Now --- imagine if he tweeted this. "I'm going to be drinking and playing games with fans!!! Stream will start at "x time" , my goal is to hit 15k viewers! Let everyone know." He just reeks of ungratefulness, why doesn't he go out of his way to do anything for his fans? Just streaming occasionally doesn't cut it. | ||

It doesn't take us ANYTHING to tune in, and if enough tune in to watch, he might reward us for that. Stop being so entitled, and be happy he actually streams his games for you. You are the one being ungrateful in my opinion Edit: Just realized you said HE reeks of ungratefulness, hahahah | ||

Just streaming occasionally doesn't cut it. so youd prefer he just stop streaming? what about all the commentary and replay analysis hes done on his stream? the whole "ill give you guys something if we hit X viewers" is a pretty old thing, i think the first time IdrA did it was for SoTG a long time ago so if your only jsut realising he does it your not a very big fan he doesnt have to stream and doesnt have to do any commentary he could just play tournaments thats all thats expected of him everything he does above playing in tournaments (like inside the game and streaming) is bonus content for his fans | ||

@Aocowns -Open up your eyes, you said it yourself ; "he only streams because he is obligated to do so." This is true, that means if it was up to him he wouldn't stream at all. Instead of ad hominem attacks and narrowing in on one aspect of my post, why don't you actually consider what I wrote and give it some thought. @Forikorder - The way you wrote your post, you make it sound like IdrA gains nothing from streaming. (Ad Revenue?) Was just inquiring about how people feel. | ||

He is forced to stream actually. Seems I know a bit more about the guy you are jumping in to defend. This is not a question about the streamers/audience relation, it's a question about how he just demands stuff from his fans. Everyone streams these days, also a lot of amazing Zergs, nobody demands anything from their fans. | ||

Also, how does streaming occasionally not cut it? He's already going out of his way to stream. He could just play his games and not show any of them. | ||

You are bitching and calling him ungrateful because he doesn't interact with his fans while he's streaming? And you think he should play with his fans, commentate and interact because...? He's an ungrateful bastard if he isn't? Really, you just sound like a whiny bitch because he likes money, and you don't get anything out of it( Except you know, great macro zerg play, the occasional BM and interesting chats, and of course his dashingly sexy webcam) User was warned for this post | ||

He doesn't demand from his viewers, he says he'll do X if he gets to X point. That doesn't sound like a demand C. That in no way proves that he is or isn't forced to stream | ||

He's a professional starcraft player, not a court jester. He gives us the opportunity to be entertained by his practice from watching his stream. If it bores you, go watch someone less legitimate play and go out of their way to entertain you. There are plenty of people who do that. | ||
