does Semmler get butthurt being called a sack of shit? fuck no. the only way to deal with chat is to embrace it. pls understand what gdstudio stands for before trying to 'get us on front page' bullshit

[–]Rolfnano 26 ポイント27 ポイント

Semmler takes it like a boss

[–]freddie49 18 ポイント19 ポイント

Semmler deals with the hate so well it's hilarious. He reads the comments out, mocks them and literally couldn't care less

[–]devdddd 9 ポイント10 ポイント

Semmler is a funny lad,but pretty sure people are not hating Semmler.

[–]Tuskinton 9 ポイント10 ポイント

Somewhat off-topic, but just going to add to the Semmler fanboi club we got going here. I had barely seen Semmler before he appeared and played Mario Party yesterday, but he's already one of my favorites. His comment to Pyrion about killing flies was so good 'He was just chilling and you had to come over there and fucking colonize him or some shit'.

[–]CoolCucumber 11 ポイント12 ポイント

People aren't weren't hating DPM either. Twitch chat is cyclical with it's jokes. If she just ignored whatever bothered her it would be gone in 20 mins in favor of leg spam, waga literally cat killer spam, etc.

[–]Lactose01 5 ポイント6 ポイント

I've had him publicly call me out during a show for making fun of him.

Granted, I think it was during the BLC is dead phase where he basically had nothing to do.

[–]Berzerk 3 ポイント4 ポイント

He called me out yesterday when I asked him to tell us more about VP and Fnatic. What a champ. Although he started the bit with "time to make people's day" and started to call out people out when he was reading the chat on Jess's ipad. He made my week.

Yes, chat was so good when he interacted with the chat /s

To be honest I think the GD Studio would prefer to be able to talk about dicks and let chat spam than be on the front page.

EDIT: If you guys missed it, DPM was trying to get the channel featured on the front page of twitch, which can give a big boost in views. However the couch was talking about dicks and chat was going crazy with it as well, which isn't great for a new visitor to the frontpage of twitch to encounter. DPM asked the couch to stop talking about it and they did however chat was still going as it takes a while for it to calm down. Instead of just waiting for twitch chat to move onto a new topic, DPM decided to sub mode and to try and stop the chat talking about dicks. Of course this only resulted in making sure chat was even more determined to spam about dicks and also attack DPM. People got permabanned and mods were trying their hardest to warn DPM. Eventually I think DPM conceded and the channel got removed from the frontpage and the chat freed.

DPM replied to me with her version of the events but it got buried

[–]Fusselol 24 ポイント25 ポイント

The lounge stream is not the stream that needs help (front page publicity). The regular EUHUB stream is the one that needs a push. Focus on helping that one instead (let the lounge stream run free) and everything will be fine.

[–]CoolCucumber 8 ポイント9 ポイント

Seriously, if people on the couch can't talk about dicks and we can't even go full retard in the chat why are we even on front page. Censoring chat AND the couch is absolutely ridiculous.

[–]reishid 3 ポイント4 ポイント

I agree. It's like prohibiting SingSing from touching his dick.

[–]Vadrigar 22 ポイント23 ポイント

exactly. Pretty sure all bans will be lifted once james wakes up, but that girl has some serious issues.

[–]Xet 15 ポイント16 ポイント

She's overshadowed by the other girls in the house and she knows it. So this is the only way that she can act in order to try and assert herself.

She's not a bad person.. Just insecure.

It's a pity because she obviously does a lot to help around the place with food etc.. More than most people. But yeh, she doesn't know how to approach Twitch chat.

Jess and Sheever have been much more of a target of chauvinist comments etc. If anything they have far more reason to be annoyed at the stuff said.

So yeh, trying to control GDStudio chat = really bad idea.

    [–]zuriel329 0 ポイント1 ポイント

    The EU couch hub had it highest viewer count when SingSing and Pieliedie, N0tail and Fly were around, to give insight into the games and add their personality. I have a feeling there would be a few thousand more if we could actually get Puppey/Kuro interacting with Jess and the others but i don't expect the views to get higher simply being on the front page. If you told us X player will show up and we get pleasant moments like Mario Party, then the views will come.

    Ryan I think was even telling her that seeing how he experienced this first hand, I think every mod knows by now that the more you put in submode, the worst it will get when you put it back to normal

    She talked to someone in the house who stood off the cam

    Pyrion was just coaching her cause she whined about it to him. He literally said "you have to learn to just not read what you don't want to read"

    Then do it 5 times in a row and see what happens. muh chat experience

    [–]Actinism 34 ポイント35 ポイント

    I don't have a problem with the GD Studio clamping down on chat, but it's completely against the views of the people who run the studio (James lets chat be chat), and the people who watch it.

