Regarding Livestreams
Posts: 14
His main point was this ".. if you are going to broadcast a different game, don't broadcast it on a different game website just for viewers, it's cheesy and embarrassing.". First of all, I just want to say 90% of my casts are company of heroes and the only reason why I stream is because I like to chat and interact with viewers who happen to come by and watch. If they enjoy the stream/game, great! If they don't, thats fine too and they can simply leave. But I was most offended at the accusation that I'm scrounging for viewers when it is simply not the case. I was shocked when this person just came in telling me to remove my stream from the website when the majority of my casts are on CoH, especially when CoH2 goes open its practically the only game I'll be playing with my friends. It hit me right in the feels lol.
I just find it counter-productive to have to remove my stream link from my profile every time I am not streaming company of heroes, especially when MOST of my casts are all company of heroes. I'm not the sort of person who will just spam their twitch link to any location just to get as many viewers as possible. I don't stream with the hopes of monetary gain, nor will I ever ask for donations. I simply enjoy interacting with people who come into my stream, it really does make it a lot more fun!
Please share your opinions on this. If a lot people find it offensive that myself or others leave our streams on our profiles when we are playing games other than company of heroes, I will update it accordingly for the time I am NOT playing company of heroes.

Besides, whenever someone doesn't stream CoH - and said person's main viewerbase originates from CoH2.org or GR.org - you'll likely have less viewers.
As such it's quite easy for viewers to filter non-CoH broadcasts from CoH-broadcasts (high viewer count = CoH - low viewer count = Non-CoH OR new streamer)
This is of course a of a black-and-white statement, but I find it to be fairly true.
Take HelpingHans for an example. If he streams CoH he'll probably have 70+ viewers or so. If he doesn't, it's more than halfed (from what I've noticed).
Oh, and you can see what a person's broadcasting by just hovering your mouse over the name on the cast-list.
TL;DR: Just ignore him, there are really no issues with it.
Of course it would be a bit silly if you got your stream on this page and didn't stream CoH at all, but if you've done it just once or so I don't see any problems at all with streaming other games (I do it myself).

No. It was not an Admin. A regular fellow CoH streamer, I won't give out names. I am well aware of trolls and they rarely EVER get to me. Just for some reason this one got me, he seemed genuine and I was shocked due to the person it was coming from.. thats all.
And no, it was not Barton, if it was Barton or Ironr0man or any COHEXPERT , I would have known they are just kidding

Currently I have been streaming Dishonored and AoE2 through this website and no one seems to care. So don't worry about it. I am surprised this other streamer hasn't flamed me yet XD.

Lol, if we had that rule then I would have never discovered DayZ/ArmA2, a game that I've spent about 250 hours in now. Good thing you didn't tell us his name, or he would be the embarrassed one.
To whoever that person is: people on this sight enjoy watching people they know from here playing games other CoH, and if you don't like what you see on their channel then just close it.

I honestly can't believe there's a thread about what some guy said in a stream chat. Simply don't give fucks.
True, 9 out of 10 times I would have simply given no fucks if it was just a random. Unfortunately it wasn't a random so it made me question this whole thing just for a minute.
But all the responses in this thread has otherwise just confirmed what I believed that it was a foolish thing to suggest to begin with. Thanks all.
