It is : http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/21duf4/can_someone_explain_s_a_d_b_o_y_s/ On February 19 2015 03:41 ahswtini wrote: cuz TL resident saltminer got mad at something that I don't even think is a twitch meme. But apparently any esports related meme is a twitch meme Actually "TL resident saltminer" didn't say it was a twitch meme. The conversation derivated later on to Twitch, because let's be honest most e-sports related memes (or at least the dumbest ones) find some heavy amplification in Twitch chat. | ||

It has to do with this 'music' video that he would play on stream Since then everything has always been B O Y S and such. | ||

bottom line, they suck, because they are humorless outside of twitch chat and anyone that uses them outside twitch chat is a fucking moron. | ||

If you hang out in the same chats for long enough, you'll often make deep friendships. Make sure to take advantage of the time you have with any friends you do make in twitch chat. Treat every stream as if it were the last stream you'll ever see them in. Because you never know when it might be. Recently, a friend of mine who I met in a twitch chat and had been watching streams with for 3 years suddenly went MIA with no explanation whatsoever. We don't have any information about where she may be, which makes it worse. If a friend you know in a twitch chat (or heck, someone you know on TL or any forum even) gets killed in a car crash or something, you'll never know about it. They probably won't have told any of their family members about their forum/twitch accounts, so nobody will bother to inform all their online friends. And even if their will-executor did know about any online friends, many people are mistrusting of people on the internet. So everyone, right now, go send a nice, heartfelt PM to a good friend you met on TL, or twitch, or any forum. It could be the last time you ever talk to them. | ||

Try going into a twitch chat sometime and ask everyone how work was, or some other normal, mundane adult question. You'll be surprised at the maturity of the answers you get.

That's true enough for small chats, where there are a few hundred users. I remember hanging out in Crank's stream chat way back, before TB sent him to MLG and it was great. Above that number of users however, it quickly deteriorates. If it isn't a personal stream it gets worse even faster. | ||