    DPM has turned up to the studio with Lumi and feels entitled to fuck with, let's be honest, one of the main attractions of the GD Studio, because 'muh feelings'. Reading chat is like punching yourself in the face and being offended that it hurt.

    [–]kkkccc1 1 ポイント2 ポイント

    jess herself has made some hateful comments to twitch users after reading some "offensive" chat comments about herself

    if only they can be good sports like the amazing Sujoy

    [–]Syncyy 18 ポイント19 ポイント

    God bless him

    [–]RedCottOnmouthYellow 8 ポイント9 ポイント

    Yep, she has no idea how Twitch chat works. Sujoy probably didn't either, but he was mature and didn't even acknowledge it.

    Thus, this happened:

    Sujoy first appears "WHO'S THE NIGGER WHO'S THENIGGER WHO'S THE NIGGER."

    Sujoy chills out on the couch, makes a few relaxed comments and spends some time with the viewers "BASED SUJOY. WHAT A GOD. BEST PERSON IN THE GDSTUDIO."

    [–]kkkccc1 8 ポイント9 ポイント

    SuJoy did acknowledge the racist comments and stuff, but sujoy being close to 40, showed his maturity in handling it and being a good sport, thus gaining worldwide respect.

    [–]Actinism 9 ポイント10 ポイント

    It's almost like Twitch chat respects mature and entertaining people, 2 things DPM is lacking.

    [–]StingrayJohnson348 15 ポイント16 ポイント

    Really? "Offensive"? The quotation marks was needed? The fucking filth that twitch chat slings at these women are a fucking disgrace. Good on her telling some fucking 12 years old self-entitled free speech wannabe to fuck off.

    And if DPM read this shit: close the chat. Just close it. If you give them attention they get worse. Let them spam to each other instead

    [–]A_Mouse_In_Da_House 4 ポイント5 ポイント

    If you're going to bait twitch chat, don't cry when chat hits back.

    [–]Tuskinton 9 ポイント10 ポイント

    Same thing goes for chat to be honest. If you're going to be rude to someone, don't expect them to do nothing. If you insult Jess, she has free reign to insult you back.

    [–]Pauleh 3 ポイント4 ポイント

    ^ I don't get why all of chat are butt hurt in this thread, they did it to themselves.

    [–]General_Pants 4 ポイント5 ポイント

    [–]dr99ed 4 ポイント5 ポイント

    jess herself has made some hateful comments to twitch users after reading some "offensive" chat comments about herself

    I mean, if chat is entitled to throw shitty comments to the people on stream then the people on stream should be entitled to do the same.

    If the idea of twitch chat is that everything is fair game, then whatever people say back should be fair game too.

    oh so chat talking about dicks made her so angry she muted basically everyone? smart.

    [–]kkkccc1 7 ポイント8 ポイント

    i think jess brought up the topic about a penis museum and dpm told them to shut up and dpm was "moderating" chat at the same time as well..

    it's a shame cos everyone was really loving DPM for her endless hard work in the GD house.. until this :(

    [–]deek0146 4 ポイント5 ポイント

    They were talking about dicks for a good 5 minutes, not just the dick museum.

    [–]kkkccc1 3 ポイント4 ポイント

    there was a a point where jess even said twitch chat users have no moms.. can't remember the reason but you won't see yames doing that, he'd just lap up all the comments(rude or not) and play along and make witty comments/answers and have a laugh

    [–]RedEyedFreak -1 ポイント0 ポイント

    People who haven't experienced the chat before will only make things worse, until they realise they either have to 100% ignore it or 100% go with it, they will only make their lives harder. You don't have to treat the chat with respect, just don't treat it like shit. Chat is one, chat is legion, expect the Kappa.

    [–]Blood3y3 1 ポイント2 ポイント

    As the great N0tail said once:"When game is going full retard, you can only go with it. If you start going against it, if you start going half retard, you´re fucking done for." The same aplies to twitch chat. <3 and Kappa

    [–]Tranceh 109 ポイント110 ポイント

    Hey guys,

    DPM has been absolutely awesome during these TI4 qualifiers. She's literally been taking care of food for everyone, doing the shopping, sorting out the hotels and travels for every single guest among many other things. Both her and some of the other girls do get a lot of uncalled for abuse in chat and that's not cool. I know we've always had our chat pretty wild-westish and whatnot, and the best way to deal with it is to ignore it, but you can only have that much thick skin to all of this, so please try to understand where the girls stand in all of this. We are on day 12 of this and everyone's nerves, stamina and good spirits are pretty worn out.

