What's the best way to check if the site is glitchy? I keep getting custs telling me its lagging. Looks good from my side but the video on SMB keeps adjusting size, but the stream health all looks good.
Is it just me? or others lagging also?

Check your streaming from another browser or device and checking other models rooms.

does anyone know what causes bitrate to be all over the place??
mine keeps dropping but my internet seems ok?

if your light settings are on automatic and they change for whatever reason that seems to do it.One of the reason.

I went from making 150-200$ to making 7-40 dollars a day on this website in such a short time WHAT

One week ago when I joined I made a lot more, now everyone seems to have vanished...I hope it picks up!! I don't want to give up on Streamate like I gave up on MFC after going through the same (a lot in the beginning, then total deadness for months until I made 1$ a day and left).

Streamate is the 3rd website I'm trying out cuz I can't make enough on Cb alone and the freeloading became too much for me to only make 1k a month.

I hope I won't have to give up on Streamate like I did on Mfc :( I just have barely any in and outs anymore for sometimes 20 minutes! I use the SM broadcaster but it heats up my computer like crazy and doesn't brings in a lot of traffic like it's supposed to do at all...

Oh well only time can tell if I did the right choice with this website.

Last night was my 1st time back on SM after 6 months. I got a new account and everything. I'm using OBS and it was working just fine for the first two hours. Then after that it seemed to disconnect me every 45 mins or so. I couldn't change my topic or my save texts it was so strange.

Errrrr, is there some kind of placement glitch today? Normally I'm in row 1, but I login today and I'm halfway down page 2 but when I click into my categories, I'm where I normally am for them. I did take a week off for my period, but I've taken a month off before and my placement hasn't tanked THAT much. I emailed support, but what do you ladies think? It's definitely fucking with my earnings right now...

My position was first row and that was a glitch because no one was in anyway and I was showing row 8 for a friend of mine. Im normally rows 3-5. I guess it shows different positions for different users.

Hmm weird. I had a customer check for me and he couldn't find me at all. Anyone else having issues with placement? This has never happened to me before, I took a month off, came back and was still top row. I take a week off for my period and bam, a whole page and a half down....surely thats not right. I see girls take breaks all the time, come back, and they're in their same spot.

It's super frustrating to wait for support as well...they take FOREVER to reply. Why can't we get a chat service like customer accounts do sigh.

When I don't have geoblock on, I see myself in the middle of the first page. I have it on right now so I can't see myself, but I can tell my placement is off. I'm getting no traffic. I'm just running gold shows to get some more traffic but I'm not expecting any GS to go through today. Really frustrating.

YASSSSS I think I'm backkkkkk to the first row.

So on one laptop, it shows me middle of page 2, and on my other laptop I'm top row, using the same customer account..............................wat???.....an d also on mobile, I'm showing as on the second page. This is quite a glitch eh

I've made you I shit you not 0 on SM all week. Now I've been splitting it with other sites so it actually hasn't been a financial burden just a drain of bandwidth but still 0? That's absurd and the amount of guys asking for "dirty anal" when it clearly states I don't even do the regular variety is ridiculous.

There's a lot of talk about "shitholes" in the news lately, so expect an up-tick for that kind of request...

Thank you very much, I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

Man this week, gonna end up 1/2 my normal earnings! Question for you all, does it make sense to show more for free in this climate? Or is it a step back? It seems rough for everyone except for those who show a lot for free. Or maybe it is the tide of 18 year old studio girls? (no hate to them) I am a big believer in pay for play, I make a large chunk of my $ from my tip vibe, but it just seems the tides are changing. My ass is a money maker I don't want to give it for free! I am feeling like a prude at this point, but real money guys don't care. I realize I am just debating myself but I am in a conundrum.

01-13-2018, 03:41 AM
I feel ya! I can't guarantee money making, but if it's fun for you to get up and dance, do it sometimes? But don't do super sexy ass close-ups... I think it's crappy money for most of us these days. You could also try doing cheap dancing striptease gold shows sometimes. Maybe even ask the guys if they'd like privates instead if there's only 1 or 2 tipping, because they might be like "ok" and take you for a private, better than nothing. (I'm still learning all this stuff, too).

My set up isn't right for dancing and I kinda hate it. Also that would show my ass...i have found tip vibe vips want to get you to the "edge" before they take you. The worst part isn't that I am learning, I am feeling old with this new crowd. I know 99% of them won't spend, but the freeloaders do spend sometimes when you show. Now when real men show up who know the game diff ball game. It is just so dead

Edit- I didn't intend this to sound bitchy, but my ass is of the pawg + bubble variety and it is a niche and worth cash, therefore dancing just gives too much for free. I also don't do gs. I would sit with my tits out all day if not for principal of the matter

I think it s just too many new studio girls, i mean... i never seen so many , but I m on Jasmin.However, the ones who was new one year ago - well, they are nowhere now, most of them just disappeared or gave up, after they aint got first places instant. But now , there are more new than ever. This is what i see at least. Pretty annoying, but seems like "studios " make good money with these 1 year-lifetime girls... and i guess there ll be just more and more.
Me too, I wondering what to do, but idk. Stick around however u can, and keep going, than something ll happen. :(

However, I think, in these days, with this studio cancer, it s a big mistake to rely only on big box sites, like Jasmin, or Sm, or whatever. U just can t keep up with these "new girls" who sitting there 0-24 for 1 year, eat shit with a smile, and take first places instant, drinking up all the traffic without effort. At least, on my site, this is what happening, right now.

