AC, I had that same guy come into my room yesterday. He didn't take me private, but he did tip me 5 tokens and was like SHOW TITS PLZ. My boob flash is set at 80 tokens so I just thanked him and said but boobs are 80, so he tipped 80. After that he was like FRIEND ADD and I had to explain to him that a friend add is 20 tokens so he tipped me 20. It's definitely a cultural thing and a language barrier issue. I don't tend to ban guys who come into my room and are like SHOW TITS, SHOW PUSSY... I just silence them to see if it'll teach them a lesson, most of them don't do it again but if they do, I'll ban them. I've also banned spammers and models advertising their rooms. I only do cum shows during private shows so I've not experienced doing a public one and guys coming in and barking this and that and I can imagine that been pretty frustriating on there. My experience with Bonga has actually been a positive one. Ronnie came into my room yesterday to welcome me to the site and to see if I needed any help with anything. There's a lot of times I am just sitting in silence even though there's 100 guys in my room and none of them speak English. But I either just dance or pull faces and stare them out until someone talks, tips or takes me private. I'm hanging on in the top 100 and the guys who do actually chat in my room are usually from the UK so I can banter with them. I'm sorry that you girls are having a crappy experience with the site and that it picks up for you soon. I also believe that AC should get her money back because the guy DID get the boob flash he paid for.

This is the main reason I split cam with CB. It makes the time on BC a lot less painfully dull.

I'll probably only use this site when I am slow on all other sites. I'm pretty sure if I keep interacting with these folks I'll end up hating them, become racist as hell, hate camming and myself.

Yes he was from INDIA!.. which I always had a problem with them no matter how many times I gave them a chance..
ahhh that explains why I had not been getting many rude guys. I do get cheap ones though but I just had told them they didn't tip enough.
I went in and blocked India and several other countries, mainly ones where porn is illegal (why they aren't blocked already is a puzzle). My room became a lot more pleasant after this.
I may add this site back into my rotation because I do have to admit, I did enjoy my brief time there. I signed back in yesterday for a few mins and traffic was pretty good.
If they don't fix the refund problem though, other sites will always take priority and I'll just be running it on the side and not paying it much attention.

yeah, I split it with CB too. That way it doesn't bother me as much and on CB I only allow tippers to chat with me. I do run a tight ship. My CB guys are so nice and friendly. I just found a happy place there that gives me room to put up with rude fellows on BC. I do think BC is trying and Ronni has also come (lol I was gonna spell that cum) into my room to ask about the lovense toys I was using. They reply quickly with email support questions that are not cut and paste generic response AND with a "how did we do" ticket. Say What? We don't get that kind of support, even if it's lacking at times, on any other site. And we all know how often a Streamate rep shows their presence on the SM thread. At least ronni and olga are trying. ;-)
Hi babes, curious if u guys started to block certain countries on bonga or let them all open?
Tried SM for like an hr & decided to log off to save % in paid, it was too quiet for me plus i never cam at this time of the day so no regulars around.
Now that i have my make up on still, i wanna give bonga a try just to feel the site & it's clientele.
What do u recommend to do, block some countries to have better quality members or go on and see what i get there?
I am kinda nervous to log on :-\
Ty!

I'm liking BC to be honest. Some guys can be a bit pushy but I've noticed if you treat them sweetly they'll back off, and if they don't just ban away. It's still too soon for me to say just how good it is overall, but I've had some really good custies (and some sweet tippers), so they're there, just give them time ;)

Oh thank u for answering me here Mary xxx
I dont feel comfy to do public nude/cum shows, that i want to do in pvt & eventually tease in free, showing off etc but my panties/ clothes will stay on no matter what. Will they take me pvt for a nude or fetish show if i play this angle?
How much of a value a token has on bonga? (cant find the info just now lol).
Also, when is the site busy in general, is there a prime time when many models and members are on? (bonga time zone)
Pls if u can help, ur input will be highly appreciated xxx ty!

