<Lordbaldur> you won't garner more viewers and expand by giving in to humorless carebears or putting your channel to +i
<DanDinh> honestly, theres different ways to get more viewers
<DanDinh> and theres no 1 way
<DanDinh> hotshot has the trollol stream rage
<DanDinh> you shit talk me?
<DanDinh> i ban you
<DanDinh> i just dont want people trash talking each other in chat
<DanDinh> i dont want to read it
<DanDinh> other people dont want to
<Lordbaldur> so dont read it
<Lordbaldur> ignore it
<Lordbaldur> be hands off
<Lordbaldur> and play
<DanDinh> the thing is
<Lordbaldur> thats all you have to do, people dont wanna have to watch what they say
<DanDinh> the more people that goes in the channel
<DanDinh> the more of that flood you get
<DanDinh> and its hard to ignore
<DanDinh> theres 1 thing about watching what they say
<DanDinh> the more people that goes in the channel
<DanDinh> the more of that flood you get
<DanDinh> and its hard to ignore
<DanDinh> theres 1 thing about watching what they say
<DanDinh> and calling someone a "fat fuck"
<DanDinh> "or ugly ass cunt"
<DanDinh> or "you should kill youre self because you are so ugly"
<Lordbaldur> so someone got called an ugly fat cunt, doesn't affect your stream
<Lordbaldur> that wont turn anyone off to watching you
<Lordbaldur> except the small majority of people who are complete carebears
<Lordbaldur> and the type of person who is oversensitive and humorless is outnumbered by the reasonable, not caring people
<DanDinh> yes it does
<DanDinh> some people wont even go into IRC
<DanDinh> because they have to see those words
<Lordbaldur> ya and alot of people
<DanDinh> having that is alienation in itself
<Lordbaldur> most people who are into high lvl playing of any game
<Lordbaldur> are not oversensitive
<DanDinh> thats not the point
<DanDinh> those are directed at 1 person
<Lordbaldur> so why are you focusing on making your channel appeal to the small minority of the people who cant take a joke
<DanDinh> and no one deserves that
<DanDinh> thats my personal opinion
<Lordbaldur> ya, so let that person say something back and thats it
<Lordbaldur> lots of people deserve that, but even if they don't so what its just words it means nothing
<DanDinh> you gonna get a flame war in chat
<DanDinh> and really, not everyone wants to fight fire with fire
<Lordbaldur> ya, so?
<DanDinh> not everyone is the same
<Lordbaldur> but most people who are into pro gaming are somewhat internet savvy and not complete carebears
<Lordbaldur> so why focus on the small minority who aren't
<DanDinh> i understand that
<Lordbaldur> instead of being like do w/e you want watch me play
<Lordbaldur> talk about whatever
<DanDinh> its not about focusing on the small minority
<Lordbaldur> so you can get more viewers
<DanDinh> its about respect for people in general
<DanDinh> if i want to get more viewers
<DanDinh> consistently
<Lordbaldur> its about protecting 1 person from being "disrespected" on the internet
<DanDinh> i will shit talk
<DanDinh> everyone and their mothers 24/7
<DanDinh> on stream
<Lordbaldur> ya
<DanDinh> tbh
<DanDinh> thats the best way to get viewrs
<Lordbaldur> so why wouldn't that be true for your irc
<Lordbaldur> it is
<DanDinh> thats not how i want to do it
<Lordbaldur> cuz people like edgy shit
<Lordbaldur> well putting the chan on +i would just be suicide for your chan, would you rather commit stream suicide than just ignore whats going on
<Lordbaldur> well you don't have to get involved in the drama
<Lordbaldur> just ignore it
<Lordbaldur> is all you need to do
<Lordbaldur> let it happen and let your chan and stream viewership grow instead of trying to regulate it
<DanDinh> ill just make 2 channels
<DanDinh> EpikGamer 1
<DanDinh> EPikGamer 2
<DanDinh> kids room 2
