No glitches but no money either. I think the past two months have scared all the big spenders off not that I blame them. All I get nowadays are people begging for gold shows and insulting me for my prices. What has happened to this site?
Literally same. It's getting so frustrating that I am legit gonna start building clientele on another site.
We all have bills to pay ~ can't take much more of this.

No traffic today, and the few that actually came in and spoke just wanted 'tease me a little before pvt bb'. Fuck that. Tomorrows a new day.

So now no glitches but the paying customers are gone... not surprised. Streamate doesnt seem to be spending any money getting quality traffic anymore and they've chased off all the good ones with their bullshit. Hope they get their heads out of the sand soon or read the writing on the walls.. I am currently trying to create a profile for MFC and am going to start building clientele over there as well as try as hard as I can to get indy peeps.. we all need a fallback I guess. It just look as though Streamate really doesnt care and perhaps they know they're going by the wayside. Maybe they're just trying to spend as little money as possible before the inevitable happens.
I think this tells it all :(( Not making shit on SM tonite :((

I'm fairly certain I spent as much time logging on and off to try to fix my feed as I did actually online today, even though none of this was my connection's issue. I lost so many potential customers. How frustrating.

Streamate's global traffic ranking is down another almost 1000 places. Just keeps going down. Yet they swear they've fixed shit. At this rate I'll be going back to naked.com lol

I must be on a bad server because my ranking still blows and I know it's not that bad. I can't find myself within the first 8 pages, so I must be buried somewhere. It's NEVER been like this for me before. I'm used to being on page 1. WTF???!
UPDATE: 30 minutes later I'm back on page 1.. Bitrate is the only thing that is taking forever to increase even though the broadcaster says it's 2300, ranking shows me at 300 and increasing slowly every few minutes. .
What tool do you use to give you all these numbers?
I know SM has some numbers, but I don't trust them, as they ALWAYS say I have no volume when I do. Their site is archaic.
Glad you got back to page 1.

Do you mind sharing which site?
The picture quality is changing constantly still, fps's drops, video size drops, it's still the same crap.
"Funny" how they run a contest with these tech issues but maybe the "important" and "relevant" people sit on the golden server u know...

^^Okay I know why it's disconnecting me, I did an experiment and when I move my laptop screen up or down my internet will go from hardwired back to wifi for a sec, which it does when I move my laptop around too, my ethernet port is very touchy. I noticed that a while ago so I bought a new cable in case that was the problem since it was really old but it didn't fix it, it's the port. So yeah in that split second where my connection goes from wired to wifi my SM connection will drop.
i think thats a fairly easy fix for a PC tech to do a bit labor intensive tho i would think because i think they have to open ur laptops casing and have access to motherboard and replace the port . im not sure it can even be done at all but if it can thats what would need to be done. my landlord knows more computers then i do i can ask him if its possible if its something you would want to consider doing
Snowy0Star
03-08-2017, 09:43 PM
^^Nah I think it's easier to just remember to not move my laptop around while I work, or I could try just using the wifi. I'm literally right next to my router and it's very rare for my wifi to drop.
The last time I was working(before today) at some point I noticed that my customers could not hear me, none of them, and nothing fixed it until I switched to the broadcaster. Today at one point I switched back to the encoder, realized my placement was shit and then saw that my rankings said I had no audio. I switched back to the broadcaster and my rankings said I have audio again. I didn't test it out but I have a feeling that audio is just not working with the encoder. Maybe it's because I don't have the newest version of it?
o ok what its worth i just cauoght my landlord walking in home from worked so i asked him about it and he said for like 60-80 $ u can get it resoldered back on

Streamate, you are so dead. I am seriously making not even 50$/dy right now, I am seriously struggling right now. Streamate needs to step up their game. My livelihood depends on them fixing shit
Why do they even think I'm going to entertain "What's up?" kind of guys. All that screams is I'm broke as fuck trolling a paysite to see if you want to Meet up.
PLEASE. Come into my room and say ,"What's up?" so I can just block your stupid ass and get it over with.

I actually appreciate the "what's up" guys, or at least the ones who will chat about whatever instead of launching straight into dirty talk. I find them easier to convert than the "where u from bb" guys, or "do you like young cock" or whatever.
ETA If anyone has a snappy response to "do you like young cock", please let me know, because the real answer is "I don't care for cock, young, old, or otherwise"

Do you guys use Alexa or what do you guys use to check out the traffic?
I'm debating if it is even worth me starting over on SM..I have not been consistent on that site and my money and traffic on there has been shit for a long time because old account/not a lot of favorites... But if the majority of girls' traffic is doing a total nosedive in the LONG TERM (not just a current slump) I don't even know if I care to start over on there.

