[2021 April 21] DSP kicked out of Twitch Partnership? Edit: Confirmed.

[PieceofShet]

He accidently stopped the youtube recording.

 

[Salubrious]

He's reading the email he's typing to Twitch aloud, word by word, from off camera while sat at his PC. Is he doing this on purpose to be theatrical, or because he's an idiot?

AND. It's both those things.

I mean, when was the last day DSP streamed without a sob story? It's been so long I legit can't remember anymore.

 

[Swirling weeb]

lol what a dope day

 

[TheyCallItNPD]

So DSP is just at his desk fucking around with Twitch support. Is there any reason that the stream is still running? Oh right so people can give him money.

Not just Phil -- for some reason streamers and Youtubers always do their panicking LIVE when something like this happens. They just can't make the sensible choice of shutting off their stream, logging off Twitter, and dealing with their shit in private.

He accidently stopped the youtube recording.

All of this ranting and raving, and dead air with him off camera typing up a Karen email was going to be uploaded to YouTube because....?

 

[tomstone]

needs to take a break, "worked" too hard and is exhausted

 

[SojiroSakura]

He needs a 5-10 minute (30-40) minute break from sitting and begging.

If Phil did this in private, he wouldn't have received the $400 tip. It's pretty simple why they all do this.

 

[MightyBiteySnake]

Shout outs to this guy lmao

 

[Anonymous Dimwit]

Uh oh, what if now Philth has to explain why they have no savings now that he got unpartnered to Khet?
Horse divorce saga when?

 

[JimiHendrix]

im clapping.

 

[leChinkyRaccoon]

So Twitch tries to keep it secret that partners get a cut on bits and gets mad if people spill the beans? I barely touch the site so I'm not sure how all their funnymoney psychological tricks to milk the paypiggies are structured.

I think what Twitch doesn't want is streamers reminding the viewers how much of a cut Twitch is getting off of every transaction.
They don't want a streamers saying I need $100 bucks in bits so go spend $130 bucks so I can get $100 bucks. At least, that's the most logical thing to me is they want to minimize the disclosure of the amount of money going in versus going out. Even though it's pretty simple and rather obvious if you watch anything on twitch for a length of time, I guess twitch doesn't want the dumbest viewers who spend a lot of money making that connection.

"Let's take a short break, I'll come back. And then we'll for another hour discuss the future; what you guys want me to do."

Oh, fuck off.

 

[Pargon]

He needs a 5-10 minute (30-40) minute break from sitting and begging.

SOO-EE

SOOOOO-EEEEEEE

heeeeeeeere pigpigpigpigpig

 

[tomstone]

Perhaps it's an even better time for a sweaty-man-JPEG filled gin night?

He seems so calmly dismissive about the idea of contacting support that it's pretty suspicious. Surely even he would put in a minimal amount of effort to fight for his income stream (or be really panicking about not knowing how to do so like he claims). He needs that money dood.

he either already knows the reason and/or already got info that it will be restored soon and he is using it for ultra feigning distress scam stream

 

[Zappin’ And Spazzin’]

The fact that he isn't hysterically trying to dispute this with Twitch's staff is proof that he knows he fucked up, but won't admit it. He's a drama-free guy who just wants to play games and have fun.
Just ignore the fact that his streams always get a massive spike in both donations and viewership every time there's drama.

 

[TheGoutburglar]

I love how literally the only time he's admitting earning thousands of dollars per month through Twitch (and not banning people on sight when they mention it in his chat) is when he uses it for a sob story about losing the revenue stream of said thousands of dollars.

Phil's ability to defy logic in his constant need to have it both ways is impressive. He makes money unless he needs to not make any. He's an elite gamer unless he needs to not be one. He's always getting exactly his way unless he needs a different story. And the list goes on, forever.

My impression is that there is an actual legal reason for it. Something like federal wire laws between states.

I don't think it's a pure Twitch decision.

If they do it live, it seems more AUTHENTIC and REAL, and therefore has a better chance of dragging in $$$. Reputational damage and the risk of turning away new viewers doesn't factor into it.

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

I've only read the highlights, and I haven't seen anything actually concrete. Please tell me this isn't a bug and the consequences of his actions are causing him to squirm like a cockroach. I want nothing more than a good solid hit of my "trainwreck" junkie juice.
