SM has made it clear that they're aware of the glitches; they literally fessed up to it in their last newsletter and gave us a new "Report a Site Problem" form. I highly doubt they're just sitting on their asses not attempting to fix anything.

The only reason I would ever leave them is if the glitches become so bad that I can no longer make money and hit my goals. So far, I have never had even one week where that was an issue.

Really? You mean after YEARS of glitches and blaming performers for the glitches. They only say its their fault now because performers became more vocal about it and made hashtags on Twitter. So yeah they did sit on their asses and do nothing. It shouldnt take over three and a half years to admit you have issues and its your sites fault.

Yesterday I tried recording and once again my bitrate and fps nosedived to 0. I really think there is something to my theory. This has been going on since last Thursday. I reported it.

took a 1.5 month break from SM and now I keep having to connect & recconnect hoping it will fix these issues the guys keep complaining about. My sound goes in and out, the private button doesnt work (and i know he isnt bullshitting cuz they were popping in and out of my room trying to get into pvt), my sound and image is out of sync, im lagging.......and when i checked how my specs are on streamate everything is almost at 100%. sooo....wtf. oh and everyone wants a hairy pussy and i just shaved mine so i could go stripping :-|

Mine does it without recording.

Mine too......the damn glitches have me going back and forth in placement too! I am usually on the first page but I just looked and I was on the 3rd page????

02-28-2017, 12:24 PM
Mine does it without recording.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that it's been happening while I'm recording. Time will tell but I hope it is resolved soon for all of us!

Recently added Streamate as a new egg and ALL my earnings so far have been calculated completely wrong!! Is this normal cos I'm gonna be missing nearly $200! I've emailed support but I'm worried that I'm not gonna be able to get my hands on my money. WTF is going on with this site?! :'(

Giiirrrrrrl. Mine too. I went fron being anywhere on the 2nd - 4th row for the last year+ solid to sliding into the 7th/8th rows as I've had sooooo many shitty days since the glitches started. It'll get better, just gotta keep getting on and putting in that time and plugging away at it to get up there again. I do feel like it's getting better slowly but surely. Hang in there mama.

MissRoxxxie
02-28-2017, 05:00 PM
Are you sure you're calculating it correctly?

Depending on where you live, you should be getting 30% or 35% of your gross earnings for the site. So if someone tips you $100, you keep $30/35. Same for whatever per minute rates you set for your privates and exclusives.

If you're getting less, you may have signed up for a studio which will take more.

Possibly not, I will double check because something definitely isn't right and I definitely didn't sign up for a studio. I'm in the UK.

I don't know if this is a glitch or not but there are times where i am in my chat online and there's practically no one inside my room, then after 5-10 mins it fills up with tons of guys coming in and out, some stay some don't! then everybody leaves and it's all dead again and so on... today sucks :(

Horny
03-01-2017, 06:26 AM
I am having the same thing $7 three hours top page placement I despair its never ever been this bad! Ages of nothing then tonnes jump in and out. Actually made more on other sites which I sit and ignore

Hearing about all the issues...I think I'm gonna pass on getting on SM today. I want a stress free day...for once...so I'll try elsewhere.

Hopefully, one day, they'll fix all the issues.

streamate is giving me like 200 kbps... my internet is fucking good so aint that. i look good on all my other camsites.

ok editing this: now that 0.0 fps 0.04 bitrate shit

lol first time I literally made $0 on Streamate...There is something seriously wrong with the site. I splitcam tho so fuck it.

So I logged intoday and the SMB said the icon was just an icon and there was nothing there to work with. WTF? I didn't delete it. Uninstalled it and re installed and it seems to be working.

~Carmen~
03-01-2017, 03:02 PM
That's very strange Mare. I'm glad you got it working again.

You are right Genoveve, the fps/bitrate nosedive randomly happens and it doesn't matter if you are recording or not. I thought maybe that would be a simple fix but no such luck. I also tried using fml but it did not fix it. Re-booting seems to help for awhile. I am taking your advice about not logging off so often. I am used to logging off for awhile after every show.

Wow tonight is a shit show. I usually end up doing ok but I cant even sit here like this.

I'm honestly considering trying MFC's but it so different than what I'm used to and I wont do free chat shows. Maybe flashes and stuff but I dont know how it would work. I gotta do some research and watch some girls.

Can you split MFC with streamate? Prob not huh..

03-01-2017, 08:02 PM
This week is weird :| Even if I'm not in the best mood I still managed to make over 300 in two shifts on AW but only 10 on SM. I doubt it's my fault in this case.

SM has been a shit show for me for the past 24 hours as well :/ so at least y'all aren't alone! haha
My quality kept going down the tubes for no reason today...
AND one of my custies kept getting disconnected from exclusive D:
C2C also going in and out.
Here's to hoping it gets better asap.

