Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
Grrrrr..........their fetish shots approval is BS...most of what they want for the pics is seldom what the guys actually ask for!!!! Take foot fetish for example...they suggest "polish, ankle bracelet, toe rings" Seriously? !!!!! Foot guys get turned on by BARE FEET, the soles, footjobs, what color toes you have, seldom the jewelry angle......So I take a great pic of myself polishing my toes..they decline it saying it doesn't capture the fetish!!!!! WTF????? Same for cuckold....Most of those guys want to hear about you liking big cock, creampies, BBC, etc......not lock them up in chastity (which falls more under domination and orgasm denial if you ask me) They decline my awesome pic for that too...I wrote them, not that I will hear back, but I said suggested they actually get familiar with these fetishes and what MOST Men actually want in those shows..

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
MY pictures were rejected too lol. As with any new feature, they have to get familiar themselves, I think, with approving which snapshots. Crazy though huh? I was like what?!? lol I'm not stressing over it. I will wait til the "kinks" are worked out til I submit again lol Glad I'm not the only one who had this problem. Peace to you and much success!

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I also had issues with them, and they did not want to approve the snapshots - they say they are not good enough quality. I think they want studio shots or something.

Add in my rejection notices as well. Though I dont think its necessarily studio shots they are after, (very few of my pics were accepted and all my pics are self shot), I do not know why many were rejected. All I got was email saying it didnt fit the fetish.....and...I just dont know how Im supposed to take a photo of, for example, me cuckolding somebody when I work in girl alone, though I do tons of these types of shows, (mostly talking), take a picture of the words? Like Vet CamGirl said, hopefully they will get this one figured out but in meantime, hey, I still appear on the pages of IML for the individual fetishes I chose, rejected photo or not, soooo...

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
this whole fetish thing seems like all the issues you get over at live jasmine (both sites cater to non English/European modesl) they just dont understand ANYTHING it seems. porn is not all about glamour and being cute and pretty and looking like a fucking barbie doll and .99 per min .
toe rings ankle bracelets? like seriously the site kinda lost even more credibility for me they dont seem to do their research and want to run their camsite in a lala land of how they want things to be not how the real world works. for me the site was only good for me during my trail period when i was at .98 per min i think the guys do the same thing they do on live jasmin they find the new fish for the cheap rates use her up then throw her back into the sea and if she dosent look cute in a french maid dress that barely covers anything thats a size 0 they beg and demand she does everything for free or expect her to talk for free all day and keep her going by saying they'll go pvt when they 'get to know her better'. and never plan on going pvt because theyre cheap rude demanding assholes .

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I was going to say, is it normal to spend about 2 hours in free chat and only get 2 very short privates in that time on iml? (between 2am and 5 am EST). I even used the hotspot option. I am in the shy girl category..should I move to a regular category? I am working on my 120 free chat hours and it's such a draining process. I'm 5 hours into it so far. Do people with money go straight to girls who broadcast privately and not free chat? Anyway, the promise of "no free chat" eventually is the only thing that keeps me going. I could really see myself splitting iml/aw and cams in nude down the line! lol All I get are guys looking for a bride/gf. I am not putting much effort into "converting" anyone at this point, so it's going to be a lot of hours sitting there doing nothing I suppose. Just wondering if it's worth the effort, but I guess I'll keep doing it in the background while I'm working the only site that does bring me some money.

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
Try the regular girl section-that's where I have had luck. Although I have to say, I will hustle, and hustle HARD on I'm Live and I feel it is better to splitcam or something with that site. Guys are horrible cheapos there-very much so. Not to say you won't make money, it just won't be the "easy" money I've made on some other cam sites.
But yes change it up, and maybe if you offer fetishes too? And try different hours, different days? I noticed that too late at night and I wasn't making $$ on there.
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
Thank you JenniferNorth. I have asked support to put me in the regular category because I couldn't find it anywhere in my profile to do it myself. I am really not that shy anymore lol but iml was one of the first accounts I opened way back before I started camming and it remained under the shy category. I am definitely still working on my hours. I knew it probably wouldn't be busy at night, but I couldn't sleep so I figured I'd get some hours out of the way while I catch up with CC gossip.
As for fetishes.. are there any books or websites for newbies to learn about the more popular ones? Every time I try to google stuff like JOI or SPH I just get porn sites with videos, and I really hate watching porn for some reason. lol Yeah I have a basic idea of them, but I'm not confident enough to venture there yet. I feel like I have more learning to do. English is not my first language so being creative on the spot with verbal dirty entertainment is very hard for me. I can't even begin to understand the psychology behind JOI. I'll be darned if anyone tells me how to cum.. no way jose I like doing my own thing in my life. lol

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I started before the free chat was mandatory and I only do it once in a blue moon. My advice is to hang in until you finish your free chat. I sit in text chat only and wait for shows. I will type to people to answer questions and to entice a little like one vague sentence. I won't say what I will do in the show but I'll type something like " you probably won't last a minute." I respond to fantasies if it gets slow.
I charge 4.80 or 3.80 I am a BBW and I average around 15-25 an hour but I do not work a regular schedule. I think if I did and used the vids I would make a bit more. I'm going to try it and report back next month.
I left the site for about a year so I lost all my regulars so I'm starting over in some ways.
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
Oh gosh...someone chime in with a link, I thought there was a place that talked about various fetishes but I cannot remember it?
Bluebunny-
I've found for JOI they like you to have a dildo or vibe, and often I've been asked to place it between my legs like it's my OWN penis, and give instructions while they see you going fast/slow whatever.
For SPH it often varies, a lot of the guys I got were also sissy boys and wanted me to make fun of their cocks, laugh about the size, compare them to my pinky or something like that. It varies on the guy. I'll usually ask in a sexy voice "are you a sissy boy" etc etc during free chat/paid chat. Usually they will ask/get a feel before they take you pvt, but feel free to ask away during pvt too.

