Stop bitching about the music someone plays when they stream. It's their stream and it's their taste, they can listen to whatever the fuck they want to. Besides, are they forcing you to listen to the music? It's not like most of the streamers talk into their microphone while streaming. Just mute the sound and play your own music.

The complaining makes sense when someone analyzes replays while playing some avant-garde free jazz, but that rarely happens.

Basically, stop crying about streamers that don't have the same taste in music as you. I'd expect more from Starcraft players, fuck.

You want others to ignore the music while you can't ignore their complaining? You'd probably enjoy the stream more if you ignored it.

I mean, I agree people should stop complaining, but not because I have a problem with them disliking the music that a streamer I like plays, because if they stopped complaining and got rid of what they didn't like from their senses themselves, or in general just didn't complain, they could probably enjoy it more.

Except "Starcraft Players" are now people that play starcraft 2. Maturity is a thing of the past.

But, but, what if it's not the same as what I listen to? *sniffle* *sniffle*

Honestly though, I haven't had a problem with anyone's music yet, not even Kawaiirice's Kpop. In fact, I've actually discovered a bunch of new music to listen to, like Stelar Parov, from Drewbie's stream. The only thing I find annoying is when people fill up the chat with complaints, though normally the mods are good at generously warning and banning people who feel they need to contribute negativity to the stream. :p

Edit: Shit just got real.

maybe u should take ur own advice?

and stop bitching about ppl crying about the music someone plays when they stream. it's their opinion ~~stream~~ and it's their ~~taste~~ right, they can ~~listen~~ complain about whatever the fuck they want to. besides, are they forcing you to listen to the ~~music~~ crying? it's not like most of the ~~streamers~~ complainers talk ~~into their microphone while streaming~~ to u. just ~~mute the sound and play your own music~~ ignore them.

basically, stop crying about ppl crying about streamers that don't have the same taste in music as you. i'd expect more from Starcraft players, fuck.

The thing is that when I'm watching a stream and look at the chat, it's 60% music, 30% trolling, and 10% actual discussion and theorycraft. I guess it's too much to ask for people to talk about the actual game in this age of imageboards filled with socially inept morons who think spouting memes is funny. It's getting so ridiculous that when I'm talking about Starcraft strategy and such that people are starting to call me a troll because I'm not discussing whatever music is being played.

Yes it is too much to ask for. If you want to talk strategy find some people to do it with on a regular basis. You calling people inept morons isn't going to make them talk about strategy lol

Yeah, that's life, it sucks, it gets annoying but there are ways around it, one of them is just not acknowledging any post that isn't serious about discussing strategy or theorycraft. Usually if I'm watching something Starcraft related and chatting at the same time, I'll ignore anything that just says "LOL IMBA" (unless it's a buddy that I know is joking around) and try to respond to the people that I can actually enjoy talking to. Hell, sometimes you can get people to join in if you just don't acknowledge the BS. I remember huge discussions on the old Bnet in Brood War that would last hours just because I would talk to one person to start with and other people just can feel compelled to join in.

Not that it's guaranteed, sadly. (and sorry if this thread turns into a whinefest about your whine fest about whiners

)

No lie though, creating your own private channels in a stream would be nice.

Nah, this thread is intended to be a whinefest. I rage really hard when people don't see the easy solution to an ultra common complaint and I guess it's reasonable for people to rage just as hard at me.

This thread is useless and serves no purpose and no useful discussion will come from it. Do everyone a favour and stop making crap like this.

I'm not sure how to respond to this thread.

Sure, people complain about stream music. I've seen it too. Yes, it eclipses real analysis in the stream chat.

... how does one continue such a discussion? There's no real way to fix that, it's part of stream chat.

Pro Tip: Mute button and listen to your own music.
If you want sound effects, just make gun sound noises and photon cannon sounds with your mouth.
Problem solved.

It's a blog, not a discussion thread.

If Travis is allowed to make a thread about Zerg QQers then I am too.
