    ^^ I never watch other girls. After 12 hours on cam I don't have any interest whatsoever. In the old days I occasionally had a look, but not any more. I learn more here.

    There's only so much a girl can do to make money - the rest is down to sex appeal. I've had friends who couldn't make a dime on cam no matter how much I taught them. My first shift is proof enough of that. I was non-stop private for 12 hours - and didn't have a clue what to do. No one taught me anything before my first shift. I just smiled and in they came. I didn't realise till weeks later that my cam was out of focus because I didn't know it had a manual focus ring - Logitech pro4000.

I don't see how they could watch over ALL models on the site at the same time.

    I only split cam so I am always asking for tips, gold, etc. in free chat. I even talk about joining my gold show when I ever do them, and you would think that would catch the eye/ear of an admin and they would say something to me about it? I don't even bother to mute my mic on there when I do it.

    It is really frustrating when sites are so inconsistent with enforcing their rules, so I understand that. Even on SM I have been warned for many things I see others getting away with. Makes you wonder what causes some models to be watched more closely on sites rather than others?
    Admins type in green. Only they have that color.

    You know it's an Admin because they take you private, their name says Admin. No member can take that name Admin, also I always got a follow up email from them.
    I am not sure about this pop up window thing, must be new after I left. They would only either take you private, or after you had an email from them, or support message from them. You don't know they are watching. I know they can't watch all rooms at the same time. But who the hell knows what is going on, these people (Admins) work from home in countries you are not allowed to block. I think like some performers scan rooms, some Admins can go to a category and hold the cursor over a performers image and see live what she is doing in free, maybe more for Admin.

    I always got a follow up email or support message after a warning in private. Admin on LJ never enters the free chat room and types, ever. Admin is a word they have blocked big time. Actually if I go back to my logs they may use a name they have when they take you into a private warning as well.

    I know for a fact I had the site Admin. I even have their number, I have used it many times. It was given to me when I first signed with LJ by an Admin, you get a woman or a male, usually different person every time. I was picked on simply because of the resident stalker I really think on there who hates me. He was reporting me for banning him... lol which he does not ban btw.

    That's all the info. I have. I do have screen shots Sarah to show you if you would like... the shit was bad!

    Thanks for making me laugh, i can relate.

    Sometimes i wonder, if camming have evolved in different ways, and more fun for customers, if performers weren't watching and copying each other, or telling each other what to do.

    And yeah jasmin doesn't stand for "cooking shows" reality styles, i was told by admin to lay there romanian style, between 6 pillows, and a picture on the wall behind me Just look around on the site, almost all rooms look the same, i thought performers wore almost the same outfits, supper skinny, teddy style.

    I used to work as a admin ( not for LJ) and the way it was done at my studio was...we had more than one admin live ( so has LJ) we had two screens with girls, certain amount of girls for each admin, you could see what was going on no matter if a girl was in free or pvt and access to pvt archives to see if they are saying something they should not. I was gonna say they can watch you pretty much all the time, but as a admin you got other shit to do too.
    There has been a pop up window on Lj for about a year. There are compliments and warnings.
    They are getting a bit Nazi with their rules and requirements. I know they r trying to be the best site, but it's starting to be an impossible job for a girl who wants to start working at Lj. Everything has to be professional, profile picture, teaser video, make up, hair, your room must be stylish and mysterious. If you don't fulfil one of their requirements you will get warning about being banned from their awards and they will make you less visible for members.

    Maybe this could be the LJ thread? A lot of good info in here, maybe Jane wanna change the thread name?

    I expressed already my opinion about this site, i dont like this cam work environment especially for an independent cam girl, studio girls might find it easier to work this site cause they dont own the rooms & equipment, everything they use except their persona belongs to the studio.
    Studios invest into rooms looks/ work equipment & train their models on how to work, take professional pics for them using pro photographers, i saw myself how studios operate when i wanted to work for one as a trainer here in my country.

    But as an independent cam model u might find it difficult to have the best internet, cam, room setup, lights and all cause u need to invest into these stuff, for new cam girls is even more difficult when u just dont have the money & wanna start up.

