    Regarding other models trolling... I had a person come in my room last night and his username was "GoCheckOutModelsName" and I saw it right away and immediately banned him/her.

    I have a SM rating question for you chicas... I haven't cammed in awhile.. so I wasn't surprised when I login to my SM model account and see that my star rating automatically went into a 4 star rating... but then, my first day back, I get 5 ratings from pvts all 5 stars... and the next time I login... another 4 ratings.. all 5 stars.. for a grand total of 9 ratings (all 5 stars)... and my rating is still at 4 stars...
    So I emailed support explaining this and I get a canned response telling me to check out their new manual on ways to improve my placement. I responded back saying that I did read the manual, however, I am concerned about my rating as the manual clearly states that if a model hasn't logged on for some time, it does go to 4 stars.. then as soon as 5 ratings are accumulated - it displays the average of the last 90 days. To which I got a response saying that I need to wait 90 days and keep logging in.
    Can someone shed some light on this please?

    You need to get enough 5 star ratings accumulated to make the new average 5 stars rather than 4. Over a span of 90 days, nine 5 star ratings isn't going to tip the stars to a five quite yet.

    Give it a while longer, it should start going up. Check the "My Ranking" page and it will tell you your current rating average.

    Oh ok... thank you.... that would definitely make sense to get a bunch more 5 star ratings to make that average tip towards 5 stars once more...

    I am never taking a long time away from camming again... thought I needed it to regroup - I was wrong - I missed it and now I miss my 5 stars... now I'm determined to get my ratings back... challenge accepted...

    I got messaged by someone on SM, not quite a regular yet but still a nice client, to make some custom clips. I'm ok with this, but how do you ladies accept payment for this? He wants to pay upfront, but I know PayPal won't accept adult related payments. I also don't want him to tip me the payment because that means I won't see much of it...what should I do?

    You can only accept payment through GOLD on Streamate. It's against their rules and they will ban your account if you take any traffic off the site for payment. They do monitor your messages so be very careful with this. Tell him he has to pay through the site or tell him you can't do a custom if you don't want to lose the money. I won't sell my videos on SM because I would never make enough with the percentage they give.

    Yikes, thank you so much for this I'd rather then make a C4S store or something and let people buy and pay through there. Definitely won't promote that through SM though.

    Perfect thank you! I will definitely give that a try. I do use a different name on SM, but I'll just update a lot via twitter etc so that people know they can buy

    Actually it is against the rules. Girls have been suspended for telling members to google them. I've read about it on this forum. It's a risk you take if you decide to direct traffic off site.

    Random thought but has anyone ever thought about using fluorescent overhead lighting? I notice when I go to public places the fluorescent lighting makes the place very bright. I use fluorescent lights already but I wonder if overhead fluorescent lighting would provide good lighting for camming???

    Yup, I am careful not to mention any sites or search engines. If guys ask for something I can't talk about on SM I'm like "I can't/don't offer that service on this website". Cue them asking "where then?" and I will make an offhand comment about being easy to find. If dude is serious about finding me off SM, that should be enough. If he is lazy or clueless and just wants me to spell it out for him, I boot him.


    When something goes wrong in your life, just yell "PLOT TWIST" and move on.

    I do the same thing lol. I say "I don't sell my clips on this site" and when they ask where I just say "Do you really need me to tell you how to internet?" Haha!

    If you right click on the flash video and go to settings, you should be able to change it under the tab that looks like a webcam.

    Three hours without shows means something is wrong with that site. I keep seeing more and more people say they're are sitting on there for hours and making only tips or a few bucks. The traffic overall is freeloaders and we are paying the site for traffic. I'm sorry but I would rather take a higher percentage and have to market myself over 35 percent and this crappy traffic. Dating traffic sucks and yes you can covert some into shows but a lot of it is worthless traffic. If I cant give out my personal info, then why promote me as wanting to date customers? Its not smart marketing at all and technically breaks their own rules.

    But she still was able to go over her goal...it just took a bit longer. My question is why do you even bother to keep camming on SM when all you do is come on this forum and bash it all the time? Move on. Go to another site and quit camming on SM since you hate it so much. Im growing tired of reading your constant Streamate bashing. We all have rough days, but it's still the best site for a lot of us.

    Men are stupid. I've been on dating sites before and lets say I'm super desperate so some hot dream girl says hey here is where I am . So I go to streamate... I"m not like oh wow this clearly is a dating site, NO. I'm like oh hmm this is a cam site and I'm pretty sure everyone knows its a cam site. If you can join then you know what you are doing.

    Why do you care what I post? Don't read it if you don't like it. I like the people that run Streamate and I did think it was a great site. I get frustrated with the site and yes I post that frustration on here. I dont bash the site either, I think they made bad decisions and hopefully if enough people point it out they will correct it. They changed the wording of the new contracts due to performers posting about it and contacting them. Perhaps if they read what upsets or makes performers unhappy they will change it.

    I'm growing tired of cam performers worrying about what other cam performers do and say. I also see performers bashing on other performers on here all the time. Not saying their name doesnt mean we don't know who you are talking about.
