dont understand streammate
so i finally got approved for streammate but cant figure out how it works. people come into my room as "guests" and leave after 2 seconds without even saying hi. Is there a way to turn off "free chat" so that i only get people coming in when they want to do a private?
does them showing up as guests mean they dont have a paid membership and thus i shouldnt even bother trying to talk to them?
i also hear this site gets a lot of traffic yet when logged into both adult work and streammate i get more people on adult work.

Re: dont understand streammate
No, guest users are still registered members. They'll come hang out in your free chat and they are able to take you private if they choose. You can't turn off free chat, unfortunately.
Streamate DOES have great traffic. Better than AdultWork most of the time. You do have to give it time though... maybe you just hit a slow period in the day.

Re: dont understand streammate
seems to be more free lurkers than AW

Re: dont understand streammate
Yeah, there's plenty of beggars/lurkers there. SM actually annoys the crap out of me.. I wish I could just use AW all day but I simply don't make enough money fast enough on there. Streamate on the other hand is like an instant ATM machine.
Keep trying, it'll get better.

Re: dont understand streammate
realy? i cant figure out how to entice people to go to private on streammate. been on for an hour and NOTHING. just people coming in and out and one person asking me if i do ass play

Re: dont understand streammate
SM definatly does have the traffic, and I think you really need to figure out the best time for yourself. I was on for 1.5 hours last night and no pvts. Lot of in and outs and lurkers but they don't pay the bills, right. The night before, logged on about the time I logged off last night and had two longish pvts in about an hour.. So for me, I know later is better.
Also make sure your listed in the right catagory... There are alot to chose from, and some with more "competition" than others. You may find you fit into one that you are not listed under that would help drive the "interested" traffic. And like Smurfette said, give it time. You just have to find your spot in the crazyness of SM.....

LAGIRL... are you using the Adobe Encoder?? You MUST be using the encoder to get decent traffic. Let me know if you need help with it. PM me if you like.

Other camming sites! Of course not.
Why in the world would they allow you to mention their competition? I'm curious why you would think that would be okay.

No they don't watch for free. If you see them enter into your pvt box then thats another paying custy... They pay the same as the person who took you pvt. But if you see someone enter your room in free chat then they can't see your convo or the feed. But they may be checking out your profile and pics while your in pvt. Definatly a good thing.. They may want to take you pvt later..

That is the screen shot "capture". You can request to have them turn it off which I recommend. It doesn't always catch the best likeness I have found. Thats what people see when thay log on to the site...

Re: dont understand streammate
Has anyone had trouble being paid by SM? A cheque of mine didnt show up so after 3 weeks I contacted them and they said I could pay 25 dollars to get it re issued or wait 45 days. Well I have bills so I cancelled it and paid the money. Two days later the late cheque came in which of course I couldnt cash because I'd had it cancelled. There was a note on it saying insufficient funds and there was no postage on it. I guess that held it up alot at the post office. I personally think I should get my 25 back since it wasnt my fault but I know that wont happen. Now the cheque I should have gotten last week (with my re-issued money added on to it) also hasnt shown up. I've never had a problem with them and pay before so I'm just curious if anyone else has had this problem?
