^I spoke with Catalina a few days ago. They are still working on it. She didn't have an exact date for the recovery, but said soon. How soon, have no clue. I'm hoping no more than a couple of weeks.

I would assume it's birocracy in the middle. Fucking papers.

Update: Big changes of receiving the funds this Friday. Fingers crossed!

Did you guys ever get this fixed? I got a brand new Esca and it works fucking amazing with the OhMiBod app so I was super excited to use it to generate tips. I downloaded Streamate's app and then connected it to the site with the scan code. It said my toy was connected and everything but guys were tipping and it didn't vibrate. I'm pretty mad because I got this toy specifically to use on SM. Also, my bitrate drops on SMConnect to like 1000 whereas it's about 3600 when I use SMbroadcast (which also means my placement is better with SMB) so I know my internet isn't the culprit. I've heard the SM staff talking SMC up in their podcast but I just cannot seem to get it to work the way I want it to to save my life.

I've been having toy connection issues as well. for some reason smconnect will not connect to my jive anymore (which i replaced just to make sure it wasn't the toy). works perfectly fine using the same app on all of my other sites, so it's definitely on their end.

So, let me show you something. I'm on page 1, middle of the 2nd row. Here's my ranking stats.
51136
And this here is the kind of traffic I'm getting, an half an hour or so into a session.
51137
I streamed for 12 hours yesterday and the day before yesterday to barely get to my low goal, and I streamed for 15 hours today to not even get that.
Can't Streamate just have some damn respect to someone working this hard? I'm fucking done with them.

Fuck that's bad. I thought it was me! Been online for a good while now and nobody in my room! Not 1 person! Also, before I was able to connect it kept telling me that I had no connection. Wtf is going on?

Something is def. up. I came back from my mid-day break and went almost 15 minutes with not a soul in my room, after an already completely dead morning as well. Not an in an out, nothing, in that 15 minutes. I took that as a sign lol. Not today, Satan lol. Logged tf off.

I just checked, i sat for an hour, it seemed that a very few stragglers would make their way into the room,, and even then once I got a show it would freeze after a minute or two, big lags, and delays. ☹️

Well, I just started streaming this week (monday, tuesday) and the site was working Well, but yesterday night around 10:30 pm went down, then just ghost traffic was comming to my room,that is the one that pop in and out with no words, no nada, is dam weird how this kind of traffic come in waves, but is like having nothing. I logged off. Today I havent tried yet but reading here and also in another forum of some other webcam girls from other countries, the website is not working correctly for them either. Also Chaturbate.

Streamate has been weird this week for me too. I sat for 10 mins with no one in my room. I now bring a notebook and other things to do while I sit there. I understand playing on your phone can look bad, but its been so dead. However I want to make the bonus this week.

You can look to see when the contests are scheduled. They are pretty consistent every year. Go to past contest results and you see the same time frame year after year.

I am really confused about the "best three days" contest ranking. Since this is now my fourth day working, I figured I had to make more than my "best worst night" from the other three days before I started moving up in the ranks again - if that makes sense. But I started moving up in rank as soon as I started making money tonight.

Is this a glitch/mistake, or am I just not understanding how the ranking works?

Nope. It's really bad for me. I'm page 1 of Foot Fetish and I have hardly any traffic at all. I've had two super short exclusives and that's it. I've been on since 8am and it's 12:30pm now (granted I took an hour break). But SM is totally dead over here.

I keep checking my stream to see if it's even working LOL. WTF is going on? This is almost maddening.

Its like that everywhere. My skype has been just as dead this week, but at least there i dont have to sit on cam making sure i look good. I have been on SM for about 2 1/2 years now and this is the deadest it has been for me, personally. I have never before gone 10,15,20 minutes without at least a pop in or something. But maybe that means next week they will come flooding back and it will be back to business as usual? fuck, i hope so cause its bill time.

Yes. And audio issues too. I tried to do an exclusive C2C with a regular who couldn't hear me and his stream kept dropping from my view. He wanted me to type but then I couldn't see him. He left and it's upsetting as he spends big.

Damn! This isn't a good thing. I took a week off and need to earn at least decent. While I'm glad it's not me, this just has to turn around for us. We all have a life to support and bills to pay. I'm gonna focus on abundance and try to vibe above it LOL. Thanks for the heads up.

Miss_ShaSha
03-28-2019, 01:30 PM
^^I only cammed for 3 hours yesterday morning which was, I think, around the time all the issues started. I hadn't even checked the boards until I experienced such deadness while on page 1 of Foot Fetish (I usually have a room full most of my shift). It was so weird I decided to check this thread and sure enough so many issues.

I'm 5 hours into my shift and it's pretty bad. Only three shows. I'm going to pull a 10 hour shift to try and make high goal. I've remained positive, but it's getting ridiculous.

I hope this is just a bad day on SM so tomorrow and Saturday are profitable.

I've complained about my stream on SMConnect messing up lately but did some tweaks with my lighting and got an ethernet cable and it seemed to be going smoothly until someone took me private. My stream disconnected out of nowhere 3 times. Poor guy kept coming back and it would happen again within a few minutes. He told me the site has been fucking up a lot lately. I switched to SMBroadcast to see if that would help. He comes in pvt and so does another guy and within minutes disconnected again.

He hasn't come back and can't blame him. Luckily he's a regular so I"ll see him again at some point but why does SM have all these problems? I've heard on here that other sites don't have constant stream issues. Is it that hard to get it right? I legit don't know what it takes to make streaming work but shouldn't they have figured it out by now? It's been years of this crap.