    Our chat has always been on the edge of extreme and some people have a hard time dealing with it, which is understandable. Please try to keep any insulting comments addressed to the girls to yourselves otherwise the mods will have to time you out from now on.

    I know Twitch chat is generally a very fucked up place, especially on large number streams. The more you fight it, the more it fights back and you can never win because it's the internet hurr durr. But please for the love of god, try to understand all of this and just tone it down a bit, especially in regards to the girls around the house who have been doing a lot of helping behind the scenes and deserve all of our gratitude.

    ps. Maybe this could have been handled in a different way, but I also understand how she felt and couldn't take it anymore. You poke someone long and hard enough, they will snap. We'll remove some of the bans at a later date, until then we have to ramp modding a bit up until the qualifiers are over.

    [–]Rolfnano 20 ポイント21 ポイント

    Yeah this is getting a bit far, but many of the bans were not deserved. I just said "Kappa" and got banned

    [–]A_Mouse_In_Da_House 40 ポイント41 ポイント

    No response to Jess baiting chat with various comments, then giving a smile directly at the camera knowing what she's doing?

    DPM should just not read chat and she'd be fine. Dpm has lied to everyone in the house about this event, from saying we were on the front page (we weren't), saying we were inciting violence during the usual punch name spam, setting chat into sub mode, r9k AND 10 minute slow mode at the same time so she could ban HUNDREDS of people she didn't like.

    What's the response to all that? Are we really going to let a person go against everything that james encouraged in chat because feelings got hurt and she couldn't follow pyrion's advice of just ignoring chat or just plain not reading any of it?

    Edit: How about jess giving sheever a see through dress and then getting her to go into the cat pen so sun would shine through it and show off sheever's panties? Nothing? Just "Try to understand where the girls stand in all of this"? Trance, this is a cop out answer. I know I as well as many others have unsubbed because of DPM's actions. If DPM is so sensitive, don't let her read twitch chat. TheGDStudio stream doesn't need attention, it's one of the most popular of the TI4 streams. Its not even an official style stream, it is bad if it shows up on the front page, but that is what DPM is trying to claim is best? This isn't the GD studio most of us love. Why change who you are to suit people who aren't even part of the studio?

    [–]DrakenZA 5 ポイント6 ポイント

    Jess isnt telling people to spam the chat about OPEN YOUR LEGS and SHOW YOUR PUSSY and etc. That is just twitch chat.

      You don't understand. DPM's Nazi regime turned the "wild-westish" chat to an unbearable flame fest. It's on her.

      [–]pseudolf 7 ポイント8 ポイント

      I am totally on your side trancemaster, but i am just so disappointed in dpms way to handle it. Also i think it would have been a different story if someone that has already earned the respect of the GD studio twitch chat like you would have moderated it.

      [–]Plagued_Platypus 17 ポイント18 ポイント

      It's great that you're trying to back her up in this, but the fact is, someone who isn't a member of your studio, and isn't even a mod on your channel has caused people to unsubscribe due to behaviour which your studio wouldn't usually endorse. Just because she has been helpful around the house doesn't give her the right to take control of that which is not hers. Don't get me wrong - I think everyone on twitch understands the work she has been doing, and there has been a lot of positive spamming towards her too, but at the end of the day, you shouldn't be happy with / allowing someone to take control of and affect your chat in a way you usually wouldn't, just because she's a member of Twitch staff.

      [–]bd86 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      [–]Luffydude 6 ポイント7 ポイント

      So basically you are saying, "hey guys I'm sorry about her ruining the fun but we can't talk sense into her because she cooks and books hotels". Seriously we don't care about what goes on behind, we only care about the stream quality. When SingSing and n0tail were there, it was super entertaining. When there's a boring Waga talking all the time and a nazi without a change of clothes banning everyone it just becomes an even lower quality Big Brother.

      [–]365365 6 ポイント7 ポイント

      • At the time she started with sub mode I think noone even talked about her? She just sat at the laptop and the chat rolled with Jess' dick-talk. You talk about thick skin but the chat wasn't even talking about her? For me it seems like shes just insecure because shes not in the spotlight like the other girls.

      • Why would someone go to the house and be "big-brother-like-exposed" if you don't have a thick skin? Especially when you're Twitch-Staff you should know how "awful" the chat acts.

      • And talking about being Twitch-Staff: How can you handle this situation that horrible?