Have you already joined the site? Basically their payout starts at 40%. If you customise your profile, it goes up to 45% and if you upload a video, your payout goes to 50%. All of that is pretty quick to do though. I personally haven't blocked any countries. Yes, I get rude guys, but I have a different approach of being very firm with them and I let them know that they're being rude and if they continue, I'll ban them. Most of them leave on their own after that, but I have had one or two become tipping regulars so not banning straight away works for me. I'm not mean, just firm. I also get guys from countries where they are known to be 'cheap' but I do get random tokens from those guys at times. Not a lot of tokens, but in my opinion it all builds up and I'm usually just talking or dancing when they tip me. I work from 2pm to 7pm GMT because its the only hours I can do on there and I usually have up to 100 guys in my room. A lot of them are guests, but I do get paying guys at that time. I guess you could try different times or do a camathon to see what times are better for you?
I only do full cum shows in group or private shows. When a guy comes in and is like HOW MUCH ASS. I just tell him I show it in private only, some guys will take me at that and some won't. I do show my boobs in public chat for tokens, but that's it. I recommend giving it a go, if you don't like it, you can always come back off again. Good luck x

I should also point out that you will get those guys who will try to bargain with you. BOOB FOR 20 YES? What will 5 tokens get me? Oil show for 50? So be prepared for that. I usually put them straight and if they're rude, I'll call them out for being cheap and kick them, which my actual tippers find quite funny and I'll get tips from them for not lowering my standards. I'd say it's a website that will test your patience BUT the big tippers and guys who take me private for ages make it worth my while.

Thank you for taking the time to type all these to me Merry, u are soo very kind xxx, yes i joined for a week already & approved but did not cam there more than a few mins when i was testing the room, software, chat interface then logged off, in fact i had my sm session running & wanted to see if i can splitcam, i was able to but not at the best parameters due to my system capabilities at that time, in between i upgraded my system and wanna give this site a try and see how things work for me; i consider trying bonga on it's own at the beginning (w.o split camming) so i can get used to site interface, features & members, i dont want to split until i learn the site a little so i need to be able to focus on bonga fully until i get used to it then split eventually. Or just take a break from SM, i could do with a little of vacation like Queenmarry said in the Sm vent thread ;)
Yes, ur approach is exactly the one i wanna use myself, i am not mean either but firm while smiling, i am just afraid not to get angry on cam because of the freeloaders and abusive guys in case they come around u know, i wanna feel good on cam there, at a time SM felt like a very hostile work environment and dont want this again honestly.
I will try the evening GMT today, i normally dont cam on sm on sunday so i'll try bonga today.
I looked up site last week in the evening GMT and i saw around 500 models online, now i see 250 on.
Guess the evenings are busier there (bonga time) as i saw more models online at that time.
Ty again for input & good luck wishes, same for u there, xxx

FYI they really don't payout 50%...there's a way that for some customers you could get 50% but read the end of this thread. Typically you get like 31%-45%. False advertising.

