^ Eek, that sucks. I hate how hard it is to get rid of guests! They had a girl popping into tons of rooms advertising Skype shows for weeks... haven't read the forums much lately so IDK if they ever got rid of her but it just goes to show how bad they are at managing the guests.
The good thing is that you know to expect it so you can prepare yourself. Treat it like a joke. "Oh hey, Pastor Perv! Back again, huh? Well, better me than little boys I suppose. You know masturbation's still a sin even if you preach while you're doing it, right?"

Yeah, the guy just ended up giving up after about 10 minutes of being banned back to back lol
I'm thinking of adding some of my collection of videos to my imlive account, it sucks that they each have to be apart of some fetish I've established myself apart of first.

Earlier today I glanced at my ImLive messages, and saw that I had several unread messages from even like 2011 and 2012. How is that even possible? These messages didn't appear bolded in my inbox before, so wtf? It was just guys trying to give me their phone numbers and bs like that. One of the messages was from some idiot who simply said "How you not gon be online?" *facepalm* Um...what? It's called having a life outside of the cam sites, fuckwad. Try it sometime...

You could use a splitcamming program to upload some of your videos into your regular professional videos library instead of the fetish video part. Just choose a video file as your source in the splitting software, and the splitting program as your source in the imlive video record page. (Manage your profile/record-edit video library). Best of luck to you!

^^^ Yes, free text chat window on the right side is made for when models are in Private chat mode only, this setting is since IML inception, in between free video chat was introduced so when u work free chat mode u talk with people on the left chat window & should ignore people in free text window on the right.
Why they keep this setup still? Cant tell but it has to do with programming i guess, SM has free chat open too when models are in private so people can still enter ur room. Exclusive kicks everyone out on SM same like on ImLive, iml have true private video as well where only a member can join paid video.
It's $6/min fix rate, i was once taken true private there, could not believe it, it'a rarely used i bet.
Does ImLive still have an exclusive chat for $6 a minute? and what do they call it if so?
I can't find it anywhere. some guy was asking me about it.

Nope, the exclusive chat for $6 a minute does not exist anymore . It has been a feature available for sexier members only .

Maybe try a different browser? Ive seen many hosts saying the same thing you did about their messages, and changing to a different one seemed to solve it for some people...you might have to videochat in one browser like IE, and do messaging in another, like chrome to make it work, lol..good luck to you.

IML has def gone to shit lately. I mean, I was never really a fan of it but I've sat in free chat for a total of 4 hours (in a few days) this week so far and it was dead moneywise.

No. The other day I was worried that a customer was gonna rate me poorly because I refused to "fuck that pussy harder" when he told me to. Lol. But the way ImLive has it, I don't think there's any way for you to tell which customer rated you poorly (like if you had several customers within the same day, and wanted to figure out which one it was). I know that on Streamate you can easily go back and look at who rated you what. But I think on ImLive it just shows you what your average star ratings are for service, appearance, rate of return, attentiveness, overall rating, and beneath that is a list of all your review comments.

"Get an EXTRA 10% added to
your earnings!
All you need to do is:
1) Be online in Private Chat with Guests, Happy Hour, or FLC for 60 hours between June 2nd and June 11th at 11:59PM (ET).
2) Earn at least $100 during the campaign.
For example: If your earnings during the campaign are $200, you will get an EXTRA $20 (10% of $200) just for reaching your targets."
Thoughts?
Personally I think the fact that they have to stipulate the $100 minimum--for 60+ HOURS OF WORK--says a lot.
kortneykay
06-02-2014, 08:39 AM
Again, sites that use promos like that tend to use them to justify their lack of paying traffic. It doesn't fix the problem and they end up losing money. 60 hours on a dead site for 10%, I dunno about that. I might go for it because I'll be splitting anyway and need to put in 40 hours but this does say a lot about this site. I just don't get why they'd rather bribe us to come online when all they need to do is spend more money and educate themselves more on bringing good paying traffic so we both win.