03-01-2017, 08:49 PM
Same here ! SM has been super weird today, I lost a few peeps because of connection issues. My SM Broadcaster wouldnt work properly either , people where saying I was pixelated . It was like pulling teeth out there ... hours of frustration and not much to show for it on the $ department :(

My first hour was fantastic but traffic dropped off a cliff and I lost a stacked pvt wih 2 "user connection errors". HEY STREAMATE:

Camming this morning was just a waste of time, i constantly got lower frame rates with SMB and the picture/video quality modified constantly, this is just crazy beside how dead it is. Ok, logging off now to save sanity.

i didnt work tonight because i was busy installing windows 10 but i noticed 10-11 PST last night (tuesday night) and the night before that (monday night) my feed was going bonkers I use streammates encoder and i saw my rez going smaller and then back to 1280 and my bit rate was bi-polar anyone have any clue what thats all about ?

Horny
03-02-2017, 04:00 AM
So using the encoder or the broadcast i'm on about a thirty second time lag. It doesn't matter what I do. This week has been shocking i'm so fed up no wonder they are coming in out its like i'm ignoring them so bloody annoyed wasting my time on this

DancesWithSloths
03-02-2017, 04:15 AM
^^I've had a bad lag all week too, though with the encoder it's a bit less.

I've started typing "hi" when they first come in, at least it lets them know I'm there! (Hate doing it though, I can't look sexy when I'm squinting at the keyboard.)

Whats the long term plan ladies?

The last few weeks I have done my shifts and it just awful. All week again this week I have done my shifts. Tuesday everything must have been working and made normal money. Monday was poor and yesterday was horrific. Today is terrible as I have a nearly one minute lag in my room and people just leave I have tried typing and using encoder but its still terrible. I was determined to stick it out but this is soul destroying. I'm splitting with AW but this isn't bringing in a touch on what I normally get. I have just added NF too and looking at making clips.

My placement is falling through the floor all though all stats excellent I guess becasue i'm making nothing. Getting ready and sitting here feels like such a waste of time but obviously I have worked hard to get here and can't seriously believe they aren't going to fix all of this.

What is everyone else doing? I can only work UK time 10-2pm so this is morning wood time any suggestions sites to add?

talk to me and my free cams and chaturbate and cams my 5 eggs that i rotate around with are streamate chaturbate my free cams and cams.com for camming and i have account on phone sex with niteflirt and talk to me . i'm in the process of setting up an account on extra lunch money . if u have a strong following on twitter with lots of paying fans consider making a cammodelstore

Horny
03-02-2017, 05:32 AM
Thank you i'm onto those its my own fault I've relied on this too heavily and its a nightmare now. I need to get started on NF and TTM I have accounts but have never really used them. NF boggles my brain but best work it out I guess...

03-02-2017, 07:27 AM
It's beyond a joke right now. I haven't been experiencing the FPS/Bitrate drops that is all over Twitter right now but my traffic has plummeted off a cliff lately and I am seriously thinking about camming somewhere else.

I can't pay my bills with SM at the moment and I am so thankful for my other sites!

Spoke too soon I've been hit by the above glitch in the last half hour (I jinxed myself!) and also WTF is this?!

47562

Where is the old FMS URL and coincidently I was hit by the glitch after being thrown off the encoder and having to log back in, I click start show and that comes up???

03-02-2017, 01:21 PM
It kept showing my bitrate as between 0.02 & 0.05 and then finally it just said n/a.

03-02-2017, 01:45 PM
im logged on, broadcasting but I do not show up online.. I waited 12 minutes. I keep refreshing: logging off .. and back in. No changes.
Last time I emailed support about this they replied after 3 days! im beyond mad right now.
Im using new sm broadcaster.

MistressX
03-02-2017, 02:52 PM
Yeah, I just saw that a few minutes ago. But theyve been saying that for like... 2 years. Still dont have a properly functioning site. I dont have high hopes for today and this weekend. I am gearing up for MFC but I'm not super encouraged about that either since the consensus seems to be on public shows and hardly any privates and I dont do public stuff so... Niteflirt it is lol

TrifilinCamHo
03-02-2017, 02:53 PM
Well this is super encouraging for today. Has SM said anything about any of these issues? Probably not huh... wtf is their problem?I think the mindset is that if there is any transparency whatsoever the models don't log on or work elsewhere, and they don't get their bullshit 65% pimp cut of whatever we can scrape up. History has proven that the only time they ever say anything is when they've been backed into a corner after weeks of radio silence and/or when the site is collapsing in on itself. Streamate does not give a flying shit about their models or our time which I guess is alright when the site is fucking working properly because it's great when it is, but it hasn't been for like 2 months and counting now.

Maybe the people who ultimately make the decisions at sm literally do not need any more money than they already have so the simply don't care about the site so long as it's making enough to keep it out of the red. Look at what iFriends used to be compared to what it is now yet still, iFriends is still up and running and assumably making money.

It's pretty obvious that this is the case. I imagine the response/resolution would be a lot different if their bottom line was actually being affected, i.e. if they actually had to put an effort into things like model retention in order to keep banking. They don't and they never will as long as the money is coming in.

Shut everything down and restart your computer. Other girls are saying this will fix itself after you stream for a bit after restarting.
