I'm at 0 so far. Been on for over two hours. Only in and outs. I have the feeling that they can not see me but when I check my stream it looks good. Only 2 guys said Hi in these hours, how can that be possible? None of these days was good but starting yesterday I only get in and outs. I'm getting depressed.

I'm having major audio issues so maybe that's what's going on for you and not picture quality. When I can get someone to talk which is rarely they are saying my voice sounds like it's coming through a tunnel and that the sound in the background is like it's really windy.

have you checked to make sure the correct microphone is set up in whatever streaming program/broadcaster you use? The tunneling effect you described is what happens to me if my A/V settings accidentally switch to the built in laptop microphone instead of the Logitech webcam mic. It often happens after I restart my computer or if I've unplugged then replugged my webcam in.

Sound was ok. I only got a regular in my room last night, this week I haven't seen any of them, and he was in and out too. A few times entered and left. I asked what was wrong but haven't got any answer. He eventually quit :(
I rarely complain for glitches as I didn't really have them much but now I'm convinced that something is fucked up.

hello, well, yesterday by miracle the platform was working fine on my end, zero disconections etc but today i dont know how it will b bcause still i havent gone online but one thing is the lack of traffic. Is really slow so is silly if i have a site working prefectly and no people comming, really i dont know whats worse. Ugg

Why has the site been running like utter shit the past few days? Had a huge influx of good traffic, and ended up losing half the fuckin shows due to freezing, c2c not working, user connection issues, etc. I mean its almost unworkable, which is awful cause i could have fucking BANKED this afternoon. For as much goddamn money as we make those fucks, you would think they would want their site to actually...function.

It's not always the site. Sometimes it's trolls. Some guy just told me he wants to go exclusive but not seeing the Exlcusive option. I told him he has to spend at least 5 gold to see the Exclusive option. He didn't so I BLOCKED.

When it says 'user connection issue' every other guy, and a guy has to come back 3 times to finish a pvt that keeps freezing, its most definitely the site.

It could be that the guy has shitty internet. Especially if he keeps coming back he probably knows his internet is slow and thats why he keeps trying to make it happen.

If he were the only one, then yeah, id vouch for that. But its been an absolute glitchfest since I have been back from vacay. Maybe its my internet running shitty tho, since everyone else seems to think its a million other things other than SM possibly running shitty.

im actually surprised more people aren't talking about it. Though this site seems to have a lot less traffic than it used to years ago. So that speaks for itself.... I cant talk though... I barely post anything

Well I'm just frustrated cuz I still haven't gotten paid from the FCP ordeal.
SM said they would have cards end of may/june. If they put that out and something gets delayed or changes, why can't they inform us??
Just communicate.
The only other place I could go was paxum, and they had me pay for a card, $5 for card, $95 for express shipping. That was in June. early June. They haven't processed or printed yet.
I haven't wanted to go on sm because I just get pissy. I work, sm gets their money, if I transfer it to Paxum, they get THEIR money. meanwhile I sit here going deeper in debt, with my RL income not covering even half of my monthly.
I wish SM would call Paxum out, speak up for us, have a rep contact them and get them to at least tell us wtf is going on. Of course sm isn't communicating on this either.
Anyways I don't usually vent but figured what the hay.

last time sm promised a card it was August, after they asked for kyc documents. I don't believe their bullshit. Traffic goes to their studios and models with exclusive contracts and they kick indy models because of sm ETERNAL glitches showing private sessions in public. They bully models on twitter with their aggressive posts, even if models are not employees. It's not the same site it used to be few years ago, I'm sure they sold to some crappy company and the boss is definitely not a woman, unlike legend says. They just think we are all idiots not deserving any respect, despite leaving 70% cut (all non usa models get 30%)

I just got tired to vent and complain, it's not doing me any good, things dont improve anyway but getting worse; the other nite i was cut off 3 times in an hour time and right when i just got a guy in pvt, was my 1st pvt for the nite and i got cut off, the guy tried to get back in and was not able to.
Last nite was terrible again, i was on page 6 for guests and page 9 for logged in members, had a friend checking my placement with her account. Everything was Excellent in my Ranking page so it was not me! Even all is great here on my side i often get on page 6 (9) and it says in my ranking page i dont stream in HD, No Sound, No Wide screen even all parameters are perfect here.
What to say about the non existent traffic, glitches and non stop contests?! I AM TIRED to fight the system!

Hi Kat, I posted a few days ago that when Im streaming, i get cut off one or two times a day¡ during privates and is anoying af. I just wonder whyyyy this is happening to me. Also, frame/second go out of control and I make imternet tests etc but the results are always good. I called to my internet provider and got the same answer as always: internet is working correctly". My pc is in great conditions so is not that. Anyway, have to deal with this stupid problem til SM fix their site. Pray pray.

What is "good" though? Any time my upload speed drops to under 10mbps the SM broadcaster will start dropping my fps, even if just drops down to like 9.14mbps.

Apart from a slower than usual delivery of their new temporary card (which was expected considering the circumstances), I haven't had any issues with Paxum. I've used the card at least 60 times for POS and online shopping without a single problem. The only difference now is that I have to request my card transaction details, which I do once every 2 weeks, and it takes a couple of days to have them posted on a ticket.

Just lost two potential shows in my first ten minutes on because it keeps freezing. I dont understand why SM wont address or fix their shit. THIS is why traffic has been slow af on SM this week, because they dont give a fuck how their site runs. At all.

Tips are in GOLD, which is whatever currency the customer is in. Some guys tip in £ / € / $ so his currency is worth less than the US dollar.

I believe private / exclusive rates are US dollars converted to his local currency, so you shouldn't lose out any money doing private shows.

Tips in SM are depressing. A guy tips USD 32 last night and I only get $9.60. As this is a venting thread - that stinks big time. Tips should be paid out at a higher percentage. The guy tips ME $32 and SM gets $22.40. wtf!

Yep, we're on the same commission rate: 30%. That has always been depressing, but more so when you get tipped. You don't notice it so much for small tips, but it really hit hard on big tips.

Has any of u guys signed up for the new SMPay?
I closed my local bank account & their card i used to cash money from Paxum (i used this option when CosmoPay got out money stuck in Secondary balance for a week a while ago); i cash my money using CosmoPay card now but i am nervous to only have a payment option.
I wanna sign up with SMPay considering i only cam on SM and their card is cheaper ($13) than a Paxum card which is $45 & takes months to arrive.
I am eligible for SMPay so yeah, i will go for it and once i have the card i'll use it, just wanted to know what u guys think about this option xx and ty!

I applied, got verified and my card shipped today. Should be here in 3-5 business days.

€800 withdraw, 3 withdraws per day, so max €2400 daily. No other commissions. But I'm curious about the conversion rate ($ to €).

I want to give this a chance because I'll sleep better at night knowing I'm being paid directly, not through a 3rd party. At least I know SM won't try to scam and run with my money.