This is how I work too so that's what I've been analyzing. There are quite a few cheapskates and freeloaders, but definitely some good paying custies too, who actually prefer girls who don't do nude free chat.
I read that every token has a value of one EUR cent, but I'm looking at my earnings now and it's $0.04 per token. I actually did a super easy "T-shirt off" countdown and the tips added up pretty quickly, so doing that and maybe a bra off countdown would be pretty sweet; plus someone can just take you private during the countdown if they really want to see all of you.
Still testing out the timezones, but I think after 6 or 7PM EST it gets pretty busy. I've tried morning and early afternoon hours but they were crappy.
Overall it's pretty easy, just beware of smartass freeloaders who ask you to initiate a private session so they can enter with a voyeur/spy rate, let them start the pvt sess.
Cool, ty for input!! xx
So they pay in Euros? But why they speak about $ there in dashboard? See i paste from there:
"You have earned $100 for period 8/10/2012 - 14/10/2012. You will get this $100 payment on 19/10/2012".
You sure u wanted to type EURO cent Mary? Can be they charge the members in euro but pay models in US dollars like jasmin does by the way?
I wanna transform these tokens in real money to see what to charge for, not used to the token system lol, i need money value to understand things haha.
ETA: i re-read ur message and looked better, i dont edit what i typed there not to confuse u but add the new info here, i re-read u say we models still get the tokens in value of $ but about the euros, looks like they charge members in euros? Or each member pay in his country currency and there is a conversion made? Confusing. Can members extra tip while in private, do they ever do?
QueenMary
03-06-2016, 03:11 PM
The site uses both euros and dollars, so when you look at your balance you'll see all your earnings in euros and dollars. I just remember reading the 1 cent euro thing when I was thinking of signing up :)
I assume they charge customers one or the other based on their location.
Oh and yes they can tip in private too.
^^^ Amazing, thank u soo much, now i can make my calculations by converting from real money to tokens and back haha, this info is very valuable cause i want to ask/inform certain members coming from countries that are 'wealthier' that they can tip extra for my pvt shows, i mean suggest it in a way like "hey, how about u tip me some extra tokens here if u enjoy me, i am sure u can afford it", this will flatter some of them eventually cause of me thinking they not cheap but wealthy ;), i mean i hope it will work like this.
Not going to push for extra tips but suggest in case they dont do it by themselves.
For the less wealthier guys i'll put up the same performance even they dont tip extra, got to adjust to site clientele and know who i am working with.
By the way, i loooove the fact that on bonga i can see where members come from so i can treat them accordingly, expect more or less depending on their cultural and financial background.
On SM i hate that there is no info about members location, is hard when u dont know who u dealing with and have to ask where they from or just dont ask at all.
Also i can answer to 'where u from' question in different ways depending on the member location, is always better to 'be closer' to them eventually *wink*
Getting ready to cam in a short while, soo happy to have ur support here babes, these questions customer support will never answer lol, u learn by doing it of course but now i am prepared thanks to u guys, ty xxx
I failed terribly on MFC back in 2011 when i tried the site, i treated it like SM, had no one's support like i have here now so my camscore went downhill and was useless to keep doing it there.
Now i have SW and it's great members as support which is simply amazing!! TY!!!

I guess no one knows about how to turn sound off on bonga then!
If i find out tonite i'll tell u susie xx
So while i was testing sm + bonga in splitcam mode with that verysoft free version and all the writing on screen from verysoft and the blinking/ gray picture i got a group request on bonga & did not know what to do, i starred while saying hello hru? before deciding if i should accept it or not, i saw there 'Group request 1 of 3 started' or so, what i was supposed to do, accept it?
I was thinking maybe 2 other guys had to join to start the group? Or i was supposed to start it with just one, the member who initiated it?
I mix information from all the sites i know, no kidding.
Then i was also thinking the same time "but the picture looks crap, cant he see what is on the screen, that huge text & the blinking in gray & color?
Plus i was thinking "where are the fees of group and private show, where are they located on site? In that huge agreement maybe?
Within few secs of me starring/ thinking/ trying to understand the request the guy canceled the group request.
I am such a dork sometimes hahaaa!!
Contacting support now!
Well i am impressed by the support help, it's Live Support on this site there, 24/7! I rated them 5 stars all together and commented "great service, could not be any better". No kidding, this is amazing after struggling with SM ways of doing things.
Group show is initiated by 1 member but other 2 have to join to have it started automatically if this is the setting the model choose like in my case (i think to change it to 2 members to make things move faster/easier).
Should i? How u babes set ur groups pls?
The fees are located in FAQ section for models, going to look them up :)
Ahhh the struggle of learning new stuff/ cam site at my age, i think i learned at least 75% of all sites in cam industry over the years :) :)

I would recommend waiting for all 3 guys to join the chat as this will make you more money, with 1 or 2 you're getting a fraction of the price of a group or private chat.
I was freaking out the first day or two haha, it all comes easily after a few days though

Thank you Mary, great to know, yes u right, i just read group fee is 15tk and full pvt is 45tk, so yeah, 3 guys in group equals a full pvt token wise.

