I see a lot of "I will leave if they aren't engaging the room", but what if there are literally no people in the room to talk to in the first place? I often have this issue as a new camgirl. I can chat to myself about my day for an hour or two but when not a single soul responds I'm not really able to keep it going past that. I don't have THAT much going on in my life. So I see people log in and I say hello and ask how they are doing and try to start a conversation but soon as I do they are often gone... I never have more than 5 people, usually at least 3 of which are grays without names. When I do try to talk to someone actually staying for a moment it's rare anyone will respond... SO I chatter to myself to keep things lively as I can and they leave within a couple minutes...
I want to do this... I feel like it's the first thing I've ever really thrown myself into. I've put money into lighting and the best webcam on market and new toys and lingerie and spent my first two weeks doing nothing but research and planning and making videos... but it seems like nothing will work. I expect it takes time to build an audience, but manyvids has issues with me uploading they can't figure out, and the lush I just got won't work, and I'm just ranting now but I feel at wits end...
