Streamate does suck though, for sure. Guys having disconnect issues or me having lush issues when we both know they want to spend their money is the absolute worst!
did you start cam in 2019? 2020?
i added 2019 bc a lot of newbies rolled into 2020

i’ve seen a lot of posters online not realizing everyone was booming online bc ppl needed us. models will be in for a rude awakening if they haven’t already felt it.

On streamate again since fall 2019 but cammed on adultwork since 2015. I was on streamate back in 2008 when we had to verify by skype but that was a whole different world.

But 2020 I had to go fulltime cam as I used to work in salons in Switzerland for most of my income pre covid.

But didn't StreamFan start over a year ago? SM has had issues for yearrrrssss. Over the years from my perspective it seems like everyone takes turns dealing with the crap. What seems different this
time around more people appear to be dealing with the crap at the same time.
There’s double the models online so maybe that’s why we feel more complaining
going off my affiliate numbers it seems to be business as usual as long as im doing my part.
I am part of stream fans and I noticed when they started integration into our profiles is when we started having connection issues with customers

streamfans is now on our dashboards and on the streamfans side they are doing cam etc. it sounds ignorant to me that sm would say stream fans is not affecting Streamate …. every site does upgrades and has issues, but Streamate is the only place that’ll be like no it’s not us lol adding a whole new site to the site - of course it’s not streamate. couldn’t be. lol

No matter what I do I'm now stuck on the second page and can't seem to get back to the first. All I get are in and outs and glitches. Thankfully for me I've been splitcamming with stripchat and have done well in their. It's been saving my ass. I hope SM comes back for me. Good luck ladies!
Glad to hear you at least found a backup and it's working! Do you do just pvt based shows there? I don't know much about it but considering.

the glitches are a different story.
I was just talking about this recently. In 2008 I was getting started with phone sex. (It may have been a year earlier?) Back then all of the pso companies required contracts to be sent via fax. I remember going to my local Workforce building and setting up shop in the corner. Everyone else was trying to file for food stamps ect., meanwhile I was doing admin duties for sex work.

Where there is a will there is a way.

Eventually I got my own printer/fax machine setup. Then after that highspeed internet ( upload of 2mbps), a computer from rent-a-center and the Logitech Orbit webcam. You couldn't tell me shit back then. 😂

Now that 5 star rating has disappeared leaving just the 4 star for that day. why has the 5 star rating suddenly been removed? wtf lol
" If a single customer rates you more than once, only their most recent rating is counted." It can be that the member that rated you 5* did a show with you again and rated you again

An issue i do have at the moment is my lush is endlessly disconnecting, but only on streamate. All other sites it's fine.
This is reassuring. I know that things are different from when I first started and times between then and now. I'm having an issue with staying put. I'm working hard to just maintain my hours before I go full on STREAMATE SUCKS!

Wait! Did you really just say STREAMATE SUCKS? LMAOOOOO