I was using alexa. Its really a shame how they dont even seem to give a fuck. If we can see their traffic data, they see it too. Maybe they know they're gonna tank and are just riding it out. Who knows? I have to go on later today.. I havent worked all week. Been doing other stuff.... put more eggs in your basket now girls because it seems to m this is finally streamate's death rattle...

They're all going over to ImLive now that ImLive is giving away the house with unlimited viewing of the Strip and Vibe Shows(after the guys refresh their browser).... It looks like they are jacking up their membership number to get the site ready for sale again...I have a funny feeling the the next phase of camming will be the indy girls who just say FUCK the big box sites.

I was having the same issues with my MBP and learned that there is a known software issue that seems like loose hardware but doesn't resolve when you replace the connector board. Try resetting the PRAM/VRAM before replacing ports if you are using an old Macbook Pro like me!

From a sales perspective, imo, the correct answer is "I bet I would like yours, sweety, c2c in private?" Haha.

Probably not what you wanted but to questions like that, IF I respond I'll say something like "I like anyone who spends." Lol.
Yep, that's about what I had in mind.
I sometimes say, "Is this cock attached to a person, or..?" - gets me shows from other people. But I've been making that joke for 2 years now, starting to feel a bit stale.

Yes Yes Yes I've watched the transition for over the last year now on social media. In fact there are new models starting out as Indy performers. They aren't even bothering to sign up to box sites and have no idea how things used to be. They're just out there doing it. I don't agree with the payment methods but it is awesome to watch.

I peeked at a few hosts before I logged in earlier tonight and also yesterday and the whole top row of hosts had a superlong audio lag. They would say something and their lips moved, but the sound followed up to 15 seconds later. I'm wondering if it's the new broadcaster because this happened to my feed too so I had quit using it. Seemed to fix itself as the night went on.
Those who have guys complaining about audio lag - are you using the smbroadcast or FMLE?

i had that issue when it was super buggy about a week ago. i use the SMB but i heard in this thread that is was an issue with the encoder too meaning it was a server issue. im not too familair with this aspect of technolgy but if its a server issue im not sure what the difference would make using one or the other would be.

The audio lag seems to be happening with both the SMB and encoder and seems to be linked to whatever serve you get put on. If they give certain girls premium placement on certain servers as some people suspect... well.. that would explain a lot.

i mentioned it a few days ago in the SM main thread. but it seems like when the rest of us have issues the big wigs "pet favorites" have no issues - they have their rooms flooded with ppl like normal are in back to back privates like normal like nothing is wrong for them. they'll never admit but im damned curius what they look for to get into this elite group.
^^^ Money of course, if u make the big money on site then u have the privilege to be on the 'elite group', if not, u struggle with all tech issues & lack of paying traffic. No matter how hard u try to hustle ur room if there is no paying traffic & u have tech issues that are not on ur side then u have no power simply....
I believe they work on site, if u guys got the email regarding the new changes on site, they seem to focus on Group messages to members and communicating better with members, they also increased size for attachment from 2Mb to 20Mb, so on, they say more in there.
Well, i hope these all will improve things on SM for all of us but who knows? Will have to wait & see....

to me that doesnt make sense (not what u said but their logic in doing it) so what exactly do they do ? if you make enuf when most of their severs arent fucking up they do some shit in the background on ur profile to code it a certain way so when most of their servers are fucking up you get put on a good one so you can continue to bring in those high $ for them? that would entail them up keeping a certain number of severs in good condition? but given that logic why even do that i mean how hard is it to uptake servers and make sure all of them dont fuck up vs a few good ones just for the 'pet favorites"

Well, since I'm a milf whose much older than most guys who come to my room, I get that question a lot.
My answer is the same as it is irl when someone asks.
"I liked young cocks when I was young, I LOVE them now!" Lol
The other day I was expanding on that thought, by mentioning that old dudes and their wrinkly cocks turned me off.
A few seconds later, a guy whisked me into private, turned on his cam, and was as old as the hills. Yuck! Disgusting:geezer::yuck:!
What was even more gross was that he was a cuck, and got off by rubbing 2 big black dildos all over his sad, pathetic dick.
Yes. I was looking at Alexa.

I kind of doubt this was happening though, at least on the days I've seen it happen because these were hosts who are always pulling in money in gold shows and always on the top rows of the site. Of course I don't know exactly what they make but I'm sure it's a lot to be on the top row.
The audio delay was so bad across the board I could not believe any men would even spend money on the site with it like that. Someone new to SM would probably leave and find another website to watch.
At first I thought it was my computer or connection, but I opened a couple of other cam sites and their feeds were perfect.

So if you guys are talking about their Serps, there is no way for them to fix it with the snap of a finger. That's not how SEO works. Google controls EVERYONE'S fate online, unless it's the type of business that does well with Social Media & adult doesn't do well with that, only marginally.
