What am I doing wrong?

[Ms Dee]

Hey Imogen, I'm not negative - I absolutely love doing this and wish I'd started doing it in my teens instead of my forties..!
I also do phone chat..but prefer cam to be honest..
I am however, really disheartened when I take an hour to get ready, and people are entering group chat and leaving straight away - I am talking around 10 people in only 4 hours....and not one saying any more than Hi...
I just wondered if anyone else has experienced this but it seems not - seems a bit bizarre to me, so I'm now looking at the technical aspect as suggested by Sally..
I'm confident when on cam (when someone finally stay on for longer than a second!) and find the whole thing liberating when my 'real' life is so far removed from this...I thoroughly enjoy my chats and I am buzzing after a good old session - it's surely the best job in the world (for me anyway)
I so want it to work and I want to do this until I retire...
Thanks Mistress Silk for sharing your slow night experience...
Praying it picks up for us all!

Same here.I take an hour to get ready too.I am the opposite to you as i much prefer phone chat to cam.The biggest issue I have with direct cam is free chat.Some nights I can tolerate a couple of hours of it and others I am lucky to last 30 mins before switching it off.......x

Lawd I do not know how you ladies can do free chat I just do not have the patience.  But what I can say is that we all have the peepers for me it is a challenge to see how long I can keep someone in my room for.  So i tease them first be coy and flirty and if they reach 30 secs that is still 50p in my account and then I go go a minute and extend it to 2minutes. 

Just enjoy it do not stress about the small things, relax take a deep breathe and cam on.  I tend to iron while I am camming so it really does nto annoy me too much.  Or I watch films that I have downloaded or tidy up but ensure that my volume is up so that I can hear it ping.
