Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I got this in my email today:
Rude Producers,
Great News! Launching Monday July 2, 2012 Rude Privates gets a well deserved makeover after Rude.com and StreamMate forms a new partnership.
PLEASE READ THIS IN IT'S ENTIRETY IF YOU STILL WANT TO DO PRIVATE SHOWS ON RUDE.COM!
This new partnership allows Rude.com producers to become a RUDE STUDIO MODEL if they would like to participate on the new Private Network powered by StreamMate whom provides the backbone to 100's of private networks. Some of the HUGE players in our industry such as AdultFriendFinder.com, HustlerCams.com, CAMS.com, PornHubLive.com, SpankWireLive.com, StreamMate.com, ect. All use StreamMate's backbone to power their private platforms.
RUDE even went one step further on the development side and RUDE users will still be able to use our current Chip system on the new platform. We didn't want our users being confused with two accounts or currency systems so the same chips RUDE users have been using since we started will carry over and back as many times as they want to visit the New Private Network and coming back to RUDE's many other sections. Actually, it is such a seamless process that the users will never even know thanks to both of our development teams dedication.
What does this mean for you?
1) Our new network will host as little as 400 online users at a time and up to over a 1000 online at a time compared to the average of 15 online previously.
2) You will be exposed to 100's of cam sites at a time instead of just one using our new private broadcaster powered by Rude and StreamMate, which means 100 X 's the exposure and chance to continually get more shows.
3) When broadcasting, if the user is coming from Rude.com, Rude Models will get top over any other models from the network's StreamMate powers.
4) Your Private Archives will now be shown to the 100's of others networks instead of just at RUDE.com for more exposure and earning potential.
5) More bells and whistles to increase revenue through Happy Hours, Private, Party, Voyeur and Fan Club Shows.
What are the changes that will happen?
1) You will need to apply HERE if you would like to participate in the new system so we can sign you up.
2) You will get a new broadcaster URL once you are signed up and confirmed.
3) You currently get paid 50% of all chips spent on your private shows, that will be reduced to 40% to offset the cost of our new partnership as our take home decreases as well.
4) You currently have no access to other networks when broadcasting through Rude.com but now you will be broadcasting to 100's at the same time and earn 30% of all revenue from users not from Rude.com
Why should I stay on your network and not just go directly to StreamMate?
1) You will be mixed in with all the 100's of models and not appear at the top when users come from Rude.com
2) You will only earn 30% since you will be considered a studio model.
3) You will not have the opportunity to earn 40% when RUDE users purchase your shows.
4) You will now have all the added features mentioned above that RUDE has never been able to offer you.
If you are ready to get started please click HERE and submit the new forms. Within 48 hours or less one of our Studio managers will be contacting you with instructions and your new broadcasting link.
In order to have your application reviewed in time for the launch please submit your application by Close of Business Friday June 29th, 2012 5:00 PST.
All applications will be processed, just please note they may not be processed in time for the July 2, 2012 launch.
Best Regards,
Brett

Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I wish I could figure it out.. Maybe someone who works on there can tell me?? Can you still work on Streamate and Rude Independently and seperately. Or do you have to choose?? I choose SM of course.. lower percentage but NO chargebacks.. 15% of my pay on rude is chargebacks... So Can you be part of both... or do you have to pick one?
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I would be real careful because of the wording "studio model". It would seem anyone that signs up through their link would be bound by the same rules as anyone else that signed up through a studio (not being able to sign up for another account for a year, and also not being able to have more then one account) so I would assume, signing up for their account would get your personal SM account closed wouldnt it? You would be switching over from an independent account to a studio account and for what? to be able to earn 40% from the limited Rude guests when they appear? besides that I dont see any other perks working for their studio...
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
YES!! that is my point! so i won't sign up until i know... SM is my main site... even on a good day i only made 300 bucks a month on RUDE...I mean really?? I am going to give up SM for that?

Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
Wow just reading that and I started laughing. It's funny how their ad was made to sound like there was a benefit to this. All I hear is " YES WE ARE FUCKING YOU OVER, PLEASE JOIN US AND BEND OVER."
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I wonder if there chargeback policy will still be implented?? I did cam shows on there since 2007 and 10-15% chargebacks.. which means i gave away that many shows.. so the fact that they are willing to pay you an extra 5% for shows means nothing? So I would rather work on SM.. NO chargebacks .. so i don't get it?? I just don't .. there isn't many who do cam privates on rude.. so i dunno?

^^^^I'm assuming the second highlighted portion is a deliberate obfuscation on the part of Rude
Even setting aside the Rude chargeback issue, the only chicas who would benefit from this would be chicas who do more than half of their paid shows with Rude customers (at 40%), which is highly doubtful, as sm has more traffic. Since chicas who sign up to sm through Rude get only 30% from sm customers, they lose a percentage overall if more than half of their paid shows are performed with sm customers. A chica who signs up on sm solo gets 35%, so where is the benefit exactly!?!
Sneaky tactic, horrible business plan as seen from a performer perspective. It is kinda sickeningly funny to realize how stupid some companies perceive us to be.
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
And everyone wonders why i am cranky.. been getting fucked up the ass since 2003... really?? is there any way to work smarter.. i find myself working harder and harder for lil reward. Makes me wonder.. .. and the only reason I continue on with cam.. is out of sheer optimism.. and I know if i work 50-70 hours a week i can make more money than a normal 40 hour job...LOL...so yea you wanna have a good life?? be prepared to get burnt out!

Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
Well I just dont know anymore, there is a thread in the Rude forums, which claims they are eliminating chargebacks (for cams shows only- can still get chargebacks on vids and content) and eliminating as well the 100$ holdback policy and are now going to be paying out every 2 weeks... They seem to say you can work both SM and Rude. But the Rude guy wasnt too clear. One girl asked if it was possible and his answer was "sure if you have 2 computers' (wtf?! never heard of splitcamming?) The downside seems to be you can no longer have a still pic up on rude, you have to be constantly streaming in free chat/lobby, since its now streamate, and the majority of shows youre going to get on there are going to be 30% rather then 35%. So I dont think its worth it but to each their own.
I would still check with SM support before signing up with Rudes studio just incase though.
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
RUDE.com is a SCAM point blank ...... any sucker working there is stupid.... that site has 1.2 million ads to competing websites...... they traffic jack before you even get the new customer signed up..... duh!!!!!!

No, streamate doesnt have any of that.
It's streamray, lol.
They are not affiliated with Streamate and I can not believe they made such an idiotic mistake as to put the wrong name down!
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I think its probably best to just steer clear of Rude as they dont know what they are doing as today a model asked on their board "Ok Im unclear on something is the site we are parterning with Streamate, or Streamray??? Bcs they are two different sites as far as I knew. all the info on the forum is stating Streamate, however, when I went to the application its saying Streamray???? and the features listed for this partnership are part of the latter sites platform not the one ending in "mate" can I pls have clarification on this matter?? Thanks"
And their official answer was "It is all the same company, they also own FriendFinder Network, Hustler Online, and Cams "
They are NOT they same company. Rude clearly has no idea what they are doing or what they got themselves into.

Duuuuuuuuuuuude! I'd love to see their face when they realize it. :D
Apparently I cannot insert youtube videos properly. I'm too dumb LOL.
Re: Breaking News Rude is becoming a studio
I noticed this was wondering if I could add back my spycams from rude. makes me wonder if I will get in trouble from streamate and rude when I broadcast at the same time. 4
I have been thinking of going back to webcamming more regularly then I am now since there are financial goals I want to reach and need more then just escorting income to reach it.
it sucks I have been out of the webcam loop for so long it actually feels foreign to me.
