Streamate was maddening for me today. I couldn't last, I kept getting kicked out of Exclusives which sucked because I was actually GETTING THEM![]()
~We Be Hustlin', Bitches Be Hatin'~



Okay, I was finally able to stream and get some shows tonight- I'm using the new settings (degrade quality, etc). I tried both actually, and both had lag but the drop frames setting was a longer lag. Also, I can't really view my cam when I'm streaming- my internet sucks and my stream is super laggy if I check it with the connection I'm streaming from- kwim? Ahh England- why does your internet/upload speeds suck?? Also I uninstalled flash 3.2 and reinstalled 3.1 because that is what SM reccommends for PC's (on the homepage under the dropdown "HD")
Anyways,
Thank you for the help guys, and Goodluck![]()




Saw TWO of the top top girls earlier today having issues with SM...
Girl #1 said she'd hit $500 GOLD shows like 5 times, and each time it messed up and she couldn't get the shows going. She was pretty stressed.She also had issues with her guests not being able to tip. ~ The tipping option was greyed out for some.
Girl #2 couldn't get a GOLD show started - as in, the box wouldn't go away and it had a line on the GS form saying there was an error or something.
SM seems to be kind of full of errors the past two or so days. I wonder if they're going to be bringing us anything new.





so its not a lie!?
Customers have mentioned not being able to tip. I was thinking they where being super cheap, my bad, dang.
I have had the gold show start button freeze stating "error, contact support if problem persist"<----- PROBLEM IS ...... WE DONT HAVE MODEL SUPPORT SPECIFICALLY FOR TECHNICAL ISSUES
anyone else notice SM screwing up today? I logged out and then logged in with my member account and saw i was online haha, ya right! Just wanted to see if Im still sane here lol




Guests have had issues tipping models for some time now, I know that much.. I thought it got better, but clearly not.![]()
I might log into my custie account in a bit and check to see if I can tip models. I know that it isn't a universal issue - some guys seem to have this problem, others don't. But I've believed the issue to be true because I've had some of my otherwise lovely regs get really pissed off that they can't tip and also report back about how shit CS was with them.. yeah and I've seen guys in other girls rooms report this same exact problem about the tipping option being greyed out. Suckage.





How do we make money? and IMAGINE what we are missing out![]()









Maaaaaaaaaaaany girls are experiencing significant issues with SM the past day or so.![]()



Whelp, time to sign up on MFC.
I had no problem with SM when I was working this morning.
That doesn't mean that the glitchmonster didn't take over SM by the evening though.





Where are the "new" encoder settings? Did SM release new settings or am I misreading? :-/

There are none bb.
ppl are speaking of "degrading qaulity" some models did not have their settings with that.
I think this shit comes in waves.
I have tried 3 things
degrading = disconnected
drop frames= disconnected
unchecked everything and still disconnected but it reconnected me then disconnected again, its been 10 mins and no reconnect yet so Im starting the test waves over again. and just as I typed this I reconnected and landed another private.

IMO every model will experience this bullshit, its a computer/internet made by humans.There will always be errors in life esp with tech world. Its up to us to keep our cool and get through it. lol "glitchmonster" <--- i imagine "Mr yuck face" form the poison control when I was a kid. A person had to put yuk face stickers on bottles so I wouldnt drink the poison, little did she know it was too late![]()





I noticed this past week any time I tried to view a model there was a horrible, horrible lag. It happened in every room I tried all last week and I had lots of members tell me I was lagging a lot too. It must be something with their servers?
I've also noticed significantly less tv shows going on. Wonder if there is something being worked on...?
I also have had to restart my computer several times during shifts from my browser flash plugin crashing and disconnecting me. I'm guessing that is something wrong on my end tho...?

im off again but still chilling waiting for it to reconnect. I have noticed that as well. I watch myself all the time and you are 100% correct the stream sucks. It is something with them bc all of us cant have the same issue. I noticed this happened AFTER the phone feature was enabled again after going a weekend with out it.
TV as well, not as many offers.





lol im on again
This is going to be a merry go round ride but Im making that money (making it work DAMMIT!)