I took a look on sm a few days ago, it s not that bad. However, just a little bit u scroll down, and u ll see the same studio girls , who sitting on Jasmin forever. At least there, they aint got first places, instant. :S

Just to update you on my placement issue - emailed support, support said something along the lines of: thanks for taking interest in your placement here's a link to learn how to improve your placement. I then emailed back explaining that I know how to improve my placement but I want to know why it is glitched when I view from different laptops/phone etc.

They responded saying, please do this Internet speed test and email back with your results. I explained once again that my Internet is stellar and I am wondering why my placement is showing me out in the middle of nowhere when I am a top row model.

They replied with a blank email. I said your email is blank. They stopped replying.

Thanks for taking my 65% SM, wonderful customer service experience once again. It's comedic really lol. And shit I'm complaining, but I had a great night online yesterday so I think my placement is fine and it was just a glitch.

Also, did my first top spot gs after deciding to opt in. I smashed through the goal they gave me and pulled double, so do they increase the goal after awhile? Dunno how I feel about such a low goal for what I like to think is an excellent goldshow

As some of you may or may not know....If a member is viewing Sm via Chrome then yes the placement is all out of order. I mean really all out of order!! All other browsers are displaying placement correctly except Chrome. Just FYI....

We're checking it out and not seeing it at all.

Here's Chrome and Edge side by side.

There's a few possibilities for this:

1) You're logged on in Chrome but not on other browsers.
2) You've used Chrome to visit model rooms in the past. This "cookies" them as unofficial favorites.
3) You may have a different category selection defaulted on Chrome.

Katy you have to be logged in with a members account to see the placement isnt correct.

You won't match up for sure then. Everyone you visit while logged on is stored and this builds a preferences profile, sort of like how everyone's Netflix queue is different.

You can also try using an "incognito" window, that should do the trick without messing with your other needed cookies.

Anybody having trouble with their keyboard not working after private chats? I also use the break button because I need more than 30 seconds to get put back together...... But yeah, then a guy wants to chat and I can't type.... Have to stop the show and start again. Grrrr

Sooo... I'm sitting in guest/free chat and they keep logging off at the same time, then come back in. So I ask them if they are getting disconnected and they are telling me that it is saying I'm in a PVT so they have to refresh or go out and come back in.
Its been off all week, disconnects, pixelated video, this lags. I've been checking my side and checking everything.
I don't understand how it can just glitch for one of us. Not going conspiracy here, lol but I just don't get it.

JenniTS
01-14-2018, 05:50 PM
Yeah lags here too.... The keyboard thing is what is really getting me because I lost a couple regulars, I don't talk a lot in free because I am still self conscious about my voice, only do it for regulars that are cool. I know, probably not an issue for the rest of you all....

It may just be a browser thing or something, everything else checks out. If I try a different browser, after running CCleaner, and it still happens then it is likely a site issue.

They posted about it on their Twitter just a bit ago. Some people get the bonus this week, others will be next week

Still not seeing my 30% holiday bonus for that week anywhere. I waited until this pay period was over to check, but nothing. Anyone else not seeing theirs? Am I just missing where it's listed? I don't see it anywhere.

Ok so I was about to do the Topspot gold show Aand the producer said the audio lag is really bad, so he cancelled. understandable but the issues are unacceptable.
It just bums me out because I don't get to just log on whenever I want, I have limited windows when I can log on.
I sent them a message, not much I can do now.

Mine got sent out as a separate payment, and in the issued payments tab, it was listed as 'additional compensation'. When it got paid to me it got merged by first choice pay into one payment. Definitely email SM and ask where it is if you don't see it

I didn't get mine either. I messaged Liz last week, and this is what she told me......
She said that in order for me to get the %30 bonus, the amount had to be at least my payout amount. Huh? I thought I had it set to $20, ( and my bonus money was way, way beyond that).
She said that I needed to make my payout amount ( which is set to $200 if I get Fed Ex, which I did the previous week).
I mean, shit! I only worked that bonus week, to GET the damn thing! I don't work that site that much anymore. I just go on to see my regs.
Anyway, I do see they finally added it to the check I will get this week.
You might want to ask Liz, or your rep, because that's probably the sneaky thing they pulled with you too.

Well, shit. That is some sneaky, shady shit. Seems like important information they should have shared with us before that week. If I's known, I would have kept going until I hit that amount. As it is, my 30% missed my oayout amount by $22. So I guess Imm not getting it at all. That oisses me off. It may not seem like a lot to them, but I worked my ass off for it and am counting on it. Glad you got yours, though. Looks like I won't be as lucky. Fuck.

Correction: I misunderstood. Liz got back to me and clarified; it's not that the 30% needs to exceed your payout amount, it's that you need to make more than your payout amount in the following weeks so they have a week they can attach the 30% to. I'll be getting my 30% along with this past week's pay. Hope that clears things up. Did for me.

Yes, that's right. But she also mentioned that I never got it in the first place, because of the accounting department's screw up.
So, let me get this straight. Because accounting messed up, I have to log in the FOLLOWING week and make payout? Even though that wasn't in the initial agreement.
Got it.>:(