Personally I have my rates at 3.80. Tried 4.80 and it didn't work out so well. I'd try 3.80 (if that's the max you can do) and work on getting your rating up to 5 stars. Happy Hour may or may not help with this--you'll get a ton of ratings from it but they could be good or bad, and IME the less a guy pays for a show the harsher he'll be in rating it.

I think Imlive's goal during this new campaign is to bring more girls online this summer. I personally think that 60 hours/ 10 days sounds pretty damn good. Only 6 hours of work and in the end you get an extra 10% , that's not gonna hurt me. Of course I am not very excited to spend many hours in Free Live Chat, however if the traffic is great this weekend I am going to get a real nice bonus ;D
Happy Summer! woohoo :-*

Even if they were offering 100% I couldn't sit in free chat on that site for 60 hours. It'd be taking my attention away from sites with paying traffic. I do work the site but only splitcamming for side money.

Run them as my second site when I split. I do okay there, I cam mornings.

Since doing very well on SM for the past couple of weeks, I'm pretty much done with imlive.. Can't charge much to make anything and the beggars are hell. What's funny is that I JUST missed the $50 min on there last pay period by like $0.30 and it's been moved over to this one lmao...
Guess I can suck it up and do one last show on there to get my last little bit of $ from there.

06-24-2014, 09:52 AM
I made it, bbs, I fucking MADE IT! :D Okay, kk, it's not even that serious doe, hehe. I clicked the "pvt" button in my room and sat there for about an hour and then I talked to a friend that choose "regular" option on her end so I did the same and BAM had privates. Weird. Anyway, I love the silence of having no guests to try to convert or converse with and I even got my first tip item thingymabob the guys can give you which was awesome. I put my rate back at $5.80 so I'm just chillin' now and happy to be able to use IML as another paid only option. Took me long enough!

Congrats Kortney! I'm trying to get there myself. Lmao, I hopped on IML for the first time in forever and right now I have 85 guests in free chat, no one with credits and no one talking. Welcome back me. I did make $36 right off the bat from my awesome reg though so that was nice.
Maddie67
06-29-2014, 09:48 PM

06-30-2014, 09:59 AM
What's strange is that I make the same amount if not more than I did when I was in FLC. I also put up a teaser video of me in various *cough* positions and fetishes so that when the guys hover over my photo they'll be pushed just a bit to come in my room. I had a reg pop in and out and do 6 shows with me back to back. I bet I'd get even more guys if I go down to $4.80 but I don't wanna :D

You have to close your current account with them when you transfer in and begin with a new one. However, you can technically temporarily pause free chat the second you log into video chat and stay there if you want. You have have to remember to repause it after a private since it will take you back to free chat after those three min are up afterwards.

Thank you, RaeRae. I had just found the post saying that you have to restart on ImLive. So I'm gonna have to pass then. I'm not willing to deal with free chat at all...even if it's this temporary pause thing.

Yep that sounds about right, on slow days 1 hr really equals 8. We've all been there.

