streamchat

[fringe crest]

That costs an arm and a leg

[bronze pier]

Yep. Before that it was freestanding bbs sites. My first modem was only 300 baud. Used to drive people crazy to watch it from their side because it was so slow...

[fringe crest]

Yhe first ever YouTube video of the dude at the zoo lol

[bronze pier]

early internet video was so bad...

[hollow yacht]

I can’t tell if this is nostalgic or making my body install a new aging dlc

[bronze pier]

Not exactly nostalgia on my part...I'm just old.

[livid heath]

so no stream today

did thor say why?

[distant rapids]

He got sicky

Psssh. As if he could get sick, he's obviously a computer program pretending to get sick

[rain hazel]

hence the message in the stream channel that tagged everyone

[livid heath]

yeah that's what i thought

[livid heath]

stream channel? i don't see it

[distant rapids]

Sometimes i just like answering questions. Makes me feel something.

[rain hazel]

@livid heath #streams

[terse hedge]

Unfortunately Thor got Skibidi so he has to take a day to recover his ligma

[livid heath]

i don't have access to this channel

do i need a specific role that i don't see bc i'm blind or what?

oh

oh nevermind

i'm stupid

i had the roles that blocked the stream channels XDDDD

i didn't read that it blocks them

[late bane]

Program got a virus

[distant rapids]

I... you know what, that tracks.

[livid heath]

someone put , instead of . in his code

or divided by 0

[serene valley]

Computers also get viruses

[livid heath]

or maybe someone knocked the drive he's on off the computer like my friend did

[exotic forge]

So Thor got a bug?

[lucid aspen]

he caught cold

[distant rapids]

He caught a cold... and is holding it for ransom

[vocal garnet]

Bro with this Destiny stuff coming out I feel so awful

All my heroes are dead to me

[late bane]

This is just making me think Jeff Goldblum in Independence Day.

[indigo wadi]

what?

Why exactly is Destiny a hero to anyone?

[vocal garnet]

You're asking in Thors discord why Destiny's has a fan base☠️

[spring atlas]

man i know the drama is over and all but i love seeing karma biting people in the ass

a certain rogue just got sentenced to death basically

rest in piss

the execution is on sunday

the lord's day

[indigo wadi]

I know, the irony of the question

[indigo wadi]

the world is healing

[spring atlas]

hopefully

[strange flume]

Sharing pics of people you've sleepd with is cringe but not something that I care for, I doubt destiny did it with any type of malice.

[indigo wadi]

I'm watching the video, this entire thing is wild

[spring atlas]

no way toxic League player could be toxic again?

right?

[trim crater]

Blood for the Blood god. 🩸

[spring atlas]

Hakkar will be pleased

[arctic hearth]

vindication is kinda nice^^

[indigo wadi]

the whole "it's his character" logic is wild

[spring atlas]

it's clearly not

[arctic hearth]

xD

i mean its HIS character xD

[indigo wadi]

no, that's him as a person, not a character.

[spring atlas]

remember guys it's for content

[arctic hearth]

thats what i mean^^

[indigo wadi]

gotcha

[exotic forge]

Except when it comes to Thor....we need him to play perfectly and apologize profusely and be accountable.

Everyone else can be a POS

[spring atlas]

you get it

[late bane]

My favorite thing is seeing people making "hit piece videos" about Thor and this community and the videos get like, 588 views lol

[indigo wadi]

Who was the first person talking in defense of Yam?

[late bane]

How many streamers (including Soda) were laughing about T1 causing wipes and letting healers die, it was basically a meme, no one was out for blood then

[spring atlas]

i mean they are trying to drag out Thor's past as well

which is cringe af

[indigo wadi]

Probably because Tyler was completely new to the game and...it's Tyler

[spring atlas]

like who cares he had a fursona

[late bane]

True

[arctic hearth]

tyler is prob used to dumb toxic behaviour, being a league player and all

[late bane]

I love how these people use pictures of Thor from years ago, before he quit soda and lost weight, for the thumbnail. Like if youre going to make a cringe trash video, at least be honest about it

[smoky crypt]

Tbh seeing Tyler1 in this whole OF event made me think of him a bit differently than before.

[indigo wadi]

ROFLMAO "are we going to take into account Yamato almost got 3 seperate groups killed in the same day, there were very close kills and people did die?"

[spring atlas]

wdym honest

the "hit" pieces

are slander

[indigo wadi]

Probably has to do with him having a daughter and maturing.

[late bane]

I meant that to be ironic

[trim crater]

It's just the same ol stuff, taken out of context to make him look bad and rope in more people who dont do research, or think for themselves.

[smoky crypt]

Its all a smear campaign brudda.

[shadow dawn]

The wildest "new" thing to me is the whole Animal Well thing, like...
Are these people sure they passed elementary??

[late bane]

yes, sorry I meant it to be ironic

[smoky crypt]

It's great to see honestly.

[indigo wadi]

Yeah, I 've seen him before daugther and after daughter and it's such a change

[late bane]

Lol, i love yinz ❤️ Yes i know those videos are cringe smear lies, I was attempting to be Ironic with them not even being honest in the thumbnail

[trim crater]

No no i got, it's just exhausting, losing faith in humanity constantly.

