It's okay to be selfish, you're not hurting any body so why would it be immoral to do something you enjoy? Makes no sense to me. Other than that, awesome stream and awesome tips and awesome videos. | ||

I know my macro was incredibly terrible, but I effectively had the game by that time.  Thanks! Edit: FYI it's the "fast banshee" from episode 2 of Rut Roh. | ||

I have to believe it's a bit of both, but It's a tricky situation. :-P anyway thank you! Who cares why you're doing it? If you're helping people it doesn't matter if you're doing it for recognition or just because you like to because it's a win:win situation for everyone involved and you should profit from your efforts in whatever way possible because they are solid, great, efforts. | ||

no the controversy was over the fact that am I doing these because I like to or am I doing it to get recognition(Which I have no clue, I didn't go into it looking for recognition but me now realizing that I have been recognized brings it to question), and that makes you think: is it now being fueled by trying to get more or do i still have that same desire to help others? I have to believe it's a bit of both, but It's a tricky situation. :-P [I didn't hear the spiel.] There's nothing wrong with obtaining recognition for furthering the understanding of a community and enjoying the compliments that come with helping others; your moral ambiguity stems from how you choose to look at it. If you want to feel guilty, then you'll frame arguments in that light. One method you can use is to just remember the motivations that caused you to make the original episode. If you can search your original thoughts and you don't remember being driven by e-fame then you shouldn't feel guilty; you're not making people suffer from the production of these casts, so any retrospective feelings about the resulting notoriety or plaudits [depending on how you choose to look at it] are irrelevant. Are you enjoying what you're doing? Then keep doing it. NB. A lot of people might propose what I like to term a 'theory-that-fits'. Only you really know why you got into this into the first place. If you chose a reason that was honourable enough and something that you're comfortable with then you can safely ignore [respectfully, of course] side comments. If you think about it, you could argue in circles all day long about what it's now fueled by. You weren't aware of it before, and since no-one but you knows your original motivations then you can't really 'prove' why you got into this or how you currently feel about it. So it doesn't matter, and I wouldn't bother even contemplating it. | ||
