Why do people give streamers money? Are they lonely men...

>Why do people give streamers money?

The same reason people pay for any media - to incentivize the content creator.

My favorite streamers would have stopped streaming long ago if I didn't make it a habit to drop them $10 each stream.

to somebody in a furnished apartment, playing on a very expensive PC, sitting in a 500$ chair
it's not like they're desperate to make ends meet, and even if they were that still wouldn't be enough to give them my charity

fuck off

maybe i'll fuck in instead
how you like them apples porkchop?

bait

so they're buskers
they play a song and you can drop some change into their hat if you feel like it

I wonder how many would agree

Adults watch streamers? I honestly have never met an actual adult that watched twitch streaming.

Millenials who live through the internet.
No life experience, no social skills, overexposure to social media.

It's pretty simple and very fucked up, but yes. It's mainly just kids who want attention and don't know how to do anything, sprinkled with a few actual incels ontop.

No.

We make up the majority of streaming audiences actually.

If this is real… I'm betting money you act like a moron for the benefit of your 14 year old audience. Have shitty "techno" music to launch your play? Make "funny" faces when you die or do something stupid? Talk about Fortni… wait... you play Fortnite don't you?

You don't feel guilty taking all those little kid's Christmas and birthday money?

I watch the Starcraft 2 videos of Lowko a lot on YouTube. And I would enjoy it if he keeps making them.

I don't care about Twitch streams though and I don't even have an account. But I imagine they are the new IRC town squares?

This, and just watch twitch chat for proof. It's all just memes and surface intelligence vapid shit. 100% 16-21 year olds.

Not according to what I've seen. I browsed it a couple of times out of curiosity. Just reading the comments... it was quite clear that no one there was over 16.

Isn't that how it's basically always been? It's the same thing with people who donate to people who make fanart, the entire existence of Patreon, etc

Social media has made people less social and feeling more isolated. They use donation thank-yous as a substitute for friendship because clicking donate is easier than actually cultivating a relationship.

Well duuh, the people paying are adults with pay checks.

/eceleb/ board when?

>content creator
Imagine being this fucking retarded. You think people pay her for her content?

Sure, if by "content" you mean the content of her pants.

It makes me feel nice to hear a woman say my name. It's the closest thing I'll ever have to a relationship, and I know I have to pay to hear that, so I have no choice. That's why I donate to my favorite streamer.

they are legit white men

their women are busy fucking other races so white men have to settle with twitch streamers.

>OMG SHE THANKED ANIMEPROELITE445, HOW ROMANTIC!

I mean I guess at least you're one step above all the ERP creepers in games these days

Kill yourself my dude. Seriously.

Why would an adult (with a brain) give some douchebag playing vidya real fucking money? Why not play the game yourself?

I like FightinCowboy. I watch some of his walk throughs now and then when I get stuck on a game he's already played. But, I'm not going to give him fucking money for playing a video game.

That's fine. Based on the sound of things you will be dead soon from being a starving hobo and can no longer pollute the internet with your stupid shit.

People give money to middle aged men too, look at DSP.

Twitch's monetization scheme accounts for a portion of the audience running add blockers. If you really don't want them to profit off your attention, stick to watching the VODs.

>Why would an adult (with a brain) give some douchebag playing vidya real fucking money?
because it's not about the game. People are frustrated for friends and gf's.

I have no idea how he hasn't starved yet.

I guess that makes sense, but it's a pretty sad life to be living when you float some dipshit $20 for making funny faces in Fortnite.

because they're beta losers that's literally the answer. they're just weak and lonely betas.

This isn't real. No way. Absolutely not

No one's disputing it's sad and pathetic as fuck. And it's ironic that it's like this in the west despite all the sexual freedoms and women sleeping around more than ever.

who keeps posting this ancient picture of Miss Rage?

Imagine if twitch watchers put that effort and compassion towards the homeless. They would even talk to them too and it would be a blast. Drop a fiver and hear about how Lenny killed a gook with his bare hands and you might even get to see a hobo fight.

It's real user, she really does have a husband

>the woman I was courting was hiding her marital status
Absolutely despicable! He should go see her father and demand he gets his money back, and have him sort out his womenfolk.

It is, and it's not even the worst.

Being a Cuck is also a fetish

>wait wut?

Not sure why you're mad. If she's making fitness videos, then she's a content creator.

Here in the Netherlands we have a saying:

Even a donkey doesn't bump into the same stone twice.

No, it's a factual mental illness. Their brain is wired backwards.

i gave some to this girl on the actual cam girl site. She was quite upfront there.

So living your life in front of a camera, doing what you want and then going off-camera (hopefully) to fuck your bf is "content creation"?
You're right, this is actually worse than being a cuckold, it's way below "verified couples" whales on pornhub.

Meant for

what video game is she playing here?

I don't know, but she can't be very good at it. As she constantly takes her eyes off the screen.

Looks like guitar hero

Oh, But it is.

Jesus Christ, how you can stand being such a pathetic loser? If you grew a spine, stopped worshiping women like gods, and actually went out and tried to get women you might get something more then them saying your damn name. Is there anything left of your self esteem?

lmffao thats amouranth. SHe bans anyone who mentions shes' married. Hilariolus.

They desperately want human interaction (particularly with gamer girls).
Throwing money at the screen to have someone acknowledge their existence is the easiest way.

>white knighting this hard
I didn't know I could get this disgusted by "people".

what if they're just DJing good music?

Don't worry user she'll be selling her body to ugly old fat bald men in no time.

>amouranth
As pretty as she may be... her voice is grating.

She's not a streamer or anything like that, in case that's what you assume...
She's just a girl I met in a chat and have been talking to for some time now.

Yes, and?