[shadow dawn]

Also, hello friends!
Cannot sleep rn, might randomly pass out lol

[smoky crypt]

Least the LSF threads are slowing down

[late bane]

Is there a TLDR for that ? I wont watch a YT because im not giving those people 1 cent from my YT premium

[indigo wadi]

roflmao lacari

[late bane]

Forgive my ignorance, whats an LSF?

[indigo wadi]

People claiming that Thor walkthrough guided his play of animal well

[indigo wadi]

livestream fails

[smoky crypt]

A place full of scum and villainy

[vast pilot]

probably because he's not streaming today. no fresh "content"

[spring atlas]

he also talked mad shit didn't he?

[indigo wadi]

when doesn't he?

[spring atlas]

was salty about the mage dagger still

[late bane]

Is playing a videogame with a walkthrough taboo?

[spring atlas]

play the game however you like

[trim crater]

Reddit "live stream fails", dont use reddit so found out, it exists trough all this ordeal.

[spring atlas]

who's gonna stop you?

[late bane]

honestly asking cause Im fairly new to discords/twitch

[spring atlas]

the fun police?

[indigo wadi]

No, but Thor managed to solve most puzzles (while collabing with chat) before any guides were out iirc

Because the game launched very shortly before Thor started playing it

[shadow dawn]

Ppl are also not able to comprehend that the 7 hr video on the yt channel is a condensed version

[late bane]

ohhh it has puzzles

[trim crater]

Unhinged internet people trying to find any thread to hang on the hate. smh.

[indigo wadi]

from 83 hours

[shadow dawn]

Of 80+ hours of gameplay

[spring atlas]

what puzzles

huh?

did i miss something?

someone is mad at Thor for solving puzzles?

[indigo wadi]

No, ppl are mad because they believed Thor faked solving puzzles

aka: making up reasons to stay mad

[arctic hearth]

would be funny if it wasnt so sad

[vast pilot]

Doesn't help that Albino made a video on it.

[smoky crypt]

they just trying to justify anger

[spring atlas]

so the regular clowns coming out the woodworks to hate basically?

[arctic hearth]

pretty much

[indigo wadi]

yes

[smoky crypt]

That's insulting to clowns

clowns are at least funny

[shadow dawn]

And some of the reasoning is like: he solved this super hard puzzle in 10 minutes and then got stuck on super easy thing for 20 - thats not believable!!!1!

[late bane]

I did a summer, 3 months, of clown school, it was awesome

[spring atlas]

no they can be entertaining

but too much of them and it's not so funny anymore

and we are currently experiencing a clown car situation

just when you think they will stop

there come even more

[indigo wadi]

OMG, not the "turning the murlocs..." line 😂

[trim crater]

Crazy stuff all of it, anyways pals gn, don't let all of this sour your good vibes.

[indigo wadi]

my vibes are good

[shadow dawn]

Good night friend!!

[smoky crypt]

My vibes are great, I get to playtest one of my favorite games' new update

isna good day

[late bane]

I was a psychology major, I enjoy looking at the social implications of all this; its literally breaking ground for social psychology; the internet is so new its changed all the rules for social interactions

[indigo wadi]

what game?

[shadow dawn]

Mostly i care for an afternoon, then its just frustration the mods and Thor have to deal with the brain dead hordes

[late bane]

Im at work now, not too bad, and im getting wingstop for dinner after, its a super awesome day with great vibes

[smoky crypt]

Darkest Dungeon 2

[late bane]

ohhhh Darkest Dungeon, i bought it during a steam sale i think but never downloaded it or played it

[spring atlas]

man did the Corrupted Blood incident teach us a lot

[smoky crypt]

I can't say anything about my impressions due to NDA but I'm doing the new game mode

[late bane]

reaffirmed that people will ruin something just because they can lol

[shadow dawn]

Ohh psychology is super interesting!! Yeah the internet changed so much so fast

[smoky crypt]

And the uh, DLC

But new stuff next week for dd2

[shadow dawn]

You CAN tell us if youre having fun tho

[indigo wadi]

Hows it in comparison to DD1?

[smoky crypt]

I can say this much. The new game mode is like DD1

[smoky crypt]

I have 3k hours in dd1, dd2 is pretty much a different game but hits the battles in a fun way

[indigo wadi]

I need to actually dedicate time to DD1

[smoky crypt]

they made things less rng based and did something of a token system, less randomness but the depth is there

Then dd1's modding scene is something else entirely

[late bane]

Nope, turns out It was Fear and Hunger I bought but havent played, not DD1

Is DD1 fun?

[smoky crypt]

Creative people pay hundreds of dollars for art and animation for modded classes

It's one of my favorite games DD1

I'd say it's fun, mods make it go far

[shadow dawn]

That sounds absolutely bananas

[indigo wadi]

Mods usually do ya

[smoky crypt]

It hard on the surface but knowledge makes the difficulty less

[late bane]

So fun fact, I am fairly new to PC gaming, I used to be solely consoles since i had a macbook pro. How do you play mods? or buy them?

