They all have to be from unique customers, no customer can leave 2 separate 5* and that count, if that helps.
I know. They are all unique. It says you just need 5 reviews and I've only had 5 shows.

I finally have 5 five star reviews and I'm still a 4. I only have 5 so.... They must be taking a while.
I had a custy who left a chat and it said network issue last night as reason.
It usually takes 24h for the system to update your stats. It's not instant.
So this is solid proof how some of these guys try to bullshit us saying we have tech issues, when i checked myself on phone and showed him on camera my own stream with perfect sound on phone he backed off that 'all is great now'.
Conclusion -> Never take for granted what these guys say, yes there are tech issues on site but often it's all BS plus he kept calling me mommy then he buggered off pfttt

I love how at the end of telling one dude off you quickly move on to a new visitor.
hi there
This is how it should go. Don't spend too much time addressing the dumb stuff. Keep It Moving!

last two days Ive had a load of "dom" clients (which is fine my favourite shows are sub shows), what isnt fine is the fact they bark orders at me in free with no tip or call me names in free chat. Im fine with that if Im being paid but if Im not Im not submitting to anyone ¬.¬

I've gotten 20 '5 star' ratings in the past two weeks yet my overall rating is not going up. Very strange.

I had this issue a little while ago and Liz said that the ratings are not updating automatically like they should. She said that I would need to get "a few" more ratings for it to update. Eventually I got back up to a 5 star rating, it just took extra long. I know its very frustrating.

Happened to me too, either they cancel it or is a glitch but how can we know for sure?!
I hear the sound then nothing happens, no 30 secs countdown either to get back in free chat so i can only wait to see if people enter my free chat again; sure they can cancel and might do it on purpose to clear our rooms...
New one week contest, sigh!! It's always a challenge for me to work thorough contests cause i cam during nights here and even if i want to take days off i cant sleep. Well, will see how i'll manage things ...

People keep coming in my room, I hear them but I dont see them except their name to the left of the screen. It used to show up in the room and then why the user left but it doesnt even tell you that. I'm using the new beta broadcaster cause its nicer to my computer.

Yes, it's recently happened to me too.
Way back in the day, when cell phones were first being used, it would happen a lot. The connection wouldn't go through, leaving us hanging. I think it's something like that. System wide.

You're using the Chrome Broadcaster? The one with the 'bubbles' around the chat?
If so, the programmers removed all the 'in & out' chat lines because it takes up too much space on the page. The page is smaller, less lines of chat, so if it gets filled with 'in & out' notices, then you can't see the chat of those people who have written something, because it's moved off your screen.
The last time I looked, only actual chat was appearing within the chat area. Rather than having a page full of announcements of who WAS there, but now they're gone.
I prefer it this way, so I can see the guys chat without having to keep scrolling through all the useless 'in & out' clutter.

Last week I had this happen too. When our personalized description doesn't go thru, or is blank, I've noticed it defaults to whatever's written in the 1st lines of our profile info.
Just a glitch? By the end of the week my description was taking what I'd write each day.

Yes! Same here. Last nite was horribleeee slow I thought was me... Because I was checking here and nobody were posting:-[ so I was a bit frustrated. Thx for the updates. Maybe it has to do with the Event March Madness or something. What I could notice was that my customers when entered pvt, they were getting kicked out from the show, excl also, some said that my feed was blurry, pixelated so maybeeee there were some technical difficulties going on. Traffic was good, tons of people but ins and outs, no talks, Nada.Last nite wasn't normal. Let's see if tmrw improve. I'm trying to work hard this week because Next Week is contest so I never make money during it. Hugs.
^^^ ^^^ I was thinking it's me only cause nobody was posting here, i sat online for 2.5 hrs then i could not take it anymore, i was playing online games most of the time just to stay sane cause i felt i was going crazy in an empty room.
Yes, not making money during contests either, not making money before and right after so yeah... whatever...

okay, so within the few minutes it took for me to eat a tuna sandwich, they made it so I can no longer move my stream capture around my SM connect page!!!! (web version) I like being able to enlarge it and move it to the top right of my page!

Hello girls, I don't know if here is the right thread to talk about streamate in general but, what do u think about the new feature of SMconnect? Gold menu. I just saw it and is a nice proposal, I hope just they could let us know when they are working on the website so we dont sit online wasting hours while having technical issues. Lol. Ah also, in the SMconnect, appear my interactive toy connected but not ON, so I wanna know if that status is visible for my customers. Thanks a lot.
^^^ It is! :))
Do you stream when ur toy shows off? Cause only when u stream, have the toy ON and run the application will show ur toy ON.
Also, if u change the toy or uninstall the application or change anything else u need to redo all process in order to add another toy or the same toy, it happened to me, tell us in what context ur toy is off.
I like the GOLD menu idea, i just need to figure out a way to work with it cause of placement issues i talked about a while ago, i loose placement cause it shows i dont stream in HD Wide; now with this option these guys will SEE black on white they have to tip to get something!! Alleluia!!
I wish SM would give us more info of what members SEE on their side, many of us dont have customer accounts and it's important to know what the interface looks like on members side so we know how to work with the tools we have if it makes sense. (if members see i have a vibe toy connected and if the gold menu appears no matter if we have a vibe toy or not for example).
I dont have good regulars to ask them these things cause i never talk business with my customers, it takes away the magic if i start to ask about these things, i dont want them to know the 'kitchen' of model business.

