I just had to stream on OBS for 2 hours because neither SMConnect or SMB could connect. There was just a loading wheel forever. Well it's a contest time so would be stupid to expect anything but glitches.

I suddenly stopped getting any traffic at all starting with yesterday. Tried SMB and SMConnect, I'm still at the top of the first page either way but getting 7 potentials at most, totally empty chatroom most of the time. Took me 15 hours to make $100 yesterday - what the everloving fuck.

Same here, for the last 2 days i make nothing there, i dont even know if people see me cause they just come in and leave in a matter of seconds, nobody talks so i dont know... i checked myself on cam and it's loading for me but somehow others cant see me?! Or i have a bitchy face that nobody likes? I smile often but whatever. I look the same way and work the same way so it cant be me really!
What i noticed tho is there is a longer delay when using SMB that with SMC, i make a sign to the camera and count the seconds, with SMConnect it shows faster but in rest... dead room or ins outs, no business for me these last 2 days and i dont feel positive for this evening either but as i cant sleep i'll get on cam anyway (i cam nite shifts here).

I emailed SM with no reply back yet. Its nothing huge but its annoying. I'm being offered "priority placement" for using SMconnect but if I use SMB, I'm still in the exact same spot so no, I am NOT receiving priority placement by using connect. Nothing has changed for me but I've noticed and have heard from others, that they have in fact moved up pages by using connect compared to SMB so why is it only priority for some but not everyone? I hate being lied to like that.


Yes but I've mainly been using connect cause I like it much more then SMB but if I switch over to SMB, I am in the exact same spot as I am when I use connect where as other models would go back pages if they switched over to SMB. So they are forced to use connect for better placement. It doesnt matter which one I use, I am not receiving priority placement. I'm in the exact same spot.

At least you are in a spot.
Yesterday, I wasn't even listed as streaming, even though I was using SMC.
Not when I checked it on my mobile phone.
Doesn't matter. Using SMC is a time waster for me.
Nobody can hear me.

OhhhMyyyyGoodness! Almost 2 hrs streamed and I've got next to zero traffic. It's slower than it was yesterday. I'm seriously considering getting the fuck off LOL.

Plus, in almost 2 hrs, I've lost my streaming connection 3 times on SMConnect Web Encoder.

Sigh, today may just be a loss. 3 regs came by just to say "hi". EXTRA sigh.

HELP. SOS. 911!!!

They've always had a contest for 4th of July. Next one seems to be on 14th for Nude Day and then another one at the end of July (best face again). At least based on what they had last year.

No matter how glitchy or bad it may seem, those contests boom the website's earnings, otherwise they wouldn't offer so much money for "free". For example, this contest is at least a ~$90000 in prizes + countless bonuses for hours (some girls might not place in top 200, but still get $100, $50 or $25). Just thinking top 200 will get $100 each, that's another $20000 to add.
Girls are making a shit ton of money during contests, definitely a few times over what they reward us in prizes. Business is good for them, even if it doesn't seem that way all the time.

As for glitches and other things, I haven't felt much this time, but the competion is getting bigger and bigger. And harder to make your daily average when others are offering so many deals, so many special shows, so much time online. Hey, no shade! Good for them, I'm no hater. I believe everybody should mind their own business and deal with things (cause you can't change what others do). But yes, money get splitted to more girls than before.

^^^ Ty for telling these things. You got valid points and u also know that we only care about OURSELVES no matter how things run around us, in my own universe i suffer cause the lack of money and traffic during these contests.
It's all i care about same like SM cares about their own business and every single model cares about her own business.
When u are not a top model or even high earner this fierce competition hurts really bad money wise!
Of course SM does what is best for them, i just tell how i feel here, that is all :(

the contest are annoying to me.
a lot of bad energy breeds, streamate models are naturally competitive, add a contest, the stress level is worse.

i see the increase of models online, some live and breathe sm for that week and gone the next but return. i dont blame them for going ghost, thats hard work
I do good during contest, i don't give a shit about placing, I care about making what I need to make for my lifestyle.


we have tech issues but seem to iron out within the week, for models on a time limit.. that sucks.
i have had tech issues since adobe encoder was introduced so imo 2019 is nothing compared to what it was, its actually a breeze bc sm is now responsible for the fuckery

Im still shocked that a few years ago we could flip through 20 pages and end up on the men online, flip a few more and its the offline models.

