    I haven't been making anything lately. I think my camscore just can't be saved at this point.

    But some guy before was like "View my cam?" and I said "Sure, 20tks to view cams" and he was like "how about a rate and admire?" and I was like... no

    So camscore is really a factor then? Always get told to ignore it...should one just deactivate the account and start over?

    SM is still ridiculous for me this week. Tried for an hour last night- no shows, tried again today for 2 1/2 hours, got 1 prvt, not a super long one either. Can't wait for my MFC approval, going ot tell these nerves to shove it and just try it out. I don't think I can do any worse for the time being.

    That's the issue with that site. Great traffic usually but the 35 percent blows.

    SM has been so slow for me the past 24 hours. I cammed last night for about 30 mins, a few hours during the day, and a little while ago for 2 hours, and I made a whopping $40. I've never done this bad. I want to cry

    What makes it worse is I turned down a former escorting client too. He's been the only client I was seeing since I left that industry, but I wanted to finally be done with that for good, so I made up an excuse for not being able to meet up. I told myself that I would just work hard and make the money on cam instead

    But that's great news that you make more now! I'm hoping my story will be the same. (: I imagine that having a following over the years really helps. If you are in your 20's it's a lot harder to compete with someone who has a large fan base.
    Aw, thank you Anon! That's really sweet. I guess with skin I'm mostly lucky because I have a sort of tough olive-complexion from my Dad. I drink and smoke and stay up to late and don't drink enough water. I do exfoliate and use expensive moisurizers when I can find my faves. I remove makeup with almond oil, it's great! But I think it really depends on your skin type. I do think it takes a while to build up a fan base, but regulars come and go, so any new guy is potentially your new regular, right? My trouble ever since my 20's was keeping my body in good shape, trying to get there again! I have issues with it. I wish I was as concerned about my future when I was your age, Anon. I only started really worrying when my husband went blind and could no longer contribute financially. I had to really think about my future and I decided not to go for my Masters for teaching. I decided to put everything I've got into my work and it's paid off. Just give it your all, babe and I'm sure you'll be wooing guys way past middle age, if that's what you want. <3
    I forgot to add no, I've never had any plastic surgery, but thanks for the compliment! I was feeling shitty today and you helped make me feel good.

    Many say we should just ignore it, but I can't agree with that Many guys clearly stays away from models with low camscore.
    Even guys have said "why your camscore so low? That's not good!" That was on my first account so I made a new one. Everything has been fine,
    but now everything is going downhill again.

    Really? I never understood how they give the percentages. Everyone should be at the same rate.

    I'm absolutely fucking losing it right now. I have made fucking diddley in the past 4 days at all despite doing 3-4 sites at once. I have no regs or anything on two of them, so I expect it there, but when I'm making less than 25 dollars per day on SM and IML together it makes me feel so fucking pathetic and worthless. Each fucking day as been a waste of makeup aside from getting my first feedback on AW from a sweet guy. I'm going to try switching from late nights back to days and hope it helps some in conjunction with more marketing, otherwise I don't know what I'm going to do.

    Thank you MissQuirk and Jane. I really needed to hear that. I decided to take a half hour break to refresh myself mentally and take some new pics for profiles and marketing. It will get better. How can it not when you are at the bottom? Only place left to go is up

    ^^ I knew when I signed up my rate would only be 30%. I did sign up directly with SM on their main site. I also knew that many models are getting 35%. When I signed up I had no idea if I could make any money. I was not really excited about the prospect of working for a lousy 30%, but after working there for 3 months it's proving to be a reasonable earn for me even at 30%... which got me to thinking, at my current earn the 5% would be an extra $100 - $125 per month, which is nothing to sneeze at. That would pay my internet bill with change.

    I've emailed customer support. Maybe they'll revise my rate after seeing that I'm a serious model. You never know unless you ask. They seem to do everything in a discriminatory fashion, so it's worth a try.

    Do you have any other eggs in your basket besides camming right now? I find for me when camming is extra frustrating that it helps me mentally to work on my other eggs.

    Default Re: The VENT Thread, post about things that piss u off :)

    ^^^ I cosign with what tropo says, they pay me 30% as well from day one, i signed up directly with them on the main site, the issue is we are out of the 'western zone' but even so what they do is discriminatory, there is no other site paying models percentage according to 'location' but SM. I am for four years on site. It's frustrating.

    Edited to add: also for about 2.5 years since my inception with SM site they deducted $5 from each pay check, i dont know why, it simply happened, i was thinking it's normal & it has to do with how site operates but then i found SW & when asked here about it nobody else answered that they had that $5 taken away their pay check.
    At a point 1.5 years ago they stopped taking that $5 & i got paid my full earned amount. Cant figure out why they did this, i ask again, is happening to anyone else, especially non-western camgirls? If i calculate $5 multiplied by how many pay checks i got in 2.5 years working constantly and making payout almost every week i'll come to a nice sum. I will calculate just out of curiosity but my question is Why?! Why only 30%, why u SM deducted $5 from every pay check u sent me? Guess i will never know the answer

    Total amount earned since may first: 314$ (!) That's an amount I would earn in one or 2 days before! It's devastating Ugliest horrorstory in my life I would say.
    My plan was to really save some nice money for this summer so I could travel with my boyfriend and just do nice things. I'm so worried now!
