September 24, 2024 19 minutes 18854

Stripchat, an adult entertainment site, features professional and amateur adult performers. It operates on a token-based system. Camming on Stripchat offers flexibility and self-employment, suitable for anyone aged 18 or older, regardless of gender or identity. 

Understanding Stripchat

When you're broadcasting on Stripchat, you'll notice that each tip you receive comes with a distinct sound. Have you ever wondered why you hear different sounds for different tips? In this article, we'll explore the musical world of tips on Stripchat and shed light on why these unique sounds matter.

Token Tunes: Matching Tips to Sounds

Stripchat has a clever system in place where the sound of a tip corresponds to the amount of tokens received. This means that different token amounts trigger different sounds, allowing both models and viewers to distinguish the value of each tip. Here are the categories of token amounts and their associated sounds:

  • 1-10 tokens
  • 11-49 tokens
  • 50-99 tokens
  • 100-199 tokens
  • 200-499 tokens
  • 500-999 tokens
  • 1000+ tokens

These distinctive sounds create an engaging and immersive experience for both broadcasters and viewers, enhancing the overall interaction on the platform.

Beyond the auditory experience, you can also use these tip sounds to configure your Ohmibod. The Ohmibod is a unique device that syncs with the tips you receive, creating vibrations that correspond to the token amounts. This allows models to physically feel the generosity of their viewers in real time, adding an extra layer of excitement to their shows.

User Typology on Stripchat

On Stripchat, there are three main categories of users: Guests (unregistered users), Ultimate members, and seven different user leagues with a total of 100 levels.

When users engage with the platform, they earn experience points (XP), which enable them to advance in levels. The initial league is the Grey League, where users can accumulate XP through various activities. However, as they progress to higher leagues, the sole method of gaining XP is by spending tokens, signifying their commitment and support.

Each user is distinguished by a badge that reflects the color of their league and their current level. You can easily find this information by checking the user list or their user card. Here is a concise list of user types:

Grey League:

  • New users start here at level 1.
  • They remain in this league until they make their first token purchase.
  • Grey users have a grey badge.
  • Chat can be disabled for Grey users in your room.

Bronze League:

  • Users enter this league upon their first token purchase, reaching level 10.
  • From this point onwards, leveling up requires spending tokens.
  • Bronze users have a bronze badge and can become ex-Bronze if they run out of tokens.

Silver League:

  • Silver users have a silver badge and can become ex-Silver if they run out of tokens.

Gold League:

  • Gold users have a gold badge.
  • They cannot become ex-Gold even if they run out of tokens.
  • Previous Gold users are now Ultimate members, retaining their privileges.

Diamond League:

  • Diamond users have a purple badge.
  • They cannot become ex-Diamond even if they run out of tokens.

Royal League:

  • Royal users have a red badge.
  • They cannot become ex-Royal even if they run out of tokens.

Legend League:

  • The highest league is the Legend League.
  • Legend users have a red badge with a distinctive star.
  • They cannot become ex-Legend even if they run out of tokens.

Ultimate membership:

  • The former Gold membership has been replaced with the Ultimate membership.
  • Previous Gold users have been upgraded to Ultimate members with unchanged privileges.
  • Ultimate members can have a badge with an orange color and a star, and they can belong to any league.
  • Ultimate members have additional features like private messaging, anonymous tips, invisible mode, and the ability to become Knights for room moderation.

You can easily identify Ultimate members by their distinctive orange badge with a star in the chat. These members can be part of any league, and their username color will match their league, along with the Ultimate badge.

Admins

Admins are members of the Stripchat team who oversee the platform's activity and provide assistance to users when needed. They play a crucial role in ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

An administrator can visit your room at any time without any warning.

Administrators can be identified by the unique Blue color on their names followed by the small star and the admin symbol.

The King and Knights

The King is the top contributor in the chatroom within the previous 12 hours of live streaming. This designation is automatically determined in the chat, and it is visible to other users. The recognition of being the King inspires competition among users to strive for this title.

Your most dedicated users who have subscribed to the Ultimate membership can assist you in moderating your chatroom, ensuring it remains a welcoming and respectful environment. To do this, you simply need to appoint them as your Knights. This role grants them the authority to mute any user, regardless of their league or level, if that user engages in rude or offensive behavior in the chat. This authority lasts for the subsequent 24 hours.

Selecting your Knights is a significant responsibility, so it's crucial to choose them carefully.

Followers and Friends

Users who follow you will see your profile on their index page whenever you're online. Encourage your fans to click "Notify when online" to receive push and email notifications when you're live. You can also follow other models, and they will appear in your "My Followings" tab, allowing you to receive instant notifications when they're online. Accepting friend requests from users grants them the ability to initiate chats with you for free.

Control Over Your Audience

On Stripchat, models have the ability to prevent specific countries or regions from watching their shows. This feature offers control over your audience, although it's important to remember that users using VPNs may still access your live broadcasts.

Maintaining a positive chat room environment is crucial. Mute or ban from your chat any user who’s spamming, harassing, or being offensive. You can also ban long-time lurkers. You can ban users for 24 hours, 30 days, or forever.

If you accidentally block or mute a user, don't worry—there's a solution. To unblock a user, go to your list of banned users, click the pencil icon next to their name, and hit Save. To unmute a user, utilize the red "muted" icon next to their message in the public chat or from their user card.

The world of Stripchat is a dynamic and interactive one, filled with unique features and tools designed to enhance the experience for both models and viewers. The sounds of tips, user typologies, geo-blocking, and moderation options all contribute to creating a vibrant and engaging community. Whether you're a model or a viewer, understanding these aspects can help you make the most of your Stripchat journey.
