So, I'm pretty lost as far as conversation starters go. Today in chat, it was a little slow, and then it's met with that terribly awkward silence, where I put on that fake smile and keep moving around. I tried asking if anyone would be watching the Superbowl tomorrow, or asked if anyone played any video games (I'm a gamer, so I figured what better way to get them talking then to ask them about something I'm interested in?) Nope, totally bombed. Anyone know any decent conversation starters?

^^I wouldn't worry too much about starting conversations. They're coming into *your* room. Be polite and engage them, but don't feel like you need to fill in silence with chatter, or you might go crazy. If you like to say hello, say hi, how are you to each person, and let them be. If they're sitting in there being quiet, then my guess is that they've got their hands on their dicks instead of their keyboards. Or, better yet, do some promo work/other work while you're waiting for it to pick up again.

Def 2nd what Maryjayne said and I also like to pretend im talking to or laughing at a member.of course in reality im just talking to myself but you cant wait for them to talk to you,bc a huge majority just wont.or will jump in after awhile.pay too much attention to one member or get too involved in a conversation and most guys wont want to "interrupt" to take you private either.
So if youre into gaming,thatd be perfect to use since guys love to game! Ask all of them what they play and then answer pretend custies that arent really there."oh you like WoW?meee too!what a coincidence! oh custie number 2 ive never played that game,do you like it?" etc etc keep the conversation open to the whole room,while maybe saying one or two things to an imaginary viewer before talking to the whole room again.i hate that awkward silence but ive found if im too engaging and just all around awesome,they dont take me private bc im giving too much entertainment away for free so that silence can def work to your advantage as well.

Sorry, Winona, I have no idea :(
Question: I get paid from naked.com with the CMB Paycard. I can cash out whenever I want to, they charge $9.95 every time I cash out and they load the funds on your card the next business day. The problem is, about a dozen times over the last 4 months I have not gotten my funds on the next business day. I am paying this ridiculous fee for the convenience of having my money available to me the next day and I feel that if they are not going to process my payments on time I should not have to pay this much just to cash out. If it happened once or twice maybe I could understand but this is almost every time I cash out. So my question is, legally, can I complain to them and demand they waive or reduce this cash out fee every time they do not load my funds on the next business day? Why should I pay them for a service they are not providing? If more girls complained do you think they'd actually do anything? I just need some advice on how to get my money the way I am supposed to, it is so frustrating to pay so much and not get decent service.
(The crappy part is, I am kind of stuck with CMB. I can't do paper checks because my bank doesn't have any locations in my state so check cashing fees would be too expensive, and if I opted for Payoneer I would end up spending more in load fees + transaction fees than I do with CMB, since CMB doesn't have any fees other than the cash out fee. I'd actually love their service if there weren't constant delays and I just want to know what I can do about it.)

CourtneyRaine - I would try sending an email if you haven't already. I've never used or even heard of the CMB Paycard so I don't really know, but in my experience with payout systems an email never hurts. Maybe they'll clear something up like "you have to cash out before 2:37 pm" or something silly like that.
Question: I really couldn't find a thread pertaining to this, and I wasn't sure if it warranted it's own... The past few days I've had a few guys ask me to be bitchy to them and treat them like shit on cam. I have no problem doing this.
The problem is that I'm not used to myself being shitty to people unless they piss me off. I find it hard to "just be mean" because I've been treated like shit and I've pretty much made it my goal to never do that to anyone.
That, and I just not use to talking dirty. I've thought about having phone sex with my boyfriend (he's really into it, I'm just like eh) to get use to hearing myself say things I wouldn't normally say without incorporate that... help?
CourtneyRaine
02-06-2013, 11:42 AM
Thanks, but what would I even say in an email? I've called them and they've told me they don't have anyone there to process payments full time so one of the managers does it whenever she can, sometimes even processing the payments after the business day. So.... Yeah. I don't even know what to say to that.
To answer your question about being mean, it's also something that is not in my nature and when guys will ask for that I'll actually tell them it's not something I am into and they might be happier finding another model, and I'll refer them to anyone I know who is online and good at the things I am not. If I know I can't give them a good show I'd rather decline so that they get what they want and I'm only doing awesome shows and getting lots of repeat business and regulars. As far as talking dirty, it comes naturally to me so I'm not sure how to learn it but maybe you can try reading erotica? Not on cam but just for research purposes, it can get you into a sensual mood and show you how to build things up and expand your dirty word vocabulary.

