Oh man, these graphics card prices are beyond stupid. I'm really going to have to wait until this crypto market crashes and lives are ruined before I can upgrade my wife's PC.

Edit: Apparently Blizzard is taking action against shitty Overwatch players if they find any evidence of them being shitty. Including youtube and Twitch. So people are getting warnings/bans and being told it was because of their stream.

I really want to know what the process is and the stories of folks coming into work demanding the ban hammer, their heart overflowing with the purpose of justice.

But banning public displays of shitty behavior is a good way to combat shitty behavior.

I would argue that it's a good way to cut down on public displays of behavior. That may actually lead to cutting down on it overall (who knows how many toxic people are imitating streamers), but it's not a direct 1:1 link imo.

It would mitigate any crappy behavior that caused by people emulating people being shitty on streams. Streamers are not “role models” in the traditional sense, but they are totally role models.

I wonder how many of them know they're role models.

And how many of them think of themselves in that capacity.

Yeah if nothing else streamers definitely set the tone for what's considered the culture of the game.

It's also interesting in a sense that if you get reported/suspended for toxicity, but see a streamer doing the exact same thing your take away is probably less that your toxicity is an outlier and unacceptable and more that your problem is you got caught.

Yeah, i remember pretty much every pub used to have someone imitating rtz back when he streamed all the time and he wasn't exactly the best role model in regards to toxicity, regardless of his PMA statement lol

It is a problem for a lot of games and the internet as well. The narrative that the internet and real life are not the same has sort of been proven wrong. At this point I'm pretty suspect of anyone who says "Just let the internet be the internet" because I have to wonder why they are invested in preserving that space.

I did something similar this week, dropped a 60 second load time to .1 second by dropping an index

also do you just wake up and vomit awesomeness or does it just kinda dribble out like the end of your morning pee
