for all those custom emojis of course

but seriously. never underestimate the levels of ecstacy a no life neckbeard or autistic teenager experiences having their names read out on a stream

Idk, ask Sup Forums.

>tfw donated entire paychecks just to get attention from my favorite girl streamer
she calls me her bf and sends me original pictures on twitter

you ladies man you

teach me

>spend from 4 hours to 10 hours (yes there are some that stream this long) entertaining people
>some people get entertained, decide to support him

There is also in some cases a "cult of personality" and the sense that subscribing or donating puta you above the rest. These are usually viewers of dumb ass subhumans like sodapoppin

>puta
put*

kek

I've been asking the same question.
I can get that people want to support some unknown guy who just started. But people give to the already filthy rich streamers.

People are retards, I guess.

> no life neckbeard or autistic teenager experiences having their names read out on a stream
this

Because the neckbeards can't get any attention from the girls

because people are dumb as fuck

Fuck you OP. I donated $3250 to a certain girl streamer and she sent me nudes. Shes hot as fuck so suck a fat one cunt.

Its my money I can do what I want with it

Did you feel like the attention she gave you was genuine?

Probably for the same reason people buy merchandise from their favourite sports team. I predict a future where people will be able to tip politicians live during their speeches and have their message read out. How much would you donate to have Shillary or Trump read out your tip during a live debate?

Paying 3250 for nudes, lel

You're engaging in degeneracy right now if they're funding a life style of it.

Girls have life on easy mode and Twitch proves it. You can rake in beta bucks so easy.

You're a massive cuck and that girl is a whore

I really hope this is just a shitpost and you are pulling my leg. If not than you need to get in contact with her immediately and threaten to release her nudes to her family and employment unless she gives you $3250.

I donated 1$ to a grill streamer so a huge black text saying "HITLER DID NOTHING WRONG" was on her stream.

She had no idea how to remove it because her beta mods set everything up for her and got an emotional breakdown.

shit was pretty fun

...

lel. You could hire a 10/10 escort who would fulfill all of your fantasies for an entire 2 days with that kind of money.

ICE POSEIDON

They're just purchasing entertainment.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes with Jamal...

All these. I've been a sub to one streamer for over 20 months now and donated small sums occasionally (to others as well), because I really enjoy watching them and want to support. Love coming home from work and find my favorites streaming. Others would spend their free time and money on games, movies, Netflix or other forms of entertainment.

Some clearly donate for attention or to feel superior, kinda sad but it works I guess

You do realize most gurl g4mer streamers are actually escorts who figured out they could rake in dough without having to get their pussy pounded, right?

Who is this ice poseidon guy?

I really don't know but I sure do enjoy hunting them down in game and watching them rage.

>Why do people donate to streamers?
They're autistic

>Watching someone else play video games

And here you are living life to its fullest posting on Sup Forums.

nice.

Would use it for plenty of time with Gianna Michaels

#PurpleArmy

I've been watching various streamers on Twitch for quite some time now and have never given anyone a single penny,I'm of the opinion that if they want to earn a living they should get off their asses and get a real job like the rest of us,specially considering there is probably only a handful of streamers who actually manage to make a living on subs and donations.

With that said though if someone wishes to support a good streamer (note i exclude fucking booby streamers from this group,they are outright cancerous) who am I to tell them not to? It's their cash and they have the right to spend it however they see fit,and that includes wasting it.

Because they're sad losers

purple pride

Hey subs, thanks for paying for my free entertainment

They make more money than you do, playing games and being lazy as fuck. Pewdiepie for example is a literal retard, yet is a millionaire.

Now tell me you wouldn't do the same if you had the chance.

>tfw no Sup Forums e-celeb streamer that cracks racist jokes while playing video games
would sub

I don't watch muh esports but it's the equivalent of watching an entertainer or an athlete

Most of them are talentless hacks of "entertainers" but I understand the appeal of watching skilled speedruns or pros

There is a twitch streamer who makes music live so I support that. Other than that, I don't use twitch

Some streamers are honestly more entertaining to me than any TV show on air right now.

It's just a new kind of entertainment.

He would be banned from streaming in seconds.

The only guy i watch doesn't take donations.

There is a red-pilled streamer. The only person I donate to.

Also, there is a speed runner by the name of Jackafur that while being cringey by proposing to his gf on a GDQ stream, is actually heavily red pilled. Just check his twitter.

