Re: Have a Question Related to Camming? Unsure Where to Ask? Post ANY AND ALL Here!
Random question, but I want to start on MFC next month. Was wondering if it would be better to do 2 split shifts at different times, or 1 long shift?

Honestly I think 2 split shifts is better, depending on how "long" a long shift is for you. The problem with MFC is if they aren't tipping, and you stay logged on for too long, your camscore starts to drop. I tend to log off and get back on later if it's slow longer than 45 minutes.

Some people argue that the brand recognition is really strong and that's worth keeping the 90s feel.
Of course, I know it means less income, it makes no difference at the end, etc... but is it possible to cam on MFC without showing the face or is it REQUIERED to do so?

I put my cam name then you put your street address in and then three lines for city and then put your city and state under "state" then zip. It works for me so that it only shows my state. I asked amazon to take out my city and they said no. But my friend got them to do it so sometimes you can get them to remove it. You have to actually speak to someone on the phone and tell them why I think. If you email them about it they either say no or can't figure out what u are asking .
As for being in a different country, you can tell them in your profile that you use a delivery service that amazon sends the package to and then they send it to you. They actually exist so you can ether actually use one or put a line in your profile saying " I use a delivery service in a different country or state so please let me know if you sent me something so I can be on the lookout for it" it's just a way to confuse them since my 1st week camming a guy found out my boyfriend whole name and city and state we live in and said it in free chat. I had my stage name listed in my address but the account was in his name and he has a very unusual name so anyone coulda found him on Facebook. It sucked

I'm using my iPad to broadcast on cam sites including streammate !
This isn't a question but I just found out that I can broadcast from my iPad pretty much on any cam site. Even streammate if I don't use the encoders, which I don't because I can't get them to look right. Anyway, you download the puffin app and go to the site and broadcast away. It's even in HD. I have an iPad Air 2. It also works on cell phones. Probably depending on how good your camera is relates to how good your stream is but I'm getting even better fps than on my laptop. I've never used a separate webcam,I always used the built in one because it's really good ...like super good plus I'm cheap. The only problem I have is with fps but I know that cuz of my lighting situation.
So now I just use that or I broadcast on my laptop on one site and on the iPad on the other. Today I'm gonna cast my screen to my tv with my Roku or Apple TV and see how that works. I'm not sure if it will work though cuz of the typing so scratch that. But I just wanted everyone to know about this option. I know we aren't supposed to use real names here but if anyone wants to pm me I can tell you my names on the sites and u can see what my stream looks like next time I'm on.

I made a decent amount of money during the first weeks but then it dropped down. I wondered why because I thought I don't do anything different but today I realized that I kind of block anything sexual besides if they tip for something thats on my menu and basically is just playing with myself with or without toys.
I've never been big into dirty talk, actually not at all. I still love to talk to them, about everything. But now if it comes to something sexual I just ignore it. The thing is I'm not even interested anymore in sex and men in real life. And I ALWAYS was so much. I'm pretty worried I'm not such cam girl material as I thought. I looooved it in the beginning. Now I rather clean the whole house instead of logging on because sexuality mostly just bores me. That makes me very sad because as I said, I've never been like that.
Any ideas how I can get my interest in it back? lol... I'm so worried you will say I should stop because it's not the right thing for me... :(
And another thing, like about c2c, actually I can't be bothered at all to watch random dicks if I didn't want to see the dicks of guys I like but yeah, they ask so often so I thought maybe I should do. For money for sure. I've had one today who's actually pretty good looking, me a few months ago would probably sleep with him in real life. Well, surely not saying I meet my custies but he's the type of men I like. And he asked me if I like what I see. And I just didn't know what do say. Looking at dicks is for me now like. Don't know, looking at an apple. It's an apple. Great. Heaps of apples out there. I have seen many. Nothing special. And I'm soooo bad in lying, omg. So what do you say when they ask you if you like them? Especially when you really have to lie because you don't like what you see. Do they actually believe what you say? I can't imagine some fat old guy would believe me if I tell him watching him makes me horny.
Wow that's all so negative. I wasn't negative at all a few weeks ago, what happened... :(
I know for a fact that many cam girls, even vets don't like sexual talk. They put "dirty talk in tip notes only" because we don't really want to dirty talk but if you have to do it, you're going to tip me. If you train them, they will do it especially on Chaturbate. Tons of girls have that in. Even the biggest ones. Even on MFC. MIss MFC last month doesn't put up with any type of sexual talk but she does cum shows etc. her whole show is watched by 1000 people and it's about anything but sex. Except she has sexual goals for tokens. Everyone's hustle is different but it IS a hustle for what ...probably most of us. Yes you can't hate your custies all the time , it will show through but you certainly CAN and should be yourself and if that means you're not flirting in free chat, then that is ok and can be very lucrative. On streammate it's kinda different and if you are in a private on a free chat site, they do expect flirting usually but I've had people say, do you wat my big cock in you? In a private and I say ...nooo not really but if you can pretend. They usually laugh. My Regs know that I don't want to screw them in real life. My fiancée joins me on cam sometimes and they've developed bromances with him. And we never have sex on cam. I make most of my money on CB in privates but I also have regs that tip big just because or to get to a goal. My best customer is a older woman who yells at me if I do stuff for her tips. She just want to talk to me and everyone else and have fun.
Also I put a post it note over their dicks in cam2cam . No one likes to look at random dicks. But I do say yes when they ask if I like how they look if they've paid me to view their cam or if I'm in privates. But I try to find one real thing about their looks or their penis or balls that is actually attractive and tell them that. It's no different if someone asks you in real life if something looks good. Are you going to tell them that, yes, your ass looks huge...drop a few?
Just be yourself. If guys wanted porn stars, they'd go to professional porn sites. I cried the first time I showed my tits online and I'm 45. But then I realized I didn't have to do anything I didn't want to do so when I feel like making boobs a goal, I do. If not, I dance like a dork or make my goal a wet tee shirt. Or play a game .
Be yourself or at least the best version of yourself. I think about it like I'm on a tv show and I'm the star even if I have ten people in my room. On streammate I just type to imaginary people until I get someone real and usually they want to go directly into exclusive cuz they already made up their mind. And they just ask if I'll do...so and so. And off we go. If I'm feeling frisky I'll sexy it up in exclusive .if not, I'll give them a great show without a lot of talking .
Also people do well on ignore lines on phone sex. Niteflirt and talk to me .com are doing pretty well. Or you can learn findom and never have to flirt again .
I also clean my house or do things in the kitchen on cam. I make more money baking things than anywhere else. Clean or cook topless and have goals. They change of the requisite cam girl background pulls in tons of viewers especially during the day. Just my 2 cents

