Alright, this shit is getting out of hand now

If you retards are willing to spend money to spam chat while watching someone play vidya, you'll no doubt pay for this too.

TriHard 7

retards keep buying it so twitch keeps selling.

twitch profit is in the billions now.

Jesus.

>pay real money to get something temporary

>twitch lootboxes

This is just too damn stupid not to laugh at.

>what is food
>what is going to a club

Trihard 7 cx

That's the majority of things you buy.

food is essential you fucking retard

>Spending money on twitch at all

There's your problem.

You can't take it with you.

prove it

>need food to survive
>clubs come with a chance for (real life) sex

>I will ignore half his words so I can "win"

That's capitalism for you

Las Vegas putting Lootboxes machines on their Casinos when?

I bet this would be a hit on Macao

But it's also temporary. If we are arguing about essentials then we're wasting money on vidya.

Good thread, OP. We need to show the board about twitches immoral gambling and get Twitch labelled as a gambling service now

Sex is temporary.
Unless it goes wrong.

*blocks your essential food ingestion*

*grows tits*

>twitch has lootboxes now
what a fucking time to be a alive

But I don't want to become transexual.

scratch-off ticket games are essentially loot boxes.

Twitch is giving in-game loot for some games so people are setting up services to have open and "active" 64+ 160p streams simultaneously. Eating up gigabytes of ram and bandwidth and consuming shitload of processing power on decodes.
I wonder if mining crypto and buying in-game plat would actually be more efficient.

You'll never touch a real girl, your best bet is growing your own tits.

But I can just eat cheeseburgers instead and not get the soy-brain.

>implying i leave my room for anything other than food

>temp emotes

I am legitamately curious how ridiculeous things will get.

obesetits and trannytits are very different.

But saggy tits are my fetish user

When did that whole "soy" shit fad started?

The inventor is a legit insane silicon valley guy with no education in nutrition. I don't want to ingest anything made that guy. Also food tastes good.

Looks like it's time to abandon video games forever. It's irredeemable.

Commies need to go.

Still they are different. Saggy woman tits still mostly come out from the front of the chest, but fat man tits run around the upper chest and form a doughnut shaped ring around the body.

is that even true? any sources on that?

No. Drinking soy doesn't make you a tranny just like how jacking off together with your bro doesn't make you gay.

Bro.

Paying for temporary emotes in a chat that's unreadable. This is the beginning of the end

But this has nothing to do with video games.

You're a fool if you think twitch doesn't impact the industry.

What the fuck I love soy now

Isn't that made of people?

Yes, soy protein has substances that mimic estrogens.
Broccoli actually has substances that suppress estrogens though. So you could just always eat that if you intend to consume soy protein.

Soybean oils do not have these substances if I remember right.

But this is about buying virtual currency to directly support the streamer. The only impact twitch has is advertising I guess. Why don't you elaborate then faggot?

Now it is.

b-but is not required.

Gambling is now a part of merely watching video games in addition to being part of video games themselves.

>retards actually pay to watch other people play video games

like some kind of videogame cuckolding

oh boy I love living in an artificial scarcity society, invent cars that breakdown on purpose invent washing machines and ovens that deliberately have a short life span, and even fucking emotes in in a chat client are now temporary. Just kill me now

Oh no, how could they be allowed to sell this!?

>insane
Instead of washing his clothes he buys new ones because that wastes less water.
His "kitchen" is empty because he is afraid of sharp objects and heating elements. It's more peaceful that way.
During a "waste less than 4 liters of water a day" he destroyed his gut flora on purpose for whatever crazy reason.
Also he created Soylent via trial and error. He fucked up his body several times during testing and possibly came close to death.

I wouldn't trust anything he does.

I hope you're just pretending to be retarded.

>Buy bits to support streamer I like
>Get a bonus for it in the form of random emotes

Gambling entails loss on your part when they aren't losing anything.

Don't bother posting if you don't understand what gambling is. Just because you get something worthless doesn't somehow mean it's no longer gambling. This discussion has been going on for years on Sup Forums.

Chuck E' Cheese is gambling.

oh the irony.

>emote lootbox

Are they still mixing all their chinese bulk order powders in a dirty warehouse with non-sterile scoops?

I remember lots of posts about people finding mites and other crud in their orders.

It is. But the stakes are low enough that people don't give a shit about exposing their children to it. Associating risking one's money with entertainment opens them up to severe gambling addiction later on if they're susceptible to it.

Just because it's socially acceptable doesn't mean it's not gambling. Your argument and logic is fucking flawed.

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS NOT VIDEO GAMES!!!!

