Block Sessions on Streamate
I currently have this disabled... but I'm wondering if I should enable it? Do you girls think it's worth it?
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
I like it. It doesn't happen very often for me, but usually it's worth it! One thing I hate about streamate is the sheer number of people moving in and out and how quick the shows can be sometimes, so having a nice 30 minute block is cool. I don't mind.
I once banned someone from my block show and still got paid for it. Still mystified by that. ;)
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
I agree with Bun. The only time it annoys me is when they purchase a block after their time they are still charged your discounted rate til they or you disconnect. I had someone buy a 15 min block and stay about 45 min. He's lucky it was a slow day or he would have been cut off after his 15.
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
I was under the impression that we're penalized if the guy who buys the block session leaves before his time is up and doesn't immediately connect again. I have a guy who buys 30 minute blocks and then leaves around 20 or so. If I'm just making free money, great! But knowing that they send you a thing about, "we'll let you know when it's SAFE to disconnect" that makes me nervous.
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
I had a guy book a 15 block session and he was there for about 5 minutes when his internet/computer died or his boss entered the room (lol). I still got paid for the full time. It was a couple of days ago so I keep checking back to see if it will change because I'm curious, but so far so good.
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
Ok for some reason I can't see where to enable or disable block sessions. Someone please let me know. thanks!

Yup it's not on my profile at all. I have searched. I just got this account with PJ's daily pay. It was on my old account but not this one. Now I am confused. wtf.

hmm that's weird! i'm not with daily pay (yet lol) so I'm not really sure what's up. maybe you can contact support?
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
Can't answer this from a camgirl's POV, but from a marketing perspective and a best "educated" guess on how customers view this option... buying blocks of time has always been more appealing to me than a pay-per minute purchase. It just seems to be a more sensible approach to buying the right to spend time with a girl in private... I'm more confident that I know better what I'm paying for.
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
They're supposed to have 2 hours to reconnect if they cut off. I had someone buy a 15 min block and at the 5 min mark his internet must have went out. He came back and when the accept thing came up it said "(so and so) is requesting a 10 min block session."

A lot of streamate's features are turned off by default especially if you are signed up under a studio. You will need to contact smsupport and request that they enable the feature for you. [ability to enable/disable block sessions is normally one of those features disabled by default if you're with a studio]

Why does it upset you? If your still making the same rate I would think you'd be happy to stay with the guy and not have to bounce back and forth between private and free chat?

Doesn't upset me really. And it is nice to stay in one long pvt then a bunch of little ones but knowing I'm getting paid less than what I have my rate set at for an extended period of time is a little annoying.

True, but usually in my experience staying in a block/post-block results in higher revenue/hour of camming because you dont have all of those efficiency losses associated with bouncing back and forth.
Re: Block Sessions on Streamate
I like to use it! From time to time it's nice knowing your guaranteed a long pvt, instead of some stupid quickies and if they leave u still keep the money. :)
