Playboy Live What to expect?
I just got my application accepted over there which I'm quite excited about, but still have some paperwork to turn in. There is little information available out there about it though. Do they still pay hourly? Can you work on their everyday? What do you do in privates? Sorry to be a pain.

^^^^^^same questions^^^^^^ is there a link that you found this. I have nothing but time to do research on possible good sights. :)
Re: Playboy Live What to expect?
you have to follow a set schedule and put in at least 20 hrs on cam a week or they will fire you. they are very picky about what you do over there too, like no hardcore shows. i have never worked for them but was thinking of signing up with them when i first got into camming but after i did my research on them, i came to the conclusion that it just would not be worth it to me to work for them. the 20 dollars per hour wouldn't be worth it to me since other sites, have more money making potential. i think that they pay you 20 per hr or commission, what ever is higher you get. i am not sure if they are still like that now but you could check. also i heard that they're traffic is really sucky too, so you would probably just be stuck making 20 per hour. also, you cannot work on other sites while you are working with them, they make you sign a non-compete contract before you start working. my suggestion would be to not work on that site, it will only pigeon hole you. if it weren't for that non-compete contract, i would have tried them out for myself but i just cannot make that kind of dedication to one site unless i was making shit loads more and they were promising a higher commission percentage.

When I was there a year ago....you HAD to go to the studio which was far from my house. You can't play music. No "pink" no hardcore, no fetishes. You get paid hourly. I made about $500 a week and I was working there 12hours a day 6 days a week. I knew something was wrong. I asked them for my hours. They said I was taking 4-6hour breaks. That was NOT true. Their comp messed up my pay. They did their best to pay me back. I got in trouble for wearing duct tape on my nipples. I got in trouble for sucking a popsicle too sexually. I hated not having the FREEDOM. I love weird fetishes. I love being overly sexual. If you log off to go pee, you don't get paid for it. So you don't get paid hourly like you would a normal job. You do get pvts and I heard they can now tip in public chat. You can work their everyday. If you are good at camming, you can make MUCH more. If you are not that good, hourly pay is probably better. They keep their girls by giving them the hopes they'll be a Playboy model. PlayboyLive does NOT get you any closer to becoming a Playboy model. You can go to a Casting Call for that. I did enjoy the girls at PlayboyLive. Nice to get some human interaction once in a while. Again, it has been a year, but I hoped this helped!

Playboy Live is a joke. First of all if you are in So Cal, yes you have to cam a minimum 15 hours a week in studio. And any hours in the studio you are also put on Streamate at the same time. Playboy Live is also linked to Naked.com and the majority of their customer base comes from Naked, and Streamate guys are mostly looking for a hardcore show. Since this transition they have changed the rules. They are allowing hardcore and pink to be shown. Hardcore is paid chat only and pink, yes pussy, is allowed in free chat. Think about it, if you work for them you are only getting 96 cents a min. Sign up for SM or Naked on your own and make a better profit. Also they no longer offer the $20 an hour, it's just not worth it.

i know they are linked to naked but i can't find anything on SM and them. Also, their rules still state no hardcore. As far as the base pay goes, I am still not sure. I guess I will have to wait and find out after my 2257 tax document is approved and then I will share the info on here with anyone else who is interested.

I am giving you what I know from being in on the inside. These people broke my contract, and they stopped paying the hourly for ALL models back in September. If you want to know anything PM me and I can explain to you how they are breaking their own rules, the model agreement and how they are using streamate.
Re: Playboy Live What to expect?
I did a little more digging and you are completely right. What a shame. That was my last hope. I think I'm going to have to give up camming. :(
Re: Playboy Live What to expect?
^^^ Why would you have to give up cam? Why can't you work for another site?

don't give up so easily hun. if you want this career to work for you, you have to give it a good fight. :) one angle might not work out so well, so just try another angle. keep trying new things until you find what works for you. there is so many things you can do with camming then just doing live cam, just keep digging til you find ur niche. sooo many other sites out there too, it's too early for you to throw in the towel. it does suck sometimes, that's why you can't give up cuz all the benefits far outweigh the bs that we have to go through to get there. you will get there.