Dang I don't even know what to say to them then. Maybe ask if they've received complaints from other girls about the delay, also. Do you know if it's been happening to others?
And it's hard to turn down offers to cam. I've never actually cammed before, (90% of my income is custom vids/pics, and 10% is reselling those vids and pics when I can) and my rates are higher than my custom vid rates, so it's like... $$$!!!
I've offered to give him a slightly discounted rate, since he is my first and won't be my last, that way if I make any mistakes, he doesn't feel like he wasted his money, and he's likely to come back if I'm a ~natural~ and pay more, and pay often.
At least, that's what my regulars have done with custom vids, idk if it's different for cam shows...

This sounds strange, but it works. Start talking dirty to yourself. Do it in the shower, the car, while watching tv, anything! Just get super comfortable saying things all the time. It will also help give you ideas for new things to say. The more you talk dirty, the easier and more comfortable you will feel doing it. And since you'll be talking to yourself, you won't be as self conscious so you can really get into it, so by the time you're camming you're ready!

Hmm...what are you putting in when you search here for your problem? Im thinking its just the way youre wording it bc there are like hundreds of threads about domination etc here.So id start with typing in domination and then trying other words such as femdomme,humiliation,dominatrix,sissy,sissies,siss y training,verbal humialtion,small penis humiliation,SPH etc after youve read the domination threads.
Also,every thread has five recommended similar threads at the very bottom that usually pertain to the threads topic so you can read those as well.Id also search dirty talk,bitch,S&M,roleplay,etc.Theres a wealth of info just searching those terms alone,and i know i havent listed all of them by far lol i know it sucks going through so many threads,but I still do it and Ive been camming 6 mths now.Im a natural bitch in real life,and i STILL have a hard time thinking of what to say on the spot on cam.Its frustrating to naturally be dominant and bitchy yet not be able to convey that well on cam.
Also,when looking at threads,you can look over at the right hand side of the page and itll list which category each thread is in.Besides looking at the ones in camming connection,id look at any that are listed in Other Work and Industry Insight as well.Good luck to ya hun!

SassyPickles I'm so going to try that. I already feel ridiculous but I can't wait to start talking shit while watching the news or browsing Tumblr. I feel like that'll keep me busy xD
For some reason I didn't even think about searching anything other than "bitchy" or "bitchness" and neither of those pulled up what I was looking for, at least, the thread names didn't seem like it. I will search harder now though that I realize I was thinking too small/too specific.
Thanks!

Jiggle.tv is a studio for ifriends. Never join a studio when you can sign up for the site directly and earn the highest percentage possible. Even if you have given jiggle.tv your documents DO NOT start streaming with them, have your account canceled immediately. Some studios make you wait 6 months to a year after leaving them before you can sign up with the site directly, but you might be able to get around that if you cancel your application and never stream on there.
Livejasmin, well, I don't work on there but the reason most girls don't like it is the three week payment delay and the fact that it is near impossible to earn the minimum payout once you have completed your $0.99 intro period. I have read repeatedly that the site is full of traffic but it's not paying traffic so it's useless when it comes to making money. I don't know, like I said I have never tried it and some girls do well but I also know many, many girls who have money sitting in their account and refuse to log back in to try to make payout. They would rather forfeit the money they've already made than attempt to log in and make more. Payout is only $100 so that's pretty telling. On most big box sites you can easily make $100 in one shift as once you've established your customer base, just to put things into perspective.

So I just started making videos, so far I have one with the hitachi, one with just fingers, on with a small orange vibrator, and one with a realistic dildo. That makes 4 videos-_-. I see models having like 30 vids up here. Is my toy collection holding me back?(i only have three atm)Also, Ive noticed that it seems like Im selling the same video but with different toys :/ Its hard to make them look different without changing my hair XD. I thought about changing the scenery. Maybe moving to the shower or outside. Do guys not care/notice that its basically the same thing?

