    If anyone is curious - I was in the top 2 rows most of the day but I made even less than yesterday. I was checking around in other rooms (bored) at various points and it seemed like 1-2 users in most rooms, if any at all. There was definitely times I had 10 users and it was difficult to make a sale. I should've done gold shows but my brain was fried from staring at nothing lol. Usually on Saturday mornings my potential viewers are 100+ and today it was 30-40 most of the time. I will guess people are not online today, at least not MY ppl. I am still too new to know trends but I read a post that said presidential election season is sloooow. And nice weather in October? Hope it picks up for everyone. Still an hour til pay period ends!! Make that $$$$!

    **my niteflirt and skyprivate were also slow

    I see a lot of girls recommend it, but is signing up through vanessa at streamaterecruiting totally free? Like they don't take a percentage or anything? Also, what is the advantage other than faster customer service? Because I emailed over a week ago asking this question, and a few more about signing up through them and never received a response, so I'm not sure customer service is still any better than streamate direct.
    Boleynmodels was EXTREMELY disappointing for me and I don't want to find myself in a situation like that again, but because of BM I'm in a situation where I may need some extra help. Thanks

    They'll always get an affiliate sale for you signing up through them but that has no effect on your percentage. All models have the option of referral and get a % off your first few weeks/months but you still get your full commission of 35%. Usually Vanessa is quick with responses. I would just sign up through the actual site. Same difference. If you need extra help she would be the one to go to as she's over all models whether you sign up through her or not.

    Yesterday seemed to be back to normal for me. I am curious if there are unrelated whitelabels that advertise me to potentials. I have found myself on sites that relate to my persona but the influx of daddy doms and other fetishes I don't cater to has me thinking that new whitelabels just grabbed any models profile instead of researching the girls they advertise. Yesterday was traffic I could actually utilize and makes sales from. Fingers crossed my kinda ppl find me this week!

    If you are talking about the new feature, it is only available to a select amount of models for now. I don't have it either, but it sure would be nice.

    What does the star mean on users notes? There is an option when you highlight user names to click a star but as far as I can tell, nothing happens. Do I, as a model, have a list of favorites somewhere?

    If you add a star to a member, it’ll mark them as important and you’ll be able to filter for them quickly. Found it in the streamate help for you.

    Venting: Does any take compulsive member notes? I do, to navigate how many times a guy enters my room and/or changes their SN's. I've been getting the same guys since 2015, and not one cent from them who seem to only want to chat/waste time. I've been kicking (not blocking) in hopes of possibly buying my videos. It's worked a couple of times. Anyone else take notes and do this?

    ^^^ I do. I take notes on everyone that comes in chats, lurks, you name it.


    I kick if I get the sense that they are a freeloader, or if they are screwing with my vibe.

    I wonder what the psychology is behind just lurking. Chatting with a cute girl for free...I'm getting frustrated so I don't give them the time of day anymore. However, I had some go to private after being kick and one gave me 1 star after as revenge.

    I know that some guys just feel awkward. Sometimes I will give the user that is not saying a hard time until they speak. If they are a repeat offender, sometimes I kick. But here the last couple of months I am sassy and encourage them to tip gold- go prvt/excl.

    I've been getting many guys asking the same questions repeatedly, and then leave after I say "yes." I'm curious, would you go to private with a guy who rated you poorly before? Part of me thinks who cares it's money, but my vengeful half thinks screw him.

    I didn't know it was only available to certain models, if that's the case I'm not sure why I got it since I'm not a super top earner and don't stream that often. Personally I hate it -- the first time it was presented to me, I clicked "cancel" just to see what happened, and then it connected my stream like normal. What I didn't realize was it had still taken a screencap of me, and it was apparently an awful picture based on what my regs told me (so glad they're honest, lol). I couldn't see it myself because I am geoblocked.

    So I logged off and snapped another one that was acceptable and logged back on, but then my regs said it was still showing the initial derpy one, presumably because it's cookie-related. So all night I was anxious about it -- I didn't get a lot of traffic and I wonder how much of that was because my picture was stupid. I emailed Liz and asked to opt out of it, she got back to me quickly and said she'd disable it so now I'll just have the static bio pic again.

    Same exact thing happened to me(derpy pic WITH an open mouth though) so I had to have it removed as well. However it wouldn't just do that when I hit cancel, it would do it even when I took a proper pic. I wouldn't have minded the feature if it worked reliably.

    Because they weren't intending on spending money in the first place. They do it all the time.

    I'm too spiteful so no. I block anyone who I see has rated me anything other than a 5. However when guys do jump in pvt or exclu and *then* I look at their info and see that in the past they gave me a bad rating I call them out on it and ask why on earth they think I'm going to do anything for them other than sit there. Then I block. Sometimes if I catch a guy hanging out or trying to chat me up in the freechat and I see that they gave me a bad rating I say "You rated me a 1 after our last pvt so why are you back here since I'm apparently so awful?"(btw I ONLY get 1s and 5s, no middle ground) They always try to make up some BS excuse and then I just block them. If I was a smarter person I'd just keep taking their money though even if it meant more bad ratings because I've had my stars go under 5 and it didn't affect my placement/money/traffic at all. I just think it's too amusing when they try to come back that I can't help myself.

    yeah honestly, if it was both reliable AND optional, then i'd be all for it. it'd be nice to be able to occasionally use a temporary/screenshot profile pic if i look/feel good at a random moment, or if i'm doing something themed/special in my room for just that night. but i don't want to be obligated to take one every time i log on, particularly if we can't be sure they'll broadcast the one we chose.

    If anyone asks me for a show or if I offer something and then leaves as soon as I say yes or agree, I either make a note to block them or call them out on it when they next come back. Sometimes they immediately spend money so they don’t get blocked and sometimes they leave. If they leave, they get blocked forever.

    Same. I'm OCD about my notes and it only takes a second to copy/paste the things they say. If it's something that only vaguely irritates me like "show us ur tits" and then they leave when I point them at the tip menu I'll just note it then block them if they come in again and do the same thing. Also, if they ask many questions and leave multiple times with never spending money I'll block them after the 3rd time I've made a note about them rather than waste my time greeting them and making small talk for months on end.

    I've been pretty lucky rating wise, but if I have a guy who's abusive in a paid show, I block them to boot them out of the show but leave the option for them to message me if they feel like they're going to apologise - no one's ever apologised for being an arse though.

    I dunno what’s going on atm but so many of my regs have been really slyly trying to freeload in some way this month. They’re the last people I would ever have expected it from aswell. I’m not just talking 1 or 2 either!

    And on this note: Do any of you block ex regular customers who constantly come into your room and never, ever spend anymore? I know some guys won’t spend everytime and that’s fine so long as they aren’t taking the piss, but I have some old regulars who regularly visit, either never speak or spend, or they speak, take up my time with useless compliments, brief chat and then go without ever tipping. Should I give them leniency cause they were once regs? Or is it fair that I just block them for starting to waste time aswell?