<DanDinh> adults room 1
<Lordbaldur> probably you'll just weaken both chans
<Lordbaldur> by doing that
<DanDinh> channel 2 only bans spammers
<DanDinh> channel 1 regulated
<Lordbaldur> its confusing, you want to build a community
<Lordbaldur> around your stream
<Lordbaldur> not just have retarded carebear fanbois who keep asking dumb questions
<DanDinh> im trying to build a community of more mature players
<Lordbaldur> and always agree with you
<Lordbaldur> more mature = more retarded though
<DanDinh> who are not constantly trolling shit talking or giving other people a hard time
<DanDinh> I prefer quality over quantity
<Lordbaldur> they have no quality
<Lordbaldur> they're fanbois
<Lordbaldur> with no opinion of their own
<DanDinh> I would rather have 100 people who makes fun and intelligent comments
<DanDinh> than 10000 raging pepople
<DanDinh> who's every other is putting someone down
<Lordbaldur> well you have 290 people who make stupid brown nosing comments
<Lordbaldur> instead of 500 people who are honest
<Lordbaldur> and mature enough to be able to take a joke
<DanDinh> i dont mind people making 500 honest comments
<Lordbaldur> i mean you're gaining viewers just from this
<Lordbaldur> you gained like 500 viewers
<Lordbaldur> ya you don't want to be successful and popular
<Lordbaldur> ya NOBODY should care
<Lordbaldur> and if you care you're retarded
<Lordbaldur> and deserve to get hurt
<Lordbaldur> so why can people treat you like trash?
<Lordbaldur> you don't care right
<Lordbaldur> nobody should care its silly
<Lordbaldur> to care
<Lordbaldur> and you're doing these idiots a disservice
<Lordbaldur> by sheltering them
<Lordbaldur> well what do you care if they hurt someone else
<Lordbaldur> all you should want to do
<Lordbaldur> is make your stream as successful as possible
<Lordbaldur> and I promise you the way to do that is to be laidback and chill and let people do what they do
<Lordbaldur> cuz you're catering to a minority of idiots who dont get the joke instead of to the broad masses who can make you $$$$$
<Lordbaldur> well you dont have to be a dick
<Lordbaldur> you can be nice to anyone
<Lordbaldur> just let people speak freely
<Lordbaldur> is all
<Lordbaldur> you dont have to protect everyone in your chan
<Lordbaldur> you dont have to do it
<Lordbaldur> be yourself, let other people be themselves
<Lordbaldur> live and let live
<Lordbaldur> is all I'm saying
<Lordbaldur> well you are not letting people be honest
<Lordbaldur> cuz you banned a guy for being honest
<Lordbaldur> if you let people be truly honest
<Lordbaldur> people will be into it
<Lordbaldur> don't censor it 1 way or the other, don't create drama
<Lordbaldur> don't stop it
<Lordbaldur> just let people talk
<Lordbaldur> thats honest, some people are dicks
<Lordbaldur> and like to hurt others
<Lordbaldur> if you're weak
<Lordbaldur> ya, its the way of the world
<Lordbaldur> you dont need to do anything
<Lordbaldur> why would you need to protect some person you dont know from getting their feelings hurt
<Lordbaldur> just let them handle it, and if they feel they cant take it anymore they can always just ignore them
<Lordbaldur> irc has that function
<Lordbaldur> you don't need to remove someone cuz they make 1 person mad out of 500
<Lordbaldur> its better for that 1 person to just stop being a complete retard and ignore the guy if they cant handle it
<Lordbaldur> no, its just a few people being vocal
<Lordbaldur> its like 2-3 people whining
<Lordbaldur> everyone else DOESN'T CARE
<Lordbaldur> so put it to a vote instead of just listening to the 1 retard crying
<Lordbaldur> ya but you're the one who chooses to deal with it
<Lordbaldur> the way to not deal with it would be to just ignore it
<Lordbaldur> and let events run their course