Well this isnt really a question just wanted to see if I understood indy camming. So with indy camming you can choose a host site like camcontacts, etc and you get a higher percentage of your money, but guys who want a show pay Camcontacts, am I wrong? ( i may be TOTALLY WRONG) :/ I know some indy models handle the payment themselves but Im totally broke right now so setting up my own payment source isnt doable. Does Camcontacts orther camgirl directories send a check?
CourtneyRaine
02-07-2013, 03:23 PM
Neneko, camcontacts is NOT an indy camming directory. It is a regular cam site like all the other big box sites; they provide you the traffic and you provide the entertainment. I'm not sure where you heard they are an indy listing? Indy means that YOU are driving your own traffic by doing your own marketing such as with twitter, your own website, traffic and banner exchanges, chat trolling, tumblr or other blogs, etc. Camcontacts pays you a check every Monday just like every other regular site will send you a check on a regular basis. If you are looking for indy directories check this thread: http://www.stripperweb.com/forum/showthread.php?155816-Independent-Cam-Directories-Listings&highlight=domino+listing

Video wise there is nothing wrong with changing your outfit/hair/props/location and calling it a completely different clip. Guys don't really mind unless your super mechanical and even then a lot of guys like, what they like.
I'm not sure what site your on but I've never had much luck selling masturbation clips, I find catering to fetishes much more profitable.

02-07-2013, 04:13 PM
Well,
I'm pretty new at camming, but this week I've started LiveJasmin and I did manage to make the $100 minimum to be paid. The bad thing is the price per minute is 1.99, cause nobody enters for more if u r nt a pornstar or something, so u need to work for this money. I was lucky to find a guy who had some fetishes and made me more than 50$ (my cut) in a single pvt.
The idea is to just be logged in, split cam with ur favorite site, and just say hello or answer 1 in 5 questions on Jasmin - ur room fills very fast and everyone says something else, so u get real dizzy if u try to answer them all. And of course, ignore guests and free members and ignore any request for free things. If u r willing to do something in free, you can ask for a surprise - that's how they call tips. Most people will not tip, but then i suppose that happens everywhere.
Also, when u have a private on the other site, u just switch to members area and if somebody enters, they'll be charged from the first second.
At least for the girls who already have money earned there, I would say it's worth it. Also, some girls I know say that hour long or longer privates r not unusual.
Of course, i'll have to see about CB, but..fingers crossed!

02-07-2013, 04:36 PM
I'm not a "fetish" girl either (I don't see myself as one, anyway) but some fetishes are SO easy and lucrative!!!! So never say never :) One of my best reg does 20+ minute shows with me that only consist of my wearing flip flops and zooming the cam in on my toes while I wiggle them. No nudity involved whatsoever. I've also made some easy money selling clips of burping and eating and chewing gummy bears and washing my hair- all non nude and not really "sexual" according to mainstream. There are some fetishes like findom that I just don't understand and can't do well due to the psychology of it but there are also things that come naturally that you wouldn't even think would be a fetish!

[email protected] but what intimidates me is wondering if Im doing it right. The fetish is so foreign to me that I dont know what satisfies the custy. Im def a sub, so findom isnt me lol. I JUST returned from looking up fetishes on google.Im going to make one or two smoking vids, a feet vid and two balloon vids(one where i pop them and the other I dont). Im just gonna have to try my best to do what I think will satisfy them XD Oh and also a SUPER EASY ignore vid. who knew people got off to being ignored ?^_^ well I was unaware lol

Has anyone done anything with cammodeldirectory? I messaged them, and I got a nice reply that made it seem as though they were going to interview me. Does anyone know what I should be expecting? Most of camming is so hands-off with the actual site owners, that it's kind of odd to have to skype with them first.
CourtneyRaine
02-09-2013, 12:04 AM
Neneko, I am also a sub so I do feel like I am missing out on a lot of money from humiliation and domination type shows and clips but with things like that (that are so psychologically fueled) it's best to steer clear of it unless you know what you're doing because guys WILL out you as a fraud. I think you definitely have the right idea of categories to start with; smoking, feet, balloons, and ignore aren't exactly things you can do wrong, know what I mean? Don't worry to much about doing things right or wrong in those categories; guys will definitely tell you exactly what they want you to do. Once they see you are open to making a certain type of video you'll start getting requests to make really specific content. I've literally gotten scripts that are 3+ pages for custom work where the dialogue is literally written out for me, it couldn't be easier. Or if a guy sees I have vore content he'll be like hey, can you do a video of you eating gummy bears? And tear their limbs off? And tell them your sharp teeth are going to rip them to shreds? And make all their little gummy friends watch? And so the more requests like these I've gotten the better I understand the fetish and the easier it becomes to make content.
Sorry ABigBerd, I don't know anything about cammodeldirectory. Did they specifically say they were going to skype with you? Maybe they just want to confirm that you are the person in your ID. I'd be wary if this interview consisted of anything more than a simple verification like that.

