Even if they were offering 100% I couldn't sit in free chat on that site for 60 hours. It'd be taking my attention away from sites with paying traffic. I do work the site but only splitcamming for side money.

How is everyone doing on IML lately? Just checking on all you lovely ladies. I've noticed how dead it is, and guys just wanting to waste time ( moreso than usual haha). Hope all is going well for everyone!
Since doing very well on SM for the past couple of weeks, I'm pretty much done with imlive.. Can't charge much to make anything and the beggars are hell. What's funny is that I JUST missed the $50 min on there last pay period by like $0.30 and it's been moved over to this one lmao...
Guess I can suck it up and do one last show on there to get my last little bit of $ from there.
I'm an hour and 10 min away from no more FREE LIVE CHAT HOURS! WHOOT :D Took me 5 years to complete, lmao. IML has its moments that's for sure but I'll be permanently in paid only mode so I'll see what happens after today.
Good to hear you are almost done with the mandatory hours, yaaay! I havent been on much lately, so I cant say much about current traffic, but a couple weeks ago it was mighty quiet.
I made it, bbs, I fucking MADE IT! :D Okay, kk, it's not even that serious doe, hehe. I clicked the "pvt" button in my room and sat there for about an hour and then I talked to a friend that choose "regular" option on her end so I did the same and BAM had privates. Weird. Anyway, I love the silence of having no guests to try to convert or converse with and I even got my first tip item thingymabob the guys can give you which was awesome. I put my rate back at $5.80 so I'm just chillin' now and happy to be able to use IML as another paid only option. Took me long enough!
Congrats Kortney! I'm trying to get there myself. Lmao, I hopped on IML for the first time in forever and right now I have 85 guests in free chat, no one with credits and no one talking. Welcome back me. I did make $36 right off the bat from my awesome reg though so that was nice.
You can make it too!! It is much nicer not dealing with all those freeloaders staring at your every move lol. And best of all, I love when good regs like yours come and make your day start great.
What's strange is that I make the same amount if not more than I did when I was in FLC. I also put up a teaser video of me in various *cough* positions and fetishes so that when the guys hover over my photo they'll be pushed just a bit to come in my room. I had a reg pop in and out and do 6 shows with me back to back. I bet I'd get even more guys if I go down to $4.80 but I don't wanna :D
How do you check to see how many more mandatory hours you have???

You have to be logged in to view it. If it reroutes you to the log in page then just log in and go to that link again.
Do any of you ladies participate in ImLive daily pay?
On ImLive I do private chat only mode. If I sign up for ImLive daily pay, they're not gonna make me start over with that mandatory Free Live Chat bullshit, are they?
You have to close your current account with them when you transfer in and begin with a new one. However, you can technically temporarily pause free chat the second you log into video chat and stay there if you want. You have have to remember to repause it after a private since it will take you back to free chat after those three min are up afterwards.
Only done 8 hours out of 120...LOL why did I think it was more close to 50..?
Just had a meeting with Chloe, a few hosts, a technical person, and thought it might be nice to share the information with you all about a new feature coming out.
Not sure If we're supposed to let the cat outta the bag :-X , but as you know text chat is gone... that left space for a new feature in our host page. Happy hour is getting a revamp !!! thank goodness. The percentage is the same as what you are currently earning, but the amount is 75-300 earning potential I believe, so $6 for a whole hour won't be happening any longer.
It almost seems as if the testing being done on the site is what derailed alot of things as far as functionality goes because this feature has been under construction for 3 months and that is around the time when we were having problems camming on imlive. It may be out in a few weeks, because they have actually set a deadline for the coding.
I know many of you are on imlive because it is not tip based. However, many sites are now this way and imlive may be following suit in some ways. As far as we know, this feature is like a mix of cam connection and streamate and will not be replacing flvc. It's supposed to inspire you moreso than the current happy hour because there are themes and activities involved that can be chosen at the hosts discretion. The new feature has only those who direct you to see your show and ratings from them using this feature have their own category (like responsiveness, etc have their own rating) so no more "She asked for tips 1 star!" showing up in your reviews.
We haven't done happy hour for obvious reasons... but after this comes out, we might actually participate. It kindof sounds fun. There are areas in which you can do the activities of your choosing. A gym for example might be an option and then there are activities like yoga and weightlifting or you can make your own. We're still not clear on how you set your goals of what you will do if they reach it, but we do know that even if they leave, you will be able to keep what you have earned.
The high tippers names will appear on the screen and hopefully cause tipping wars. there will also be an option to mute all of them if you don't want to see what they type (finally). It's a once a day thing just like happy hour is, but the minimum will be $10 instead. When you reach over $100, your placement on the site will be in a top spot for 24 hrs.
I brought something to their attention and actually saw the coder writing down our suggestion. Since there will be more members viewing and tipping and hanging out, the capping will likely get worse. I suggested a watermark of the hosts name or imlive to reduce reuploading. He said An imlive watermark may not be possible since they have thousands of affiliate sites and their name might be an issue but at least we got an answer, and quickly at that. They may change things around before releasing it, so don't quote any of this to be 100% accurate, but it is something that will be released soon... so I hope all the kinks are worked out.
Hope all you hosts are doing well, and I'd love to see what your opinions are on the sparse(sorry) details of this new feature.
^ my thoughts on this are why i dont like gold shows its the token site hustle witch is a lot harder and a lot more energy u have to put into it for it to work for a very little percentage . u might as well go on a token site and make it work for u if u wanna do things like that IMO. How is it guaranteed $75-$300 if u do it?
It's a minimum and maximum that can be charged for the show as far as we know, so hosts would make 30-35% of that depending on what their current percentage is. Yeah, the hustle is hard on tip sites and the capping is equally as annoying so we'll just have to wait and see if this is a good thing or not.
The new Happy Hour sounds... interesting, I guess. As someone who pretty much never does HH lol. But can I just say how sick I am of private-based sites' slow conversion to tip sites? It's irritating that they're pandering to the cheapest guys and I don't know what they expect to get out of it. I highly doubt any girls who like doing tip shows will switch over to IML given that IML's percentage and traffic suck compared to all the current tip sites and I doubt this half-assed approach is going to attract any new customers either. And isn't part of the draw for HH that they can "test drive" a girl for 2 min at a time? With a pre-planned show that draw goes away.
Sorry, I know I'm being negative as fuck, I just get really pissed off whenever a private-based site takes another step toward being a public show site, no matter how small the step. (See: SM's $0 gold shows)
EDIT: However, re-reading it I'm excited for some of the changes such as the new minimum, ability to silence all guests and (this one in particular) how only directors will be able to rate/review. Most of my apprehension toward HH is related to bad ratings... even though I've never gotten one to my knowledge but I largely do pvts and IME the cheaper the show the pickier the guys. So maybe this isn't all bad. IDK. I just really hate tipping sites and I get pissy when one of the only largely pvt-based sites left makes changes like this.
Im a little confuse on how HH will work. Are the guys gonna pay for the full hour and that's why we get the increase? or are we just getting a cut of the money they already pay per min?