[indigo wadi]

I alwas have the curio wiki up 😂

[smoky crypt]

Mods are free on the steam workshop

[indigo wadi]

or nexus

[smoky crypt]

Nexus is bad for DD specifically though, everything is out of date there

[late bane]

and umm, do you have to install them or is it automatic? like how does the game know there is a mod?

[indigo wadi]

fair

[smoky crypt]

If I may link a mod that just released.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3409701879

Glorious man

[indigo wadi]

That's pretty good art

[smoky crypt]

Fully custom art, animation, sounds.

And theres hundreds of mods like this

[indigo wadi]

Yeah, not surprised

[smoky crypt]

DD has an insanely dedicated artist community

Moonkanin, Marvin Seo, Zap, SPurple to name a few

MetalGy

They all just replicate the game's original art

10/10 recommend if you ever get bored

[smoky crypt]

its all automatic with steam

ya just subscribe and boom bam

then activate in-game

[late bane]

Oh cool!

[smoky onyx]

Is there a spot I can put a link for my own stream without breaking any rules?

[lapis wind]

Yeah, #advertising

[smoky onyx]

Thank you!

[jaunty acorn]

Is that the goat Oliver?

[smoky crypt]

The one and only.

The mod author is a FE fan

[jaunty acorn]

https://tenor.com/view/me-atrapaste-es-cine-its-cinema-cinema-esto-es-cine-gif-17729711691959966457

[smoky crypt]

They made a Fire Emblem Crit SFX replaced for crits too

[stoic zealot]

can someone explain to me what animel well is and why I keep seeing people saying thor cheated at it . . .

[late bane]

just ignore it. its hate baiting

[smoky crypt]

Circle Jerking haters nothing more

[late bane]

just like (insert celebrity or politician that one prominent person hates) is blasted because of popularity

[indigo wadi]

"Animal Well revolves around exploration via nonlinear platforming and puzzle solving.[1] As in other Metroidvanias, the player collects gear which can be used to pass various obstacles. However, gear items often have many uses, not all of which will be immediately obvious.[2] The design does not typically engage in hand-holding, but rather encourages out-of-the-box thinking."

The haters are trying to claim that Thor didn't actually solve the puzzles, despite there being an 83 hour stream (over the course of days) of him doing exactly that.

[stoic zealot]

I kinda tired of all the dumb people posting crap on twitter every time he makes a post . . .like . . .do these people have anything in their life???

[lunar fog]

https://tenor.com/rISr.gif

[indigo wadi]

Here's a fix.

Stop going on twitter/

[stoic zealot]

no, because shaye posts ferrets!

[tribal ether]

very valid reason escapes to lurkdom again

[strange flume]

Twitter is a cess pool but still has one of the biggest reaches for a social media so good people will still use it. Since I dont benefit financely from it, I can leave it and just use reddit when needed.

[bronze pier]

Shaye is the main reason I don't kill my twitter account

[strange flume]

Sam Harris has a good talk on leaving twitter an why it's a good thing

[jolly sky]

If I was that invested about being there for the Ferrets but nothing else, I'd just browse something like Xcancel instead

[thick ledge]

my favorite part is people trying to claim thor didnt spend 83 hours on it

when, his steam literally says he did

"BUT TWITCH TRACKER SAYS 40!"

like, and?

[bronze pier]

I was there watching it!

[thick ledge]

same

its nutty

no guides existed, worst case someone in the chat was tapped into the solving discord and dropping hints in the chat

like WORST possible case

[jolly sky]

Also same, it was basically all he did for like, 5 days lmao

[arctic hearth]

i mean thor loves conspiracys, now he has become one xD

[lapis wind]

He may have streamed some of it while still in the Game Dev category. That would account for the discrepancy.

[livid nebula]

people are crazy

[thick ledge]

@bronze pier psst

shaye has a bluesky

[stone nacelle]

hmm vods are on yt

wish yt let you have longer vods

[hasty egret]

hi

[thick ledge]

I actually did the math on it, scrubbed every vod, only 30 hours of the 80 hour playthrough exist

The interview with the dev is completely lost, not in the super cut or vods

[stone nacelle]

aw

[thick ledge]

We still don't do very thorough archival work with streams

Could probably do better in that regard

[golden mirage]

I don't stream but I remember Thor saying twitch has a built in video editor that can do a lot of basic functions. I wonder if it could automatically split any stream over 12 hours into 2 then Thor/mod could send the second part to YT. If not I know its possible to download the twitch vod, edit it in any video editor then upload to YT. Thor could probably write a script to automate that.

But having a human element in there to pick the best point to split might be better.

[vague palm]

Or you could turn off VODs on YT and just upload the whole thing from Twitch

[golden mirage]

That would lose any stored YT chat though.

[vague palm]

Oh true.

That would be a problem.

[sand crown]

This whole “cheating” in animal well debacle is stupid, it’s a single player game

[dry osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OL88YdeZ6Yc Just because people love it

[untold aurora]

The point the haters are trying to make is that Thor tries to make himself look smarter than he actually is by looking up the solutions to puzzles and getting help from chat before claiming he solved everything on his own. Which is obvious bovine manure, but that's what the haters are arguing.

