Bad Purchase
Jun 17, 2019




Methanar posted:

is there new drama

yes, due to it being bought by amazon, a company that treats its warehouse workforce very badly to the point that they have to piss in bottles due to not being afforded bathroom breaks.

this has understandably upset many twitch viewers and streamers. in response the twitch community developed an expression of protest, "Piss On Geoff", suggesting that warehouse workers should relieve themselves on (at the time) CEO Geoff Bezos.

more recently, this has been abbreviated to "POG" or even "poggers".

1. That is NOT a ball pit.
2. That is a FOAM pit.
3. LMAO at that thing being ankle deep.
4. Twitch is dumb and I am tired of gaming YouTubers telling me watch them on Twitch, because everyone knows that the 10-minute edits of the streams only show the actual good/funny parts of what are probably 5-hour snooze fests.

There are claims of other people getting ankle and knee injuries from the "ballpit" that looks somehow even more shallow than Dashcon's kiddie pool. At least in that one the worst thing that could happen was getting covered in piss :stare: Also reportedly both attendees and staff were treating disabled people like poo poo by shoving wheelchair users out of the way, accusing people of faking disabilities to skip lines, then encouraging people to actually do that.

Also a lot of drinks got stolen / potentially spiked and at least one accused pedo streamer showed up to attend

Don't go to conventions but especially don't go to conventions run by a gamer site that has a new scandal every week

I don't do anything with Twitch.

The most common complaint I've heard from others, is that they have like really strict rules about bad words and anything raunchy, unless you are a young attractive looking girl.

sexually harassing streamers is just the flipside of the coin of streamers sexually harassing viewers, so it's all balanced out

after more research, the streamer I posted is surrounded by groomers or problematic artists (specifically lolicon)