Normally I don't ask people for numbers, but in this instance I'd really like to know how much money you're making on SM with an Ipad? I'm not doubting that it works, I'm just curious as to the income range or even paid chat percentage?

I just figured this out last week so I can't really give you a good example of how it compairs yet but it's not for people who use the encoders. As you know they are the preferred method at SM. You would lose your placement. But I can't get the SM broadcaster to not look crazy and pixilated so I've never used it. So far I've seen no difference in the percentage of time in paid compaired to my laptop on hd high. I never look at my placement but I have people coming in and out all the time with of course slumps sometimes. But it's the same for me. I don't make tons of money but only because I'm not on enough. When I get my ass on I'm usually pretty busy. But also I only started there like two months ago and I squandered my new girl status by not camming much plus since I don't use the broadcaster, I don't even have the needed 4.5 stars for gold shows. If I used the broadcaster I wouldn't switch to my iPad ever on SM but I have heard people say that even though they can use it, when they don't it doesn't affect their earnings, just their ranking on the pages. But if I was on the front page,or even the second, I wouldn't do it. But as for me, if I continue to make the same amount, I will continue to,use it sometimes. For other sites it doesn't affect them at all that I can tell. And I've seen a bunch of posts where people were saying they wish they could use their iPad or tablet to broadcast. So it's an option at least. I can let you know next week my exact percentage in paid chat on compare it to last month. As for the amount of money I make, I'm in the $500 a week challenge this week so we will see if I get there. I am mostly on SM but I do phrendly and CB and sometimes MFC rarely and PSO. But I only spend maybe twenty hours a week on everything . I am sure that lots of girls make more than I do. So me comparing my earrings to someone else's won't work. There's a lot of things I won't do even in private because I am having female problems so that hurts me. I charge 2.99/3.99 on SM. I didn't even have a dildo until this week since I didn't need it on cb so that has hurt my earnings potential on SM but I am still pretty happy with what I make and like I said, I haven't seen a difference yet and sometimes I don't have access to a laptop since I share it with my bf and he usues it for work so this is a nice option.Maybe I'll cam on it all week and see if it affects anything and let you know my percentage in paid chat and how many hours I put in on SM

I'm not using live.me but I've watched a lot of streams on there. It has it's own curreny. As for periscope I'm currently in the process of working out a way to charge for it. I have a private twitter that I want to start charging access to for new followers. But at the same time I want to find a way to create an added perk for existing followers like paid periscope access. Onlyfans didn't work out too well for me. This is the latest information i found on how to make your scopes private https://help.pscp.tv/customer/portal/articles/2016181

