It is harder than you might think to be "a good person." Especially if you want to be ambitious. It's also difficult to put into words what public opinion can do to someone. If you are not truly humble, it will make you feel big. That's when you make mistakes.
Most of the drama we see is largely from there being two types of gun creator, though it may be more of a spectrum. The first is the "theater kid" gone macho. These guys wanted fame from the start. A lot of the old guard is the other end: honest hobbyists/autists who want to share. Social media, however, comes with a lot of problems you can never really be trained to deal with ahead of time.
I generally like the latter kind of guys, even when they get twisted up over time. They mean well and you can accept their faults. The former, however, have always annoyed me. I reflexively resist giving attention to people who want it above all else.
Personally, I just try to keep the show on topic. I have to let some personality through to keep funding coming. That's because people will only support people. I try to do this as responsibly and direct as possible. I want to avoid the slippery slope of being some parasitic streamer feeding on loneliness. I would rather have avoided any and all personal celebrity if I could have. I don't get excited to be recognized and yet it's also always nice to be recognized because it means the work is appreciated. Also when I am, it's almost always someone who enjoys my same interests, so chances are we will get along. So that part is nice.
