I've seen a few intelligent comments kindly suggesting that she should change the opening post, but she takes it for "hating" and decides to trash talk on her own thread. That's a shame and a bad start, since I'm sure this is not what she initially wanted. Perhaps if she removed the "female, boobs = watch my stream" from the equation and focused on real qualities, then one could become more accepting and open minded. Not to mention that constructive criticism is not always "hating" or "haters" and should be greeted with a friendly face, not trash talk on her own thread.
Oh, and I forgot to mention: as you can obviously see, Tara Babcock never really had the same problem. She's a funny girl, she's friendly, yeah, she's in the porn industry but that's irrelevant. She's written a nice, neat and mannered description about herself and why she's streaming. That's how you do it right, in my opinion.
omg dont try to sound intelligent she can name the topic like she wants. if you dont have something nice t say about it, then just dont post. pls spare us your comments otherwise. and tara babcock isnt in the porn industry. you clearly dont even know what you are talking about.
What is it with you girls and taking offense in constructive criticism? I was simply explaining to her why people find her thread ridiculous and then explained to her how she could make it better. Calm down, for heaven's sake, we're here to help, not to cause drama.
In regards to Tara Babcock, alright, maybe "porn" is not the correct word, let's call it the "nude" industry then, happy?
Oh, and by the way, I noticed that you didn't read any of the comments above, perhaps you should do that before you reply, por favor. :Kappa:
I never thought I'd defend the likes of Tara Babcock.. But nude industry is not even true, since she dosen't pose nude.

I would post links, but TL would just temp ban me.
If you aint gonna bitch at big businness for selling sex and humor as a pair...then why bitch at someone just trying to pull a few more viewers than she otherwise would have... To compare her to porn stars is like comparing peewee flag football players to NFL players....It just doesn't work.

My name is Michelle "MissCupCake" Knudsen, and I am a danish girl gamer playing starcraft II at high platinum level. I am playing zerg for the girl division of team GamersLeague.no (GL) and I hope to reach diamond soon!
I will be streaming ladder mainly in weekends or weekday evenings (european time). Might also stream some tournaments like playhem or girl tournaments. Tune in and learn a thing or two, and see that girls can play starcraft aswell!
Games i also play: Diablo 3. HoN (Ofc i can own you in LoL 2 ez mode of HoN ), WoW (loong time ago.. but i still have wow beta Panda stuff)
- Plat - Zerg - Implying she can teach me stuff when she is 2 leagues lower than me - Extreme focus on the "female gamer" part - Chat full of horny 14 year old nerds - Plays lol and hon + Boobs
I saw scarlett at NASL, I don't need a plat zerg to show me that girls can play.
>says scarlett shows how girls can play >implying that scarlett is a girl > mfw = O_____________O
User was temp banned for this post.
I don't know if you got temp'd for implying scarlett isn't a girl or because you think you are on 4chan. Made me laugh anyway.

Because she pulls viewers she shouldn't have you answered it yourself? I'm raging on behalf of friends who exhibit really solid play and are trying to breakthrough to the real high echelons of this game, and can't pull 10 viewers for their streams. It's pretty damn hard to break through to the pro level and have a breakout tournament, the alternative route; being spotted from streaming seems not viable anymore due to all these gimmick streams just annoys me, apologies if that makes me a prick.
The very reaction that girls get on this website just perpetuates the image that we are sex-starved nerds who lose our collective shit whenever an attractive girl is about. Look at the pathetic comments Lauren Elise hosting NASL elicited for a start, my girlfriend used to make fun of me for playing Starcraft until she got a bit more into it and I showed her the best this community has to offer, but if she was reading the worst of forum posts about women I'd have to start over!
1. The 'haters' have at large been very civil and just pointed out their opinions, and have had a bit of of a dialogue with the OP. 2. The word hater should be fucking banned, it's retarded and almost always used to refer to constructive criticism/debate. 3. The OP is getting bumped and exposure anyway for her stream, so debate is helping her right?
Sorry dude but isnt that up to the viewers to decide? Like, she wants viewers, and her numbers prove that there is an audience. I see nothing wrong with allowing her to do what she does as it's not lewd or demeaning. Don't blame the idiots commenting on Lauren on this. Blame stupidity. If someone wants to watch a stream because they see plat level play and hey, it's with a good looking girl, then by all means, let her cater to that. Anything that gets anyone viewers without harming others is fine, and it's obvious that she does nothing to hurt anyone. Blame the viewers and not her.
Since you werent streaming atm, I took the time to look at the latest video in your archives. I'm not sure if it's your microphone or if it's you screaming. But it was very annoying after a while listening to you screaming. I'm not trying to be rude.. it's just.. listen to it yourself and you'll see my point. Might want to lower your microphone or get a new one if that's the case.
Hello Fredell.. I wish i were pro enough to watch my own stream.. but i cant.. but thank you for the tips ! no one told me. maybe it is ur headset ? or maybe the stream.. or maybe my mic.. i will try to fix the problem till next Friday.. Since i just play For fun My stream aint about serious game play.. i might observe some grandmaster play now and then.. but.. no one forces anyone to click on my stream.. :p and i do not think another 'serious' stream would have that much succes.. i think we got alot of good streams going already. and Scarletts owning with her zerg also playing on a serious Level.. But if you wanna see some Fail Canon Rushes and 6 pools.. and Wrong built. . with webcam this is most likely the place for you.. and specially the Proxy Hatchery.. Dont forget the Proxy Hatchery.. Oh Yeah Ofc. Boobs.
Wishes Everyone a lovely and Pleasant Day Wif or wifout wins !
For the "next stream" times in the OP, you can use [date][/date] tags to show a time that is automatically converted to the viewers' local time. The format is fairly flexible; for example, for your next stream's start time, you can use any of these:

Well, that also applies to players like Nony for example. There are better players than he is. He gets a lot of people tuning in because he's on Liquid. That's how the world works. You can see many korean pros with only a fraction of viewers some weaker players (compared to them) get. I bet you aren't complaining in those threads about how unfair the system is and that they should stream anonymously.
The girlbashing has got to stop. Regardless of whether you like this girl and/or her stream or not, this community (and with that e-sports as a whole) is not growing by people being cruel or overly critical. I like to believe that this community is openminded and mature enough to handle individuals whose whole world doesn't revolve around starcraft as well as those who do. What is so far displayed in this thread certainly isn't a bright example of that. Either way as long as she streams starcraft and doesn't breach any of the rules stated in the rules section there is absolutely no reason why she should no be able to advertise on here like everybody else. Diversity is good for e-sports so please for the sake of the community as a whole leave the less friendly attitude at the door, thanks
