Baked Alaska's gibbering livestreamed walk after his twitter ban was legitimately scary. Like, literal stream-of-consciousness ranting about communists tearing him away from his 'family', trying to work up USA-USA chants in the chat, the works. All while roaming around parking lots, roadsides and such. It'd actually be less creepy if he was crying of raging, but there is a weird detached vibe to him that really does make me believe he'd pull out a gun and shoot up people without ever breaking a sweat or having some inner conflict over it.

He streamed it from his youtube channel that got posted in the thread last page. Highlights: https://twitter.com/jbillinson/status/930925539367546881 https://twitter.com/willsommer/status/930923906181091328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

So a dude got banned from twitter and took to the streets and fast food places, rambling nonesense into a video camera while looking like a homeless man who fell into a trendy sunglasses store? I don't think I could possibly be That Online.

I watched about 15 minutes of it while it was happenining, and the hunger for validation of ANY kind was pathetic at first, then just sad. It'd be like me bothering my bus driver about SA forum drama. "They told ME to take it to take it to Thunderdome! You'd upvote my thread, wouldn't you, mr?"

Dude was getting donations in chat the whole time; this is great for his brand and even better if Twitter chickens out and lets him back on.

I feel like at some point while you might have a strong brand it will become one that nobody wants to be seen dead associated with. Like, hitler has a very strong brand nowadays, but even the neo nazis are a little iffy about associating with him. This is the hitler of corncobbing.

I get his points, didn't miss any of them actually. I even like that he rails hard against misogynistic weirdos who are trying to turn the issue around, or even side with him (which he then refuses). I can see the distinction between women who use sex to sell their streams versus women who don't use sex to sell their streams, but the issue lies more with the grosso misogynistic sexless culture in Twitch itself, not the people who are making a living off of being attractive.

Yeah the deal is that twitch is straight up letting the dumb "IRL" category turn into a camsite and that feels kinda off, considering twitch came from phasing out the camsite-y parts of jtv in the first place. Pretty much every time I clip something, the popular clips or recommended stuff that's ever from IRL is ladies with their tits hangin out, not "Oh there's someone in tight shirt" either, I mean this kinda thing.

You'll never keep kids away from porn, even in the days of photocopies in the woods, but this isn't a moral argument about that, it's more that you'll never keep kids from cigarettes and booze either, but we still look down on stores that promote it to them. e: Also it's nice to have sites that you can browse at work without random unexpected nws stuff. I know that's  posting on forums where there's an ever present chance of the goatman, but at least people try to mark poo poo here.

Guavanaut posted:Probably on the basis that sites offering porn or direct links to porn usually have to have some kind of age verification and a way of ensuring that they're not hawking to minors. So the argument should be for stricter age restrictions and verifications, not against people who are making money doing this. Further, the argument should be more aimed towards video games with explicit sexual/violent content, or with streams who are using explicit language. Someone talking about their day but also wearing a pushup-bra seems like the least of your worries, especially when access to their explicit sexual content is locked behind a paywall.

Morality? don't you think it's a bit odd to see that kind of stuff on a site that's primarily kids watching people play minecraft or whatever? if not then that's whatever i guess, i doubt we'll change eachother's opinion. twitch does have a creative and a music section, so yeah it's not all games, but those sections seem pretty cool. people are making cosplays or playing piano or whatever, that stuff is interesting. there's a community there. i think they originally wanted the IRL section to be stuff like people exploring cities, hanging out, doing fun things. instead there's people selling snapchats where they get naked? it's pretty weird to me, personally. i can only speak for my own opinion that i have here.

I think it's far worse that you have people (Destiny included) calling literal 12 year olds autistic and telling them to go kill themselves. Content that promotes violence seems like a far bigger issue than content that might lead to titillation.

I think there's maybe a bit of a difference between age inappropriate content and functional pay per view porno which kind of veers into more like grooming or some poo poo. Like if your site is facilitating kids participating in online sex chat that's a bigger problem than just them being able to view titties. Twitch has an interactive element.

If it's a site aimed primarily aimed at kids watching Minecraft, are you also against people using Twitch to stream the new Wolfenstein game? After all, violence is proven to be far more harmful to a developing child than a nipple ever could be. Right? And hell, Minecraft itself can be quite violent. You slaughter tons of animals, and animal cruelty is a sign of psychopathy, after all. So let's chuck out Minecraft too. So what should be on Twitch, the site for kids and kids alone?

If some ladies wanna get more clicks by wearing low cut tops, more power to 'em, and I'm not gonna shame people for doing camsite poo poo or whatever. Maybe Twitch should moderate people advertising porn on their channels but other than that it seems like a lot of moralizing and "not real gamers" poo poo. edit: This is with the caveat that I know why people have problems with booth babes and that kind of poo poo of "advertise thing by putting a girl who isn't wearing much on it" which has it's own issues, but I'm just talking about people running their personal channels or whatever using their cleavage which is nobody's business but theirs.

I agree with you to a point but there's also just a lot of slutshaming about girls who are running their own streams or whatever and just declaring that "ugh they're not real gamers" or "ugh this isn't good content" and that it's just about tits, even if they are deliberately showing off for the stream for clicks. We can talk all day about personal agency vs. objectification or whatever but I figure if you wanna bring people in by showing off for the stream or whatever, that's up to you.

It's not great, but it's not a problem unique to twitch or even one that Twitch suffers from more than anyone else. Focusing on them is asinine. It's not really asinine if you use the platform and also dislike the already hilariously misogynist trends among people who play videogames. Having the big videogame site also double as a titty site is not really a situation I think that merits "yes but society itself is bad therefore who cares?" as a defence.