Yes the guy will ask you to show your ID , and he will ask a couple of questions, it doesn't take longer than 3 - 5 minutes, is just to see if your cam works properly .. That site was a waste of time for me. No one genuine client , just sick guys and assholes.

I'm also a little confused about daily pay on streamate? Is that available to anyone because I don't remember that option? Are there minimums for pay out each day? I'm on NF and they pay everyday as long as I make at least $5. I would love to get paid daily but have no idea how to do so on SM?
Thx in advance for all your help ladies.

For Daily Pay you need to go to their forum here: http://adultworkwebcammers.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=5
I've never tried MFC and personally wouldn't work on a site that has the word "free" in the title but it works for many.

So about the guys who take you private for 30 second .... I'm really contemplating telling guys upfront that Im not getting naked until after the 30 sec mark. I feel like an idiot stalling and guys arent that "mindless" to not know when its happening. I think the guys who I want as customers would be fine with its as they arent being charged for that first 30 secs anyway. I wont say it constantly, but just a mentioning here or there(or putting it in my profile/topic) may decrease it and eliminate that awkward "sexy" stalling. 30 sec doesnt sound like a long time but it really is when in a private. 0_0 Ill still be cute in the beginning of the private/ask questions,etc but the pressure of "dont make it obvious Im stalling" would be off of me. I realize I cant do anything about the guys who peek inside a private for 30 sec, but Im making money at the time from someone as it is if Im in a private. :D Does anyone do this? Im not looking to be told what to do just curious as to why theres an aversion to this. Has it decreased someones money or something?

I think it may backfire overall, as you will be teaching some guys that don't know about the 30 sec. "trick". We don't want to light bulbs in their heads about how to abuse the system.

Instead of flat out saying "I'm not getting naked before 30 seconds," you can give them a flirty smile and say "Well, do you want it fast, or do you want it good?" LOL. Or sometimes I'll ask them if they're in a rush. They usually say that they're not in a rush, but if someone actually says that he IS in a rush, you can suggest that he come back when he has more time for a sexy show. Every time these guys treat private shows like a fast food restaurant (in and out real quick), they are making us leave the rest of our public chat viewers for it.
If a guy in free chat says "Can you already be naked when I start private?," that's a clue that he's not planning on staying in private for long at all. And no, don't ever start out ALREADY NAKED in private. Drag out that show a little bit when a sexy striptease.
Yeah, you don't want to give anyone ideas about the 30 second thing, but at the same time if someone's telling me "Get naked, bb...take off clothes...GET NAKED, BB..." I'm gonna get pissed and be like "Don't rush me, and by the way, you don't get charged for the first 30 seconds." If Streamate actually did their job and explained this stuff to the guys, then guys would be more informed of how the site works. But instead, when you (the model) try to explain certain things, they're like "Huh?"
Sometimes when I tell guys that pussy's not allowed in free chat, they act like I'm just making that shit up.

They usually say that they're not in a rush, but if someone actually says that he IS in a rush, you can suggest that he come back when he has more time for a sexy show. Every time these guys treat private shows like a fast food restaurant (in and out real quick), they are making us leave the rest of our public chat viewers for it.
If a guy in free chat says "Can you already be naked when I start private?," that's a clue that he's not planning on staying in private for long at all. And no, don't ever start out ALREADY NAKED in private. Drag out that show a little bit when a sexy striptease.
Yeah, you don't want to give anyone ideas about the 30 second thing, but at the same time if someone's telling me "Get naked, bb...take off clothes...GET NAKED, BB..." I'm gonna get pissed and be like "Don't rush me, and by the way, you don't get charged for the first 30 seconds." If Streamate actually did their job and explained this stuff to the guys, then guys would be more informed of how the site works. But instead, when you (the model) try to explain certain things, they're like "Huh?"
Sometimes when I tell guys that pussy's not allowed in free chat, they act like I'm just making that shit up.
Yeah I wish the guys knew so they wouldnt be so clueless. Ive had a guy ask" how fast will you get naked? " before lmao, they just give themselves away. just doont understand why the guys who take you private (for a long time) would have a problem with it, usually paying men are understanding. It doesnt even cost them anything to accommodate this request (30 sec wait).