[sand crown]

Snrkt wow how sad

[untold aurora]

What does snrkt mean?

[sand crown]

Snort noise

An onomatopoeia

[untold aurora]

Thanks, new word added to the dictionary 🙂

[sand crown]

Np

[serene valley]

They're basically trying to pain his character as dishonest because he would misrepresent how he got to the solutions, by assuming it's easier to cheat rather than that he can just solve the puzzles

And "if he cheated there, where else hasn't he cheated?"

Which yea

[untold aurora]

When it's actually harder to cheat and hide it from thousands of people watching you than to just solve stuff by yourself

[serene valley]

It's all stupid baseless nonsense

[untold aurora]

Ironically, if he did cheat, he would have done it in a way that would prove immense skill, defeating the point that he's not as good as it seems.

[serene valley]

lol

Either way it seems to have died down a bit now so eh

People have other stuff to worry about now ig

[untold aurora]

Not to mention there are also accusations of narcissism, but I'm rewatching the Outer Wilds long play, and there are parts of it that a narcissist would have edited out of the video. All the dummy moments like ||forgetting to put on the space suit|| or ||not figuring out that there's an autopilot for 6 hours straight||

[bronze pier]

Thor's in the Ferret room right now...rare sighting this time of day...

[ocean agate]

Thor is the one who posted playtime in the ferret stream

i think he is in charge of playtime right now

[bronze pier]

Shaye's there, mostly out of camera site

[ocean agate]

yeah i noticed they where there just a bit ago at the top

[lethal ocean]

This is his normal start stream time

[ocean agate]

he would start stream in an hour normaly

he is just up early

or didnt sleep

[lethal ocean]

I’m used to him starting stream at this hr.

[ocean agate]

it might have shifted based on if you do the hole daylight savings crap thing, not sure where you live

[lethal ocean]

Oh yeah maybe since the change happend just on November

[golden mirage]

daylight savings, perhaps the most irritating modern day evil thing.

[ocean agate]

true

[clever wave]

We legit don't need daylight savings anymore

We only had it to assist farmers (for some reason I forgot)

But now with all this advanced tech and whatnot

WE DON'T NEED IT ANYMORE.

OkeeOkee enough of me misusing streamchat, time to go to general

[floral scroll]

a daylight saved is a daylight earned

[sterile eagle]

so, thor is unaware that AoC is down? or just wrong title

[forest glacier]

@minor nymph @weary nebula yarrBongos the 19 monther secured! yarrBongos

(love how I still dont have the role that was stripped a week after the resub purchase went through LOL)

[floral scroll]

good morning world

[flint lynx]

ohhhh ok I made it to the stream; looking forward to the curse votes today!

[pseudo bough]

ah man that's a shame!

[shrewd quiver]

https://pally.dev/p/piratesoftware/tip
they changed the domain?
edited so noone accidently clicking it.

[rain widget]

weird... but it does seem that .dev does work 🤔

unclear whether it can be trusted though

[shrewd quiver]

yeah whois of pally.dev is different to pally.pp

[chrome dirge]

did you guys make a website to fish Thor?

[shrewd quiver]

who is you? but yeah looks phishy. same registration provider though

[rain hazel]

He mentioned on Sunday that Pally had been sold to another company so might be why the whois is different for the domain

[shrewd quiver]

what puzzles me, if they sold it why didn't they notify everyone?

[rotund karma]

https://youtu.be/TvNEZ4WWQIk?si=vAE5W2gfs_9ItWrt

[violet kelp]

also, it's a single player game and he wasn't doing a speed run. there was nothing competitive about how he played the game. so why does it even matter in the first place.

[terse pelican]

That's the thing, It doesn't matter, But people want any reason to hate on Thor.

[rocky venture]

There you go.

[forest glacier]

*checks

it didnt work

Twitch is even still showing me the subscribe button as if im not subscribed. it in my purchase history and I just got the button to share it today

[rocky venture]

Interdasting.

[forest glacier]

interpasting

[tribal nest]

It's because some people think that Thor thinks he's way smarter than he actually is (because they get insecure from the way he talks or some bs), so they're looking for anything they can point at to indicate he's actually really stupid and far inferior to the genius of the regular Reddit user /s (meanwhile, that "idiot" managed to get three Defcon Black Badgers)

[forest glacier]

intertasting

[tribal nest]

Intersparsing

[forest glacier]

interfarting

[flint lynx]

intraresting

[tribal nest]

Intersharting

[rocky venture]

Agreed. People don't like that they are spoken with "authority".

[shrewd quiver]

yeah and even when you are smart, mistakes happen. nobody is perfect

period

nothing to be blamed for

[tender echo]

And also people take one bad thing about a person, and make it like it's their personality and ignore everything else.
Also I've seen numerous claims that Thor is deleting comments, or is hiding from the allegations (despite him responding to it, and he has not deleted anything, he got alot of hate in the comment sections that are there for days now, yet he's "deleting comments"

[rocky venture]

I bet the "smarter" you are, the more stupid you feel daily. But yeah, totally agreed. Nobody is ever perfect and it's a long road for those people to understand it later in their life that this is the way it is.