It's OK when splitting with mfc but those sounds drive my guys away when I'm on AW in private, and I can't afford to do that when I'm charging $7 per min!! On bonga spy chat they only pop in and out for a few seconds so the boing boing sounds are constant :-/
JessRyan
03-07-2016, 07:52 AM
^^ I don't know about the sounds on BC either. They are open to model suggestions. That would help when the annoying VIP guys PM you. When it comes to privates on BC I'm finding that it's best to keep an eye on the original guy that took you private. I close the room and return to public as soon as he leaves. The spy rate is not worth it at all after he leaves. They do have it figured out by popping in for just a few seconds, those damn peepers are everywhere! KatM I've split BC with MFC and like you, I've failed miserably on MFC. I tried it all last week and ended up closing the dead MFC room. I just don't get it compared to how well the CB guys are and even BC beats MFC. At least I tried again, guess I won't waste my time on MFC anymore.
^^^ I was wondering what sounds u guys talking about on bonga, free chat sounds or pvt area sounds or what as i heard nothing while in freechat for my test session last nite (nobody tipped tho for the short time i was there on cam, was also an odd hr with low traffic on site -6am lol) nor could i find an option on dashboard to enable/disable sounds coming from any of the activities there (tips given, group/pvt requests, so on).
I dont remember if there was a sound when that group request window came up?!?
The only thing coming to my mind is, if we able to disable these sounds in windows, locate sounds for windows, recognize them and disable them lol, i hope it makes sense what i am saying?!
I have to look these up myself on win7 but i 1st need to hear how the sound sounds lol to be able to recognize and disable them directly in windows cause if these sounds are loud my sm members will be driven away too.
Not even sure if bonga + sm is doable at all considering the different hustle on these sites?
I see bonga + chaturbate to be more doable than bonga+sm?!
If somebody work bonga + sm with success pls share, ty! also how u manage the sounds aspect. (i dont offer gold shows on sm and do classic chat only, i flash tits for gold tho).
I know i dont want my sm guys to know i split cam ;)

Unfortunately that won't work because the sounds are not coming directly from Windows. They are from the browser you are using for Bonga.
Possibly you could use a different browser for Bonga and pull up the volume mixer and mute all sounds for that browser.
So i got this email from bonga in my email account & also see it on site in dashboard.
"Thank you for using the new option – BongaCams Lawyer Help.

They refer to the fact that i enabled that DMCA protection logo while i stream live there? Cause i never manually sent an inquiry?!

This could be a solution, i have to figure it out lol!
On bonga i used firefox + that nano plugin that provides hd quality stream, that nano thing is not working with chrome, is not supported.
So, work SM on Chrome and bonga on firefox. Sounds doable, right? LOL
So have to dig for the sound settings in firefox, if u guys know where they are, i used chrome more than firefox here.

chaturbate and mfc are set up like that too somewhat . he might have clicked the wrong button and cancelled it or was really impatient and hoping others would join in. its really hard to do group shows on token sites unless you have somewhat of a good group of regs already because what will happen is one person wants a show but cant/wont want to pay full price so they try and start a group show but no one will join . i dont think you should set it up for 2 ppl - keep it at 3 because you need to make it worth it for you to pull urself away from public show and since the private rates are locked in by the site theres no way you can play around with rates and find your sweet spot
^^ Amazing Snowy, ty for the info xx, this is my 3rd attempt to work a token site after the MFC fail back in 2011, i also registered a chaturbate account later on (in 2012 or so) but was just testing it, did not know exactly to hustle that either so i went back on SM asap (lol) as SM was working for me a lot better back then.
Now i need to make bonga work, SM is not what it used to be, i need another egg simply especially after i found out about the system requirements for 720p i was not informed properly about from the beginning when they provided the new settings unoficially .... that just pissed me off too much ...
You on bonga too snowy? xx

Mfc is worth persevering with. I make more on there than on BC but only by a little. However there ARE days where awesome tips happen and I think the two sites work really well as there are more privates on BC and tips on mfc in my experience.