Who else in the 5 dollar club?

>red-pilled
>vegan

To be honest, I've never really understood that either.

The streamers quite literally laugh at how pathetic people who donate are. Some of them have even openly said that on stream countless times.

Yet people are so mentally retarded that they keep donating. They see that the streamer has more money than a middleclass family and is driving some expensive cars, but they still donate under the pretense that they're supporting him.

They all realize that the streamer is fake as fuck and is coming up with everything possible to be faker so he can leech more money, yet they still donate.

Mind blowing, truly makes me ponder..

this
also:
>plays casual games and the most casual modes while at it
>redpilled
pick one

On twitch, yeah.

Arena isn't casual

this dude doesn't even have a license. his gf drives him everywhere.

I have self respect, so no I wouldn't.

That would kill me inside.

>chad

Because I like paying for my entertainment and the money is insignificant.
I mean if the guy that streams has 1000 people watching him and I wont him to keep doing it some users giving him tips may be the difference between him streaming more or not.
Much of my taste in streams is niche, so I feel the need to support it even more.
Larger channels are a cult of personality bullshit, but even there I can see why people would spend money to show support occasionally.
It's not much different to how sport fans will get attached to players.
Sup Forums sucks the teets of a plethora of youtubers for no other reason but because they agree with them and with add money plummeting I'm sure eventually those people will too need donations to produce videos

Ginger desu

Jackafur

Post the nudes or it never happened faggot.

socialmatter.net/2016/04/20/weimerica-weekly-video-episode-21-gaming-and-e-celebrity/

kys my man

people used to stream without receiving a single penny for it, you know, for the art of doing it alone

people used to create a FUCKTON of youtube videos before the monetization era too

not everything is as tightly tied to money as you think it is

>falling for the arena isn't for casuals meme
WEW LAD
Maybe wild isn't forced to be for casuals only, too?
I'm a #blizzdrone now

>Last month was my 24 month sub, be on the lookout for 25 in a few days.

Only twitch streamer I really watch. I'm not degenerate, he provides me with entertainment so In turn i help support his lifestyle so he can keep making great content. If you're upset with that, then you don't get life.

>krip
>great content
are you stuck in 2008 or something?

some people do this as a living, and they're also entertaining people so some people fill like they should donate in order to support them. most big streamers don't have a job outside of streaming so it's helpful.

Nah, it's just my opinion. That's how the world works, you and I both get to have our own. Dont get too worked up senpai.

3 streamers worth watching:
>reckful
>mitch jones
>Ice cx
Streamers worth donating to:
>none

this guy knows what's up
all of those streamers have the freest non-submode chats on twitch, therefor are the closest to what Sup Forums is

and its truly amazing how many unironical whiteknights there are ITT defending the act of paying a fucking manchild to play games

I donated 50 bucks to Ice Poseidon because his Pokemon GO streams are fucking hilarious

youtube.com/watch?v=EK2WhYHAlBA comp

Few highlights from his Miami stream

You seriously find those faggots funny?

There is only one streamer worth watching IMO: Kaceytron

The only streamer I support is Ray Narvaez because I admired him saying fuck you to Rooster teeth and just starting off on his own. Plus he runs a tight chat and plays a lot of games with his community. He's also not afraid to call out shitty people in his chat that are harassing or being whiny. Comedy is a solid 7/10, could be better if he had someone to bounce dialogue off of more often.

best streams i ever saw

Some streamers deserve it, especially people who are leaders within their respective game. I like speedrun streams because you can't actually pander to your viewers but ever since cosmo died it's pretty bland now.

puta still dits in that sentence though

I've never understood the appeal of watching others play video games instead of simply playing yourself. This generation is fucking retarded.

Yeah its pretty dead, i watch delfuego and heinki sometimes, last gdq was tame aswell except for some few fun games, noteworthy was Jak and daxter run just because of the bants

youtu.be/RylQGkoZpSE?t=4929

I've never understood the appeal of watching others play sports instead of simply playing yourself. This generation is fucking retarded.

So accurate.

>tfw your twitchfu reads your name and sends you kiss after donation

alpha as fuck

Did you know that in my country you could bang this escort girl 32 times(bj included) you pathetic cuck.

STOP

CHECK FLAG

I've never understood the appeal to be alive instead of killing yourself. This generation is fucking retarded
