    Sheesh...I need Redbull and Vodka hahahaaaa.

    LADIES, SOS! 911! HELP!!!

    must. stay. the. fuck. on!!!

    Yep, is slow as fuck and members acting all weird today but then it always happens during bonus weeks and contests. We can't say we weren't expecting this. We need to practice acceptance and watch funny cats ))
    I have 30 more mins to stay on and I'm 9 bucks far from my low goal but that's ok, I know I did my best, and that's what matters

    Listen to your body and do what's best for you, cause pushing yourself over your well-being limits will not help a bit!

    ^^Thank you. I'm not sure why I'm so exhausted. I slept 9 hrs, but you're right: I need to listen to my body.

    I'm glad to hear you're near low goal even tho high goal is desirable. Doing your best is more than enough. I hope your last 30 is pleasant. Good vibes your way.

    I'm sorry for you girls. Yeah, I have a lot of movement in my room too !

    I also feel bad for a customer; I recognized him quickly, as when I first started 2 days ago, he would make me go into priv chat then quickly log off before the 30 sec time and made me loose the others customers. He did that twice so I was really mad about him. Well, when I saw him coming into my room, I quickly blocked him as fast as I could, just to realize he tipped me for tits ??? WTF lol. I felt bad for him and tried to reached it afterwards but wasnt able to.. :/

    The last thing you should feel is bad. He proved himself to be a douche bag twice before so, the way I see it, he paid you for wasting your time. It's his loss, not yours.

    Not sure if you're still logged on but, yeah, I'd definitely suggest stepping away for a sec and regrouping if you're feeling like that. And then re-assess if it's still a good idea to log back in or just stay off and enjoy your Sunday. The money will be there whenever you're ready to come back.

    Do I like making content? Fuck no. Do I still film amateur clips of my feet and tits? Yes, cause it keeps me stay in business and I make money out of it.
    Do I like posting useless shit on Twitter? Again, fuck no, I hate it to the moon and back. But I get people on my affiliate links, so it all pays in the end.

    Being a cam girl means your body will be forever on the internet, regardless if you do clips or not. You are already there, your intimicy it's dead and gone. You can't say you don't want your body all over google. It's probably there and on a shit ton of torrents, being downloaded for free by people. Can you do something about it? Not much. You can't keep guys from screen recording your show, from posting you all over the internet for extra clicks (so extra money for them). You just can't. So fuck with it. Watermark everything and use it in your favor.


    All I'm saying is adapt. We're talking about your income and your happiness in here.
    I agree 100% with everything you said about us being all over the internet no matter what we do. However my thinking is, if a guy buys a $20 video from me and watches it 10 times, that's 10 times he didn't log onto a site and do a show with me. If I sell videos the guys are going to jerk off to my videos instead of coming to see me on cam I just personally think its a bad business decision for me. If it works for other girls then that's great.

    I was on IMLive for awhile and forgot that members could record their privates with you unless you opted out of that. Anyway, a few guys that would see me weekly all of a sudden would only come in to chit chat in free. One of the guys finally told me that he would watch the recorded private while chatting with me in free and get off that way.

    I assumed the others did as well.

    Never could figure out how a site thought letting them record a show for free and keep it forever, would be good for business.

    The best of both worlds would be have a site such as clip4sale for clips only and a site where you offer live shows only. Don't mix them. Don't tell guys that do live shows with you that they can head over to clip4sale to buy all your videos, LOL.

    such a good point. i only want to make videos when i know im going to be paid well for them, for exactly this reason. you're decreasing your scarcity by putting content out there, so it should pay to make up for the decrease in value of your service.

    I always wondered if it would be busier during those times but i am soooo not a night person and never would be able to do it.
    Try to relax if you can. You did a lot of hours last week to hit your goal. Need at least a day off for some self love and relaxation or you'll hit a wall fast.

    I wasn't even about to attempt that one. Most of my money came from 3 people but majority of the day was dead asf and really, truly, felt like work. I feel like I jinxed the shit out of everybody by declaring we were gonna have an awesome Sunday.

    Oh today is going to test my patience Lol...first 30 minutes on and nobody even says hello to me. Then someone I"ve known for years that used to be a reg but for the last two years only comes around about every 4 months comes in and I think "oh ok, well at least I"ll make a few dollars on him" and he just tries to flirt and get me to have a conversation in free with him.

    I tell him he knows me well enough to know I don't have conversations in free chat and he says "shit, phones ringing..will be back" haha yeh right.
    Next time he comes in my room (which I"m sure won't be today) I'll just kick him out. I hate when guys that were regs turn weird and act like douches.

    Just saying for me, as comparisons go...I mean it makes sense...most people still work during the week... guys are resting up for the week, sleeping early, getting their kids in bed, and the young single guys usually don't party on Sunday anyway, sports games etc...Just my theory anyway. Monday is slightly better. Thursday is usually consistently amazing.

    That's interesting!.. It's my best day of the week and I use that to gauge how the week will go and everytime if my Sunday is NOT on point the week is slow and not that great and remains a struggle.

    I think that's what happened Sunday. I mean, these last two weeks have been very hard mentally and emotionally. STFO can be so fucking hard if you're not prepared. I self cared hard core, but still...it hit me.

    Sat night I slept 9 hrs which is good and normal for me, but Sunday morning I had ZERO energy and felt REALLY irritable. Not myself at all. I tried to cam despite it, but it was bad. I was lazy all sunday literally in bed. It all hit me at once despite all the self care.

    And then the anxiety today has been through the roof. I tried to cam, but I couldn't handle how dead it was, which...let's be honest, none of us need to be surprised about. It's the summer slow down. However, mentally, emotionally, and physically I just couldn't.

    So here I am drinking kava tea and taking the rest of the day off to self care. I'm going to do nothing but eat right, hydrate, meditate, and think positively. I'll tackle the rest of the week fresh and healthy. Good advice girl.

    No girl, this summer has been hard and the name of the game is STFO. That's been the only way I've made goals. You were right...you just need to STFO, but I wasn't mentally, emotionally, or physically able to. This job is seriously demanding. You didn't jinx anything. We are fisherwomen...we wait for those fish. If we aren't there for whatever reason we miss out. Or...if there just aren't any fish in the area there just aren't. Don't even trip.

    Shit, I'm doing some real relaxing things today. And cuddling sounds like the perfect prescription for anxiety. Smart really.

    Next time he comes in my room (which I"m sure won't be today) I'll just kick him out. I hate when guys that were regs turn weird and act like douches.
    Girl, that's frustrating especially with how slow it is. I'm sorry. Sending you good vibes.

    Default Re: The General Purpose "Camming Sucks Right Now" Thread

    Today was awful. I felt awful (slept like shit, pounding headache, moody af) and I KNEW I shouldn't have even attempted it. But I did. And made $0. And cost myself a good, long show (the only even potential one today) because of my shitty disposition. Happens every single time: I try to cam when I feel crappy and I self sabatoge and lose customers i can't fuckin afford to by pushing them away for the most minor of offenses. WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF? The only one losing is me, dudes don't give a fuck and will forget you in seconds and move along, so the only one getting hurt is me. I just suck at turning off my emotions and taking $ where its at. I fucking hate my brain. I wish I could just be normal.