      [–]A_Mouse_In_Da_House 7 ポイント8 ポイント

      You moderate a chat how you want it to be, James handles it well so he doesn't need to have heavy moderation but DPM took it to a personal level and banned thousands. It only shows who's in control, chat was asking people to thank DPM for her work earlier but she took a joke too seriously and tried to force her way through now.

      [–]Pro_Procrastinator 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      It shouldn't have been handled this way but that does not excuse the fact that the vast majority of people in twitch chat are treating the people on stream like animals. The best thing to do with twitch chat is to learn to ignore it but not all people have such a thick skin and quite honestly to endure the chat in its current state would require the girls in the house to have the thickest skin imaginable. You can't behave like a complete douchebag and expect not to be treated as one.

      [–]PacGamer 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      Trance, you know I love you guys, especially with these qualifiers that I have been watching every day for the last 2 weeks. For the entirety of the event so far, DPM has been nothing but awesome for the stream. Literally everyone over there has made the event better.

      But come on, does Twitch not learn from their mistakes? It was like Portal 2 after you put Wheatley in control of the entire facility.

      [–]Tranceh 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      I know how it is, the more you fight twitch chat the more prone you are to rip your hair off. We just need to let this cool down for now, everything will be back to normal. I tried to explain how things are right now, some people get it, others don't.

      [–]Xet 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      Sure, but timeouts for personal attacks aren't really the problem. That should be standard.

      Twitch chat makes fun of everyone in the end. They spam that Semmler is a sack of shit. That's pretty much in line with saying DPM wears the same dress every day.

      Blatant sexist comments like 'Show your tits' are however a different story. Although at the same time Twitch spams for Sujoy to take off his shirt and that's okay..

      Basically yes, should've been handled differently.

      Edit: To clarify, I only expressed that she was handling the whole situation totally wrong, going against the guidelines set by Trance himself. Had I called her a "dumb nazi mod whore abusing her powers" then perhaps I could understand getting a timeout, but yeah.

      [–]KnowledgeJunkie7 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      He was a Twitch staff or admin (can't remember which) who had a PR situation, which led to calls of "remove horror" which he tried to stifle, IIRC. Obviously it didn't turn out super great for him.

      [–]Ginger_ThrowAway 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      He was an Admin, and a gay furry. He decided to get a global emote for his boyfriend's furry persona, a speedrunner mocked it asking what he had to do sexually to Horror to get a global emote of his own. That started the whole big wave of abuse vs the speed run community where channels were closed for having "remove horror" in their broadcast title and chatters were globally banned for it.

      The thing is, Twitch is also a business for Studios like GD. Potential viewers or even subs getting pissed because of DPM and leaving the stream, grabbing their pitchforks to post on Reddit etc. = not gooooood

      Maybe DPM doesn't realize she's making things worse.

      this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. has DPM never been in a twitch chat before? timing out 12k people isn't going to accomplish anything. she's trying to tame chat and basically poking a lion with a stick. sub mode and mass timeouts AND PERMANENT BANS has never improved a twitch chat.

      [–]MaynPayn 2 ポイント3 ポイント

      sure, it has. You just need to be consistent and chat will be improved.

      [–]f_myeah 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      You're absolutely right.

      I frequent 3 or 4 streams which have 1k-3k viewers at a time, and time out/ban this sort of nonsense. As a result they are wonderful communities free from childish insults and dick-jokes... every now and then you see some low-brow comment, but it last for 2 seconds before it's timed out.

      All these people saying "Twitch chat is Twitch chat so you should just accept the trolls" don't understand that streams that allow negativity breed negativity. You don't have to just roll over and accept childish behaviour.

      [–]nighoblivion 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      Stricly moderated 1-3k viewer channels are not comparable to this situation, though. Hell, there are unmoderated 1-3k channels that are free from childish insults and dick jokes.

      [–]Xet 9 ポイント10 ポイント

      I personally don't really like most of the GDStudio chat. I mean, it's full of sexism, racism, etc etc..

      But at the same time it does create amusing stuff. Ultimately you have to just accept the anarchy I guess. You can't try and control it. You have to just ignore it if it upsets you.

      That's why 95% of the time I don't have the chat visible until the people in the house respond to something that's actually funny.

      DPM clearly doesn't understand how the GDStudio chat works. Also it seems she's never heard of the Strysand effect.

      Permabanning people who say '༼ ᕤºل͟º ༽ᕤ PUNCH DPM༼ ᕤºل͟º ༽ᕤ' is beyond nonsensical.