[shrewd quiver]

looking back at my 10year past I feel like I was incredibly stupid (and it still happens - constant learning)

[rocky venture]

You'd need to stop in your tracks while streaming to go through all the things you've ever said if you never want to make a mistake, and still you would as someone will take the things out of context, since it means completely different thing for them as it does for Thor as example.

Quite a stream that would be.

"Wait a minute, I'll check out how I said it in the past times."

[azure knoll]

arts and crafts for those interested

i regret not spray painting him tooth color before i put the teeth on

would have looked better

maybe a Chewsday v2 sometime in the future, i still have more teeth

[rocky venture]

Oh, it's chewsday.

I don't know how I feel about this. Solid mane.

[forest glacier]

THANK YOU!! I MISSED CHEWSDAY!! Thor has a photo on his old PC, I remember it well!

[sacred junco]

Part of this has a reason I think. Thor did delete comments that are violating YouTube TOS (hate speech, harassing comments etc), and he publicly stated that during the SKG fiasco, using YT's auto filter tool for that. Probably the source for this claim, but I don't know if he's using that filter now during the wow drama.
https://www.reddit.com/r/PirateSoftware/comments/1emajar/comment/lh02cnw/
it's like whatever at this point, this shit died down for the most part 🤷

[flint lynx]

I missed the very beginning of the stream, did Thor say at what time will the cursed quest voting will be?

[ashen fog]

missed it too, but you could check the vod

[golden mirage]

I don't recall him saying a time.

[flint lynx]

hmmm yep just went to the vod and skimmed the part i missed, he didn't mention anything about it, only the pally stuff

[wanton stump]

Im just so frustrated how much people are willing to take vague vibes at face value

"He must have cheated at those puzzles because they are really hard and he looked at his phone right before that"

[unreal river]

I morbidly wanna see some of these deleted msgs in the twitch chat lol

[wanton stump]

Okay and? Thats not evidence of anything, thats paranoia

[unreal river]

I saw one BIG paragraph go poof and I'm curious what it was lol

[wanton stump]

"But it took people in a community working together to figure it out" okay and it took thor 20 hours streaming it with chat to figure it out

They cant prove that he was cheating but if you try to tell them this they call you a shill

Its pure vibes and I hate it

[distant escarp]

Did I miss the talk about pally? I have the stream in the background during my sleep. Can’t see if I imagined it or not 😅

[long pilot]

fun fact: if you're on desktop and have 7TV installed, you can sometimes see mod-deleted messages. 99% of the time it's people being arseholes or bots that slipped past autofilters. Mod Logs, next to settings.

[unreal river]

Ohhhh! I forgot about that add-on can do that stuff. Cheers!

[terse pelican]

TLDR: Website keeps giving error, Somehow it was sold, Thor feels that it's sketchy and disabled/Removed everything related to it

[long pilot]

Pirate Software (@PirateSoftware) on X

What is going on with @pallygg? We use this to split donations with our mods but none of us can access the interface right now. It's been this way for weeks and nobody seems to know what is going on.

Payouts are still happening currently but this looks sketchy as hell.

X · Jan 21, 2025, 7:40 AM

[flint lynx]

• also he's looking into having it be done in house in the future (khronos is currently tasked with the estimates for that)

[distant escarp]

Thanks. I talked to a mod about it and proposed help. Would be a nice project to code on stream and stuff 🙂

[unreal river]

It's hilarious that someone will waste their time to type out offensive stuff in twitch chat but won't even say the actual word XD

Like you're going to get banned anyways why not just commit to the bit? lol

[grand sequoia]

hey guys have any of you seen the animal well vid on thor by albino?

[tribal nest]

I do love how everyone in chat is just ignoring those people now. They type some weird shit, their comment gets refused, and not a single person replied, amazing.

[unreal river]

that's usually the best way to have your community react

[grand sequoia]

am i saying weird shit?

wha

[tribal nest]

no, was talking about trolls being weird in Twitch Chat

[unreal river]

we're talking about twitch chat i believe

[grand sequoia]

phew

[dusky grove]

Nah not you, just a coincidence of timing

[unreal river]

this is the chat regarding the stream

fyi

[tribal nest]

and it's also become the 'drama' chat for the last few days

[unreal river]

that's the best way for a community to treat that kinda stuff imo. don't give 'em attention. have the mods delete/ban and everyone move on.

[grand sequoia]

ive seen some of the drama and the only one i got questions abt is why would he watch guides pre stream? like i dont care but its just weird

the WoW thing is sooooo overblown

id run too lmao

[unreal river]

i mean there's nothing wrong with reading guides

not everything has to be blind

even if he did it wouldn't matter unless he said that he didn't when he did

[grand sequoia]

none of it maters

but im genuinely surprised that he saw a guide for animal well

[tribal nest]

I mean, he has always been pretty vocal about not using guides, because he feels like it spoils the fun of the game. Not accusing him or anything, just saying that he has confirmed that he never uses guides

[dusky grove]

I think the main thing people are griped about is the alleged fake reactions. During the vid thor has repeatedly stated that he doesn't look at guides and encourages chat to do the same.

