People Who Stream For Money Are Ruining The Gaming Community
If you stream for money shame on you. Gaming should be a hobby not a job. You people begging for money make me sick. I don't know what's worse the people streaming for money or the idiots who donate to them?
While you're sitting on your ass fighting aliens you have little kids fighting cancer. Shame on you...

1 Replykey word, Donate, can't do anything about it

2 RepliesI follow one streamer who's small time compared to the people with 100K followers. He doesn't accept personal donations cause he has a job, all donations go to a charity the extra life one I believe. So there's a positive.

16 RepliesStop with your bullshit about kids with cancer this and that. My family struggles with fighting cancer and medical bills. I myself am at almost a 70% more of a chance of obtaining colon and/or pancreatic cancer simply from my genes. There is nothing I can do but wait and fear an extreme possibility of getting cancer. Streamers getting money and cancer have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Before you throw around cancer so liberally why don't learn a thing or two about peoples' struggles. If you honestly think streaming and not helping kids with cancer are related then you're a complete moron beyond any hope or prayer. People who say shit like this are disgusting human beings. It's vile, crude, and disrespectful to people who actually have these real-life family problems.

4 RepliesYeah live by my outdated conventions, don't get paid for doing something fun/what you love. Suffer until you're old and crusty. Hell, people who play instruments, or sing, or draw shouldnt get paid either, those things are hobbies too. In fact everyone should suffer like I do then get angry at people who have fun making money. Making money should never be enjoyable.

14 RepliesLet me call up the NFL real quick and tell them their industry is selfish and unproductive. I'm sure they'll shut it all down.

16 RepliesOk, so athletes, actors and actresses, musicians. I guess they don't need to get paid either.

3 RepliesEdited by Rogue Kasper: 6/6/2015 11:13:23 PMDonate to causes not people. plus they net an income based on amount of traffic to their respected channel (YouTube/twitch) from the adds on their video/stream

Who the hell is stupid enough to give someone money to watch them play? I usually leave if my friends make me watch them play video games while I'm trying to chill. Morons

Entertainment.

I dont see how they are "ruining" the community. It really doesnt affect me negatively, at most i see new games that may interest me or maybe even find a new thing to do in a game. I have no problem with these guys making money off of entertaining us. You pay for movies don't you? Isnt that essentially the same thing. It brings you entertainment, and brings them income. If you dont like it, dont watch or donate to these streamers. But dont bitch about it just cuz u dont like it
-
They're entertaining, but I never donate [spoiler]for what, playing a video game?[/spoiler]
-
I can't believe anyone is dumb enough to pay... It's like those websites that say... I charged up $10000 on a credit card, please donate to help me pay it off.

1 ReplyWell said OP.

2 RepliesI would agree with you but that would make me a capitalism hating communist. And I like capitalism. It makes me happy and provides me with things like destiny and twitch. I'm pretty sure Cuba doesn't have twitch and I don't think communist Russia ever developed a video game. Gonna have to go with capitalism on this one. And since you probably wrote about the video game you play on a shiny new phone I'm betting deep down you like capitalism too. So stfu and keep enjoying freedom d-bag.

4 RepliesLol #vomit

Hey! I got nothing.... Carry on

2 Repliesmost youtubers/streamers do it as a hobby. They don't care about the money
-
For charity then I find that acceptable. For personal gain, no.
-
The people who donate are plain stupid.
-
What are you doing for kids with cancer?
-
This is the first appropriate post I have ever read on here. Anyone who gives money to a video game streamer is an absolute idiot. I mean damn how stupid and careless with your money can you be?
