shcboomer Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Actually, gonna need to cancel tonights stream. Sunday's are the roughest day at work. I barely have any energy left. Sorry :/ No worries, life is definitely more important. Quote
Steve Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Btw I'm gonna also post it here, I would recommend http://www.hitbox.tv/ for streaming if you don't care about making money through streaming and just want to stream to friends and read comments. There is no delay there (compared to 1 minute delay on twitch). The delay is probably the most important thing that ruins friendly twitch streams since you want to be able to interact with the chat. Reg is easy, no verification needed or anything. Twitch has to have those delays and stuff because their servers can't just handle hundreds of thousands of people watching at once, hitbox is new and barely anyone streams there so no delay or processing of your video to lower quality required. so hitbox pros: - no delay - no lag cons: - no money - no fame I guess xD - no Kappa Quote
Flutterz Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Batman's streams get about 10 viewers, so he'll be missing out on several cents of ad revenue if he switches! Quote
OriginalRen Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 About the pink headphones? Or the beard? I hadn't shaved. Also, pink headphones are nothing to laugh about. They were the only ones I had. Quote
Steve Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Batman's streams get about 10 viewers, so he'll be missing out on several cents of ad revenue if he switches! Well you need to get 1000 concurrent viewers and stream regularly at least 3 days per week to even be able to earn money on twitch so he earns nothing xD So except the emoticons it will basically be the same and there will be no delay. Twitch is still the best for big streams and money making, but for small streams of few friends there are alternatives like this. So unless batman wants to become full-time streamer as a profession, it doesn't matter xD Quote
OriginalRen Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 The community must know that solidbatman hates fun and VNs! Quote
OriginalRen Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 This seriously made me burst into laughter by the way. Thank you. My status update should reflect how this may or may not make me feel at the moment. Flutterz 1 Quote
Stanleys Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I'm in support of Steve's idea. No delay+Bats not making any money=more fun. The only problem is batman hates fun. This could be an issue... Quote
shcboomer Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 The biggest problem with Hitbox is that it has the same people as OWN3D... That in itself should really raise some red flags. Quote
Steve Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Doesn't really matter as long as it streams, like I said don't expect to become famous and get paid money and you can stream there without a delay for bunch of friends If you want to become famous and professional streamer, well then twitch is the best way obviously xD Quote

It's more of a personal stance on not supporting what OWN3D was behind... Quote
Flutterz Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Could someone enlighten me as to what OWN3D is? Quote
Steve Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Could someone enlighten me as to what OWN3D is? A streaming company who went bankrupt because they couldn't pay the streamers what they earned from the ads. This is the same CEO. Well boomer it doesn't have to be hitbox then if you know any other site that is as easy to use and has no delay, but I see no reason. There is no "supporting" them, bats would just be using the streaming service for free because for this type of stream (friendly with few people) it is better than other streaming sites. (and actually the own3d stigma is good, at least there is not much traffic since nobody streams on their site and so it doesn't lag xD) Quote

Be it one streamer more or even for a private stream. Using their services basically counts as supporting them. Quote
Steve Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Well I know almost nothing about the OWN3D incident so I don't think it even matters. They had legal issues with payments, they had to go bankrupt, that happens to all companies and even though it might be the same person, maybe he will now do better job and take this as a new opportunity. I don't really know but I wouldn't throw away very useful website just because I disagree with one person there - but I know many people do even with Fuwanovel and hate on us because of Aaeru or whoever, even though we are very useful website. My friend streams on hitbox and its always nice no delay stream and that's all I care about - its useful website so why not use it. PS: Google and especially the Youtube part is much more evil and steals money from content producers every day by allowing fake claims and such, and yet everyone is still using. Quote
solidbatman Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 Let's not turn this thread into a discussion on morality within the streaming industry. I'll continue using twitch for now, but will look into other options. Quote
Zakamutt Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I'd personally appreciate you trying out hitbox, despite its *cough* colorful history. The delay on twitch is so terrible for me that I don't care, and you're unlikely to make them much money anyway. Quote

I suppose I can, but my schedule is soo busy... Quote

Steve Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Did you mean Teamspeak appearances? Kappa Quote
Lewycool Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Did you mean Teamspeak appearances? Kappa That people don't even talk in ;P Quote

I'll continue using twitch for now, but will look into other options. Sorry, I'll keep it down. I don't express my opinions publicly that often, but this was one issue I have a pretty hard stance on. Anyway, I look forward to more of your stream batman. <3 Quote
solidbatman Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Friday Paca Plus stream will begin around 7pm Eastern tomorrow. Quote
