No one here is going after the model who got the tip. That would be wack. Just pointing out that Streamate comes up with new and inventive ways to alienate their models every day it seems.

It is inappropriate for a camsite to selectively issue tips to performers. Especially when earnings determine things like placement and contest winnings.

I hear you out and I agree it's unfair, but we don't know if that was really SM. It's speculation. SM has retreated out big tips I posted before that made me feel good before. It could of been a customer or another model. Vanessa seems like a sweet girl, she probably thought it was nice.

Just contractors v employees. Company can chose to reward a contractor and not another. Employees get the bonus as well.

Same in any business any place in the world. Dont let it throw you off your game.

We're not SM's contractors, we're their customers. SM is a classic middleman who is introducing sellers to buyers and vice versa.

I think there's a contest every month for a day or two. This one is 3 days, I think. I can't remember when all these started but it's fairly recent.

So apparently Streamate is randomly gifting $100 tips to the models who AREN'T calling them out on twitter over the abysmal performance of their platform the last couple days? Way to boost morale.



I don't think people should assume that it's SM. It could be a member name.

I dont think anyone HERE was picking on that person? I can't speak for twitter? But I really hope that the Streamate reps are reading this. Because it's really sad what the true premise behind their social media campaign is...or what it's become. PETTY. They don't have any followers who aren't models. And the @realstreamate account only interacts with the same people over and over. It's no wonder people are getting upset over preferential treatment. If that girl is getting picked on then thats really sad. People should be mature enough to know where to direct their frustrations. And thats at Streamate. Ive known about people getting tipped by sm for awhile now. Im not surprised. But apparently a lot of other people are and they may need some time to catch up.

I'm sure as hell not a fave. I hardly get "tv broadcasts" and SM Recruiting did an interview with me that they still haven't aired. Whatever. I just log on to do my job then log off. They can suck my hairy cunt.

Help!! I just stopped the fmle so I could refresh and when I went to start show again it gave me an error screen and redirected me to the sm login screen. Now it says my password is invalid. Wtf is going on?!

Edit: I reset my password and it still says it is incorrect. I don't understand. Is my account being hacked or something? Or is it SM fucking up?

So I read all the drama surrounding this. I was a bit late to the party cause I really been paying attention in a couple of days but I have to bring this back up again to say

SMFairy?? Really? This has got to be a client. All the guys at SM have way too much ego to call themselves Fairy!

Thats not to say they dont tip girls. They do but I dont think this is them :D

NO, and to be quite honest i don't see why any cam girl has a problem with this at all, we all have a fav i opted out of promotion, since then i dont see a random ninga tip, of course i will get them still from a reg or a sub, but rarely on sm now, , before that i was one maybe a month getting a 100 plus tip if i did a gold show to do the show which i thought was sm. sm however i think when its quiet/ crap traffic try and spoil there girls, but lets put this into persecutive $100 35 dollar to us so just a gesture lol..................there should be no sour grapes, if you work on the site just try to get the guys to pay. Its down to us, yes the traffic is on some days/ hours crap but YOU need to convert that , fuck some hours i work i think wtf sm, but i think thats the way camming has gone, you girls are far too forth coming with info for new cammers and spoon feeding, today is not what it was years ago ffs and your all giving away info us long timers worked for!!! When sm is not giving us the traffic they use too, learn to keep your mouths shut on a forum the whole world can see.......just my pennies worth.......you all need to wake up what you girls are giving away free info on a forum all can see........................i welcome any competition but fuck go the the same way most of us did and learn , read and get yr own game plan.............if you don't like working sm, then work more sites .............so what another model got a 100 dollar tip wtf you girls, come on now, get this 30 dollar in yr pocket a bit more in to persecutive , i am sorry but if your not making at least and i mean at least 150 take home after any site fees a day for what we do, well for me it would be a fin insult , i am not showing my flange for what the min wage should be working all hours in another job. Fuck that shit! we do and sell our soul for what we do and we need to reap the rewards........if you cannot make that from sm alone, branch the fuck out and work a shed load of sites. not saying too much coz quite frankly i am not one to help the new unless they sign up with a studio making a huge error.

