anyone familiar with this program? He kept trying to cut his cam on but this what showed up. Like ten times he tried. I asked him what program he was using but this guy doesnt talk much. I asked him if he was using some sort of software and that maybe he hadnt selected the webcam within the software. Anyone know what this is?

Hye sexy ladies can anyone tell me if it's possible to send videos to a custie on sm?
No gthey paid in gold. Thank you babe :)
When you decide to have Streamate Mail you your checks, what's the return address on them? Roommates mom might freak out
Susie make sure that there are no links on your vid, no Twitter mention or website and if you use project maenad then tick the box to hide profile
Ahh bugger. My website url is on the videos and I didn't hide projectmaenad profile! Oh well. I got $15 gold for wheel spins but no one was interested in my new pvt/exc rates so u guess it won't matter if they ban me lol.
New rates take a few weeks to work for you on sm, I find each price rise attracts a different type of customer but it takes them a while to find you xx
^^^ Yes a significant rate increase especially when very new is indeed a difficult start & takes time especially when u not popular yet or have regulars, even for me with 6 years history on SM & many repeats & regulars/ semiregulars i know that if i increase my prices significantly these guys will not afford me anymore most probably so it'll take a good while to get new customers at the higher price & i really cant afford to wait as SM is my only site now & only income.
Not sure how lucrative is to start with very high rates as a new model?!
They're not very high, I've gone to 6.99 exl and 9.69 pvt to exclude the peepers.
^^^ They are still on the high range and i know many guys dont even have the exclusive option because they are new on site or they dont pay attention to look at the exclusive fee to see it's cheaper, they see the 1st option in the list and get scared if too high for them and leave w.o looking at what else is there in the list. SM is really not like AW or any other site, if u used to high fees on AW for example does not mean it'll work automatically on SM from the very start, maybe for a model with regulars/ repeats that pvt/excl strategy is working but not when u try to build a following IMO. Just trying to help, i read above u had a 2nd better shift with lower fees and now they dont buy with the new/ swap fees so this might be why. x
Lower fees than now but they were the same as I started with (5.99/5.99). I need to think up ways to get them tipping because they seem more willing to do that than go pvt. I asked for goldshows but they haven't responded lol. Thanks snowy, not meaning to be dismissive at all, all tips welcome. I just have no plans to train my guys to be cheap right from the start. 5.99 is only £1.65 to me which imo is not enough for my level of expertise and what I offer. I'm only really looking for an extra £20 ish an hour so I'll keep experimenting x
^^^ I get u susie, the biggest disadvantage for u british girls on SM is the exchange rate & low cut, it's just not very profitable to earn US dollars when living in the UK, i know this very well cause i lived there & i got less sterling pounds for my dollars, living here on mainland europe in my country the american dollar has a better value & i live better with the money i get for the dollars i make on SM.
Yes Gold shows could work better for you if u can do them, they can be very lucrative for some models, not me tho, i cant have success with them that's why i keep privates/ exclusives at a medium level so more members afford me, when u have gold shows u offer cheaper shows for some guys (cheap for them i mean, they pay few $ only for a show) and pvt/excl for the 'elite' let's say. Hope they enable the gold shows for u so u can try them, good luck :)
Most guys are not able to take us private today. Simple and plain. I've had the worst day in the whole month, and I've had three people telling me they're trying to go pvt, but just get a timeout error. One even told me he'd gone to technical help and they had just dismissed him. I'm logging out --nobody's got time for this.
Yeah I definitely got that sort of feeling as I had a few convo's which felt like they were on the way to producing $$ but then nothing. I've been reading this thread on and off for a while but only now I am on there myself am I seeing it as it is. WTF are streamate thinking of, seriously? Endless glitches and terrible traffic, are they doing it deliberately? :/
Do you still get the traffic boost wit the FMLE or has it got to be SMB?
Dear Streamate,
Stop. Fucking. With. The. Site.

As far as I can tell, you get the same boost with the FMLE as you would with the SMB (especially since the FMLE isn't in a state of fail half the time). I only use the FMLE at this point, and my placement is usually in the top 7-15 models, which is quite a bit higher than I think it ought to be given that I'm a serious slacker.
In my opinion and experience, using the FMLE instead of the SMB shouldn't drop your placement, but not being able to splitcam would make me VERY unhappy. Even if the FMLE is dropping my placement (which I doubt) it couldn't possibly be more than 2-3 positions, and splitcamming is 1000% worth it.
I've been wondering if glitches are happening because it makes no sense at all that I've struggled to make 2$ on there. Traffic has sucked but there's been a few guys that seemed like they were going to go pvt then they'd disappear and then keep coming into my room but leaving a couple seconds later like they're being booted. It's frustrating to not know if something technical is wrong because the stream seems fine on my end.
It's starting to feel like I'm just not meant to be on there.
Totally agree! If SM was what it used to be and I could make near enough what i make elsewhere then i'd definitely consider doing some exclusive hours there if only as an experiment. The way it stands though i just can't risk losing money for a site I only really want to make a bit of extra income on. In an ideal world I'd make it purely from indie rather than sitting in SM's pointless free chat but right now getting indie customers is proving really elusive for me lol.
I think SM is trying to make the site more compatible with mobile devices. My theory is that the fuzzy streams are the techs playing around with a resolution that will work across both ios and android platforms. And for some people that means they won't get to see a stream in HD. I played trouble shooting with some guys the other night and some said I was blurry and at the same time other guys said Nope I see you clearly. I think it's coming down to what device your using as well as the browser. Ive have a preset message telling guys on mobile to download puffin. That's probably the best mobile browser in regards to being able to see the entire page. I have a galaxy S5 and it works the best for me. I get a black box on Firefox. Chrome is meh. I may update my preset message to include Chrome as the best desktop browser to watch shows in. I know its annoying for some to have to do this but it works for me. I just login and try to make the most of whats left to work with. It can't be easy modifying a site in real time.
Susie how long has it been since you've been back on SM? I agree with MH it doesnt matter what encoder you use. As long as you use one and you will get a bump in placement. I rarely use the SM Broadcaster because they've programmed it to not detect splitcam software. I use OBS mainly. The other day I used two webcams. I'm gonna get this money no matter what :)
You know me, I am majorly impatient. It's been a week x
