    Default AW directIM

    Does anyone know how to set this up?

    I see this as an option under settings:

    "I wish to provide typed text-chat only, (called DirectIM), with no video sent from my PC or shown to clients."

    So how do I set my rates for IM? Do I get the messages on my mobile? How do I know it is someone from AW? Does this mean I cannot cam at the same time?

    Much help appreciated.

    Thanks

    Tick the box that say that. ^^ Log in JCI. There will be red letters across your screen, saying, I think "text chat only". You just change your rates where you would normally set your DirectCam rates for group and private, assuming you want to offer a discounted price for IM only. You do this on your computer in JCI, not over your phone and you will get a request for a show just like you would for DirectCam.

    Hope that helps.

    changed settings to 0.65 group and 0.75 private is the "usual" rate
    tick the stream without video option
    log into just cam it

    you will get a red text box that will read chat only and away you go ,... provided anyone out there wants to do DIRECT IM chat

    I love the IM thing on AW. I get so many people trying to follow conversations in free chat that someone always goes private (and that leads to Skype then and there if I'm up for it or at least a booking) so it's great to do at times when I can't cam.

    FINALLY I figured out what i did on my AW profile - why my phone number was showing up under the contact me section - when i registered i checked off web cam -phone chat sms - and alternative services -- under alternative services a long list came up with a variety of services to offer - the last item to check off said " I physically provide these services" - so I had checked that off by mistake -

    My mobile has been verified and I have changed all my settings but when I sign on to chat it ask me about my webcam and then it says

    Server Status : Connecting to Server, wait....
    Server Status : Your profile is not set-up as offering group OR private sessions
    Server Status : Cannot Connect to Server
    How do I change it to offer Direct Im without it doing this?

    Your mobile is completely un-related to directIM in everyway.

    Select "I wish to provide typed text-chat only, (called DirectIM), with no video sent from my PC or shown to clients." here

    You could try clicking here and enabling webcam not sure if it will work.

    DirectIM is like facebook instant chat or msn without the video running.

    You can pm me your username and I can have a quick look to see if I can see anything that could be stopping it.

    lol - I sorta did the same thing naughty - the way i understand it - i have free chat set at 5 minutes limit every 5 hours - on the im button on my profile - if you click the more info it says the person get a 3 minute preview to decide if he wants to continue - was your person entering and leaving the room frequently? watch the timer on the left by his name - i just started on that site - i assume that if they person actually goes into pay mode we will get something that lets us know that - hopefully someone with more experience with AW will respond -

    No offense but I don't waste my time in freeview. I will occasionally go into free view if I am feeling "charitable" for maybe 10-15 minutes. The rest of the time I sit back and wait for privates to roll in. It gets quiet, but at least I know I am only dealing with customers who are willing to spend.

    When you get a private you will hear a bell and a message will pop up on your screen asking to "ok or cancel" the private.

    no offense taken at all - i appreciate the input - i logged on for phone and im while at my other job - i didnt really expect much but thought i might get lucky on the phone - anywho i set the free preview thinking that since i am new and have no feedback it would be helpful - i also thought it helped with placement -

    Wondering if DirectIM is worth trying these days? I need something I can do when I can't cam because of people in the house.

    TIA dolls!

    Anything is better than nothing if your unable to put the cam on. DirectIM may work best if your profile is verified and you have some content up + ratings. This is to re-assure clients that your a genuine member.

    Thank you PJ! I''m already verified, I just need to upload some new content. I need to do something, considering it's looking like I'm going to have to have a metric s**t ton of dental work done. Cuz I'm a stupid scaredy cat who hasn't been to the dentist in 10 years.