      [–]Apocalypstic 3 ポイント4 ポイント

      The thing about Twitch chat is that you can't expect submode to placate your chatroom unless you have deliberately built up a community around it, like LethalFrag. Suddenly changing a chatroom known for it's easy-going manner and anarchic attitude like the gdstudio's doesn't solve anything, it just makes it worse.

      [–]Cr4zE 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      Twitch chat is a lot like Anarchy in Twitchplayspokemon. It rarely gets nothing done and there will be people there to purely fuck it up, but it means than when something does happen, it makes it all more glorious.

      [–]365365 9 ポイント10 ポイント

      Im not even sure

      Jess started with some dick-talk and chat "just rolled with it"

      Then she started so put sub mode on because of the "immature chat" and the stream is on the frontpage of twitch (which it isnt?!)

      I think thats what started it...im not even sure

      Oh and when she turned submode off the usual "nazimods" and "punch dpm" started so she turned it on and off and said something about violence...she just made it worse

      [–]dr99ed 2 ポイント3 ポイント

      It's a stupid move on her part but I don't think any of us really are qualified to know how it feels to have hundreds of people calling you a fat fuck and saying all sorts of other racist/generally offensive shit.

      Ask any 'internet personality' and they will tell you how difficult it is to deal with abuse like that. Most other people on the stream have been used to it for a long time now and have grown thick skins and let stuff go over their head, but DPM isn't usually someone in the spotlight so it's probably pretty tough to deal with.

      She dealt with it the completely wrong way but it's a bit more complicated than saying "just relax about it".

      322 years since DPM permabanned everyone.i walk through the empty gdstudio chat trying to think of something else but my path always leads to the chat. i stare at the screen for hours and try to summon the spam. i watch RyanEditor and Dearn Nazi modding but its no good. i flame Bamsebomsen and Re1nforce trying to get banned but it is all meaningless. the end is near.i then usually watch some old chat logs and cry myself to sleep.

      [–]mmosb4hoes 4 ポイント5 ポイント

      twitch chat = asshole of internet and worse than most 4chan posts. Twitch should be in permanent submode if you ask me. All of those people using it to spam ""SHEEVER TONGUE WRESTLE JESS OMG KAPPA LMAO"" arent funny. They arent contributing anything to the conversations or the streams in general. Maybe if twitch chat didnt have the tendency to give all of the people who view it chat aids, people wouldnt have to put their streams in submode. Perhaps instead of posting a hate thread on DPM, post a hate thread on the cancerous twitch chat?

      She thinks she has the right to do everything because she can cook. The chat can be rude for everyone including Sheever and Tobi and the others, but they all know how to cope with it. I don't think Dota 2 community need someone who makes her own rules. She is just irritating.

      [–]Concegaf 2 ポイント3 ポイント

      DPM just shot herself in the foot.

      I don't know how much the rest of you know about Twitch culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in other Twitch chats where you can become successful by being an overbearing Mod. If you screw non-subs over in GD Studio Chat, you bring hate upon yourself, and the only way to get rid of that hate is repentance.

      What this means is the GD Studio chat, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase subscriptions, nor will they tune into streams and purchase tickets for future GD Studio events. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but DPM has alienated an entire market with this move.

      DPM, publicly apologize and unban most of chat or you can kiss your reputation with chat goodbye.

      I'm only kidding it's based on this http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11960243

      [–]CrsJess 2 ポイント3 ポイント

      Hey guys, I'd like to apologize for all this. I started all the dick talk, and DPM then kindly asked me to keep it PG-13 so as not to cause any problems with Twitch. She's just trying not to upset anyone, and it was awesome of her to get The GD Studio stream on her front page.

      [–]Dinnerperminute 7 ポイント8 ポイント

      Everyone was enjoying the dick chat though. No fun allowed.

      [–]cbr777 6 ポイント7 ポイント

      Tell DPM nobody gives a shit about her front page bullshit, never in the history of the GD Studio has the stream or the chat been censored to PG-13.

      From a PR stand point for her, this was a big mistake, twitch chat won't forget this nor will it let it go.

      EDIT: BTW the stream wasn't even on the front page, so either she's clueless or a liar.

      Dick talk is standard on the gd studio, we were never on the front page of twitch and I'm quite sure most people appreciate you interacting with chat. If she ignored it the chat would have dissipated much quicker without degenerating into what it has now.

        Honestly most people in chat are acting like spoiled 12 year old children, and they got put in time out. They then continued to act like 12 year old spoiled children and people got banned, I feel no pity. Chatting is a privilege, not a right lol, and when you spam hitler chants, punch dpm (and make death threats) you get what you deserve.