I don't think the issue is what kind of models the site caters too, it's what kind of member it advertises to
also, in this fierce competition between sites, they need something to set themselves apart through, so they chose a certain image
it is true that many of the LJ custies are from European countries, so they have a different image of what they want in a girl. Also, these girls from the Eastern Europe, have a different mentality than the American girls, in more ways than one.
Firstly, if the minimum wage is 1.5 $ per hour, it's logical they can make more by just staying at 0.99.
Second, even well paid jobs are paid bad. In my country, the average hourly wage is 3 $ per hour. That is, the salary for a well qualified, experienced, college educated person. Somebody who speaks 1 or 2 languages, besides their native tongue, at a very good level. Somebody who could be a professor, a legal advisor, a physician. And if they work for the state, many times they can get their salaries 2 months after the due date.
Third, it's hard to find even those jobs now, like everywhere.
Fourth, the studios are very powerful in this part of the world, and they employ lots of girls and model all of them on a certain image, no matter the girls' wishes. Plus, they employ uneducated girls. I have nothing against that, just an uneducated person does not know a foreign language - so she has to attract people any other way she can. And even when they learn some words, they have no idea of cultural differences
Fifth, studios don't tel you shit about what to do, they just put you into a room and tell u, the sleeziest u act, the more money u make. That's it.
6th, the local forums on the subject are owned by studio owners, and they are very active there, so they say many misleading things. there are independent models speaking, but you really have to sift through things, and ...well, not everybody is able to do it. I learned soooooo much from SW, that it can't compare.
7th, every site has some kind of recipe for success - probably there are very few extraordinary performers who can really bank on any site, but the rest of us normal gals have to find what works for us. Of course it's alays easier if you look gorgeous, are outgoing and have the right accent. If not, we play the hand we are dealt.
8th - yes, the accent is a thing. Very many guys just won't pay higher if you sound eastern european - no matter how good you write or how you look or what you do. that's life.
I think there could be more, but i'm not writing a book so...

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
when I was new and wanted to know more about fetishes. I didnt google the actual fetish, instead i googled things like, fetish mistress, fetish, not the actual description, ya know? And type in fetish stories, or mistress stories. Hope that helps you out a little bit.
Peace

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
What is up with Gold status members on ImLive that come into text chat and try to get me talking about things but they dont wanna pvt actually or if they come pvt they use the 20 secs or 1-2 min and leave then? (i work paid chat not free chat).
I am puzzled cause they have the gold status for a reason (they spent good money on site) but then use this status to freeload in hope they get attention from models that look up their status and think they will come pvt to spent good money on them? That's how i see it here. Thoughts? Thanks!

well judging how guys with credits like to wave a carrot in ur face about 'getting to know you then ill take u pvt if i like you' i'm guessing its the same thing they had a lot money at one point then it got too expensive for them to keep paying and now just throw around their status to toy with us.

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
My thoughts are they will spend if you let them know the status does not impress you. If they try that I want to know what you're about crap I tell them read my profile and comeback, and I don't say another word to them until they get a show. I don't care how much a guy spends on the site I care how much he spends on me.
I treat them all the same. You can ask basic questions to make sure we are compatible for a show, maybe 3 and by then I can suss out if you are for real or not. The ones who are playing games get ignored after the 3 questions, and those who are real get a tiny bit more attention and usually go private. To be honest I find most guys there who want private just go. I don't pay most of the customers any attention and it works for me.As soon as I see they just want to talk I start doing something else until another guy comes into the room. If they talk too much I kick them.

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I never banned or kicked anyone in a year of sporadic camming. I've banned a few since last week when I started iml. lol It seems my category updated so I'll give it another try after I get bored with SM tomorrow. I am having a really hard time ignoring these guys that just want to talk. IDK if I should tell them something mean to get them to shut up, or kick them. They don't shut up if I just ignore the room and do something else on the computer. I've started telling the ones looking for a wife that I will only marry for money, then I eventually kick them when I get fedup with their bs. lol
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I love banning people. works for me and keeps my happiness level higher.

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I was shocked that they have fetish categories for "fisting" and "watersports".. when I thought those were off-limits in the performer agreement. LOL..what a circus!
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
Ladies, how do you ban IML guys? I only see the kicking option. The sherif's office I don't even feel like filling all that info out. Is there even a ban button?
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
^ On the right (under "Control Panel") there's a button that says "Block Specific Guest". You can type or paste their name and block them that way. There might be an easier way, IDK, but that's how I've always done it.

They get to be Gold and VIP by being cheap too. They get points built up by buying discount club memberships and spending their real credits in happy hour. Some VIPs are the cheapest of them all. Status and (p) by the name dont get nothing extra out of meeee!
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I agree! I had several gold guys come in and chat and one in particular kept coming in and complimenting and I couldn't block people for shit. I typed in the name, then kicked and they just came right back in and annoyed the shit out of me. This douche kept talking the whole time but wouldn't budge in pvt. So yes, their "status" means nothing to me unless they meet me in my private. I hope this week is good because pay day will be on Monday the 2nd and I'm gonna need IML to work well for me these next few days.

Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
you also have the option to block just their text while in free - just click on the member's name and then u have a lil icon there with block text. it's really fun to use on idiots
-
Re: ImLive- No Charge backs
I may have to try that option euaici and make their text invisible. Maybe that might make it easier to ignore their presence.
