ranking error chaturbate

[kimberhot]

Hello! I need help @punkerbarbie
I noticed for the past at least 7-8 days there are erros in the chaturbate ranking. On the first page there are thumbnails of rooms with 50-100 users, maximum 5-10 registred members, barely 100 tk in 1 h and no interaction, while other rooms like my own with more viewers, more tk and more interaction are stuck on page 4-5.
I checked from different browsers, different devices and while logged off on each.
I have print screens of the issue from different days and also talked to other cb models, at least 5 experience and see the same error.
Can i please get some help? Did the ranking change? Because this doesn't feel ok , and I need to know why the injustice is happening and why is it lasting for so long? Do we not get the same opportunitties on the site anymore?
Thank you!
Kimberhot
P.s : I attach print screen from yesterday but if needed i have proof of the same error from multiple days

a low satisfaction score pushes you down to a lower page
and the ranking is also based on the rooms you visited and the visited hashtags

I have 100 % satisfaction score and like i said..i checked from different devices, different browsers while logged off.

I don't think it's an error, I think it's a new feature (for lack of a better term). Even when I am logged off the front page will show models similar to other models I've visited in the past or hashtags I've used when searching for models. I'm pretty sure this is a recent change. When I last checked (yesterday) 6/15 top spots on the page had fewer than 30 viewers in the room and all of those were models I have visited before, but not followed, or were using tags that I search for frequently. And I just noticed that if I click the "Discover" tab the page has "Most popular" and "Show all", where the "Most popular" has the traditional model ranking/listing (or so it seems), and "Show all" has the new customized view.

As a viewer I rather like the new system as previously I never bothered with the front page since I don't particularly care about the most popular models.

As a lesser known model and not exactly "industry norm" in appearance or body type, I also appreciate this and have picked up new viewers that I hope become regulars.

That said, this probably means they should change how the contest works? But that's above my pay grade and I'll likely never achieve it, so I'm not all that invested in the answer.

The recommended slots impact anonymous users now, they don't show up in that order in the API so can only assume it doesn't change the contest rankings either.

I don't think that's the case because the same rooms were on 1st page from all the devices i was checking while offline. So it wasn't a rotation. If something in the ranking system changed I think it's fair everyone should know and get equal opportunities that's why i need an answer. For me I do not think it's fair. I have 450 000 followers, i put in the work too. I have 100% satisfaction score yet i am stuck on 5th page. If the rooms on front page are rotated then they all should be. And if we are not then I want to know we are not treated as equals anymore.

I get were you are coming from but in the same time we all should be treated as equals. Because we all put in the work. So if the rooms are rotated on the first page then we should all be rotated and get a slot there, if not then the opportunitties are not the same for everyone. For me it's not fair because my rank is pushed down because slots in front of me are ocupied by rooms with less viewers, and less followers, less tokens, less action. I have 450 000 followers and i put in the work too, the hours, the stress so i think we should be treated as equals. Everyone should benefit from it then. If we are not, it means that some are favorizied and how is that fair?!

Only it does because i checked. Also the same rooms were on first page from multiple devices belonging to different persons so it's not a matter of recommended rooms. I was very carrefull in monitorizing this issue the past days, oterwise I wouldn't have started the topic.

 

[kimberhot]

I recivied a response from support. Yes, the algorithm changed and yes rooms with less impact are pushed in front page. It's a new thing.

There was a long(ish) debate about the algorithm and satisfaction score this summer in this thread :

...and you believe these people with max 5-10 registered users are not recommended rooms? Alright feel free to send me some of the names and I'll be happy to double check.

Yeah I'm really failing to see the issue here. Sounds like to me the "new" rank is the "true" rank and the previous rank was based on the algo before the change. Since it's by previous rooms/tags visited...it seems like we all have more of an advantage now because guys can see similar rooms that they were looking for to begin with but as you're well aware all of this rank talk really rustles my jimmies.

chaturbate answered and told me they are trying a new thing. they diid change rank. I know you wnat to think i am paranoid but looks like i am not. I got the offcial response form them. They are not recommended rooms because thy are pushing the same rooms on the first page for everyone. a rela rnak should apply to everyone the same. so the answer to @Vixxen81 too : real rank should be an objective parameter applied to everyone equay oterwise it causes inequality. Since i did recieve the official response and i was right, any debate on teh subject is futile

But it is applied to everyone, I'm just as affected by it as you are but you're not happy that it's helping me and supposedly hurting you.

it is not applied to everyone sweety! if you are pushing girls in front based on what you think will suit ppl this week favoritism is it's not applied to everyone. but good luck! we will talk in a few weeks. i survived 13 years in the industry on all changes and still remained relevant. I am signaling an injust ranking system for all of you not just me. take care! case closed!

It is a new thing, they started testing with some people in August but it's still the recommended slots. I have not seen someone recommended to EVERYONE yet but I haven't spent much time checking the list lately but it's easy enough to confirm it if you provide an example.

"Thanks for following up. The recent homepage changes are part of ongoing updates to our system. These updates can sometimes affect how rooms appear as the system adjusts and learns from new data.

Placement isn’t based on manual decisions or follower count. The algorithm uses a variety of activity and interaction signals and continues to evolve as we refine it for the best overall viewer experience.

We’ve shared your feedback and observations with our Product Team as they monitor the update’s performance. Thank you for your patience while we continue improving the system.
