    Skull Regional Blocking on SM

    I had a "stupid" moment and posted the ad that I use to tell all my fans I'm getting online to my personal twitter instead of my camming twitter. I used one app on my phone to post to both accounts. I didn't even notice until husbands newphew sent me a creepy message about it the next day. I had previously decided I wasn't going to use the block option, but after the message, I immediately deleted the error on twitter, blocked two states that our families are in and installed another program to handle the other twitter account.

    I honestly am not super concerned about the nephew, but the pics are rather racy that I have on my SM page. Maybe I should just delete the pics and remove the block??? Any thoughts? I know this may affect my income, but I'm not sure how much. Any insight would be awesome!

    Thx!

    Here's a thought: any pics uploaded to SM,you CAN NOT delete! I sent them numerous emails asking them to get rid of my photos on my profile page for that very reason. They claimed "we can't right now because everything uploaded is being used for promotional purposes"! Plus the blocking feature never worked. So I made a new account and didn't upload anything! They're not going to just take advantage of my content for a measley 35%! Oh yeah and now the blocking feature works perfectly

    One thing girls, I have blocked: my state, my home country ( argentina) and mexico and canada ( I have some friend s stalker ex bf there, long story) and I can see my profile or when i m on line, my friend in argentina can see me, and one day i got a canadian guy in my room...lol
    So to make it short...the geographical blocking doesn t work very well.
    I m not sure where I read about it before, about the blocking having some issues, i don t remember well but now i know it s true.
    I contacted support and they weren t very helpful.... the guy said " if u have those places blocked they shouldn t be able to see u....
    Well... but i know for a fact that my profile is visible on all the places i have blocked...
    So anyways, just wanted to give u girls the heads up, don t trust the geographical blocking so much.
    I know it works on MFC and many sites I had work, but it doesn t work on streamate.
    Have a good one!!

    I know that if you use the cammodels.com link they can see your site and the blocking definitely doesn't work for that. I did notice that I am not visible without being logged on and when I checked myself after logging in I was not visable.

    it works well for me. im blocked from my home country and non members cant see me at all. I cant even see my self. I have to use a VPN to see my self. I also do not appear on cammodels.com or any streamate mirror site ive encountered. Needless to say i am extremely happy with it.

    I took all my blocks out.

    I noticed a huge drop in my traffic, however this was around the same time others were saying their traffic dropped too so I'm not sure it's because guys not logged in could not see me or if it was just general slowness. I'm thinking guys might surf without being logged in looking for me and think I'm not online.

    I wish I could use it but I'm afraid to do anything that might make it any slower.

    They say 24 hours but it took about 36 hours before mine updated and I could see myself after I removed all my blocks.

    I just checked to see if I could view your profile and I couldn't see it either! Weird. Have you contacted support?

    Well that's incredibly shitty. Thanks for the heads up. I'm even more motivated to make a different account with them. I'm unrecognizable in my wig. Lol
