I talked to Liz about my RRT and showed it was an issue with SM's server. She said to ask Cox if they could do something with latency. They cant since the issue isn't a Cox issue, its an issue on SM's side. I literally have to find a new site because Im not getting hardly any traffic because Im being punished for an issue thats not even my fault. They shouldnt have these restrictions until their issues are 100 percent fixed.

Exactly what is this RTT & how does it effect??

RTT is you Round Trip Time, it's the transfer time between your computer and SM's servers and it affects the delay in your room. The lower the number, the better. You can check your RTT under "Reports" and "My Ranking" in your dashboard.

what is your RTT? mine is usually in the good or average range.. right now it's 142 still no shows!

Last night it was 244. I sent in the info from PingPlotter that proves my time to their router is fast, its their servers that are the issue. Anything above 100 and your traffic suffers terribly.

What does it mean when your rtt flunctuates. Like sometimes its 60-70 and I get a lot of traffic and eveyrthing works great and sometimes its 200- 300 and i dont get any traffic people not able to stay in pvt. Is it MY internet or streamates fault ??

The lower the better, itīs the time it takes for data to travel from your computer to servers...the shorter is this time the better cause means less delay.

Yes they want you at 100 or below, if you're higher than that you dont get much traffic. So the lower the number the better for RTT

You will have to find out if its on your end or their servers. I use http://pingplotter.com to test it and see. It always comes back as an issue on SM's server for me.

Can we just get rid of the effing rating bullcrap score???? I would really stay in the paid chat way more if I didn't have to boot them out when I suspect they're going to eff me over. We'd both make more money that way. You know when they clearly didn't read my profile and are asking for stuff I clearly don't do. I'd love to just be able to run their clock out while we discuss it or they decide to let me do something else. That would be swell.

This^^^^
I go through this too. They like our looks but can't be bothered to read. Or even ask beforehand. I had someone say to me the other day

"Why do you care what I want, you're getting paid regardless."

Um no. That's not how this shit works dude.
It would be nice if we could just run their clock like you said. But it's all on us to end it or be screwed with bad ratings.

Had guys go into private/exclusive and get kicked out seconds into the show. They came back only to be kicked again. Sometimes by the third time they get lucky and it works. I cant even deal with this right now.

Mine is almost always close to 300, today it was 278, never under 100. I'm getting the software you mentioned and ill do a test to find out why! I didnt know that influences your traffic that much... Is it because anythng less than excellent makes your placement drop or does it actually technically affect you that bad?

Wow I did not know this. Perhaps this has been my issue all along. My last shift shows as 116 for RTT. It is usually a bit higher than that. Also, what's with the frames per second saying 99.9? Is that even possible? I know my shit aint that good LOL

On a side note, my gold club has magically reappeared with all my stuff still in there. Funny since I had them shut my gold club down over 6 months ago. I think they are definitely messing with the site right now. They only seem to do contests when girls are not going to be online normally, such as during holidays or when they know its going to be a glitch fest due to them working on shit. I can only hope they are making the site actually work for a change.. Changing things that actually matter. I did not even bother logging on today. I saw there were just over 1000 girls on at one point today. That doesn't seem normal to me at all.

It's gotten so bad I've gone back to working on Naked. Lord help me!

Most of the traffic must be performers with member accounts, checking out other room for what's up.

Yeah lately I barely get onto streamate like 30-90 min a day and have not been getting 1 private. Everybody rags on certain other sites, but doing better elsewhere. I don't know if this is because I am new to camming or what, but streamate is completely useless to me the past few days so that is why i cut it off. after a certain amount of sitting and no dollars. I don't need my sites that I actually make money on lagging because of SM's stupid encoder.

Glamourmilf
08-08-2016, 12:17 PM
So, I've made over $300 on two of the contest days, and only got top 200/a $5 bonus, lol. I didn't give a shit about the contest or the bonus, but it's just baffling to me that over 100+ models are making considerably more than that every day, especially with all the glitches and low traffic.

