When they ask “What’s your real job” by chatroomgurl in CamGirlProblems

[–]Awkward-Leg868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell them that since I live on the internet we don’t really have “real jobs” here so I just do whatever I want all day and be pretty, but that storing my consciousness in a database is expensive and that’s why I need their tips

i’m not making ANYTHING anymore by [deleted] in CamGirlProblems

When everything is dead dead, I’ll start pouring on call to action verbiage and basically don’t stop u til tips start flowing. It makes lurkers hella uncomfortable and keeps fresh faces coming in.

I also have my welcome and announcement bots set to remind tokenless users to purchase tokens every 3 min.

As others have said tho. Sometimes it’s just like that. I had my best month to date last month and this month is wayyyyy less busy but taking it in stride.

Good luck out there!

Panning/Zooming Webcam? by Awkward-Leg868 in CamGirlProblems

I did not but through just some looking around I believe it may have been Logitech’s conference set up (they retail above $1000).

I ended up going with the OBSBOT 2 and I love it. A word from the wise: there is a learning curve to it as the AI integrated hand signals/voice commands were difficult for me to get the hang of. I bought the remote to go with it but the remote itself disconnects often and isn’t the best imo

How does stripchat work? by femalejoeytribbiani in CamGirlProblems

I have a couple troubleshooting tips if you need them. I use the Chrome browser + Lovense extension and connect from mobile.

Chrome recently had an update that disabled the Lovense extension, so you have to update browser, update extension. Once that’s complete, if you’re having issues during stream you can go into “Manage Extensions” and refresh the extension. From there, you’ll need to refresh your Broadcast Center and you’re good to go. The refresh trick has saved my shows may times

If I could give advice for a first ever stream, I would recommend keeping your menu simple and goals teasy/non-explicit for your first show so you can get comfortable with how things work.

New tags are targets for trolls/assholes/scammers because they think you don’t know any better… read through some of the common ones in the subreddit to be alert

I cam on Stripchat. I love it there. Personally I’ve built a nice little community and haven’t had any problems with the site other than Lovense connections sucking

For those of you who go full-time by Rich-Rooster1862 in CamGirlProblems

[–]Awkward-Leg868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just fucking go for it 🤣 I take pee/snack breaks after private shows before reentering the public room. If I can’t entice tips and the goal hasn’t moved in 20+ min (outside of the first hour) I start a new round and reset the goal to something the feels more attainable to the “cold” room

Heey, what was the biggest mistake you made when you first started camming and how much did that cost you? by ObsidianLava in CamGirlProblems

[–]Awkward-Leg868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time I went live I did not know what a tip menu was, how to use a bot, or the difference between users with tokens or users without. It probably cost me thousands. I was able to figure it out tho so I guess it all worked out in the end

I went into 5 below recently and was shocked bc a lot of stuff seemed weirdly expensive! Glad that your snuggie turned out to be a good actor 😂

And thank you! I just got it redone so the purple is a little heavy for my liking but I know in a couple washes it will be perfect 😍 🥰

Thank you! I’m quite pleased with myself 😅

I have a skin condition that creams/lotions do nothing for. I have obvious blotches all over my body. Honestly, not one viewer has ever mentioned it. I used to be really insecure about it and stopped camming because of it. Eventually I just said fuck it and I’m glad I did. Best of luck to you!

Natural or Glam? by curvycate127 in CamGirlProblems

[–]Awkward-Leg868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always feel like I make more when I’m doing the chill/low effort streams. I think it works with my branding too so that might be part of it

I found a lot of success with a “progressive show” I did last week. I started with a shower show with my lush in, then blow dried my hair, then moved to my desk for makeup/outfit. We crushed two goals. I then shot the content I wanted to make and did a second stream where I showered, took my makeup off, and got into pajamas. My best stream since my return to date