I have a year old M7 I7 envy notebook and use the encoder and very soft. I followed Hyori's instructional video to split sites. I split BC and SM last week but the BC guys said my stream wasn't very good. Don't know if that's true. I used the recomended settings, but maybe I should downgrade it even more? I could feel that things were slowed down a bit. I did get privates on each site, going to break mode on SM and then switching to break on BC vice versa. It's fine. Takes getting used to, but I'm going to do it again today. Honestly, I don't know anything about computers. I can split CB and Bonga with no complaints, but I know and I can feel that encoder sucking the energy from my laptop. I have another simple HP notebook that I'm just gonna add a C920 cam to, and split using 2 laptops SM and Bonga next week

so funny how every site is different for each girl. I make more on BC than MFC. (I make more on CB than any site) But I'm keeping my hopes up and using MFC while splitting because I also believe it's worth persevering with. One day that big tipper will show up
Yes i noticed the difference between the flash based stream and nano encoder before i upgraded my system, it was not even working to have that hd option enabled while trying to splitcam with manycam old version, it was gray tho i was able to use hd on bonga just with my c920 logi cam.
For the slower systems or for the people who stream more sites at once it will be too much of resource killer, yes.
Luckily i wanna stream just 2 sites and for me the combination of sm 720p & bonga HD is doable, it uses +- 60% cpu.
I'll go for it for a good stream quality now that my pc allows it :)
Ty for pointing this out tina, this will be helpful for the girls who might need to decide what stream option to use on bonga & dont know the difference in consumption. xx

I'm just gonna add a C920 cam to, and split using 2 laptops SM and Bonga next week
Well look at you MISS THANG! Get all the monies
I have a year old M7 I7 envy notebook and use the encoder and very soft. I followed Hyori's instructional video to split sites. I split BC and SM last week but the BC guys said my stream wasn't very good. Don't know if that's true. I used the recomended settings, but maybe I should downgrade it even more? I could feel that things were slowed down a bit. I did get privates on each site, going to break mode on SM and then switching to break on BC vice versa. It's fine. Takes getting used to, but I'm going to do it again today. Honestly, I don't know anything about computers. I can split CB and Bonga with no complaints, but I know and I can feel that encoder sucking the energy from my laptop. I have another simple HP notebook that I'm just gonna add a C920 cam to, and split using 2 laptops SM and Bonga next week
Laptops are not the best when about split camming at that level Jess, desktops are much better.
You dont wanna know about my experience with a laptop i used to cam on SM for a while some years ago, it was bad, i think that was one of the reasons my ranking on sm took a dip that time together with gold shows being introduced, that laptop i used was slow as fuck and got very hot after 2 hrs of streaming, when it started to lag and become very very hot i had to log off and let it cool down, dont wanna remember what i been thru omg.
You mean u used the HD720 settings on sm plus ur other site(s) thorough verysoft?
Going lower than hd720 (i hope that's what u call "recommended settings"?) will lower ur placement on sm. Better the other option with the other notebook and another cam.
Yes i was thinking of the break option on sm too but how long a pvt show on bonga can last? or is just impossible to predict? average minutes maybe if u can tell from experience? i mean, do guys on bonga stay in pvt for long or short or depends on the client and what they looking for? I do fetishes too, is there a market for fetish guys? I do vanilla softcore nude shows and foot fetish, some domination, easy stuff, not into hardcore things lol. xx

For those of you who are using Lovense toys you can enable the hidden mute tab through Chrome: http://fieldguide.gizmodo.com/mute-noisy-tabs-in-google-chrome-1683215637
I do this to discourage guys from holding back on tipping because they can hear other sites tipping. Some days I mute CB and others MFC. Pretty sure you can mute Bongs. Works like a charm.
Jess, u mean u split sm 720HD + bonga flash based (the regular one) or bonga nano encoder (HD)?

Laptops BETTER be ok because I just spent a fuck ton on a 6th gen i7 with 16gb, 970m graphics primarily for splitcamming. My i5 desktop and old i5 lappy handle splitting mfc bonga and aw ok though I don't external encoders except for justcamit.
^^ Sounds like a great machine, pls report back how good its working for u, wish u good luck with it xx

Yeah I use the HD 720 settings on sm and I only split Bonga with SM. I know my laptop isn't the best, maybe later this summer I can put some cash aside for a desktop. ;-)
Yes, I use verysoft. I just started splitting like 10 days ago? I like it. Takes the pressure off one site knowing I'm working 2 with and 3 sites when I split CB, Bonga and MFC. I feel pretty confident now.
I'm not sure how long the break option lasts on Bonga. i'm splitting today and no complaints. I do sign into Bonga with the "good" settings for my stream. And I just remind the guys on BC that pussy is for private