    For example i dont have a working digital camera to take pics with & they wont approve a profile picture taken with the webcam, i wanted to give site another try; i work at home & have the best internet in my area but still wont be enough to run SM site in HD, ImLive & Jasmin as my intention is to splitcam.
    From what i remember Jasmin dont let u set ur own encoder parameters like SM, same for imlive therefore both sites will 'pull' the highest parameters off ur pc/ connection in order to run their software which means u need a top notch pc & connection in order to work on these sites & splitcam eventually.

    So i consider LJ is now & mostly designed for studio models as a small part of independent models are able or willing to use their entire resources for this site only. I know i am not willing nor able, i prefer to work SM & another site(s) where i can setup/ direct my room as i want w.o fearing the cam site police is behind my back, that's why i dont have a boss & work for my own, to have the freedom to do what i want in my room (within the site rules but not LJ rules), i dont want Jasmin site to boss me around, i dont want anyone to boss me around, that's why i am independent cam girl & not working vanilla job to be a slave for others.
    Cheers!

    Any independent model can invest in the proper equipment and lighting, its a less then $80 investment to get a HD webcam and lamps are cheap, I've yet to pay over 2.50usd for a cam light. Naturally black boxes and umbrella lamps are gonna cost a little more but your lack of having it doesn't mean your any less professional looking on cam. Ive yet to see a studio girl as a top model on that site so I honestly don't think that "training" is giving them a leg up on the competition. We are all Just as capability as any studio, if not more.

    Yep,lol, they will never approve a webcam pic, they make a point of saying that on setup. I pretty sure if you have a true HD webcam that wont matter.

    If you use the stand alone you can change the encoder perimeters, its not as involved as the SM one but you can make changes. I believe the only requirement is you have to have an upload speed of 2 (or 1.5). They go in to great detail on their wiki page and they even let you know what you should lower if you split.

    I don't get the issues in here. If a site doesn't work for you then move on and find a new site. Arguing about it doesn't make any sense because the site works for others. We all have different styles and different work ethics. It's not a big deal.

    I've cammed since 2005 and know a lot of top performers that work on various sites. They will not eat on cam because that's not attractive at all. Unless you are being paid to eat in a show it's rude. Camming is a job and just like any other job you take a break to eat. Logging off for ten minutes isn't going to kill anyone.

    Do you really know so many top models and watch them all right through their shifts to be able to say there's no top models who eat on cam? Obviously if a model is very busy, they're not going to be eating, are they? They're not eating because they are busy, because they don't have time to eat... is another way to look at it. When I'm busy I also don't have time for snacks... but through very quiet periods I won't log off to have a quick snack. You can snack, drink and even check your phone while on cam and still stay alert. You can stay in front of the cam, but hide your mouth - but that's not good enough for LJ, is it?

    I'm not here to hate on LJ. I'm here to learn about the experiences of different models who work the site as I'm signed up and thinking about it. Right now the negatives far outweigh the positives I've read here. Obviously anyone who puts their mind to it can make money, but at what cost? A couple of frustrations similar to what I've read here would be more than enough to send me away, so I don't have to waste my time starting. I don't like being treated like a child when working on a site.

    Just to be clear, I'm looking for other sites to split to and I was considering LJ as an option, therefore I signed up.

    I've also cammed since 2005, and I don't believe that most models don't snack while working ....sorry. Sure, during busy times there's no time, but in quieter moments of course they will. Logging off is not an option because you lose momentum.

    We're having discussion here and I'm finding it very useful. If it seemed to get argumentative, it was only because of Sam's "gestapo" style input several posts ago.

    It's not like we're discussing eating a 3 course meal on cam, but snacking - you know, like peanuts, chips, fruit... sipping on coffee, tea, Red Bull etc... it was also mentioned that the chewing is normally done off cam view. That's not rude at all but seriously, I find your use of the word "rude" a bit bizarre in the context of the cam porn business. If you don't mind working with cam police breathing over your shoulder, don't mind us - go ahead. I think it's degrading for people you're making money for to treat you like a bunch of children. Each to their own.

    Back in 2005 I found that most sites were heavier on rules than they are now. There's too much competition now. Girls have more options. They don't put up with as much shit as they used to. Why aren't there so many US girls working on LJ if it's such a fantastic site? My original site used to have moderators popping in all too often to enforce rules - I never see them these days. They had to ease off to keep their models from leaving.

    I also disagree that camming is a job. It's not a job, it's a business. If it was a job you'd be paid an hourly rate. In that case our employers would have full rights to stand over their employees demanding that they do exactly as instructed.

