Uhhh...just got this in my free chat? What is even going on lol...
^That sounds super sketchy..
I KNOW RIGHT?!?! I was like "Uhhh...how about no." haha.
I mean, I didn't even see this cat enter my room! Then he says that shit and insta-leaves.
I didn't think it was real, seeing as if this were an actual feature, prettyyyy sure there would be a site wide announcement, and not some rando coming into chat to make an "announcement"
Just thought this would be an interesting share haha
So what actually happens when you turn on external show? What is the feature even for? Why keep it if guys can exploit it and see your shows for free? Streamate never ceases to amaze me with their non-caring attitude
Hah! Knew it. Some people are just so sad. One would think/hope SM would fix it, but not holding my breath.
Just glad I was super cautious about it and didn't fall for anything stupid.
Bullshit like this needs to be exposed.
Thank you so much for clarification <3
Figured it was some sort of sleazy hacker/scammer crapola.
Thank you so much. I thought I was right. Although another strange thing happened during the show too Producer_X offered the show and I accepted/thanked etc. the countdown commenced, I got half the goal and started the show, then the generous man tipped in the rest - but about half way through the show Producer_X left and Producer_Y entered instead. I remember thinking it was a different one. So it is possible that Producer_X simply forgot that the generous man had got me to the goal when they were paying out compensations maybe? Either way a very strange TS and I haven't had one in forever so it just confused me to be honest. I will see it as a happy bonus this time.
The external feature is for people who have a member's only website connected to Streamate. So, since my site is connected if I activate "external show" it immediately sticks me in Private Chat on Streamate and members from my site can view my Private chat room for free. So if I'm putting on a show for my site members then Streamate members can enter for my private chat rate. This backdoor allows hackers to view for free without paying through SM or through my member's site.
I sometimes use it for GS. When your in party chat and you start a gold show there is a small check box at the top of the GS description box and if I check it then my members can watch the GS for free. If I have a member in my room I always quiz him before I turn on the external option though to make sure he is actually a member.
Although these last few weeks its rare to get a GS going cause traffic is so low so many of them just log on directly to SM and tip into the show :D
But if you have a website is a nice little extra to offer your members although I would never offer them a free private! GS is the most they get.
Anyone ever think that they're so good at what they do that they should be charging much more than what they currently are. BUT their current rates are highly competitive for such a good quality show that they stay busy and rarely have time in free chat and make bank? But then wonder how much bank they would be making if they raised those rates? That's me today, stuck wondering.
I did actually raise my rates the other week by a dollar each, but I didn't feel as busy, I felt like people were coming in and out but not spending. So I moved them back to where they were before and can easily make 200-600 a day. But then I wonder, a one or two dollar increase, could have the potential to double those figures IF I stayed as busy as I was on the rates I have now.
Dilemmas!
Nope I never wonder that cause I keep my rates high no matter what. You'll be moving into a different set of customers so just like when you started with your current rates, it'll take a little time to build up some regulars. Just stick with it and know what in the end you'll be making more. It's a good time to split cam and use other sites so you're not relying on just one and obsessing over it :D
I need to raise my rates and I've searched a few threads but can't find anything dated recently. Do we still email [email protected] or the web support? Thanks x
Grrr, I do NOT understand why this happens to me & it happens a lot.
Guy comes in, says hi, I respond & he LEAVES.
Or he says hi, then we get to the hru stage, I respond & say great & you? and he LEAVES.
What am I doing wrong??? :(
Today a few regulars had told me they are getting kicked out, booted out and it was not me WHen one finally came back after the 4th time coming into the room I asked .. I also had so many guys with (user left with disconnection issues) all day today.. it was horrible
Same thing kept happening to me! Dude entered Exclusive with me then "left" a couple times, the third time it finally worked and he said he had been disconnected :/ Also, my quality kept dropping like a mofo alllll day for no reason! Get yo shyt togetha, SM.
This is the 3rd year SM has held my money saying my tax forms were returned because of my address. My address hasnt changed in 3 years. Someone in accounting doesn't know how to read addresses correctly and it's getting tiresome. They better pay me on Friday, too. I emailed Liz and made sure to attach this month's cell phone bill with the same address on the damn account.
No, this has always happened, it's just worse on certain days & moreso recently, plus now SM tells you why the guy left. It says bad connection when they have one.
Now whether we can trust those messages I have no idea LOL, but they added that feature in a few months back.
I'd say it's more the #1, but it's driving me INSANE :(
Thanks :)
Another example of SM & how poorly coded & designed their site is:
You should NEVER EVER allow users to pick the same user name.
So every time I ask them to ban people, I get the same BS excuse that they can't b/c there's too many with those names. They say that even when they are NOT common names.
Now they are telling me that there's a number next to the user's name & I should give them that. I'm like WTF? Do you girls see any number next to their handle??? I sure as hell don't. :(
