I have nothing to do with this
By Rhaegar Jergaryen Go To PostI have nothing to do with thisyou are so shameless
By Professor Beef Go To PostI'm surprised DY never jumped on the streaming train sooner tbhyou know i was heading in that direction too tbh. twitch and stuff just hadn't really become as much of a thing back then.
i just came out here and it took me like 2 years to get a solid internet connection that could do anything besides download porn.
if i ever get a gig like kibner, i guarantee i'll look into it again.
By Rhaegar Jergaryen Go To PostWho really wants to see his face while playing video games?i don't even need to full time it (u a hater tho, besides the point). i'd happily take a side role and do the heavy lifting while pushing another personality
imagine some girlnextdoor fitbit playing league of legends daily while i stroll through every other stream to flip pancakes and blow in her ear while rocking a sailor man tank top?
the absolute fury would have my rent paid ezpz
Showing your face is overrated anyways. Depending on the genre of the game you could be a faceless voice and still rake in the dough.
Having a girl in on it would at least triple your profit though.

Been looking into streaming 2k all day today. I hooked up my Elgato HD60 and have been messing with overlays and their Sound Capture software. I don't have a webcam either, but looking at the 2k18 twitch streams, there's only maybe 1 or 2 that look high quality anyway. 2k would really be the only game I'd do it in. Right now I'm maintaining top 25 status on the leaderboard and I figured that combined with some outlandish stream title could get some views.

If your'e a former pro going streamer (ala Admiralbulldog) people have seen you at competitions anyway. And you're male, so they dont' really care.
If you're female and Cute? ....
What a weird time to be alive. Taking advantage of those poor basement dwellers who only dream of women playing video games. Like giving the thirsty a glass of sea water.
By Phoenix RISING Go To PostSo then I should get my wife to stream for ez income?Sorta. You have to stream on a consistent schedule so people can be sure to tune in and donate regularly. And also have to be ok with foul words being thrown her way every second in chat and donation/subscription messages.
If you want to be successful (i.e. make more money than just chump change), you need to treat it like a job.

I dont think your ready for them comments that'll come the way of your wife daily. well I wouldnt be, even it was for extra doe.
one of the following might happen, people will be like touch yourself you whore and she'll eventually get tired of being called whore or she might start and we may end up fucking and get our channel shut down.
May well be losing my job (or having my hours cut to the point that I may as well quit) in a few hours
Store manager is holding a meeting with us at the end of our shift, cleaning staff had their hours cut last week, there've been rumours of nightshift being disbanded, and there's been a tonne of turmoil in the way the company as a whole, and our store specifically is run
Thank fuck I've been saving a good chunk of my wages over the last 9 years, don't think I'm up to the task of needing the next paycheck asap every month

Depends on the scale you want to take it. A lot of "cute girl" streamers have very irregular streams. But they're only doing it for cash injections, not as a permanent job.

Anyone else besides Smokey live in Texas? Thinking about moving there cuz NY is ridiculously expensive
Or I guess this applies to anyone that has been to Texas. Are groceries and shit cheaper or is it just housing that's more affordable? What else should I expect?
Saw some 2bd, 2ba apartments with personal washer and dryer for $1100. You can't even get a 1bd apt for that here in NY, you trying to get w/d included and you're paying like 2k easily. Shit is nuts

Housing and cost of living is probably the only reason i haven't left texas tbh. That and no state income tax
Each of the 4 major cities have their own style, and Texas is huge. Food is great, and fatty. The major cities and surrounding areas are blue. Shit Houston has a black mayor now and before him, we had a mayor who was a lesbian. It's when you get out in them boonies you need to watch ya self.

By RobNBanks Go To PostAnyone else besides Smokey live in Texas? Thinking about moving there cuz NY is ridiculously expensiveI've visited Dallas and San Antonio. If you like the big city kind of life, don't move to SA. It's got more of a small town feeling about it (which I like more).

That's good to know Kib. San Antonio is the place me and my girl were considering the most, we both don't really care for the big city feeling
Was also considering Houston but after Harvey my girl wants none of that. She now feels SA is too close for comfort -_-

I've been waiting for my dad to die since 2009. I've had a lot of time to prepare but shit is going to suck.
i'm good. just tired.
this friend was a guy that.... like, when i heard i he died i wasn't extremely jolted or anything because the first thing to come to mind was that he'd been done with this planet for the past 20 years. its like when you here of a dalai lama passing.

Tbis is me. My father will be rough, but my mother is the family rock. I'm going to be a wreck.
This whole topic is making me sad brehs.
mom dying when i was 16 fucked me alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the way up
My parent's were older when they had me. So my whole life I have seen my family die. Twelve kids in my dad's generation and now there's only three of them left. My sister's are around 15 years older than I am so the chance of them dying before me is higher. Especially with the two that were/are drug users and obese. My real sister (the other three are biologically my cousins but my parents adopted them) was born with only one kidney and other birth defects. She wasn't supposed to live this long and she's always sick.
Shit sucks
Shit sucks
My dad and I got cool again recently and because of all the bullshit I'm probably gonna cry harder when he dies than anyone
No one gets him but me

My mom will hurt the most though.
I'll never forget my friend's girl dying. She reached out to me since we were kinda cool when we were younger. She basically only reached out to me because I'm the only one in my group of friends who even bothers to shoot straight with people, and let me know that this friend was cheating on her while she was terminal. I've still got the Facebook messages. It was easy enough for me to believe because she was way too good for him (both in looks and personality) and it was clear since the moment I met him that he lucked his way through life.
As for my dad passing about a decade ago? I was mute for a week straight.

Seriously, let me know if anyone needs someone to talk to when going through a close death. My dad passed when I was in seventh grade and it was rough. My mom went took me to therapy for it, even though I didn't ask for it. It helped a lot. His death and everything that followed it changed how I look at life.