>She's just a girl I met in a chat and have been talking to for some time now.
Yep white knighting hard. Please stop or I'll have to throw up.

I wouldn't even give money for that if I were a billionaire.

Can you at least explain what you mean?

??? But that's retarded nigga. Look, I can't stop you from paying dummies to say your name, but why not just pay a cam girl or an escort? Y

Here’s the thing.
Why not just go to a descent strip club instead?
Or hire an escort. Get it out of your system already.

You want to get fancy? Save your money and Go on a trip to Amsterdam and go nuts.

>bohoo this grrrrl has such a hard time (she has not, she's a woman)
>I wish I could give her money because she's a grrrl
>I just want to save this damsel in distress

Because they want a relationship, not transactional sex. "Supporting" and "interacting" with twitch thots is supposed to be a substitute for the former, not latter.

>Why not just go to a descent strip club instead?
>Or hire an escort. Get it out of your system already
A lot of these people are one of two things.
Underaged, or they're looking for attention.
The latter can't be solved by strippers and whores, but twitch streamers allow them to do enough mental gymnastics for the relationship to be "genuine" enough for them.

I think you misunderstood what I said.
Giving her some money won't save her at all.

But you also seem like an Incel, so your opinion is of no value anyway.

>Why not just go to a descent strip club instead?

kek in the state where I live a non-nude lap dance is $60 and the girls are required by law to wear pasties

>calling people incels on the Yea Forumsirgin board
Back to /r9k/

You can move out of your puritan shithole at any time

Yet you desperately want to give her money because grrrrl. Keep white knighting, I'm sure one day she will see what a nice guy you are and reward you with the sex.

The impression I've gotten is that strip clubs are a boomer meme from when porn wasn't readily available.

Nah, the real thing is very different from porn. Not necessarily in a good or bad way. Just different.

yikes dude

A good lap dance with a nude girl is no meme. Porn is very disconnected from reality, it's just you and a screen.

Every Twitch incel needs to be euthanized

it's fake you gullible dumbass

Oh come on, you knew what you were doing when giving 200 dollars to small time streamer, making you stand out from the crowd, as opposed to donating to a popular one where 200 is nothing and men are plenty. But you chickened out before attaining your goal.

Should have spent those 200 bucks on drugs to overdose, a gun to your head or a few gallons of bleach to drink.

Well duh, he is male and doesn't get showered with money just for existing like any woman.

That's it not a fetish. It is being a pathetic beta.
At least guys who go to doms get actual female contact

> being this delusional

i'd say have sex, but it's obvious you're never going to unless you pay for it.

Girls gain two points if they wear normal t shirts.

She might have become your girlfriend even and you could be making money together through her streaming gig.

ur a faget

>Are they lonely men, who don’t quite know how to connect with women if not through their bank accounts?
That's all women care about though. I'm not saying this as a criticism of women, or as something men should be depressed or angry about, just as a neutral fact about life.

we pay them so they can show us their gamer girl feets

Hey she has the same toes as I have!

It's entertainment value. I mean, if you watch hours and hours of these people, aren't you being entertained? Is that not worth something?
If you claim that it's not entertainment, then why are you watching them?

Look, no one is saying to *should* give money to streamers. Only that to many, the entertainment is worth the money.

It's already been proven false. Besides STPeach is very upfront about being married, so the mod's message doesn't even make sense

Because giving them money gives me no extra entertainment compared to watching them for free.

He is literally correct though. The big time male streamers may be egotistical retarded faggots but they still have to play the game halfway decently to get donations. You could stick a 1/10 woman in front of a camera and have her play the Sims and she will still get donations out the ass

That's a strange way to think of it. Isn't the free entertainment already of value? Why do you need "more" entertainment on top of what they're already doing?

Theres no benefit to giving money. I gain nothing compared to just watching for free.

Cool blog, now do us all a favor and kill all of your close relatives and then yourself.

I follow a girl who wears normal T-shirts. She's a good streamer. Staying mostly focused on the game, but still conversational, not at all obnoxious but with a good sense of humor.

But even in her plain t-shirts, you can still tell she has nice tits. It's subtle, when she gestures with her hands, or stretches, you can see she has some nice orbs under the loose fabric. She could probably be a booby streamer, if she wanted. But she doesn't want that kind of attention.

She's pretty much the perfect female streamer by Yea Forums's standards. Yet, she's lucky if she gets more than 10 viewers per stream. She's been at it for years, and averages around 8 viewers. The fact of the matter is, you all talk about this perfect image of a female streamer. But you don't watch them. You don't truly care. The only real way to get ahead in the streaming world, is either to be the slutty twitch ho. or the over obnoxious cutesy kawaii girl.

You're getting the benefit first though. And then after you've benefited, you're deciding not to pay.

Because the people who like those girls don't want them as streamers, they want them as girlfriends.
People who watch streams are mostly just stupid kids who want loud meme spouting dudes and whore girls.

So the value of women all comes down to what demographic of men want to fuck them.

> top 100 twitch earners are male
>> connect with women
> women
you fucked in the head

>I follow a girl
Please kill yourself.

I streamed RE3 one time on uStream like 10 years ago. I had like 20 viewers, no mic no facecam.

I think I might do that kind of streaming again. Just good old games, no face shit. I don't care about trying to get twitchbux and I already play vidya anyway.

Not exactly, every person has something to offer.
It's just streaming is like Hollywood, it's a very shallow and superficial market where the clients are mostly the dumbest people you can find.
These people are not interested in people who play fine (unless it's eSports) and they are not interested in seeing decent people.
Just, as I said, obnoxious meme spouters and girls who "play" videogames while shaking their ass on the camera.

Streaming is the equivalent of MTV in the current era.
