Hmmm, it just took me like 10 minutes to get the site to work, the flash wouldn't load my page & that was in 2 browsers. :(

Also, I think (I'll have to test again) that they changed the popup where you get the guys' ID numbers. It requires widdening it a lot more now

Can someone please explain to me how seeing how many potential users are in our rooms will help us if we can NOT talk to them? I think the notice said we can't talk to them right? LOL Maybe I misread.

Simona: I just pay for private on other site with you and got rip off
Simona: That is why I'm trolling around and finding answers to see if I am been rip off as other people are using your links to rip decent user interface to scams like me off
Simona: I'm going to request a report a I don't feel safe on here sorry ��

OMG.....that mother fucker is a troll!!!! He was just in my room too...here's what he said to me before I blocked his ass:


Simona: How many webcam are you on?

Simona: You on over five different webcam sites



Simona: Which one is real you!
I think someone is using your webcam as decoys for own gain or something else sinister

Funny thing is, he was ALMOST right but I am on 6...so what did he fucking do...google me?

I'm using SM Broadcast, does anyone know why it doesn't recognize my cam as being mirrored? I prefer it to be mirrored all the time, so I set it as that in the Logitech settings but SM Broadcast only shows regular perspective. Is there a way to get around this?

I haven't been on SM for a couple months but a reg was writing to me because he really wanted a show. I went on today just to see him and things were going great until he opened up his cam and he suddenly was disconnected. I wrote to him and asked what happened and he said everything froze when he opened his cam and he hasn't been coming on SM lately because of that reason.

Way to go SM! another guy that was fun and spent a lot of money is now gone along with about a dozen others that used to be regs. I'm going to have to find a way to see him on another site.

I just wish you could turn off freechat on sm *sob*. I could hack it for so much longer then.. Can do 8 hour slogs on non-free chat sites if needed but only last a couple of hours on SM and it sucks! I mean the rates we have to charge, too, just suck.

Excuse the rant; I just keep plugging away with this site as I know there's money to be made here as so many of you use it as your main site..I have the odd good day but overall it's just..nope. :/ X

I haven't quite got the hang of "ignore free" style. I know some ladies say they just sit and watch TV but I think I'd feel self-conscious if I was on cam at all..I guess I could just aim the cam at my boobs and say nothing..I am just worried me sitting there uninterested would put people off..mind you, I have yet to experiment!

streamate isn't letting me click the accept nadia systems thing so I can't stream.

Is this a browser thing, a mac update issue, a keyboard issue or a streamate issue.

You know things suck when its been days since you got a pvt. I was starting to think there was a glitch but I finally got 2 pvts today, so no glitch things just incredibly suck. Like what kind of shyt is that....being happy to get a pvt after like 3 days(maybe more I think I lost count) of nothing.

Smfh, I went from making $100 a day and then finally after years of perfecting my hustle, upgrading, and trial and error I was able to make $200 a day then $250-$300. A first it was taking me 8-12 hours to make $200+ but once I perfected everything I was about to make it in under 8 hours. As soon as I was getting to my peak everything went to shit. Now I can't even make $100 a day. TF is wrong with you SM. I was barely breaking $20-$60 a day after this Nov-Dec, now I can't even get tips or pvts. Hey SM can you #MakeSMGreatAgain that would be appreciated but I won't hold my breathe. :( I just want the old thing back.

Try a different browser, if that doesn't work try restarting your computer.

Adobe flash player settings. If you are streaming from the built-in broadcaster you have to allow naiad systems access to your camera and microphone. Besides cookies I think it also saves your room topic and other settings so that you don't have to re-enter them every time you stream.

There's a woman in my category who has her cam pointed at her crotch or boobs at all times, saying nothing. I have to assume she's making a living, cos she's been there for years.

Personally, I make more in 2 hrs of treating my free chat like a night of pub banter than in 6 hrs of sitting there silently, for the simple reason that I don't have the patience to sit there silently for 6 hrs. Tried it - can't do it. I need the stimulation of nattering about this or that. BUT the key for me is not to talk to blokes I would likewise ignore in the pub. Being weird, creepy, predatory? Get tae fuck. Talking to me like I'm a human being? By all means, stay and chat.

That said, by all means experiment with different camming styles. You put some off, you charm some... eventually the right guys find you, if you just find a way to keep yourself happy and entertained until they do.

PS If it's completely empty and nobody is talking, play a puzzle game in another window with running commentary. Scrabble is always good. "Crap, I've got a terrible hand. What word can I make out of XYZ? How about... Hmm, no." Eventually one of them will speak up.

YES. THANK YOU.

So, I'm about to sound real obnoxious and bossy and like I'm trying to to tell people how to cam when the general consensus is that there is no "right" way to cam. But seriously: you need to pay attention to Guest Chat and interact with those in your room because duh, they are potential customers. Why would anyone feel inclined to pay for a show with a model who seems disinterested and unwilling to engage right off the bat? Free chat is the worst and a tremendous energy drain but you WILL make more money if you put effort into it.

TrifilinCamHo
08-08-2017, 01:33 PM
I'll pass. The more I ignore my room the more $$$ I make.

Really? I'm not questioning your honesty, I'm just surprised and super jealous. I make next to nothing when I ignore my room, and if you look at Top Models' rooms on any given site they are all interacting with their customers. You might be an anomaly but I also could be wrong.