That doesn't mean chat listens tho

[unreal river]

oh yah neither am I. just saying reading guides isn't an issue unless a streamer states that they don't read them but ended up being found doing so.

[tribal nest]

Chat? Listening? Don't be silly now

[grand sequoia]

i dont care if the reactions are fake and also i dont think they are, most guides dont show EVERY cool bit there is so its common to follow a guide and still like the game, what i dont like is that he just said "i have an idea!" every time

das just kinda weird

[dusky grove]

I think what it comes down to is this. People forget that even if thor himself doesn't look at guides, he was solving it with a chat of hundreds if not thousands of people, all it takes is a couple of chatters to look at a guide and post hints or answers in chat. Hence the oddly quick solutions, not factoring in how its an edited video

[grand sequoia]

yea that too

but if you saw something in chat

and for like 2-3 hours ur solving this thing

[dusky grove]

Not to mention, puzzles are kinda thor's wheelhouse. Dude loves breaking codes

[grand sequoia]

at least once say "ooh thanks random chatter"

[gaunt remnant]

All you need to know about those accusations: a "fair" take from a youtuber covering the topic accused him of lying about the 83h, saying he only did 41h. You just have to check Thor's Steam profile to know that he did play for 83h so it's still people grasping at straws to have drama where there isn't any

[dusky grove]

Maybe he did and it was cut out in the edit

[grand sequoia]

the windings shit was wild and looked super weird, he just did it so quickly

[unreal river]

Well hey now you know how you'll do things when you stream.

[grand sequoia]

maybe maybe, i didnt actually watch the 7 hr long play just albinos vid

[lapis wind]

[dusky grove]

Its been a while since i saw the animal well vid, was it actually the usual wingdings font that everyone has, or was it a proprietary symbol list that we just call wingdings

Cuz if it was the former, thats not hard to reverse

[lapis wind]

the windings shit was wild and looked super weird, he just did it so quickly

i didnt actually watch the 7 hr long play just albinos vid

Dude

[grand sequoia]

thats why im not calling him out on anything?

[gaunt remnant]

Even just watching the longplay wouldn't give you all the info, it's heavily edited down from dozens and dozens of hours of streaming

[grand sequoia]

i understand my lack of knowledge abt this

[lapis wind]

even the long play is cut WAAAAY down

[grand sequoia]

thats why im here

[dusky grove]

Here's the thing with edited down cuts of a puzzle game, most of what gets cut out is the process of solving the puzzles

[grand sequoia]

but i do still have one thing abt him that i didnt quite get

[dusky grove]

Nobody wants to watch 1 hour on an edited yt vid of "Hmmm... no that didnt work.... hmmm no that didnt work..."

You don't see markiplier's hours on hours of failed fnaf runs on max difficulty

[grand sequoia]

ppl said abt his ego and that just kinda does check out, like i do not remember anytime he said i did that and this bad, ill do better

again i might just not know enough

but like ive never noticed that before

and now it kinda do be making sense

[dusky grove]

Nor the hours of reset a speedrunner has before they get the perfect seed

[tribal nest]

He has said that multiple times though

[grand sequoia]

can i get one point towards a place where he has?

[gaunt remnant]

If Thor uploaded those parts, people wouldn't call him out on how fast he solved the puzzle but how a 3 defcon badges hackerman couldn't solve those puzzles quicker. I would bet on that

[tribal nest]

Two days ago during the announcement that he will be updating Heartbound montly, he repeatedly said he was a sack of shit for not communicating enough

[grand sequoia]

genuinely asking, again im not here to talk shit

[grand sequoia]

there we go

now im happy

like i knew the drama was overblown, but i just needed that one nudge in support of him

he's still an awesome dud for motivating so many ppl to make games

also the jams are great

not to mention the #jam-lfg

[lapis wind]

He also said he made mistakes during the DM run, they all did apart from the healer (what Thor said)... but people for some reason wanted him to grovel and take ALL the blame

[gaunt remnant]

While playing PoE these days he's been asking chat a lot of questions about the game saying he doesn't know or understands a lot of mechanics in it yet

[dusky grove]

If this is about the wow thing about him not taking accountability or apologizing after that raid...

There have been other runs where his group has died, and after he'd go something like "oh I'm sorry for you. Things went bad, we all could've done something different and maybe that coulda let you live. Go again bud, we'll be waiting"

The only time he stopped and stood his ground is when he was getting blasted by yamato and ozzy

[lapis wind]

Look at how often Thor will say "no you are" when people say he's awesome in TTS, that's not a sign of ego

[dusky grove]

Its reciprication of tone. Be respectful and he's respectful. Be a douche and he's not gonna give you a second of his time

[grand sequoia]

ehhh no thats not really an admission of fault but im already happy with him

[tribal nest]

and now yamato is getting absolutely blasted by the rest of the Undead, what comes around...