I think that's what I hate most about the leaderboard... I get curious and start clicking around, and then get resentful, particularly when I see boring unengaging models who placed higher than me. I'm like "Why is this girl making so much more than me? She's ignoring everyone and literally isn't doing ANYTHING." -_-

Blah. I'm just venting, I'm not saying girls don't deserve their rankings. Obviously they're doing something right to place that high and make so much money. Props to them. I just don't understand why guys pay so much for certain models sometimes, and it leaves me at a loss as to how I can improve my own hustle. /endrant

Well, sometimes a model makes more money ignoring her room. It is what it is. I'm one of those models.:D

I second this. I do well because I'm paying attention to my room even when it appears I'm not. I always wonder how the models that are giving everything away ever make a dime.

How often do you send SM "feedback" about this? I message them like once or twice a week and yeah, you're right. It feels like talking to a brick wall...

The marketing guy reached out to many of us months ago on Twitter and we did a couple sessions to talk about improving Streamate on Periscope. You can reach them on Support but they don't really respond back to many models. They deserve an F- when it comes to their model support.

Let's just say they are people of very few words... :)) Takes them like 2 days to get back to me sometimes, and a lot of the times they will send me back a standard all purpose reply that kinda has nothing to do with what i asked. :O Then i write back and say yeah, ok, thats not what i was asking, and repeat the question. Then they write back "Oh sorry for the confusion". /:O It's a process....

I had the exact same problem last eve, this guy will ask for an excl, i accepted it but then nothing happens, he tried several times in a row then coming back for another round and i could not get the excl to connect, then i figured out he was doing it on purpose because he will come in guest chat and right away asking for excl, if he was legit he would type something to me telling me he has connection issues or so, right?
At least that's what would have been normal. I had to block him before he asked for another excl cause he put me on limbo every time by taking me away free chat. I tried the pause button every time but nothing helped. Not to mention it was a crap shift so this excl. thing issue did not help either. Was his name kio~something, some numbers after kio?

Nah, that wasn't his name. This ended up happening to me several times tonight, once with a regular. I ended up blocking the first dude, and telling my regular to log out and log back in. Not sure if that worked though. I hate being in limbo like that! Its faster to restart shit than it is to wait for it to pick up.
Drove me crazy!

RTT went to shit, exclusives not connecting and sending me into a 2-3 minute limbo, privates not even coming though. When a guy could miraculously get me into a show, c2c wouldn't work, it would just show as a black screen even though I know they know how to work it because we've done it before.
Break button trick isn't even working anymore.
I was having a GREAT shift until it became literally impossible for me to earn money.

My RTT is usually under 100, after about an hour and a half online today it shot to the 400s. That hasn't happened to me since last summer.

Oh crap, this is still going on? Sunday was a nightmare for me with this stuff. Made my goal but could have made a lot more. Had a guy take me to paid 5 TIMES and he kept getting booted. He finally gave up. He kept getting booted, returning to free chat saying "WTF?! Let's try again!" and then taking me back in only to get booted 3-5 minutes in again. He finally just left and didn't come back :( The really bad thing about that is he may have turned into a regular, he was trying so hard to stay in paid with me. UGH. Also had a few instances where guys would show "Moved to Paid" and the screens never kicked over to paid on my end, so there I was sitting in free chat waiting.........and the poor dude was sitting there one handed typing probably going "BB, where are you?"....

I really hate where this site has gone - honestly? Instead of all of these stupid contents and COMPLETELY unnecessary (user left) (gold show) tabs next to a persons name, why don't they FIX THEIR FUCKING SITE? The bugs are terrible, their traffic has gotten so bad, and I can't stand to even work here anymore. I use this site for voyeurs and the occasional show that pops up while in them. They don't deserve 65% anymore.

Anyone else have guys who left free chat and it said user is entering paid chat but they just vanish instead? This happened to me a lot today. Mother fucking crap.

Happened to me once today too. And a lot of in and out with 'reason unknown'.

My RTT has never been 100 or less. I've upgraded everything and while that has helped my other ranking numbers and income a good bit, I never have excellent RTT. I'm always at 113-130. I'm not really tech savvy so Idk really know what else I can do.
Should I just assume it's the site?