    Kidding a little here but Jane, LJ wont be too happy to see u keeping cam on ur tits or ceiling, just saying

    Also i get it that Sam goes always for how to promote, do business, etc etc but hey, do we forget Sam is a porn star with years of experience and reputation behind her back?
    U learn to do real business after a good while, we dont expect a new cam girl to be able to do business at that level when she barely knows what she is doing on cam, right?
    Maybe not everyone wanna develop cam work to a business level, ok i get the point but is not a must, i can be a cam girl w.o being a business woman, if i wanna be lousy on cam or have a bad day or whatever then i wanna have the right to be like that, members will tax me for it but i dont need cam sites to boss me around; i am getting tired of all these cliche honestly.

    One more time : no one was eating, i was pointing out admin error and general harassment on this site.

    No one needs to be convinced about anything, good or bad, as i'm sure they will they will find out if they cam enough on here, and not just a few hours a day. Those who cam 8+ hours on here daily will get to know the site better.

    One more thing: i'm in usa and since the site is requiring super quality stream, i tested speed through admin to their servers, and although i have 10 mgb upload here, i hardly had 1 mgb to the site since the server is so far away ( or who knows what).

    Thats the views the losers on Streamate get for being cheap assclowns. That's why I want another site, that site has become freeloaders paradise and it's annoying as fuck.

    Once again it's not a site for everyone, but that is every cam site known to man. You find the site that suits you and work on there.

    Hey Busygirl, I also have done the speed test with them, I as well can not make the trip, I thank you for bringing that up. While I run the fastest speed in my area. This used to work for for LJ for years! They changed everything up and now that also has affected me more than anything to them. I did have an Admin say we can work it out... But I just don't know. He said the rules are rules and yes there are many and they expect they will be enforced, OK. But my fucking speed is the killer.

    As for being professional, I think we all are here. I think this thread is good. I also know that one of the cam performers here in the thread used to work LJ and her room along with quality was very very nice!

    All in all I made damn good money there! Just getting my foot back in the door with the baggage I have there may be super tough for me as well.

    PS on a bright side of this thread I am making friends with an Admin on LJ. He is cool and willing to help me anyway he can, so there is a positive to this thread, he lets me know that some Admins are tougher than others, that is expected at any place of work. I did a speed test with him when as well a few minutes ago, and I suck!!! LOl.
    I can't make the trip either to Portugal. That could be an issue. I may need a Portugal Proxy....lo. JK.

    It may not have you that was eating that meal but girl are eating, I've seen plenty of screen shots on SM with them about to bite it, chewing, etc. It is so not sexy. Why any girl would choose to have that room shot feature enabled when they like to eat on cam is beyond me.

    I think there is something wrong with LJ speed tester. that's something If its hurting your placement you have to talk to CC. My upload is at 50 but when I test my speed with them its in the 20's. A lil 1 or 2 mgb difference I can understand but over half, their servers in Germany have nothing to do with us and our connection in America. Their shit is calibrated wrong

    I don't get why anyone cares what site I or another cam performer does. If I want the camera on my tits on Streamate I will put them on my tits. Its a bit creepy that performers watch each other period. Unless you actually know the performer and are friends you shouldn't be watching them. Perhaps its normal but I only pop onto rooms of ladies I know to say hi and tip. FYI camera pointed at tits or ceiling equals assclowns in my room.

    ^^^ This is a direct insult towards me sweetie, i have the right to watch whomever i want in invisible mode, u should be thankful to people posting here and giving input about this site, good or bad so u know what to expect when going to work there, u asked for it, now take it w.o being arrogant towards the ones that wanna help you. Things are not always black & white, there are lots of grey shades also. You seem to be kinda 'extreme' & unhappy cam girl, i can read it on ur face, i feel ur emotions & they not positive always, just saying in case u wanna know. Dont want this to turn into a personal fight with u but pls refrain from insulting people that give u input. Cheers!

    It was a question and some of you turned it into a negative thread. I asked about payments not if you thought the site sucked. You seem to be an idiot that doesn't have the first clue about me so don't attempt to post your lame ass theories. That is a direct insult towards you sweetie. I am direct, not extreme and you should probably worry about yourself and not creep on other people. You do want to turn this into a personal fight and if you are stupid enough to think you can post that and not start a fight you are even more of a dumbass than I thought.