Thanks thanks a lot for the reply. Yesss is really cool that they now have to tip to get something with this Tip Menu, (I always ask for golds anyways for requests) cuz it makes the things easier. But to bad that when I tried the SMconnect, I had Zero traffic so I ended up switching to the old interface. Let's see. (:

I don't think getting more 5 star ratings helps because it goes by your average ratings per day. For example, if you have 2 days with an average of 4.75 and the rest of your ratings are 5's (in a 90 day period), your ranking will show 4.98 until your two 4.75 days drop off.

two gripes: my jive won't connect to sm anymore, but works perfectly fine on every other site. also, the new tip menu in smconnect doesn't show you who tipped if they tip using it. So annoying. I like to thank whoever tipped.
^^^ Aww, of course we need to know who tipped us, come on SM, this is not a good feature if we dont know the tipper and work with this tool properly. I plan to work with SMConnect when u fix the HD wide placement issue.

Can someone please help me? I've been using OBS for awhile now, and it has always worked great. The past week or so, I keep getting dropped frames. I haven't changed any settings or anything. I don't know if it is Streamate or something on my end, but it is getting frustrating. If anyone has any tips or setting suggestions for OBS, please let me know!

Awww ty for letting me know, i'll try it again and let u know how it works for me xx
One more thing, at a point while trying SMC with the vibe toy (OhMibod Esca) the toy was not buzzing anymore even it was connected perfectly while before it was working and buzzing when i got tipped.
I stopped using SMC because of the toy issue and the HD Wide issue, i cam with the new SM Broadcastetr beta since they launched it.
Now my question is, (from members side for who has customer accounts or has the info) has the new Gold Menu anything to do with the Vibe toy interface or they separate?
I wish to know if there is a button to tip and buzz my toy PLUS the new tip menu for requests or its an integrated tip option that includes tips for my toy? Like if u have the toy ONline and u get tips for requests it buzzez the toy too and if no toy u just get tips for requests?
Makes sense?
I ask because i might need to get another toy (same model) and have it recharged for when the one i use now goes empty (it lasts max 2.5 hrs then i need to recharge it). Ty xx

Does anyone know what the room exposure and traffic depends on nowadays? I'm on page 1 (at least from what I see when not logged in), all my ranking stats are excellent, but my potential viewers count is like 10 at most, and I've been maybe getting one random visitor in a few minutes these two months. I'm getting almost no new viewers, and my favourites number is dwindling because of it. There's literally nothing I can improve on my side regarding ranking, other than spending even more time online (I'm doing 9/5 already).
Is advertising offsite the only way to get more viewers in this situation? Asking cause I'm terrible at networking and self-presentation and have no life cause of work already, and advertising would take another chunk out of my sleep time.
^^^ I wish to know this too, i have no clue myself xx
ETA: at least with SMC u dont see the potentials, is it good, is it bad? i was not looking anyway cause on window resize the portion with the numbers was covered and did not like to look cause it gave me more anxiety.

March Madness is properly called that, because every year camming grinds to a halt while the games are going on AND IT DRIVES US TO FUCKING MADNESS!!!
We know guys can't do 2 things at once. Stroking, popping off & watching sports at the same time. *
That's why SM is offering that stupid contest all next week, so we log on for whatever crumbs we can muster during an impossibly slow period.
Best of luck, ladies & gents!
* Plus kids are home on Spring Break. Anytime kids are home, the man of the house isn't going to have privacy for fapping with us. Instead his free time is taken up with betting on MM, or honey-do lists of family time.

I don't think the contest it's related to March necessarily. SM runs this specific 1 week at the end of every month (almost, sometimes they have multiple short contests during that month and they decide to skip it). But look at past contests, you can see the pattern. For example, last year was 25 March - 31 March. Then for April they had 29 April - 05 May. Then May was skipped. But for June it was 24 June - 30 June. And so on. Usually, they respect the "tradition".

And I will work til I complete those dollars and take the rest of my week free from streamate to get back on, the first days of april. Wondering how will be during Easter week. Jumm
I totally forgot the SMConnect works only with Party chat, i looked up to see if they added the regular chat and nope, nothing as an option to switch.
I cant sell my shows in Party chat, i am the model type that sells individual shows.
Went back to SMBeta so i can make some money even is soo dead, i mean i get people in my room but looks like everyone is new and dont spend?! In & out a lot, some talk and say they wanna come pvt but nothing happens, no tips either... i dont know..