08-08-2017, 02:04 PM
Thanks for the imput on that, guys! Like Sloth, I tend to engage and burn out pretty quickly as I am used to having free chat disabled.
Similarly to Genoveve though, I tend to kick silent lurkers, especially when I talk and type to them specifically to say something..it's just too rude for me otherwise.
I'm hoping I'll work out something which I can sustain for loner periods..I'd like to be on SM for at least 4 hour before breaking, but I think my limit at the moment is 3. I also find if I do have a little break it is impossible then to reconnect and find it unbearable..ugh!

I have a HP and use Windows 10 and use the Firefox browser and last night while I was broadcasting it suddenly stopped working. Then I couldn't get it to stream or load any rooms. I ended up switching to chrome, it also works on explorer too, but I love my firefox damnit. Tried clearing my cache and even refreshing firefox browser and starting from scratch. Still won't load....wonder why.....

Making a living depends on how much the cost of living is where she is located and how much she needs to live comfortably, depends on the drive and motivation and honestly that model's health too!
Nothing against you or your post, its just that I have heard someone close to me telling me the same thing, exact same thing and it is not true. Just because a model sits there almost in the same position for 5 years does not mean she does great $ wise on that site. I just don't like when people assume things. In general. Good or bad. I know it is human nature, it just bugs me :).

I also confirm the ignore/cam on the boobs method. I was the rowdy party style girl for years on SM and make WAY more now that I don't show face (most of the time) in freechat. I also tell them ill show it on my own time, and to stick around if they want to see it if they ask too. Im really chatty though whenever someone comes in, but will absolutely not force it or greet everyone in the room anymore. I have between 50-100+ on my "potential" at all times (it came back) and I just set with it focused on my boobs, so I can open a different tab or watch TV thats muted. If I dont, Ill simply burn myself out/get frustrated.

Yes today was slow on sm for me as well. Worked 4 hrs made $78 .. there is nothing else we can do but work our hours then take a break and log back in.. Yesterday was slow for me as well but I put 10 hrs in and made $715 across all sites. Worked 10hrs on sm and made 386. You have to split cam and just put the hours in. Aint no Calvary coming to save us. We have to save ourselves.

If my regs can get in and stay then WTF is going on with the others, they can't all find my grotesque?! :D

By the way I second the ignore everyone unless they speak to me first I would burn out a hell of a lot faster every day and log off sooner if I was forced to say 'hi x, hello y, how you doing z' all shift like I've seen other girls do.

The silent hustle has always worked for me. Right now there is no hustle because they don't stay put long enough to even breath in to speak lol.

I need to start splitting. I get 10FPS on Chaturbate, and its the only other cam site Im willing to split. My internets not good, but I get 4 upload, so I'm convinced its on their end. There's even something about it in the FAQ's and Ive emailed them 2 times, and nothings changed. TBH though, I have almost 100K "favorites" on SM from YEARS of building. Everytime I think about building on another site, I get discouraged. It took me a LONG time to get regs on SM and to be completely honest with you, most of them are still around. XD -

Mmmmmmk BB. I've worked I'mLive and I sorta get what you're saying (their free chat IS the living worst. Actually, ImLive as a whole is the living worst). But I'm specifically talking users in Guest Chat on Streamate. I don't know how everyone is finding the notion that one might want to pay attention to prospective customers with registered credit cards so outlandish and offensive. This is a job and it requires effort. Butttttt by all means just continue to ignore customers and/or treat every single one like a garbage freeloader. I mean, they ARE basically obligated to throw money at you because you're totally entitled to it just for showing up, right?

Why are you knocking someone's hustle? If a chick can ignore customers on cam and pay her bills, then more power to her. Ignore cam and even ignore phone lines are poppin' right now.

PS - ImLIVE is a shitty site because it uses your ideology of chatting up guys in free chat. Customers tend to *ignore* the fact that they are there to spend because we give them too much attention for FREE.

Now, I'm not saying that everyone should cam in straight bitch mode . . . But for the most part we can all agree that putting on a smile and occasionally saying 'Hello' is more than enough in freechat.

Save the rest of that energy for the $penders . . .

Mmmmmmk BB. I've worked I'mLive and I sorta get what you're saying (their free chat IS the living worst. Actually, ImLive as a whole is the living worst). But I'm specifically talking users in Guest Chat on Streamate. I don't know how everyone is finding the notion that one might want to pay attention to prospective customers with registered credit cards so outlandish and offensive. This is a job and it requires effort. Butttttt by all means just continue to ignore customers and/or treat every single one like a garbage freeloader. I mean, they ARE basically obligated to throw money at you because you're totally entitled to it just for showing up, right?


Thats not our job. We pay cam sites to send us quality traffic and there shouldnt even be free guests period. These cam sites have a ton of freeloaders because the sites cater to every broke fuck known to man. If a person wants to check out a site, have a weekly paid trial they can buy. Have guests set to not be able to talk because a lot of them are beggars. If you ever look at the conversation rates of guests to paid site members across the board, its very low, less than twenty percent.

If you are referencing me you made incorrect assumptions about my mindset on cam.

I wasn't referencing you nor was I knocking anyone's hustle. Good for you if you can bank ignoring your chat. Seriously. If you take a look a look at the top models on any given site like 99% of them are interacting with customers. It is not crazy outlandish nor insulting to suggest that if ignoring guest chat isn't helping you bank you might want to switch it up, pay attention and perhaps have a different attitude towards the people you're tryna finesse.