>$50 dollars for one fucking emote

Bro, you have no logic. If you did have one logical bone in your body you would realize that EVERYTHING CAN BE CONSIDERED GAMBLING If you skew the definition. Every breath you take is a gamble for example because it could be your last. Your very life is a gamble. Crossing the street is a gamble. See where your logic is flawed?

Spending your money to get a chance of what you actually want to get is not a purchase; it is gambling. It would be different if you simply unlocked the emotes at certain amounts spent, but the fact that there's a possibility you won't get what you're after no matter how much you spend means you're gambling. Full stop.

>Put $100 into slots
>Lose it all with no reward
>gambling

>Buy $100 in bits
>Get $100 in bits + chance to get emotes when I use them

So okay I'll agree with the definition of "gambling" because you are "gambling" on what emotes you want to get. But you still retain the value of bits to use. You get what I'm saying.

whats making you buy this again?

Twitch is taking advantage of people who are weak to gambling addiction to line their own coffers. Remember that Twitch takes 28-29% off of the top of each bit transaction. It would be a little different if that weren't the case, but the fact that the people in control of the odds are the same people profiting from the system makes it pretty shitty. Twitch does not have a gambling license in the U.S.

>oh you spent $100 on the lottery and lost? here's a pack of tissues so we don't get charged with gambling. loser.
keeping it at the legal definition made by lobbyists over the course of decades allows companies to exploit addictive tendencies that anyone could be unlucky enough to have. there is no reason to allow gambling with real money anywhere besides giving an already rich company more money and more incentive to fuck their consumer base.

...

That's estrogen for you, son.

Now? NOW?! IT'S BEEN OUT OF CONTROL FOR FUCKING MONTHS NOW AND GETTING WORSE

>what is going to a club
Pretty HIV isnt temporary

>Oh no I can't control my addiction, FUCK THOSE COMPANIES FOR EXPLOITING ME

wew lads, capitalism at it's finest.

You posting about whatever the fuck that is is what has gotten out of hand.

>real money

maybe if you're a faggot

considering how you're reacting you sound like you'll whale for sure once something you like gets a gacha

Apparently you never learned in school that most people with gambling addiction are genetically predisposed to it. It's one of the reasons unlicensed gambling is outlawed and gambling itself is heavily regulated. It ruins lives and increases crime. Read a history book.

They will buy it in droves anyway
So let's just lean back and see how ridiculous this will get

No, it's literal bro science.

>lootbox system out of throwing pennies at performers on streams

how much longer until the collapse?

>muh biased studies
nobody really knows faggot, also
>history book
more like psychology bullshit book

Are you saying that Twitch isn't taking advantage of people who can't control themselves?

So it's only okay if it's heavily regulated. But still allow people to do it. Gotcha. What's next you're going to say "controlled prostitution" is fine because every human is predisposed to want to have sex?

>setting a service
>taking advantage

get out with your commie shit

Completely different topic. Twitch does not have a license to legally host gambling services in the U.S. They're breaking U.S. laws. The fact that they're not being punished for it does not mean that it's somehow not illegal; just that litigators don't care enough yet.

Casinos without licenses get shut down. Welcome to America.

The chai flavor is pretty tasty and I like having it for breakfast. /blog

Not soon enough.

Yes and all men want to fuck their mother and all women are jealous of men for their penis.

Apparently your class was shit. The bit of psychology we had was a bit of explanation why some stuff feels good (eg winning/gambling)

Fuck off, arab.

Are you saying that prostitution should be illegal or was it just an example of his stupd shit?

The fact that you can't distinguish between psychology and biology speaks volumes about your credibility for this topic. Just let companies and businesses continue with their anti-consumer practices, you doormat.

putting money on something and getting sex by any means are both things that are guaranteed to happen. regulating gambling is the best we can do, so why not regulate prostitution?

your mind seems awfully black and white for this sort of discussion user. why not go find a console war thread instead?

That's kinda cool.
I mean I wouldn't buy his shit but still

Not gambling. It's a donation where you get a sticker that says "I donated today"

>if the state gets the shekels then it's all fine

Prostitution SHOULD be legal is what I'm saying. other user is arguing that what they're doing is illegal because it's considered "unlicensed gambling" . Gambling in a casino and "gambling" for twitch emotes aren't the same thing.

What is oversight?

>bruh you're stupid
Yeah, because the topic at hand has nothing to do with it, right?
Look, you opened this can and I doubt you have the knowledge to actually go deeper on that topic.

You're gambling if you get a STD or not.

Germany is a money laundering heaven.
They won't do anything as long as you pay taxes.
Especially the italian mafia loves Germany