03-29-2019, 01:54 PM
Well, that's it for me today I think. Thank goodness I got on cam 4 hours before my regular shift as SMConnect has failed completely for me. While it was relatively slow today, at least I was able to engage in shows in both exclusive and private; about an hour ago a real sweetheart came through and we started an exclusive show where he tried to C2C. The request wouldn't even show up on my end then he got kicked. We tried 3 different times and no dice.

I shut down my laptop, unplugged my cam, restarted my laptop, cleared Chrome history, then logged back in as my ranking had tanked for no known reason. Still issues and was placed somewhere 100 pages deep LOL. Also customers entering my room weren't even showing up in the chat history as entering nor leaving.

I tried rectifying this issue for about 30 minutes. Thank God I met goal cause I think I'm done trying to fuck with it.

Are you ladies having similar issues?

Weird, SMconnect actually bumped my placement to the top row of my category....but, since im a trans girl im sure im sure im probs on page 100 anyway lol. But, i never really worry about placement outside of my category bc its not like im competing with the thousand other cis girls on lol. That being said....it has def been acting wonky af today. Audio going in and out, lagging, stream health dropping, etc. I dunno if its because the contest is winding down, or just general errors. What I do wish, though, is that traffic would pick up. This has been one of the worst weeks, traffic wise, that I have ever seen on SM.

Miss_ShaSha
03-29-2019, 03:22 PM
^^Dayum! That's what's up. The bump is a plus! Yeah, I really just care about my category too. SMConnect has helped my sales I will admit to that, but not so much this week. I'm down to only two options currently: Flash or SMConnect as I'm still unsure I'll make camming my full time gig in the next few months where I'll upgrade everything. I have a Chromebook so I'm limited. But yes...the placement perk is nice and it has helped.

I cannot contend with the main 1st page though. When I actually made page 1 it was one hell of a surprise: the sales were through the roof; it's not regular however.

Yeah, I asked a number of customers if they were aware of audio issues, lagging, and such: I did get confirmation. It's a bit upsetting, isn't it? This is to be expected, right: the ebb and flow?

I appreciate you chiming in. Hey...are you still using the beats? I listen at least 2 hours a day & engage in self-hypnosis nightly. TMI? LOL

Hello :) Well, I wanna know if c2c is Working on SMconnect.. I wanted to use it more frequent but I get a lot of c2c requests and never work. Uhhh. Ahh and do u use in SMConnect the web encoder or the external encoder? Thx u

Miss_ShaSha
03-29-2019, 06:23 PM
^^Hi! I use the web encoder as I have a Chromebook. C2C has not worked at all for me today. 2 customers tried to request and I didn't even get a window to accept. Both customers asked why I didn't accept their cam. This, however, happened towards the end of my shift around 4pm US central time. It's 8pm now. I have not tried again to log in and stream. I really hope it was just a temporary issue. I did logout and try Flash (I'm limited with just the Chromebook) and even Flash had the same issue.

Let me know if you can C2C. I want to stream tomorrow. I'm sending good vibes your way.

I really think they were calculating all the money a model earned rather then their best 3 days.

StellaPurr
03-29-2019, 08:21 PM
Ohh right and maybe they adjusted it? I've been taking screenshots of my placement with the timestamps just in case. I feel like with the money I've made so far I'd be placing in the contest but I worry they're going to rip the carpet out from under us and deny ppl the prize money because of the "glitch" it's making me so paranoid. I've been busting my ass all week to ensure I'm in the top 200 :s

anonamiss
03-29-2019, 08:30 PM
I really think they were calculating all the money a model earned rather then their best 3 days.

are you saying you think it's fixed now? does it seem to be properly calculating only the best three days?

i could have just been tired and maybe not thinking straight, but i checked on my ranking yesterday and was noticing my rank fall (which is normal), but then i checked a few hours later and i swear I got bumped up like two spots on the leaderboard... even though I didn't work at all. but I noticed my earnings were different and it seems I got $25 in cammodel affiliate money from a guy spending time with another model. it would be really weird if that affected my rank, because those earnings aren't supposed to count toward the contest.

i'm going to do a shift later tonight. i'd have to make a pretty hefty amount to move up in the ranks if I'm basing it on doing better than my "third best night" of the week. i'll definitely keep an eye on it and report back if I start moving up in rank before making that minimum amount.

Hello. Can you tell me please where shoud I look for my cammodel affiliate money? Thank you!

if someone signed up with your cammodels link and spent money, you will see it on your regular earnings page. it lists it as either "20% cammodels" or "40% cammodels." you get 20% of whatever the person spends on another model, and 40% (in addition to your regular 35%) if they spend on you.

Same thing happen to me today. Exclusive show & block show requests then it would just disappear. Guys trying to put their cam on and it disconnects. I had 1 poor guy try 7 times to stay in show, it kept freezing. Then needless to say the shows that froze with him just leaving and not trying again. Very frustrating!

Whatever they are upgrading or fixing does not seem to be finished yet, and it’s the end of the week. Combined with March Madness games continuing through next week, I won’t be surprised if they extend the contest.

I can understand why they use low peak times to perform upgrades, but I hope the site is all back to normal ASAP. Hang in there girls.

Last year they immediately did another 2 day contest as soon as the March Madness/"Best Face Forward" contest ended. If they are going to do that again, I would have expected them to send out an announcement email for it by now.

I use them occasionally. I need to dive back into LOA and beats headfirst, i have just been kind of out of it the past couple of weeks for some reason. When I do, I usually listen for a half hour in the morning, on breaks and at night. Maybe if I do some work on that it will help deal with this slow shit lol.

^^ Girl, the only way I've been able to stay as positive as I have and withstand the slowness is the beats and LOA LOL. These weeks have tested my patience and level of optimism, but the practice has most definitely helped.