[grand sequoia]

hope i was not seen as a drama goblin during this convo :3

[dusky grove]

Oh I want details

[gaunt remnant]

That kinda is when he's accused of faking runs of games to make himself look smarter and all knowing

[dusky grove]

Nah. To be human is to be curious and you were very respectful

[golden mirage]

In a year of watching Thor, the only arrogance or ego he's ever shown is in the face of disrespect and abusive behavior. He knows his worth and he's not going to take s**t from some rando.

[dusky grove]

Also, back to the animal well thing. The final egg puzzle. It's a very long sequence of musical notes. If he really was cheating and looking up a guide, he 100% would not have messed up THAT puzzle. That puzzle is soooo long

But he did

And had to do the whole thing over

[tribal nest]

There's apparently a rule within the undead that you must give all loot to the warleader (don't know the exact details), and yamato was caught keeping loot. When he was called out for it, he still refused to give it. Because he broke the rules, the warleader called for an Undead vote to execute yamato's character, after which yamato said he was taking it too far, to which the warleader said that he either give the loot right not, or they vote for execution (and hearing how other people were talking, the results were already clear). Don't know how it turned out, but it's clear others are also tired of his shit

[dusky grove]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-holt-brooklyn-nine-nine-brooklyn99-captain-raymond-holt-andre-braugher-gif-13945912

[gaunt remnant]

From what I heard ppl were already tired of his shit on LoL before OF

[tribal nest]

doesn't surpise me at all

[tribal nest]

Also, of course the LSF losers were taking yamato's side during this

[dusky grove]

Yknow. Since tryndamere was in OF, i kinda hope his LoL account has some kind of punishment for toxicity. I know its super unlikely, but a goblin can dream

[unreal river]

I gotta admit hearing you lot talk about being being on OF, knowing both the terms, is rather amusing lol

It'd be so hilarious to call out an ingame troll by saying they had to sell things on OF to buy lootboxes or something XD

"Your mom had to start an OF for you to get those skins!"

[dusky grove]

Well, its just kinda cathartic to talk about it now that all the drama is behind us

[toxic jacinth]

I agree ☝️

[gaunt remnant]

Yamato's behavior is the typical reddit dweller behavior. Argue to your death about anything and everything even if it doesn't matter. Thor did the sensible thing to leave the convvo

[unreal river]

The logic some ppl use in the chat is hilarious (the trolls) a few ppl starting up saying oh thor doesn't let ppl critisize him but he does others. I mean he was talking about Elon and Elon has been a walking meme/troll post for years now.

I'm sure Thor is okay with critisizm but it gotta be constructive!

[gaunt remnant]

So ofc they followed him, they identify with him

I saw Yamato argue in text with Asmon on stream after the events and he managed to make Asmon look like the responsible adult, which says a lot

[dusky grove]

Yamato seems young tbh. Like mid to late teens judging by behavior

Trying to be the next tyler 1. Just needs a permaban now

[viscid kraken]

We dont need to shit talk other creators here

[grand sequoia]

damn. that makes a lot of sense, im pretty sure ive heard that from somewhere before but i needed to hear this again

[viscid kraken]

Leave them to their own choices, we vibin' in here

[grand sequoia]

oh hai khronos :3

[arctic needle]

[forest glacier]

https://tenor.com/view/teo-cat-vibe-gif-24184240

[dusky grove]

Fair point khronos

[viscid kraken]

All these bans etc are just people who cant think critically, leaving the community

[grand sequoia]

btw how long are the bans?

[viscid kraken]

Nothing of value was lost

A ban is permanent

[grand sequoia]

damn

[viscid kraken]

Anything non-TOS but obviously designed to be hate is up to a 14 day timeout

[dusky grove]

They can try to appeal iirc if they yknow... behave

[rain hazel]

ban also means you don't get access to greggs

[tribal nest]

[grand sequoia]

were there banwords or was everyone that got banned personally checked to see if they actually said some stupid shit?

[forest glacier]

now thats cruel and unusual

[grand sequoia]

cuz i think its kinda stupid to put a perma ban on a banword

[tribal nest]

Does that means Thor got banned?

[gaunt remnant]

Sorry, was voicing my opinion of him and I can get a little heated when I do

[dusky grove]

We brought individus to the mods' attention here in discord

[grand sequoia]

prisoners are treated better

[tribal nest]

Because he can't get Greggs

[grand sequoia]

but was it a banword? cuz i heard it was a banword and i just wanna make sure

[rain hazel]

He can get Greggs... just has to visit Khronos for them though

[grand sequoia]

like managen or smth like that

[dusky grove]

On twitch probably. Cuz it was just trolls saying em

Twitch has its own ban appeal system

[grand sequoia]

damn i hope they unban the ppl that got AOE'd

[feral iris]

Basically there are usually keywords that get flagged like slurs or just people coming in to be toxic, if it's nothing so bad it's most likely just a timeout

[brittle rune]

We do

[viscid kraken]

I have personally processed 4354 unban requests in the past 10 days and unbanned anyone who was

[flint yarrow]

Geez

[tribal nest]

Damn

[gaunt remnant]

If you look at the banned comments on Twitch, it's really a lot of bot behavior from people first time chatting saying words to try and "trigger" Thor but all they do is pollute chat