A loan to buy a laptop or just the webcam? If you have a built in webcam on your laptop just use that one to get started. Lots of people start out this way before upgrading to an external webcam like a logitech. Now if you need help getting a laptop try something like Rent-A-Center. But that does add up. Or take a trip to a pawn shop. Before you do that be sure to research computers to make sure you don't just wind up with any old thing. Here's a Computer Shopping Guide Someone a few post up top says they can stream from a tablet. If all you have to work with is a cell phone right now try selling snap chat subscriptions. Also there's alot of apps out here right now that have their own currency. Kik is developing a krypno currency for in app purchasing. Then theres live.me and the peeks app. A snapchat thread https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...mp-premium-101

Re: Have a Question Related to Camming? Unsure Where to Ask? Post ANY AND ALL Here!
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I took a (long) break from camming and I'm getting back into it. I was trying to apply for Flirt4Free yesterday and am confused that it looks like I'm applying under a company called "VS Media/VS Broadcasting." Is this actually Flirt4Free or have I somehow gone to the wrong place? I'm paranoid I'm applying to a studio and not the actual site.

just a heads up that the Boylen Modeling Agency just dropped flirt 4 free from their roster because their Models haven't made more than five dollars on the site combined. I'm not saying no one is making money there...maybe they just signed up and never worked. I just would have more than one cam site if I was going there.
Also I think the best way to make sure you don't sign up under a studio is to go the the actual site, scroll down and click, Models wanted or become a model.

Damn that sucks! I'm on streamate too but just wanted to try it. I hope it isn't that terrible...Thanks for the heads up. I did go through their website to apply; I just wonder why the application and emails have another company name. Maybe it's the company that owns them and other camsites too...? I'm probably being paranoid but not going to proceed until I know for sure.

If no address is tied to it when they go to checkout it will ask them to type in the address of where it will ship to. And you won't get it short of giving the customer your email to type in. You may as well just use your address to start with instead xD. Or get a po box in a different state, use a mail forwarding address. Or not use the wish list at all. And yeah you can ask for gift cards. Most guys associate gift cards with payment and not gifts though. Guys that want to send gifts won't buy gift cards most of the time.

Re: Have a Question Related to Camming? Unsure Where to Ask? Post ANY AND ALL Here!
most recommended camming stuff to buy under $10? i'm looking through ebay and putting different props in my cart: cute socks, pasties with tassles, mascara, anal beads, a glass dildo, tiara, foundation, and a choker. i'm trying to stretch what little money i have as much as possible and build a starting wardrobe. i would buy lingerie, but i don't think the stuff under $10 will fit me (size 26). thanks. :)
edit: i've spent hours reading on here and have learned i've been worrying too much about having as many props as possible. i still need some stuff i feel but that's just to be more comfy and feel like i'm in a persona. but
i have a very small amount of money from closing my c4s store and want to buy something. i am thinking tech stuff is the actually most important thing instead of having 100 dildos. i want a pink bluetooth headset that looks cute and will help me w sound bc i have to talk quietly while camming. i think this is a better plan than investing in more toys. i already have a small amount that will get me by until i make more money tbh!
i'm thinking out loud partially here and trying to get myself situated n prepared lol

HEY, so i stared less then a week ago to cam! yeah i felt dumb about not staring earlier... ANYWAYS. since then of course i've been checking my akka cam name on google and i found a lot of pic that people just upload to internet of my steaming OF COURSE without my permission,
I saw already about DMCA and another one that looks pink logo...
of course i know that i cant do much about it, i cant fight every single guy who try to make videos or pic of my show (and not even giving a token)
I saw that people more or less know that which are the countries where they tend to record more our cam shows, I would like to know which one are thise countries so maybe i could block them and see if i see some difference after that. :D

Re: Have a Question Related to Camming? Unsure Where to Ask? Post ANY AND ALL Here!
I would drop the pasties. You know you need to glue those on, right? Guys like nipples. High heels that are easy to put on and take off come in handy a lot.

Re: Have a Question Related to Camming? Unsure Where to Ask? Post ANY AND ALL Here!
How do you deal with jealous customers (well... ex-customer...) threatening to film you and to search for you? I don't know if the site will do anything about him, but although I blocked him he sends my fans and regulars messages insulting me and got a refund of the last tips he gave me just cause he was mad (and he got away with it!!!). From time to time he creates a new account and I just block him again, but should I take any special measures knowing he's there trying to get me on cam?

He'll get bored. These guys are morons with bruised egos and women issues. Soon he'll be obsessed over someone else so I wouldn't freak out too much. Just keep ignoring and blocking.