Just had a meeting with Chloe, a few hosts, a technical person, and thought it might be nice to share the information with you all about a new feature coming out.
Not sure If we're supposed to let the cat outta the bag :-X , but as you know text chat is gone... that left space for a new feature in our host page. Happy hour is getting a revamp !!! thank goodness. The percentage is the same as what you are currently earning, but the amount is 75-300 earning potential I believe, so $6 for a whole hour won't be happening any longer.
It almost seems as if the testing being done on the site is what derailed alot of things as far as functionality goes because this feature has been under construction for 3 months and that is around the time when we were having problems camming on imlive. It may be out in a few weeks, because they have actually set a deadline for the coding.
I know many of you are on imlive because it is not tip based. However, many sites are now this way and imlive may be following suit in some ways. As far as we know, this feature is like a mix of cam connection and streamate and will not be replacing flvc. It's supposed to inspire you moreso than the current happy hour because there are themes and activities involved that can be chosen at the hosts discretion. The new feature has only those who direct you to see your show and ratings from them using this feature have their own category (like responsiveness, etc have their own rating) so no more "She asked for tips 1 star!" showing up in your reviews.
We haven't done happy hour for obvious reasons... but after this comes out, we might actually participate. It kindof sounds fun. There are areas in which you can do the activities of your choosing. A gym for example might be an option and then there are activities like yoga and weightlifting or you can make your own. We're still not clear on how you set your goals of what you will do if they reach it, but we do know that even if they leave, you will be able to keep what you have earned.
The high tippers names will appear on the screen and hopefully cause tipping wars. there will also be an option to mute all of them if you don't want to see what they type (finally). It's a once a day thing just like happy hour is, but the minimum will be $10 instead. When you reach over $100, your placement on the site will be in a top spot for 24 hrs.
I brought something to their attention and actually saw the coder writing down our suggestion. Since there will be more members viewing and tipping and hanging out, the capping will likely get worse. I suggested a watermark of the hosts name or imlive to reduce reuploading. He said An imlive watermark may not be possible since they have thousands of affiliate sites and their name might be an issue but at least we got an answer, and quickly at that. They may change things around before releasing it, so don't quote any of this to be 100% accurate, but it is something that will be released soon... so I hope all the kinks are worked out.
Hope all you hosts are doing well, and I'd love to see what your opinions are on the sparse(sorry) details of this new feature.

^ my thoughts on this are why i dont like gold shows its the token site hustle witch is a lot harder and a lot more energy u have to put into it for it to work for a very little percentage . u might as well go on a token site and make it work for u if u wanna do things like that IMO. How is it guaranteed $75-$300 if u do it?
CummingCouple
07-08-2014, 02:08 PM
It's a minimum and maximum that can be charged for the show as far as we know, so hosts would make 30-35% of that depending on what their current percentage is. Yeah, the hustle is hard on tip sites and the capping is equally as annoying so we'll just have to wait and see if this is a good thing or not.

The new Happy Hour sounds... interesting, I guess. As someone who pretty much never does HH lol. But can I just say how sick I am of private-based sites' slow conversion to tip sites? It's irritating that they're pandering to the cheapest guys and I don't know what they expect to get out of it. I highly doubt any girls who like doing tip shows will switch over to IML given that IML's percentage and traffic suck compared to all the current tip sites and I doubt this half-assed approach is going to attract any new customers either. And isn't part of the draw for HH that they can "test drive" a girl for 2 min at a time? With a pre-planned show that draw goes away.
Sorry, I know I'm being negative as fuck, I just get really pissed off whenever a private-based site takes another step toward being a public show site, no matter how small the step. (See: SM's $0 gold shows)
EDIT: However, re-reading it I'm excited for some of the changes such as the new minimum, ability to silence all guests and (this one in particular) how only directors will be able to rate/review. Most of my apprehension toward HH is related to bad ratings... even though I've never gotten one to my knowledge but I largely do pvts and IME the cheaper the show the pickier the guys. So maybe this isn't all bad. IDK. I just really hate tipping sites and I get pissy when one of the only largely pvt-based sites left makes changes like this.

Wait a minute. Is that $100 the total or just our cut? Because with the cap at $300 it would be impossible for someone to make $100 at 30%. Vets/HOF could just make it at $105.
apryll11
07-08-2014, 03:59 PM
Im a little confuse on how HH will work. Are the guys gonna pay for the full hour and that's why we get the increase? or are we just getting a cut of the money they already pay per min?
JaneBurgess
07-08-2014, 05:01 PM
I agree. Why not just go on a token site and get paid 50 percent? Many sites are doing this and overall it doesn't work very well. It starts out really well and then kinda dies but it brings in cheap traffic.
