    If you don’t work from the start of the contest it’s slow I find. I take the time off to chill and do other things on contests, unless I want to go for it, but it’s hardcore xx

    Yes. I enjoyed every last minute of it too. I'm one of the petty ones who say something cheeky before blocking them.

In a way it felt like a group of mean girls going room to room trying to troll others to the point of tapping out (quiting the contest). In general the quality of traffic is terrible during these events. **hugs**

    Yup. Every time someone mentions my acne or something like that, I'm "it must be soo slooow for that performer".

    I didn't know that SM popped up the gold menu item randomly. I thought the clients could just pick from the menu. That's weird. I like the idea of the mandatory 5 minute thing. But the only time I ever really get those Minute Men is when I'm already in a private and they want to sneak in. But I have lower rates than most models, maybe that contributes to it a little.

    I decided to play member for a night to do some research. I took an amazing model private because she was super cute and she seemed to be having a rough night. Tell you what, she was entertaining for sure and next thing I knew, 7 minutes and $46 went out the window faster than I thought. So I'm wondering if men feel like they have to hurry it up or they're gonna be broke. I kind of think of it like shopping. People will go from store to store and window browse. Working in retail before, I wouldn't ever get angry at customers coming in but not buying anything.
    Or sometimes when we go out to eat we just want an "appetizer". If I were to be a restaurant owner, I'd be thankful for even the smallest business. But that's my personal opinion ��

    ***OR***
    I read an awesome thread on this site about "stalling the time". And I've started doing that. It really works! I never have a show less than 5 minutes now.

    I seem to have accumulated a small handful of these types right now. Does anyone else find them a bit draining to deal with? I have no issue asking for tips, it's more so that they seem to only tip because they're "forced" to. Just wondering how some of you ladies deal with them?

    My instinct says to block as I hate seeing them pop up. Half of me thinks it's manners for them to tip without being asked but the other half of me wonders if I'm being a little entitled?
    After a few exchanges of hi, how are you, & asking for a show...i let members know I can chat in PVT or they can tip. I state if they neither do a show or tip they must leave.

    It's done politely & assertively. They either do or leave. It gets easier with time to be assertive with these members.

    First, as a member I would find this annoying and I would assume as a member that the MODEL was doing it.
    100% agree. But they did say they were running tests, maybe spamming the hell out of them actually gets them to tip more?
    How annoying that SM never use their NEWS page until 2 weeks after the update has been live.

    10 years ago it made sense to have the free/discounted whatever it is time in the beginning of the show for models and users, but not as much now. Not now that everything is going 4k and loading lightning fast with 5G and they have us on their phones wherever they want. The preview is what free chat is for. It really is time for them to remove that discount BS whatever completely IMHO.

    SM is too obsessed with giving them discounts galore. The fan club discounts and free gold shows is already too much.

    I hate that we have to resort to scummy business tactics of slowing down the show just to make enough $ to eat. I'd rather start the show when it starts just my 2 cents

    Agree 100%. Telling them they get 40 seconds free just to get them over the line. Adultwork charges them from the second they get a connection. I make my money on there 1 cent at a time, but at least they are being charged to have a look at me.

    i have not heard any of my members mention the pop up tip thing and i'm guessing it's because i don't use the SM Gold Tip Menu feature at all. i just have a handful of things (spanks, boobs, etc) written out in my topic with prices, because i hate the way you can't customize the SM menu (and also, i thought i read somewhere that if a guy buys something off your tip menu, it doesn't activate your tip vibe, and they have to tip regular gold for the vibe? i could be wrong but if so, that's a no from me.) but if i'm understanding it based on what i've read here, are they basically taking random options from your "Tip Menu" and then having a single item pop up for guys at random times in free chat?

    if so, ew, i would absolutely not want that. sounds really spammy and annoying if I were a custie, particularly if it happens at random. not every item on a tip menu appeals to everyone and it'd be weird to just take random options and make them pop up for random people. what a stupid idea.

    i'd suggest if you're having this pop up thing happen and you don't want it, try disabling your gold menu and just use your topic or an auto-message in chat to mention what you do for tips.

    Has the notification sound changed for low level tips?

    My toy is having an issue at the moment so it randomly buzzes and i just ignore it but a couple of times today someone has buzzed me 1G and i've just no heard the noise so haven't made an appropriately delighted noise about it.

    Thank you for the previous replies! I have a habit of setting boundaries and then doubting them, I feel like I don't find the right balance between being straight to the point but chatty enough! Or maybe I have already and I just overthink it!

    That's such a subtle and tactful way of putting it. I'll definitely use that when needs be. Thank you!

    Yeah mine's working a bit intermittently too. Someone tipped me and it didn't react for 2mins, I faked it and someone took me for a show and it finally buzzed as I was speaking to someone on c2c. It totally stopped me in my tracks, I just stood there with my mouth open for a moment, then said sorry mind blank, and he just laughed! Probs thought I wasn't all there though lol

    Usually if you call customer service and tell them you're a model they'll give you your custie account back

    omfg. i know it's all algorithm based or whatever but literally the model in the FIRST SPOT on the front page for me (not logged on to a model or customer account) was just using a toy in free chat, pussy for everyone to see.

    WTF >_<

    Had a great 4 weeks before this week, quiet Sunday last weekend, then 5 days off due to other commitments including travelling. Did 5 hours streaming yesterday which I think is my longest yet, but didn't hit my minimum target for the day.

    Today reasonably quiet does being off for a week affect traffic?

    I do have low take days including on the bumper weeks, simply curiosity.

    There's a guy going around proposing to send his phone number, claiming he can pretend he's my husband which will get the guys tipping in my room.

    I've told him a few times in the past it's against the rules, plus of course it's only him after a freebie. Have not been able to report him yet, will do when he reappears. What's worse is he says he likes me, has missed me etc. Creepy.

    Sm has their own library https://streamatemodels.com/smm/music.php

    I do like music, but it can’t be the too much just something in the background. Guys don’t give AF.

    Guys tend to take me to pvt and want me to do things in exclusive. I like having multiple price points, but it’s annoying the dont understand “you get what you pay for”. They start being demanding in pvt. Ah no... buddy. Anything other than vanilla shit has to be in Exc.

    What do you tell guys the difference is between private and exclusive?

    I’m trying to brand myself as a high end model. No more cheapskates. I offer great service!

    I do the same in both Prem and Excl, I explain Prem others can come in and I have to pay attention to everyone, Excl it's only him and I alone no interruptions.

    You can just play your own music during live streaming. The music library is for videos.

    I sometimes play music and sometimes I dont. Whatever I feel like. It doesn't really make a difference unless you are into obscure music like death metal. But sometimes when I dont give a F I play that anyway, lol.