You seem to be kinda 'extreme' & unhappy cam girl, i can read it on ur face, i feel ur emotions & they not positive always, just saying in case u wanna know.

    They have a peek feature on this site, so every time you are in member chat and doing whatever, pvt on another site, don't pick your nose, because members can watch you for $1 a minute, that's 30 cents per minute, or lower, depending. Lots of them got smart and won't take you pvt and only peek. Since i go into members chat when i,m dong a pvt on other site, and pointed my camera towards the ceiling because i didn't want them to peek at my hardcore show on another site for that little, got a warning immediately. I left camview in member chat for handwash break after show, and got a warning. i signed onto site and went to turn on one more light, got a warning, etc.
    So these are the stuff performers trying to warn you about, before you sign up, but somehow it translates that we might want to keep you away from this site?! i don't think so, but we are very very frustrated with this site lately, that's all, so we are going to voice our opinions on it.

    I get it but no one should be arguing in here. I think people feel passionate about things and it comes across wrong sometimes when you write it. It really is to each their own. I get LJ isn't a site for everyone and that's ok. Strict doesn't work for everyone but for others it works well. I do think not having no rules tends to allow performers to run wild, but that's just my opinion. I guess as a site you have to try to find a happy medium. I haven't really surfed the site to see how many performers are American. I focus more on what works for me.

    We're having discussion here and I'm finding it very useful. If it seemed to get argumentative, it was only because of Sam's "gestapo" style input several posts ago.

    It's not like we're discussing eating a 3 course meal on cam, but snacking - you know, like peanuts, chips, fruit... sipping on coffee, tea, Red Bull etc... it was also mentioned that the chewing is normally done off cam view. That's not rude at all but seriously, I find your use of the word "rude" a bit bizarre in the context of the cam porn business. If you don't mind working with cam police breathing over your shoulder, don't mind us - go ahead. I think it's degrading for people you're making money for to treat you like a bunch of children. Each to their own.

    Back in 2005 I found that most sites were heavier on rules than they are now. There's too much competition now. Girls have more options. They don't put up with as much shit as they used to. Why aren't there so many US girls working on LJ if it's such a fantastic site? My original site used to have moderators popping in all too often to enforce rules - I never see them these days. They had to ease off to keep their models from leaving.

    I also disagree that camming is a job. It's not a job, it's a business. If it was a job you'd be paid an hourly rate. In that case our employers would have full rights to stand over their employees demanding that they do exactly as instructed.

    Don't start drama, it's pretty simple.

    OMg, this is really not needed. I kinda want to quit posting on this thread now.

    Since i cam on this site, i was excited that we had a thread about it. Maybe we can start a new thread dedicated to this site?

I am direct, not extreme and you should probably worry about yourself and not creep on other people. You do want to turn this into a personal fight and if you are stupid enough to think you can post that and not start a fight you are even more of a dumbass than I thought.

    I appreciate it, I really do. I just get pissed that so many of these threads turn into someone starting an fight. I don't understand why people can't share their experience without drama. I get the frustration with the site. Hell I might even hate the site after I cam on it. I won't know unless I try but I have read what everyone posted and I read the sites rules too. Cams.com is like that with leaving the view of the camera. They want you on cam every second you are logged in. I just stop broadcasting if I have to get something. They warned me once when I left for 30 seconds to grab a pair of heels.

    Jane, maybe u believe 'u set me straight' but it's very nasty of u to use all that derogatory terms towards me, i reported ur post, i just made a naughty comment about ur camera ceiling view & u said i should not watch others unless we friends, u said it's creepy to watch and such. I watch rooms for research purpose & to learn, see how members react on different camming style & see models hustle & learn from it.
    Just so u know, it's nasty to insult another cammodel about her spelling when i am not a native english speaker same like you are not either, ur english is not perfect & u dont really articulate words properly.
    I am somewhat not surprised to see ur nasty reaction, i always felt u are a cold hearted person & too bold in expressing ur views sometimes but now i know for sure i was right, u showed ur true face in here just now.

    If i recall correctly i dont know how many times u posted about leaving SM & not comming back but u go back there, no matter where u go u seem not to be happy with the sites, it's ur attitude that sucks actually i reckon. U dont deserve all the input people gave u here.
