The IRC suggestion is a good idea I'm surprised it hasn't been suggested before.

Don't go kona!!!

Where will they post it? It seems like turning the chat off will solve problems.

As for putting information above stream, without chat there will be no need for it as you can post that info in chat screen.

Just turn off chat. I personally left konadora stream when there was extra things showing on stream (showing who is playing etc aka covering upper screen and my attention is too much there because of contrast).


The reason he puts the little blurb thing at the top is so people aren't confused about who's playing if they're either a) new to starcraft or b) tuning in late

and it doesn't cover up the top he puts it right above the stream.


Its contrast. White up and black starcraft screen makes me look both at same time.

If I don't know who is playing I do

A) Check races they are playing and then compare to tl.net thread

B) check players teams (usually shown next to players name) and figure out who is who

C) If its proleague game, obviously from game score.

D) not being lazy and doing your own research

E) from TL.net thread where usually some one types players starting positions

F) sometimes observers ally left side booth if its mirror game (around 75% time) so I can figure out who is playing mirror races)

If these won't help I just enjoy watching without knowing who is playing.


Yes but there are a lot of people who have just recently started watching SC and don't think to do that so having that tiny blurb at the top is nice.

I totally understand you, if you decide to stop streaming, I get easily annoyed by stupid people as well, but believe me, you have the support of the hole community for what you are doing - streaming, translations etc.
Dont stop, really

Just turn off chat immediately when you start up the stream. All problems solved.

I like your streams and comments during games but man, you have to be realistic about this issue... There's no way in hell that a stream with 500 users won't have assholes, spammers and other trash. I don't know why are you giving them points by acknowledging their influence on you, stopping streaming and then writing a blog about it. I'm 100% sure that majority of people, including me, appreciate your streams and the time and effort you put in, so why not look at the bright side instead of focusing on few fucktards.

There were retards on the mogulus chats pretty much from day one (way before you started streaming), there's nothing you can do about it. Plus with a lot of people in the chat it tends to hog a lot of resources, so the best way is really to deactivate the chat and chat elsewhere (TL IRC, like others pointed out). Personally I don't like the Chinese streams either, but I keep it to myself (not to mention having a Chinese stream is always better than having no stream at all) and don't pollute the chat or any threads with it. Ungrateful fucks are common on the internet (and life in general), it's just the way it is

The saddest part is that it only takes one or two idiots to spoil a stream that has an average of 100+ viewers.

I'm not defending them, but sometimes when let's say your stream gets dc'ed and everyone goes like "F*** You Kona..", don't take it personally. It's just that many people are really into the game and their reaction is well, very spontaneous. It's the same with many other sports. A split second goal can make even the most well-mannered and decent man into a swearing machine.

I have used your stream many times and well, if that's your decision then, I'll respect your decision. Thanks for the good views. Much appreciated.

I posted this on NeverGG blog some time ago, so here it is for Konadora blog too.


"Well pretty much standard way to get e-sports famous.

1. Massively doing things (let it be uploading vods, photos, interviews, etc)

2. You reach your peak.

3. You don't see enough respect towards you (lack of comments, traffic, popularity etc)

4. now that you have basic fanbase you can slow down things and try to get more quality towards it

5. Some point you wonder is this really necessary to do, should I just quit/retire.

6. fading out of scene

I personally have experienced same situation and going phase 6."

LOL it's a mistranslation. He's talking about the general arc of being eSports famous.

You must be feeling so hurt to have made this blog

Don't quit - you've been doing so well, I might not check the stream often due to my crappy internet here in India but I always like the fact that no matter what you're streaming or doing translations from your own free time. Maybe you need to take a break from this and probably only do select stuff but don't underestimate your contributions to the community.

Hope you think of these things with a calm mind.

what some people are trying to say, albiet ungainly, is that the nature of sharing things on the internet will require some thick skin.

while nochat + TL irc is the logical solution,

on a higher level, doing anything on the internet will never be always peaches and cream, and you should expect anything. It's unfortunate that your streaming service, which brought a lot of joy and a sense of community to many people, will be stopped because you let bad comments and bad incidents get to you.

words are just words, and if this great thing that you're doing goes down because you couldn't get over the fact that some anonymous douche who doesn't even know you is calling you a few words, that would be very sad.

All the things you started for this site never were done with feedback as the goal, whether positive or negative. I've been in your shoes, and I know; you don't do it for the props. You do it to share. So why let the negative comments get to you?

Toughen up.
returns upon momentous occasions.

OK, stop streaming. If you can't handle it and you're not willing to turn off chat, stop.

Yeah lol cause if I turn off chat people still go "FUCK YOU WHY OFF CHAT?!?!?!?!??"

And if I don't, people go "FUCK YOU WHY DON'T OFF CHAT ??!?!?!?!!?"

whatever man

How can people complain about not having a chat in an f'ing video stream??
Just turn it off I'd say, there's tl's board, irc, msn and related, even...
People (read: trolls) will get used to it.

Sorry that you feel troubled about this.

(oh, and don't you love the irony that people are now saying WTF! NO MORE STEAMING!!! F YOU KONA!)

Do whatever the fuck you want to do, Kona-fucking-dora!!

Who gives a fuck...you're doing a service to the community streaming games and all that shit.

But...I don't really watch SC live anymore, so it doesn't affect me a whole lot. I've used your stream like once. The regular dudes'll probably have a lot more to say about this in the OTHER direction...ahahaha.

I enjoyed using your stream to watch live, and appreciate your contribution. Whether you decide to quit streaming or not, thank you for doing this for all of us. (I always had problems watching live until your stream came along)

Despite being banned from your channel, I still watched it, and really appreciate the effort that you put into it. Also, the chat on livestream is painful anyways so it really isn't much of a loss. Thank you konadora!

Others can still post onto the threads in TL as per normal if they stream into OGN's VLC or Daum Sports, blah blah.. They will jsut type what they want on the thread instead in your stream..

But i think others should be grateful of what kona did though, and if those who think his stream is laggy, prove to the rest and stream it to others..