I usually get past the 30 seconds by asking if they can hear me okay, and if they have any preference where I start.
"Hey there love! Can you hear me alright? Awesome! Now, what did you have in mind...?"

Someone (a female, actually) took me exclusive the other day, and I DID tell her about the 30 second thing because she kept telling me to get naked. When I didn't, she ended it and came back into free chat asking me why I didn't do what she asked. She was like "I spend such and such a minute, and you didn't get naked like I asked." I told her 1) you don't get charged for the first 30 seconds, 2) you weren't charged ANYTHING anyway since you left so fast, and 3) taking me to a short exclusive like that ain't cool at all, and in the future don't do it unless you plan on staying for a reasonable amount of time. She apologized and said she didn't know about the 30 second thing.

I thought they DO get charged for the 30 seconds, so long as they stay at least 31 seconds? A lot of these posts make it sound like the 30 seconds are free either way. That's the dilemma: if they are cheap fucks and leave before 30 seconds, you don't want to be getting naked in that time. If they are spenders, they may be annoyed at the 'stalling'. But you never know - you're gambling sometimes.

True. Though if they're the good quality customers that we all want, they're not gonna be mad about REASONABLE 'stalling'. None of the GOOD quality customers I've had have ever complained about harmless 30 second stalling. Even on ImLive I have to stall, because guys on there get 20 seconds for free, and a lot of guys on there will abuse the hell out of that 20 second feature too.
And when you think about an actual striptease, a striptease should take longer than 30 seconds...lol. If this was a striptease to a song, we're talking about like 3 - 5 minutes right there. There are guys who actually abuse the 30 seconds thing and think that's enough time for a model to A) get completely naked and B) fuck her pussy with a "big toy." *rolls eyes*
It's not realistic for a guy to go private, and expect a model to whip all her clothes off ASAP just because he wants to spend as little as possible. That's just not sexy at all when a guy is in that much of a rush, and I kinda wish there was a way to make guys prepay so that if they pay for privates/exclusives, they have to prepay for like 3 minutes MINIMUM. But then on the other hand, if the model ends up giving a shitty show, he just prepayed for 3 minutes that he can't get out of...lol.

Yep, they do get charged for the first 30 seconds once they get to the 31 second or over mark. You are absolutely right. Actually when I was on SM I'd notice a lot of guys hit only 31 or 32 seconds but get charged for a full minute. Whereas for regular length shows they'd get charged for the exact amount of minutes and seconds they were in show without rounding. You're absolutely right that the first 30 seconds are not free either way, it's just that it's not billed if they leave before 30 seconds but after 30 seconds it counts. I guess we all just talk in these terms that can be confusing for girls who haven't cammed on SM before and are still unclear of how the rule works as a whole. Thanks for pointing that out!
I think saying "I'm not getting nekkie before 30 seconds" will lose you business because- in addition to all of the reasons the girls posted before me- it breaks character. You are supposed to be the little minx or the hardcore domme or whatever your persona is that can't wait to that these guys private and give them what you promise. By bringing up this rule you are bringing up money and that breaks the fantasy for guys, kills the mood. It shows guys that you're not focused on giving them a good time, you're focused on the clock.
Interestingly, it is much easier for me to do long shows and tease a bunch now that I'm on a site that charges from the second they take you private. I think the pressure of SM and trying so hard not to get ripped off just got to me. It's weird, yeah, but now that the length of my shows doesn't really matter I've gone from 2-4 minute average shows on SM to 10-15+ minute avergae shows now. It seems counter-intuitive but thinking about it too much can make you dwell on it and that's not really a good thing (from my experience). Just have fun!

I'll admit, I really have to be mindful to slow it down when getting right down to business in a private, but in all honesty 30 seconds is not that long, and a reasonable customer (who isn't there to scam you) won't mind that time. Even when moving too fast, I have noticed I am at about 40 seconds when the top comes off. Put another layer on...talk to them and let them answer WHILE moving seductively so you technically are starting the private...Ask if they can hear and see you well. 30 seconds will fly by, and you won't seem to be stalling that way.