Now you have to go through 900 pages to get to offline models lol

500-2500 models online in the matter of no time
i hear we have bots, thats so cool *sarcasm*

Im reading the union wants to target sm for higher tips and during that thread others comment they didnt work sm bc of the low payout.
I wish more felt had that way lol but they know sm brings money
its funny bc they think we work hard lol like slaveeee

I use to work like a slave but I also had a -32k bank account. IRS got me
contest can suck a donkey dick for all i care

Oh, trust me, I've had a hard time this week also. Crickets almost everyday, except Sunday.
It's hurting us all, regardless of our placement. That's why girls put more effort and more special things, because they have to in order to win.
I try not to take things personally and just deal with it. I can't change how they run this website, I can't change how other girls run their hustle. No matter how hard I scream, nobody will care, SM bank accounts will be getting bigger and bigger. That's the only feedback they want or care. Do I wanna feel special? Fuck yeah. Truth is, I'm not. Just a worker for a big ass corporation.

I don't have other advices. All I can tell you is don't do yourself more harm. Everything is already hideous in this industry, things are moving so fast, we have to adapt to many changes, we have so much competion and being online is not enough to make money anymore (it used to be a few years ago). Focus on your own good, on your health (physically and mentally). If online is awful, then do clips (you don't even have to show your face or body, fetishes work great), do phone, do texting, do ASMR stories, do whatever the fuck it takes to put yourself in a better state. Or just log off when it's bad and focus on your house (do cleaning, cooking, other part time jobs online). To be honest, when I log in and it's bad, I can't take it for too long. I'll be like fuck this shit, I would rather rest or do laundry and get something good out of this day.

Bad times will pass and earnings will level up in the end (a bad week, a normal week, a fucking amazing week and so on). Wish you girls great energy to conquer awful days!

I hate contest weeks as well and I've only placed in the top 200 a few times and it does make you feel bad when other model's are at the top of the contest. However, they work their asses off to get there. I know a model who worked 48 hours straight and I'm just not willing to do that. Yeah, the money would be nice but it's just not worth it to me. I like my sleep too much lol

When i started on SM many years ago we were only a few hundred online and i always but always made good money when i got on cam, i was a 1st page model for a few years and did really well.
Now we are 2000 and up online at a time especially during contests.
The difference is huge!
These contests feel like no ending torture, luckily my son earns too and it's not all on me like some years ago when he was in school still, he assured me he is here for me and i should not worry and as princess said, to care for me and my well being which i do my best to.

Awww, now I feel nostalgic. When I first started there was around 700-800 online and it was right before topless was allowed in free and Gold Shows came around. Time between privates was maybe 15 min. A lot of the top earners that I remember left once all the big changes started happening. There seemed to be a more fun vibe to rooms back then. Now so many look like they aren't happy ( I'm guilty of that at times)

I'm finding it hard to keep up with the changes but I stay with SM because the other sites are the same in terms of what's expected now out of models in order to make money. What I find the most difficult is that although I'm very animated and interactive in private, I'm pretty boring in free chat unless someone fun comes in and starts talking. I think by not doing much in free it makes a lot of guys bounce out of my room and in to someone else's.

KatM
06-28-2019, 06:00 PM
^^^ I totally agree with all u saying here and same like u i stay with SM cause is the only site i can still make money on and as u say, i too look pretty boring in free but very good in pvt or if i am tipped, i mean after soo many years camming i think it comes with the job, i dont have the enthusiasm of a new starter and age is also a factor, i am a mature cam model and dont feel like entertaining people for free or moving around a lot or being very talk active, we got the experience but we lost some willingness in the process i guess.
Things changed for me when they introduced gold shows cause then the real competition started i reckon, the 'playing dirty' game started, dont wanna go into details as i am sure u know what i mean.

48 hrs straight?! This is just soo much, i mean compare this with my 4 hrs at most so yeah, of course they work very hard for that money!
Logged off for the week and will get on cam Sunday, good luck everyone and congrats in advance for placing, that money are not easy money for sure, as i said before i am not that kind of model who has a lot of energy plus i have several health issues and for me is important to make money in that 3-4 hrs i am able to cam, i cant extend the time frame because i'll hurt myself so yeah, i will deal with it and carry on.

I've been crickets too for this contest. Gold Shows have really saved my ass. I dont normally like to do them so much cause they feel like a lot of work for little $$ but I have been almost back to back with them for the contest and I have had some really big tippers join them and make them very profitable. Just rolling with the punches here. I wont place in the contest or even get the bonus because I just had to many other things happening this week and couldnt put in the hours but I feel for everyone who did. It was brutal out there.

