all you see nowadays in a stream is streamers giving shoutouts to new subscribers,paypal donations, bit donations...you barely see any gameplay anymore.
then you go to the smaller streams and all they do is shouting out new followers, hoping to get partnered with twitch.

this is nothing but a business anymore. its disgusting!

You had better start your own stream to show them how it's done

Stop watching bad streamers.

I don't watch any streamers that read donations on stream or act like they have ADHD for energy levels.

Wait, so if someone donates money to you (or just gives you money via subscription) you shouldn't say thanks? That's odd.

When you're not a huge streaming channel and people like your content and follow you, you're not supposed to thank them for following? (I usually see people say "thanks for following.")

I think watching streaming might not be for you if those things really bother you. Do the people you watch stop playing a game whenever they thank someone or give a shout out?

i worded it wrong, its not about them thanking people, its about how subs/donations and all that stuff are a thing in the first place.
back then streamers were streaming for fun, now its a business. i watch a lot of twitch and today, when they launched vodcasts, it dawned on me how awful it really is.

What if I just stream some porn for 'face cam' while I play and not say anything?

Oh no, people are providing entertainment and are getting money for it!!!

We should make it so that they get no money for it and have to hold a full time job to pay bills instead. Since having subs and donations is soo terrible.

When I see a streamer or a youtuber that I like watching, I WANT them to be able to make money off of doing those things so that they can focus on putting out more content.

They're lowering the quality of their product in order to maximize money from it.
That's definitely complaint-worthy.

And it's not like they have much room to work with! Playing a video game online is already among of the lowest quality videos, right next to youtube poop.

Then you should watch higher quality streams, or smaller streams where it's not a big deal.

The most legit thing that has ever been done on twitch.

Everything else is just people trying to become fake youtube billionaires.

I also have no idea who the fuck pays these people to play video games

Actually went to a stream where this happened.
Was taken down within 2 minutes after I arrived. Not sure how long it was going before then.

Twitch is okay. I stay away from big streamers mostly. There's a guy I recently started to watch who does nothing but learm how to speed run NES games 40 hours a week. He got an 11:39 in Ninja Gaiden and now he's working on SMB sub 5min. I like to put that on as background noise sometimes but I never talk or anything.
