Why does Twitch chat exist? Why do people partake in this shitshow called Twitch chat? Your messages are like throwing a bucket of sand to Sahara Desert, or pouring a glass of water to the sea.
I understand if it's used to actually talk with people and contact the streamer and possibly ask them questions about things that they are streaming but majority of streams nowadays go like this: >streamer plays his shitty game for 15 hours nonstop >people spam the chat with stupid shit like emotes and pastas, they "laugh" in a choir and sometimes repeat and mimic stuff the streamer just said like parrots Every time something remotely funny happens, "LUL, LMAOO, LOLOOOOOLOLO, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH" And nobody actually means it, they're just watching the screen of their computers with bloodshot eyes, dry lips, leaning on their hand, staring with empty eyes like a soulless fucking husk of a corpse.
Why do people think their messages would matter in the cesspool of tens of thousands of other spam comments? Why won't majority of the streamers use the slow mode to reduce the spam and to actually filter most of the shit to see the comments that actually matter?
I love channels with very few followers / subs because you get to actually communicate with others and the streamers themselves.
Where did they go wrong with it and how should they fix it? I say they should disable it altogether
Fucking hell OP, visit some smaller streams sometime

why do people watch other people play video games at all? i still can't wrap my mind around twitch as a whole, let alone the clusterfuck of a chatbox.

Large viewer streams generally are garbage like that with their chat. For example the difference between SingSing chat as it is now, and the SingSing chat when he started streaming years ago. You could actually talk with the fucker in his goddamn stream instead of it being cancer 24/7.

thousands of people watching something and when they fuck up it's funny to spam the same shit in chat and watch it all fly past.
Did you not watch the bob ross twitch? Did you not join in spamming RUINED and SAVED when he made one single brush stroke?

Sometimes I watch some streams with not many people watching, like the Overwatch player cocco, from Envyus, and the chat's pretty comfy and he actually answers most of the questions. >But why would you watch instead of playing the game Sometimes I just want to watch an actual good player playing my favorite heroes so I can learn a thing or two.

I used to do it to kill time, nice watching streamers who know how to play the game doing shit too. Used to watch a stream for World of Tanks so you got to see how he played and learn from it.

Like a year ago when the spam was almost all ridiculous copypastas it was pretty funny, especially since the streamer would almost always read it at some point and get upset. But now it's mostly just emote spam which is totally pointless.
Logan Torres
Truth to be told, I dont watch streams of simple gameplay If there's something I watch, it's Games Done Quick. The cancer that I've witnessed is mostly from youtube videos that include twitch chat in them.

Isaiah Turner

Pretty much what I think anytime someone types lol into any chat. Some Twitch chats are cool though, especially the ones that move at a decent pace.
The huge channels with fast chats really are cancer where everyone is trying to suck up to mods, or the caster. It's like most of those weirdos ignore even each other and if you so much as ask a question related to the game, you get ignored by 1k+ people.
Jaxon Rodriguez
The only two girl gamers I ever enjoyed watching were BrittanyVenti and Kaceytron, and that's just because their casts were an act. The only people who really hated them were 'spergy retards who didn't get it was an act, but then I see cunts (literally because she showed hers on cam) like LegendaryLea who make all girls look stupid.

The bigger question is why do people give money to streamers?
I don't understand why someone would give money to a streamer so they can have fun. The amount of donations bigger channels get is outrageous.

They make retards 'sperg out though, which is far more entertaining than glorified cam whoring.

Hearthstone, like almost any card game, involves the better skilled player having a limited edge over their opponent. There's almost always a chance you can win no matter who you are and who you're playing.
World of Warcraft, like almost any MMO, will invariably reward you for the time you have invested. It helps to be skilled, but it's not a requirement.
tl;dr they're two games where it's literally impossible to fail 100% of the time.

The smaller streamers are much better with chat, and I like watching how people approach certain games (though I stream more than watch).

Michael Allen
The reason people partake in it is because they can then say they 'belong to a group', especially if they're subscribed to some streamer cunt so they got the mark of circlejerk next to their name and they can spam so funneh emotes in chat. Especially if someone new joins so the chat is full of the streamer's "signature" emote.
Jace Gomez
You've literally never done this when you were a kid?

I sincerely doubt gachimuchi will ever truly become normie simply because of the nature of it.

Aaron Edwards
But those people allows the twitch camwhores/sluts to exist. Same for those who seriously donate and subscribe to people like kacey, because they're being "le ironic" when in fact their actions then allows existence of camwhores to an extent, because people like kacey are what those camwhores look up to. So, in this case those people who don't care or whatever are part of the problem. Although I'm fairly sure some twat will come out of woodwork to defend camwhores.

Why does Cred Forums always get so upset about female streamers? Most of them barely get over 500 viewers and the big time streams get far more donations.

Lucas Barnes
>when you make a spelling mistake and twitch chat pauses at that exact moment
Landon Mitchell
Nah. Smaller streams are prone to forming small communities that become cliques. This is usually really bad for the streamer, as cliques try to be very elitist and inclusive and stand offish with those not in the clique, and this is the exact opposite of what a streamer needs to grow. Had a couple of small streams with great streamers that I've left because the community was a circlejerk clique with mods siding with whoever has seniority.

Why do people like douchebags? All the biggest streamers are like Grade A assholes who treat all their viewers like pure garbage and abuse the shit out of people. Witwix, admiralbahroo, dansgaming, lirik, sodapoppin, etc.
Logan Gonzalez
You'd certainly have plenty of lucrative opportunities available to you, that's for certain.
Colton Clark
You're right but I think the bigger you are the more distant you become. You already had 5 subs in the past 10 minutes why bother thanking the next 5 excessively.
Michael Allen
Because plenty of other streams twice your size can? Dans game can't say a thing to someone subbed to him for 5 years, but another 15k streamer can, who has 3 times the viewers Dan gets.
Also I wasn't talking about "sub" or donation shout outs. I'm talking these people actively fuck with their viewers
>dansgaming makes up rules on the fly and bans people retroactively for it, puts chat in massive slow modes for no reason, taunts his viewers constantly >Witwix literally permabans people for no reason and just picks out people when he looks at chat sometimes and permabans them. Even subs >Bahroo taunts non-subs when going into sub mode, is snide and unappreciative to donators or subs, and bans people at the slightest provocation >sodapoppin is literally an entitled manchild who went on a tangent about being owed beta keys for OW because "I'm a big streamer!"

Didn't he also state people were stealing from him if they watched his streams without donating or subbing?
Also that reminds me. Bahroo bans people fo "lul" or any other sort of laughing emote when he gets salty.
Anthony Lewis
Ray's twitch chat is the only one I've ever taken part in.
Carter Allen
lul is legit an annoying emote but he should be a bitch about it
Cooper Powell
People want to feel included in what is going on, I liken it to when there is a sticky and faggots here just spam it for the sake of making the post count higher, whereas on twitch people like to see the chat move as fast as possible. Other than that, there are a few sad individuals that are literally convinced that they are having a 1 on 1 convo with the streamer among the hundreds/thousands of other fags spamming chat. It's really quite baffling/sad.
Liam Rodriguez
If these people are going to stream for a living, why don't any of them bother to get a good chair, like a Steelcase Leap v2 / Steelcase Gesture, or a Herman Miller Aeron?
Why the fuck do they use a $100 ikea chair if they're going to literally make their living by sitting down and playing video games?

Twitch stopped accepting anonymous requests, therefore livestreamer now requires you to have an access token, which can only be generated if you have an account, try and see for yourself.