Good news is that its over and its the end of June beginning of July and in my experience the BEST time to make money is the week ending/beginning a month so if you need to make up some funds then put your hours in the next 4 or 5 days and you will probably see some cash! Lots of guys getting paid right now and they might want to use it for vacation but your sexier and immediately gratifying so get that $$. ;)

ETA. Just posted this and now I see there is another contest next week. lol Buckle up! FML

Well I spoke too soon, it happened to me. However like all of the last times that this happened, even though I was on page 10 the flow of traffic into my room was normal it was just my potential viewers that was really low.

I am agree. Ever since the new algorithm, it does not matter where my placement is. I switched accounts and the new account was on page 10 and I was shocked to have my same traffic. I think only non-signed in people know what page you are on and who cares, they are not ready to buy shows. Now the only other time I can think about the placement mattering is if you have opted in to be advertised. The software might only select models from page one, but that is all I can think of.

However, they work their asses off to get there. I know a model who worked 48 hours straight and I'm just not willing to do that. Yeah, the money would be nice but it's just not worth it to me. I like my sleep too much lol

Holy wow and here I am wanting to flip my desk after 15 mins. Man 48 hours later, I would be checking in to a mental ward.

Excuse me. But, did SM just change the cam to cam screen to appear on the left of the interface?
OR, am I undermedicated, and it has always been that way?:trip:

Haha, yes, I freaked out when I saw that too. Fortunately you can click on it and chose to make it a small window again, which, thank God, can be minimized.

^^I'm quite pleasant in free chat, but once I get confirmation either way (within about 3 min) yes or no to a show I either get that show or ignore the guy. Usually ignoring teaches them to buy a show or they leave. Either way I get my point across.

Sorry doll, it can be hard to navigate at times.

I kick them out after a min or two. Same for those who keep coming back in the room for freebies.

Guys like this will suck the energy out of you/your room and abuse your politeness all day every day if you let them. Start pointedly ignoring him and he'll either pay up or go away. Do not keep entertaining him for free in hopes that he'll eventually pay up.

I've been on for about 3 hours tonight and have been disconnected like 10 times so far, not even kidding. Using the SM Broadcaster. Has anyone else dealt with this lately? I can't figure out if its just because streamate runs by way of like two tin cans connected with a string & powered by a potato generally or if it's maybe something funky with my internet connection/ethernet cable.

I've only been on for twenty min and in the last pvt and last exclusive I did the SMB kicked me down to the lowest resolution. It would be perfectly fine in free chat but would plummet in the shows. I'm now on SM Connect with no issues so I don't think it's on my end.

I think I will try ignoring the freeloaders from now on. I don't want to start kicking/banning people unless I really have to though.

Had a new customer take me for a block session after a gold show he was in.
He stayed in the session until he hit his spending limit ($300)
When SM booted him, he never came back.
He sent me an angry email, saying how pissed he was.
So was I.
There was only one hour left until the contest ended.
I was only $20 shy of getting to the next bonus money level.
Damn it!>:(

Haaa, me too! I'm like, HA!!! This is what it feels like for a woman to kick sorry ass dudes out of their lives. :D And same with dudes if I don't like their screen names. Certain things I'm just not into, and if I see some pervy shit in their screen name, I block them. Don't want to do business with them, ya know?

Here's what I sent them just now, really fucking fed up btw:

PLEASE, please, STOP w/the Contests, already! Give it a rest, please.
Thanks a lot.
Have a great day.

Thanks

^^how do we opt in for advertising??

Well, I have searched for the past 30 min on SM and cannot find it. A long time ago when SM had SM TV and then the Topspot GS, you had to opt-in or opt-out of marketing. It is gone. I do not do gs, so I am assuming the topspot is now gone too? I know the sm tv is gone.

I did notice in the performer agreement, you are automatically opted into marketing.

I know I am not loosing my mind, there used to be a place to check it on or off. It has been too long since I cared.

Quote from SM geo option:

"Geographic blocking will remove you from the sort and searches of non-logged in members. Additionally, any advertising or additional exposure of your profile will also be disabled. If you restrict ANY geographic location (not just your own) - you will not be available in the site search results or similar models for logged out users and members in the restricted area. This will impact the volume of users in your room as less people will be able to find you, and may impact your earning potential."
