She said she was just gonna catch some sleep, plugged another dude's twitch channel and thanked everyone for watching unless I missed something (I wasn't watching the whole chat, just scrolled up when she went offline).

I was exaggerating. But she did seem upset about the chat, with good reason. Hopefully it straightens itself out, one way or another. She's an excellent streamer who deserves viewers.

Is anyone's chat moderated well enough to be tolerable but not over-policed? I used to read twitch chat a little bit until about halfway through AGDQ13 when my brain just started tuning it out completely.

With that many viewers? No, its just not possible. Most you can hope for if you have the option, is a sub only mode basically, or maybe make a bot script that autobans everyone that comes in.

Some people want the ability to communicate with viewers and the community and get super disappointed and frustrated when idiots come in to troll and ruin everything like it is their damned job.

I haven't watched his streams much since AGDQ, but Funkdoc had an excellent chat for a while. No idea if that's still the case.

It is, but he doesn't get the kind of viewers that make it a problem.

In speedrunning chats, pretty much all streams under 1500 viewers or so tend to do fine, assuming the streamer WANTS it to do fine. Getting above that, even relatively nice chats can go to hell very quickly if a nice joke gets turned into something less than nice, which on Twitch is not too uncommon. That said, I've never noticed Krystal to give a poo poo, though I didn't see exactly what happened tonight.

She's had poo poo like this before. That's why she doesn't stream with a mic, because then people would be creeping on her about her voice - according to a source who knows her, at least.

Yeah, I have no idea why twitch chats freak out at the idea of a biological female speedrunner. Gamers, man.

There's no such thing as "over-policed" in a chat with more than 500 viewers morons. Unless you're chessnetwork, at that point you need moobot on the harshest settings and half a dozen of active, mercyless moderators with itchy timeout/ban fingers to weed out all the creepy, horrible assholes.

I only had krystall's chat open for 30 seconds, but i saw maybe 10 "requests" for photos in various states of undress while the mod team was apparently a drunk clique pulling in-jokes with the creeps. It takes effort to have a random chat sample like that be significantly worse than LoL or CoD streams out there. :smith:

Twitch chats freak out all the time over women, even for things like "cameraman for Starcraft 2 tournament happens to focus on a female member of the audience for a split second" or "female announcer interviews League of Legends player" or "woman walks by the camera in a fighting game tournament." It doesn't matter what they're doing, at all. And if it's that bad for extremely minor glimpses of women like that, imagine how it gets when you have a stream that is actually being run by a *~real life girl~*. The speedrunning part has nothing to do with it.

Most gaming communities on the internet really are a sight to be seen. I helped my friend host a stream at a Halo LAN party we threw for part of his final project in digital broadcasting. After his professor tuned out we got the brilliant idea to put the couple girls that were playing on the POV TV and hook them up with mics. That chat room of no more than 30 people at a time had some of the most creative sexual things I've seen outside of DeviantArt Journal entries. Of course the party itself was a smaller version, with every guy there fawning over the one single chick who was there. Good times, good times.

What it should come down to is "Why are we [Them] even asking these stupid loving things." I swear watching the twitch chat is like watching newly discovered cavemen adapt to things they've never seen in their life.

Of course, and there's ways to circumvent any kind of ban, the idea is that it takes the rear end in a top hat some effort and time to reconnect, while the mod has to click exactly once.
This is a bit off-topic though, i'll just stick to hiding the chat on larger channels and some genius at twitch has made it trivially easy.

On smaller channels (with the runner actually being able to engage and maintain a conversation) it's brilliant though.

Chatrooms with hundreds of internet strangers with no personal accountability and basically no barrier to entry are bound to be lovely. It's still baffling how misogynistic people will act. The amusement they presumably get comes from the reactions people make to it so it's best not to engage.

It's great because Scyther and Tauros are such massive shits. Scyther got in the ball but Tauros is being awful.
