    I'm fairly petite but either I get no traffic,the traffic can't see me,hear me or various other tech issues, or I just get a endless stream of"show tits"show pussy" and when I refuse to do it in free chat they respond with "all the other girls do"and the sad fact is they're right most do. I've scanned models rooms and seen loads of tits,ass, and pussy, one girl doing coke and another smoking what I think was meth( it definitely wasn't weed) .I'm trying hard to get away from SM but indie is totally hit or miss for me so unless that changes I'm going to have to get a regular job which is hard due to some personal issues. I do clean a house regularly as a side job so maybe I can pick up a few more or something.

    Does anyone else feel as though the traffic/money issues are related to us switching to 1280x720?
    Granted, I've only been on SM for almost 3 years I think so I don't have experience with the site prior to that, this is just the correlation I've seen.
    As soon as we went with the higher settings all the problems started with customers getting disconnected, shows not going through, video not loading, video having terrible artifacts, sound issues, lag, the list goes on and on. I truly feel as though a lot of guys can't load our feeds to a satisfactory enough level.
    I live in a big city with the best internet package available, but if I try to watch a cam on SM not hardwired my experience is extremely sub-par. Lagging/freezing/choppiness, just really....not good. It's perfectly fine to expect your models to be hardwired, but asking a dude with a boner to hardwire in order to jerk off is just not going to happen. Not to mention how many dudes are on mobile.

    Until the day when 0 girls log into their site, SM won't give a damn sadly.

SM is shit for me now, Trying back and forth with IM live but the guys on there the first thing they say to u is Istanbul baby?

    Whatever the fuck once I make rent this month, I am done camming. I need something that is going to help me actually make a living. I have excellent equipment and internet. The site is shit. Sorry but no rose colored glasses for me. It really is going to shit.
    I don't think it's just the BBW girls... Everyone is having the same problem.
    The only girls doing well are the ones who have built up a supply of countless regulars who they can depend on to meet their goals. However, all the girls who are still going good, I bet you, still aren't making what they used to.

    All my regulars left when the site got retarded.

    I really hope this isn't the case .. I haven't been on the last couple of weeks with moving but after doing pretty well for weeks it all seemed very flat from mid June I was hoping things might be getting sorted out. I guess my placement will be disastrous too due to my time away arghhhhh

    RIP to the good old Streamate days. I would log on to get at least 30 dollars in a half hour. Effortlessly.
    RIP to the good customers that were respectful
    RIP to when gold shows were worth your time
    RIP to when I half assed my way for money.
    RIP to Streamate. Sinking ship. If you feel like I'm wrong, then I'm sorry. I feel like it's a sinking ship. They can still bring it back if they fixed things. Come on Streamate, fix things!

    I can think of 4 or 5 off the top of my head. I've been trying to find them b/c wherever they went must be doing ok or they wouldn't be there. It's like poof they vanished.

    Well after a break after my Confidence got knocked out of me I was hoping all the issues had been sorted out. I notice the new encoder is better but its still causing a memory leak and activating compressed system memory to eat up my cpu. Uninstalling or trying again was more stable but version 14 still has its issues.

    I freaked out when my SM traffic and $ went down. But there ARE other sites out there. There IS indy. Yes, indy is HARD. I work my ass off to get every indy show. The extra % I get is the $ I used to pay to SM for traffic and infrastructure. Good things come to those who hustle. I don't mean to be a bitch or anything, but no, you can't just log on and expect to bank any more. You have to work for it. If you don't want to go to the mountain, then you have to count on SM to bring the mountain to you. They've proven over and over that they're coming up empty on that promise. Time for plan B, ladies.

    THIS. This is why I want to get away from the free chat trap and work on doing indy camming along with PSO. I'm just waiting to get in with CMD and LCMS. It's such a wait. But, I know I could do it on my own too with a site or adult payment processor.

    So do I. This site is fighting an uphill battle.

    I used to love love love camming on here.

    Now I get anxious all day before I decide to log on.

    I know a few models who actually left the industry... very popular models..and some who are thinking about finding something else besides camming.

    I'm one of them.. I went to school over the year and im almost done. I'll still cam... but its gonna be nice not just relying on camming anymore

    Same here girl! There is nothing wrong with change and transition. But there is something wrong with being unhappy and not doing what you love. Or forcing something that doesn't work.

    I know just what you mean by this. After four years in the industry I decided to quit and really build up my photography business. I did well with photography but found that I missed being on cam so I came back in the spring. It just seems very hard to make a buck on cam now. I will say that not needing it to pay the bills helps me to not be so freaked out about it. I agree that there is nothing wrong with change and transition, sometimes the hard times can put us on to a path that will be even better for us. Often we stay, well because even if it sucks, it is known. Wishing everyone the very best.

    I stay because it beats a vanilla minimum wage job. And it works around another job I am building on, but most likely won't be fruitful. I like being on MY schedule and not some flunky bosses open and close bullshit schedule.
