Actual YouTube/Twitch drama thread II

[arus2001]

Yeah, can't say any job is a sure thing forever. Some may be more stable due to a perceived societal demand, which I'd argue streaming falls pretty low on, but bad management can easily ruin a good thing. Sometimes there are external factors beyond even that.

Otherwise, it's just legit reality TV. Most of the time, anyway. With a lot of people cutting the cord for cable TV, dropping a 5'er on someone you like is also more financially viable. More so if you're keen enough to navigate the high seas for what big media content you do want.

I'll admit to buying a $70 art tablet for someone, myself. Context here being I had a pretty good day and got home with a nice chunk of cash in my pocket. So to pass it forward, I chipped in, further knowing what having the proper tools as an artist can do to motivate. They've gotten hundreds of hours of art streams out of it already and I've helped them learn some digital techniques along the way. And while I was just a regular viewer for them at the time, the kindness did wind up opening the door for a friendship, too, as they were not expecting anyone to help as quickly as the goal was met as someone who maybe gets 10-30 viewers tops. Plus their dog is cute, and I'm a sucker for doggos.

Of course, I know some power viewers that'll drop hundreds, if not thousands, monthly on streamers. I certainly wish I had that kind of disposable income, and there are some I worry who do maybe have a bit of a problem given the parasocial risks, but as long as chargebacks aren't happening (as is the case with some major donations as some trolls like to "break the streamer" for clout), I'd honestly rather this cash go to individuals over megacorps even if twitch is getting an unjustified cut.

But yeah, if you do live stream, a good background helps. If you collect things related to content, showing them off is an easy way to generate some interest. Pets making regular appearances is also a nice trick (a second cat/dog cam helps if they really take off). Otherwise, shit's not gonna happen overnight, and twitch rarely accepts partner status on new qualified applicants. Just getting affiliate within a few months should be considered fair progress.

Former porn star/Twitch streamer Adriana Chechik was injured after jumping into a “foam ball pit” at Twitchcon as part of the event’s sponsored game. She broke her tailbone and back in two places and is having emergency back surgery today.

Also, Amouranth’s stalker showed up at Twitchcon

What a shit show

Oh right. That's another reason why I'm iffy about being a personality on the internet. Crazy ass MFers.

Though yeah, hope the guy got the cops called on him or something.

[Salodin]

Anything for those clicks, bro. Enjoy the surgery.

Couldn't pay me to jump in a 1-2ft pit full of foam blocks bought on alibaba

[Andalusian girls]

i know she's a sex worker so her humanity is already a matter of contention but let us blame corporate malfeasance over its victims nay

[Zealot]

I'm actually gonna go the extra step and say what the fuck, don't make fun of a porn star getting hurt, that's like the last person I want getting hurt for any reason.

[Krandor]

She retired from porn earlier this year and is now just a twitch streamer afaik. She went the backwards route compared to most of the twitch thots

[thetruepandagod]

Spoiler: show

i hope her recovery is swift

A veteran then, we should be thanking her for her service.

It ain't like she magically teleported onto the little podiums in the 'pit'
How did she not notice cannonballing was probably not a good idea

[NynJa]

Your first mistake was expecting someone who went from porn star to twitch streamer to have any semblance of intelligence.

[Forte]

Now I'm even more interested.

I've got a camera, I've got a Twitch account, I've got games. What else do I need?

Stunning lack of common sense and an inability to save money.

And tits.

My girlfriend's rack is pretty huge, I'll just have her stand in frame from time to time.

The other two I've got on lock.

Why not just have the frame be solely her rack rather than your mug with it making a guest appearance? Then you be a real streamer.

We got us a new copypasta fam

I just wanna hear, because I grew up- My name is Zach The Avenger and I've been making public access video game programming for 25 years, and I grew up around queer people. My first drag show was when I was 10 years old, and Tony Denon who produced the g-word down in Tuscon, Arizona exposed me to drag queens and how glamorous they could be, and there is a part of me still that wants to be around queers, even though I'm like a hetero dude and I kinda just wanted to hear you guy- cause it makes me feel young again, you know? And like I feel like queers have a lot to offer, and like I just wanna hear like do you guys even want me... in your chat rooms?... Do you?

[Corrderio]

What the fuck...
