Renaming a thread PMing a poster without warning/banning them adding a mod note to a thread There is also discussing stuff with banling/mod/admin through IRC/teamspeak (a more rts approach (in "real time" as sc, as opposed to "turn by turn" like in passionstoned)) + Show Spoiler +see?

well as they say, irc is just multiplayer notepad

Considering the quality of most irc discussions I think that is an insult to notepad.

Twitch chats beyond a certain number of viewers and traffic, are one of the most genuinely curious and baffling of all human culture to me. It's just odd
I do apologise for my nonsensical Zenex bump and mentioning it again, but where are half the images? I want to see how Extreme Extreme is for example

well when you are watching a sport in a large stadium, you scream and shout during the hype plays, like when federer plays one of his between the legs shots. who are you screaming/shouting at? nobody and everybody. and that's your twitch chat spam.
of course during the match you'll likely turn to the friend sitting next to you and actually say/discuss something constructive. well that's not twitch chat spam, that's you on teamspeak talking in your channel of maybe 5 people.
so i guess my point is, if you think partaking in twitch chat spam is something only retarded immature people do, then are you the type of person who sits silent during a sports match? would you not join in a mexican wave that's going around the stadium?

Yup. But then you won't randomly shout in the street or in your office like you did when Federer did an awesome move.

There is a visceral and primal throwback with those kind of public spectacles to a time where men roared at sabre-toothed tigers and mammoths and the like to ward them off the womenfolk.

Twitch chat just suffers from information overload once the chat activity hits a certain rate. It's genuinely too much to handle, plus people spam nonsense which buries interesting chat in a way that wouldn't happen in any face-to-face public gathering.
Either you have to have relatively few active chatters, or on bigger ones sub-only modes tend to improve the chat massively, iirc Basetrade's is like that.

Can someone clarify for me why everyone here dislikes twitch chat? To me it's just like any high-population chat room except with unique emoticons...
Say for a moment twitch never existed, no twitch faces, no twitch memes, no twitch chat at all.
Now imagine an IRC channel with 1000 users all watching the same video/livestream at the same time. If even 300 of those people are active at any given time, the chat will be so fast it's hardly readable. Do you all expect a totally different environment in a highly populated chatroom? Are you expecting, when you join that channel, to have a deep conversation with the chat room? Do you not think that a funny comment or moment will be repeated by multiple people and then referenced in subsequent chats? You don't think that instead of <insert twitch face here> people would spam XD or some other emoticon?
ASCII spam has been around for ages, chat room trolls have been around for ages, 12 year olds have been using chat rooms for ages. What makes twitch so special?
EDIT sorry this is probably too far off topic now, I can move this to blogs or something if need be

in all seriousness though, the bigger twitch chats are like a crowded room, its just incomprehensible yelling and screaming, only difference from irc is that its more "there" as its provided by twitch and you're not going to another place just to talk about someones stream.

You know, watching the SJW furor that's gripping the internet is kind of funny. If TL mods hadn't clamped down on rape terminology and such a long time ago, I'm sure we'd be getting shit for doing it now. TL mods are the original internet SJWs?
