    Default Streamate's making me want to cry

    I spend months camming in HD with sound and the encoder 8 hours a day 5 days a week (no splitcamming), struggling to stay in the the middle of the first page while getting $1 a minute in Premium - all just to find myself at the page 4 or 5 after two extra days off and have to start it over with 1.99. It's the fourth time this is happening to me. My room must be cursed.

    It's a weird day on there for sure. Only time wasters so far.

    Placement has been royally f'ed up lately. It's not just you. There are girls on there who are a page behind where they used to be, girls who are normally at the top of page 1 who get kicked down for a few hours then pushed back up again. I've also noticed a drop in the ratings of several page 1 models, which I'm sure is affecting their placement. There is something weird going on.

    Taking two days off wouldn't push you back a few pages.

    Hope it fixes itself in a few days. Least of all, I'd want to get back where I started. It'd be even more frustrating as I keep investing in toys and equipment and all, so lowering my rates makes me feel really bad about the money I have spent on it. 1.99 - ffs, one could do that good with a laptop cam and fingers.

    Default Re: Streamate's making me want to cry

    It's been hours dead, with no shows, not even people wanting to talk, not even freeloaders for me, and I'm in the middle of the first page... wtf. This is SO killing me. Makes me want to just give up and go to a different site. I might have to take up a token based site, cuz SM isn't working for me, anymore. That makes me also want to cry. I'm sorry to hear it's been so terrible lately for everyone and it's not just me.

    Five hours online today, spent 15 minutes in paid chat. It's so hard to give up though, especially when you start thinking, "If I just stay on a little longer, maybe I can you know, BUY GROCERIES THIS WEEK".

    the bf has looked up things on sm for me and it seems that its one of the main websites mentioned when people talk about getting stuff for free. Apparently the website said that if you only stay in for 27 seconds you don't have to pay in private......... might be a reason? not too sure though. I've been having a bad time since i made 560 a few weeks ago

    Keep your chins up! We all know there are just weird periods. We'll all be rolling in cash soon.

    It's a phase. They'll market somewhere else and we'll get new traffic soon enough. Hang in there, ladies!

    Oh yeah, tons of time wasters. It's a little disconcerting when you get several guys that come in, then either none of them talks, 2 of them are trying to date you, or they're just asking stupid ass questions "when wuz the last time u been fuked bb?" lol. It'll get better.

    Have any of you really ever in your history of camming seen SM so dead? And yes! Placement is jacked up these past two weeks. Not sure WTH is going on

    No, it's never been this consistently bad for me before. It's been slow lots of times, and I've had to work more hours than I wanted to. But this is the worst as far as putting in the hours & still not making enough.

    Somehow my dumb ass was in the first row this morning, which really shouldn't happen given my recent and average earnings. I had two regulars in my room, and my Internet wouldn't work. The only chance I've had in three days of making my minimum, and the Internet dies for four hours. Ffffffffffff. Thanks for that generous upload speed of .48 dudes.

    Yeah, ditto here on a totally lame week. It started off great though then tanked. I hurt my back again, 2nd trip to ER in 3 weeks so I needed to take another break anyhow.

    I am soo glad to see I'm not alone and not just too lame to make money!. Yesterday was my first day on SM and I was soooo looking forward to it after dealing with f4f and mgf freeloaders.....welp. It sucked. I literally did not have more than 6 people at one time EVER and only had 7% paid chat. AND had to deal with a freeloader talking about sniffing buttholes. Only one of the privates was longer than 5 min.....most of them were literally like under 2 minutes AND i only got a chance to show boobies. Makes me glad I'm only fucking them virtually! LOL Banking over here on all you veterans being correct and that it will turn around. Cuz boy'o'boy....... I shaved my underarms for that shit!?!?! HAHA

    You all need to let Streamate know about this shitty traffic. A few of us have and they deny their new traffic source is terrible traffic.

    So glad I read this thread. I am usually on CB, was about to start on SM but I think I might wait a bit to see if these problems get better. Man, I love stripperweb. Hahaha.

    Jane, when you say "new traffic source"... how long have they had this new traffic source? And have they dropped other sources in order to have this new source?

    I haven't noticed a huge slow dip, personally.

    I have had glitches though. The biggest one where my room is full of 10-15 guys, then they all suddenly disappear - then suddenly reappear 30-secs - 1min later.