05-03-2016, 08:15 AM
I will also say streamate need to sort there traffic out and start buying them again as its not what it was, for 65% they sure as fuck need to step up for there models no matter what.

after a LOT of thought I decided to delete the twitter screencap (and quotes of it) from this thread. would like to explain why below:

not trying to censor anything, just know the cam chica involved received a ton of blow back because of it and the point of this space is not to harm cammers, whether they're members here or not.

I don't work sm so not a party to the frustrations (justifiable, from what I've read) that y'all face. Please know I took that into consideration with my decision on removing the cap. It's difficult sometimes, trying to put myself in other peep's shoes when I do stuff (or choose not to act), hope y'all know this decision comes from a good place.

The 'do no harm' principle is numero uno to me, it has to be. this place can't be a source of support without that. from what I've been told by friends of the peer involved that screencap faciliatated the opposite. A chica got a gift from sm. She doesn't deserve to be dragged through the mud for doing what we're all here to do: earn money.

Wil admit again 100% I don't experience the frustrations y'all encounter on sm so this is all second hand jugement without walking in y'all's shoes, so please know I get where you're coming from in terms of legitimate ire and commentary. just don't want a cammer to be the outlet for that justifiable frustration, when she did nothing more than work hard and earn a tip

ultimately we're all on the same side. we need to work together to change this industy. peers are a resource in achieving that goal, not an enemy

feel like I haven't explained this well here but will blame that on the lack of caffeine in this house. would kill my non-Mr Jesse for drinking all my Monster drinks this am if I didn't love him so much. rolling out shortly to aquire more, in the meantime hope the above suffices.

Last night I worked and it was okay. For like an hour. Guy enters chat, I tell him to tip me ten, he tips. I tell him to tip for video bundle, guy tips for my bundle. I tell guy to buy block session, guy buys block session. We are now five mins over block, guy gets kicked from show. Guy tries over and over to stay in room. Finally he types you have blocked me? Why? I did not block him. But that was popup he received every time he entered my room and was disconnected. Finally he leaves. I wonder if the site was going down during this time?

Good for that girl.
I can't see it as a loss to anyone who didn't get it considering it wasn't money you earned on that site.
If they are rewarding a performer with a positive attitude, then good for her.

Guess SM is trying to cut down on complaining tweets, since they started a twitter account for marketing. Which is on them since so many of us are unhappy with support taking days to reply & getting copy paste answers that do absolutely nothing to resolve the issue. They have left performers no outlet for that frustration.

If they really wanted a more positive twitter account then I highly suggest they get live help for the performers that are not condescending & get rid of copy & paste answers. They need to have a help phone line or to get on cam to cam with us to fix any technical issues that arise.

Until they get performers real help & support then their twitter feed will keep being filled with unhappy performers. Which fans & customers read the feed & think, why is this company not resolving these problems. Why are the girls so unhappy with the company? It is a publicity nightmare, no company wants.

Smooches,
Sam

Doing it now...I'm not sure what the issue could be because I had a very busy last few hours and no one complained. Now suddenly tons of FMLE frame drops. Could it be my c920 going out?

Girl yes...this has happened to me since I started on SM. Signing off and coming back later (although I'm likely done for the day) always solves this issue. I did an over 20 min c2c exc today and no issues so something was obviously going right before it took a dump. I hope it's just this but I've been hearing models talk about replacing their cams and I have replaced mine for 1.5 years...wonder if it's time

I say replace the cam when the bitrate is low or the colors start to get janky. Or simply if you've had it for ages. Change out your ethernet cable often as well. Its a lot of data going through these devices. But ultimately I think you just need to log off and come back later. Maybe only 30 mins? Log off and reset modem. Then comback and see it the site is stable and willing to work with your setup. Or it could be your ISP
