    This has actually worked in my favor before, too. I was playing my Nintendo and they could hear the trademark "Mario sounds" in the background. Some guy took me exclv for 15 minutes just to talk about games.

    I'd love to do that (I'm a huge Sims addict) but it's not feasible right now until I upgrade.

    I have an Asus Rog gaming laptop; an i7 processor. I stream and play sims (but i only stream on one site ?). I am not sure if it would still work with multiple sites. I just make the sims window the right size so i can still see my camming chat box and if nobody says anything i just play (and from time to time I still say hi to members lurking in my room). My mind goes into crazy places if I just sit and nobody talks to me (sometimes i have my room full of members and none says shit; i am like: hi wall, hi lady, whatsup wall? LOL ).

    I have second comp for gaming so when it's slow on SM which running on my first comp and on offline sites which running on second comp I turn off offline sites and start play online-games while SM is running on first comp.
    But since so slow everywhere I ordered lovense and will try free-chat sites to not be bored.

    I have a gaming pc and my husband bought me more RAM for my bday so I could play Sims without over stressing my computer while I cam lol. And I have to have my graphics set to Ultra for Sims or I don't enjoy it! She runs so smooth too.

    I have the jewelry shopping channel on in the background.
    I love, love, love looking at jewelry! It's my personal porn.
    If I lived near the TV stations that air it, I would definitely work there as a hostess. I would be a top salewoman too, no doubt.
    But alas, here I am in boonieville, looking at dicks all day.
    And sometimes penises.
    Ba dum dum.

    My question here would be...how do you stay motivated to work when you are playing something you love? I do that at times, watch something on youtube or even read a book or an article that's very interesting, and I get all into that and if I get a show I feel violated haha. I need all my self control not to be a bitch to the guy. At times I even log off to continue with my entertainment.
    Afterwards, of course, I feel like a failure with no self control.

    Guys just want to toss in here, those with overheating laptops. GET A LAPTOP FAN!!!!!! I have zero issues with any of my laptops that I've owned over the years overheating when I have a fan sitting underneath it. Even gamers have fans on their computers (both desktop and laptop).

    When I'm camming I try to work on my business and/or take my little notebook laptop in with me and have it directly next to my computer so it looks like I'm looking at the webcam screen when in fact I'm looking 10 inches to the right doing my own thing. Sometimes I'll put the soundscapes channel on my TV, low though. Kinda keeps me peaceful at times when my anxiety is real high.

If you are building your own and you really want the best of the best go with a threadripper. I got one in my main computer and it is like nothing I have ever used before! I get that everyone likes laptops though but if you really want the very best stream either for gamming or web camming a desktop is 1000 times better all day long plus you can upgrade it as you go. I used to be all about laptops but I paid $2000 for my alienware (actually a client bought it so I paid nothing ) and it was slowing down after like 6 months. Cant upgrade it and already there was something newer and better available. I built my own computer for web camming and the occasional game and it cost me 1200 bucks and I have never ever had an issue on SM with slow stream, frame rates or been kicked off mysteriously. When I hear others complaining about the site being glitchy I wonder how many of them are really just experiencing shitty computer issues!
    Thanks so much for this info! Keeping this in mind when I upgrade next time

    I pull up a game or some funny youtube videos on my other monitor.
    Anything to keep me looking interested, happy, and smiling.
    I do try to not do anything that requires too much bandwidth though (I.e., playing something like Overwatch for instance) since my internet is ass. So if yours is too, then that's something to keep in mind.
    Glitchy streams aren't going to pull anyone oof.

    I'm doing a routine in online games, things which need a time as fishing, crafting dailies, grinding, farming, housing so when I got interrupted with customers I'm not so mad is if I were doing some interesting quests or if I was in dungeon and I not feel guilty that I'm wasting time on it, I'm online and not feel boring when camming is slow.

    That's a great idea, it also means I can bring up a topic I want to talk about or answer someone's questions about something I want people to know.

    It's so good to have an arsenal of things for times like this. I've borrowed Miss Sha Sha's tip of playing binaural beats while streaming to keep me calm, and IT WORKS. I also like to read on a kindle reader on my PC. I haven't yet mastered playing a game without completely ignoring potentials, lol.
    I think a lot of us have specific SW threads they read to keep their vibe high - one of my favs is https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...a-Money-Magnet

    Upping your self care is good too - I like using color to help with my mood. I stocked up on great eyeshadows during Colourpop's recent sale, and it's something that boosts my mood every morning.

    Right on! Glad the beats help. Color is a great idea. I try to wear green when I feel like I just don't want to be on cam. It's the heart chakra color and money vibes lol.

    I've been playing a lot of Reggae which keeps me very chill.

    I tried playing a game and kept missing chat lol. Even with a totally new window open and chat visible I still miss chat cause I'm so involved in the game. It's the same with movies and subtitles. I get sucked in and ignore chat. It's tough cause that stuff really does help pass time.
