    Is anyone noticing that SM's placement is wonky lately? I'm not complaining I'm just noticing myself personally bouncing around alot. I've maintained my placement on SM with only a row change up or down in the offline models over the past few months. Right before Xmas I was pushed back almost a page in the offline models, then the beginning of this week I was pushed down a few pages but I had taken 8 days off in a row so figured that the reason but then today I was pushed way up - best placement I've ever had - second page of offline models. So I logged in and I did actually have kick ass placement.

    I'm noticing significant fluctuations over the past 3 weeks up and down even though my hourly average is not fluctuating.

    I am also noticing some girls clearly not using the encoder and hardly in private in the first few rows some even placed higher than "top models."

    I know SM placement is a mystery - not asking how its calculated but wondering if any of you other girls are noticing any significant fluctuation in your placement day to day or week to week over the past month or so?

    ^^ I am on the exactly same boat. It sucks big time. Plus there are porn celeb live shows going on past few days... I guess that affects everything, idk.

    Small change but one that I noticed is that the daily time online reports are posting immediately now. Used to it would be like after 5 am Wednesday mornings before it would show how long I was in free/paid for Tuesday, now it is showing up instantly. I don't know if that is useful for many, but since I hardly ever do gold shows I like to keep track of my free/paid chat averages.

    So I am trying to move over from ImLive to SM doing strictly Domme/Fetish/BDSM stuff...
    I read that you can't splitcam with SM which is kinda part of my transition. I work on ImLive not broadcasting but available for private and on SM I'd be in my room, obviously, trying to establish regulars and clientele.

    Granted, I've been getting WAAAY more per hour lately on ImLive, I still want to cam on both sites. Could I splitcam broadcasting just on SM but be available on ImLive and sign off temporarily on SM while doing privates on ImLive? I just can't afford to completely transition over.

    Any advice would be great on how to do this. I also don't do vanilla shows unless paid WAAAAY more.

    I used to splitcam SM with ImLive and was easy, i sat in paid mode on imlive and when i had shows there i'll shut off SM, when i had show on sm i will keep imlive session on normally, if i got a show request on imlive and was engaged with SM already i'll reject the show on imlive; i gave up imlive cause it wont bring in enough cash and will make sm income suffer so i work just sm now. Not sure how well u'll do on SM with ur kind of shows, maybe it'll work well for u as u native american, wish u great luck!!
    So SM + ImLive is easy task )

    I've noticed that the placement is going nuts,....but I have also noticed that the number of girls on has been going nuts, and I think that they are related.

    Over xmas there were fewer girls for obvious reasons - everyone was with fam for xmas.

    But since then, I can't figure it out. For the past year, I have consistently been on with anywhere from 1500-1800 girls. Sometimes it goes down to 1200, sometimes up to 2000. But over the past week, it has just been all over the place - under a thousand, well over two thousand....weird.
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    I'm also noticing that there is a HUGE difference if you are logged out or logged in. Girl A will be ahead of Girl B logged out, then you log in and Girl B is ahead of Girl A by a long shot.... it's strange.....

    ya I noticed that too - AND if you are logged in the placement is totally different not because there are models showing up that are geo restricted but just the models are all in all different spots - atleast it was like that the other day. Its kinda annoying because you try to figure out how placement is set and then they go and mess with it even more.

    Yes!!! I'm loving it. I also like to keep track of the percentage of time I spend in paid chat. Some days it feels incredibly slow, and you look the next day and realize that 23% in paid chat isn't bad at all. It's a huge motivator!

    It can take MONTHS to get comments approved. They just don't do it, either b/c they don't care to or b/c they don't have the manpower to do it. If you're really that bothered by it, send them an e-mail & ask them to approve your comments. They're not instantly approved, they're manually approved one by one.

    *edited since some people seem to be misunderstanding my post and are a little confused*

    It's been annoying me that new guys don't get an exclusive button until they've A) tipped a model or B) taken a model premium. You don't have to be THE model that they actually tip/take private. Just as long as they've tipped ANY SM model or have taken ANY SM model private, then the exclusive button becomes available for them. Otherwise, he'll just get the premium button. I'm not 100% how much they have to tip, but I DO know that tipping 5 GOLD meets the requirement. I've observed this with a few different members who were new to my room, and this is what happened. Also, when I was trying to figure this out, one of my regulars confirmed this...he told me that when you're a new member to the site (who hasn't yet tipped/gone private), it ONLY shows you the premium option and not exclusive. It looks like some of the ladies on here were confused by my post, so I figured I'd go back and try to explain better since SM doesn't really explain any of this shit to anybody.

    I finally figured out my SM problem--- now I just need to figure the solution. I've been scouring the forum and this thread for hours and I'm seeing others with this problem and yet I must be missing the solution. Forgive me if I just missed it somewhere as the search can be wonky....

    So I do well on SM. I make consistent, good money that I can only attribute to awesome regulars and long hours. Usually I only have a handful of guys in my room, but typically my regulars still allow me to make between $250-450 per day due to their generosity and loyalty. I've stated being really concerned about my placement ever since Streamate suspended my customer account because I was using a proxy to check my placement, so I had no idea where I was showing up. So yesterday I got rid of my georestrictions so I could see where I landed. And I am in the mid second page. Which is totally fine, but confusing for me. Then I discovered I had no HD icon. And there were no girls on the first, second or third page last night without the HD icon, except for me (and yes, I know placement is weird without being logged in as a customer). I emailed support and am waiting to hear back....

    So the question is--- Why don't I have the HD icon?? I have a very new Asus i7 and use the Logitech 910. I hardwire my laptop to my modem and have an upload speed of 3.75 and a download speed of 25.36. Oh, and the Encoder settings are correct and I'm using 640 x 480. So ladies, what is going on? I hope support gets back to me soon, and if not, I'll try twitter or Vanessa on here. I'm satisfied with how I'm doing, but I truly think that having the HD icon will boost me onto the front page. Thanks!

    You know if you're not logged in to a customer account when checking your placement that you aren't seeing any models with geo-restrictions, right? So if it looks like you're in the middle of page 2, you're probably on page 3. Also, the fact that you're not seeing all those models will skew your ability to judge who is placed where. If the icon is not showing up, you can try to sign out and sign back in. Sometimes it can take 15 minutes or so to show up tho. I used to have this issue & it seems to have randomly resolved itself, even tho I haven't changed anything.

    If you e-mailed support, they will only tell you to check your encoder settings. You may eventually get someone to check them for you if you go back and forth enough. But there is really no other way, that I've found, to resolve this, other than correct settings & patience. I also had an i7, correct encoder settings, awesome internet, etc. Was still having the issue. Nothing I did resolved it except waiting.

    Yeah, I'm sure I am on the 3rd page or further back. Fortunately, my niche, Redhead, is fairly small, so guys that want that can find me and a fair amount have favorited me. But definitely frustrating, especially since I've logged off, logged back in, rechecked everything, etc. I'm definitely a girl that does my homework so I hate things that don't have a clear fix. Thanks for sharing your experiences though, hopefully it fixes itself.

    Because geez, I've always had five stars, always make money, have clear feed, took off my georestrictions, put in consistent hours, have an i7, have a nice variety of toys, am able to make regulars, and am pretty universally appealing because of my big boobs and pretty face (not to be conceited, lol), etc. I bet I can make the site more money if they didn't bury me!!!! I'm not a "marginal camgirl" lol! Thanks again Jess

    Sorry, love. I hope it fixes itself soon. You could try checking and unchecking the "drop frames" and "degrade quality" boxes to see if either thing helps. That's all I can think of.
