why does twitch suck so much

yup that

Well, honestly it's part ineptitude, part not giving a shit, and part spending too much time getting high and laid by titty streamers in the hopes that we'll raise their profile/make them partners.

There's a few of us that know what we're doing, but most the time the higher ups hire niggers, women and the disabled because they're more concerned about how twitch looks, over how it runs.

How does it feel to be responsible for the cancer killing the internet and vidya both at the same time?

prove that, newfag.

Excellent question. You know what I studied at university? I studied comp sci - I wanted to help construct an AI that would help people with cerebral palsy live a meaningful life.

Here I am though, coding for a shitty site, owned by amazon that doesn't give a shit about its actual talent. My biggest regret currently is that google actually tried to hire me to work over on youtube development, and stupidly I turned it down because my girlfriend at the time hated the idea of moving.

unban my boy ice poseidon

is that gay or straight porn

...

gay AF

Straight. I don't endorse gay sex.

lol...That's not just a no, but a fuck no.

That's because you're standing next to it, user.

underage b&

he dindu nuffin TriHard

...

That's not what the evidence says. Anyone who's stupid enough to message jailbait for nudes on the twitch IM system deserves everything they get.

That's what you get when a woman makes your decision. Did she cheat on you?

Ironically, she moved for a job in NY. I was not impressed the day I found that out.

post proof? doubt it's legit

Proof of...

Can you boost my boy AlphalphaTeamLilRascal?

i was just on twitch yesterday, all fucking transcode options were literally buffering, the most amount of buffer any of the quality options had was about 5-6 seconds

meanwhile the source quality was 20+ seconds without issue

you guys are owned by fucking amazon and their CDNs now, this is inexcusable

you've been shit before amazon bought you out compared to youtube live and still are, after what? 2-3 years since that buy out?

him asking for underage nudes, he got banned for making twitch look bad from the airplane swat + all the trihard shit

...

How did she know she was underage?

lol isn't livestreams delay only a few seconds?

>Engineer
Where's the engineering in using ffmpeg and multicast broadcasting?

Trust me, we've been through ALL of this. A group of us actually threatened to walk out unless they let us redevelop the site with HTML5 - Part of the problem is that the hardware we have to work with is...Not optimal. In fact it's laughable.

What's in it for me?

And you don't think asking minors for nudes on our messaging system would make twitch look bad?

also the fact that it takes 3 -4 fucking clicks navagating thru your HTML5 player (which took 5 fucking years to come out itself) just to open those advance stats is also a joke

its literally 1 fucking right click on youtube and you have the stats option there in the initial menu

When LilRascals blow up we'll take you along for the ride

no one said he did that till you in this thread retard l0l. you don't even have proof of being part of twitch. even if he did, easily could of not known the age

which titty streamers have you fucked

I mean...That SOUNDS like a good plan in theory user, but what if I put all that hard work in, and you're just plain shit?

give sauce for pic

0, hes a cave troll that thinks that we buy that shit. No proof apported so far.

Recently? Celestiavega was dtf, Amouranth gives good head. Last Twitchcon, Schivftyfive took on three of us, but she's not a titty streamer in so many words.

Cave trolls get paid more and have better working conditions.

bump. cmon op

We stream mlp battles and furplay it's a huge market that's just growing.

Any proof you actually work for twitch? Fucking shit only use twitch prime for that sweet sweet loot

By growing you mean...

anyone you know fuck stpeach in her ass yet

if she was DTF why didn't you fuck her, faggot

bcuz she wasn't lol, prob just led on to network (although this dude is faking it af)

Only a couple of other streamers

I was busy at the time.

That and STDs.

newfags asking for proof, as if being a person with a job is like having a fucking medal hahahahahahah
