and personal contact information should never be exchanged. If you can’t give the reward
during your stream or through the Streamate Mailbox or Confidential Phone Service, you shouldn’t offer it. If
your account violates these rules, you could be suspended or have your account terminated."

I had no idea! This is going to simplify things so much for me.

I get shiny panties off eBay from wholesale sellers in China. Sizing can be hit and miss, so getting exact dimensions of the garment from the seller is pretty crucial; my UK size L bottom has been anything from L to XXXL in Chinese panties.

If he bought it through Amazon, you should get an email that looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/V0pOUEj.png (with whatever e-card he picked, that will be different)

If you're scared to click the link in the email, or if he sent you a code by itself, go to amazon.com/redeemgift and copy/paste it there.

The person who bought the gift card can't see who redeems it, so you don't have to worry about them seeing your purchases or account. It's a lot safer than the wishlist in that way. Hope that helps!

It was probably a scam then. I wouldn't accept any sort of payment unless it was from the company itself.