[grand sequoia]

like if someone said "whats this thing ppl are talking about mana gen" and gets INSTA perma banned

[feral iris]

Although there have been a lot of bans lately due to the dumbies that are toxic

[dusky grove]

Yeah we had some peeps catch stray bans. The unban requests on twitch saved em

[grand sequoia]

WHOA

ive not met that many ppl

[dusky grove]

Yeah. Mods earn their pay here

Best mods around

[feral iris]

The mods are amazing

Like genuinely

[flint yarrow]

Still no bread

[viscid kraken]

I had to earn my extra 0.04% on pally

[dusky grove]

AHAHA

[flint yarrow]

Are pally issues resolved? I heard it was weird after being bought

[dusky grove]

Dw, first mate khronos. You'll get yer hardtack back

[grand sequoia]

wasnt doubting that :3

[dusky grove]

They plan on making an in-house version

[gaunt remnant]

These past weeks must have been tiring mentally for you guys. Just seeing all the hate in chat made me feel bad

[dusky grove]

In the meatime, currently no way to tip the mods

[grand sequoia]

has anyone made a game abt breading the mods?

[grand sequoia]

tuer

[dusky grove]

... i saw the 1st 3 letters and was comcerned

[gaunt remnant]

It really puts into perspective how tough it is to be a mod mental health-wise

[feral iris]

Cas I swear

[brittle rune]

It's not always easy, but I'm glad we're here to take care of it before you're exposed to the rough stuff

[flint yarrow]

Dr Chat prescribes permanent second monitor ferrets for mod mental health after all this

[feral iris]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-496001393010401237

my honest reaction to that information

[dusky grove]

I've been in a weird headspace the past few days, but i've vented enough about that in gen chat

[wintry pond]

is solo leveling adaptation good? I did read it all, but never watched it

[dusky grove]

I've heard good things

But its subjective at the end o the day

[feral iris]

heard some mixed stuff it's subjective

[sterile eagle]

idk, works for me

[viscid kraken]

It is Wildly inconsistent

[flat moat]

Unhealthily so

[sterile eagle]

also, Khronos skimming from the top lol

[tribal nest]

oh, so that's what he was referencing

[sullen summit]

I love that the mods do such a good job that we barely notice their work, and in fact their best work is when we don't notice them at all.... To the mods, you people rock! Thanks 🙂

[dusky grove]

The mods are like a good audio engineer. The better they do, the more you're able to miss their existence

[wintry pond]

that boss is hard for non minions, was stuck with my sorc on him for a while

[sullen summit]

btw why is the audio so quite, copyright?

[wintry pond]

audio is fine

[dusky grove]

Might be you. Check volume settings or headphones stuff

[sullen summit]

I mean compared to Thors mic volume which is massive.

[wintry pond]

also game has to be lower then the streamer

its intended

[sullen summit]

ah ok

[wintry pond]

you should always be able to hear the streamer, no matter what happens in the game

[sullen summit]

and yes I get it's intended. Just currious to the whole why. Just intended to be above the game just cause, ok. 🙂

[wanton stump]

I get what you mean, but looking weird and it being weird are different things

[grand sequoia]

ik

[wanton stump]

I watched those streams as they were coming out, and all his reasonings made sense

It looked organic to me

Its also something that cant be proven or disproven and relies exclusively on vibes

And I need more than that to take it seriously

Saying that its unlikely that thor solved it by himself is true, but also doesnt disprove that he did or prove that he didnt

So the people who wanna be mad at him will be mad and theres nothing you can do to change their mind, and if you try they will accuse you of being parasocial

Complete discussion dead end

[grand sequoia]

also albino called him a nepo baby and i dont agree with that and also that is rude

[grand sequoia]

yus

[wanton stump]

I was very disapointed with the albino video, I liked his stuff, that video was really bad

[grand sequoia]

yea

but he is more of an anger streamer so ig it fits him

[wanton stump]

And the comments are just droves of people saying that they love having a good reason to hate thor now which says a lot about the kind of people that are taking this at face value

[wanton stump]

Yeah I get it as well, still a bit of a disapointment

[grand sequoia]

why cant ppl just be happy and accepting of other peoples flaws and not actively try to find a reason to hate someone

do ppl actually like feeling hate for someone?

idk i feel bad when i hate anyone

also it takes like a shit ton of mental energy to be fully truly angry at someone

[wanton stump]

Theres something else thats more personally upsetting that Thor is dealing with

And thats the people saying hes a knowitall and has a massive ego simply because he is confident and assertive when he speaks

Which is something I have been called my entire life for being autistic

[grand sequoia]

an autistic person with confidence?? yall are real??

[candid grove]

Oh shoot I made a mistake. Someone brought up the Thor drama on r/OutOfTheLoop and there was an "explanation" listing only the accusations. I answered to extend the viewpoints from the other side and with stuff like SKG suggested to watch Thor's video to get his actual point and not just that he "opposes it", and now I'm getting downvoted of course.

[grand sequoia]

btw

[wanton stump]

And seeing all these people just turn on someone they didnt like already because of these vibes I have seen being projected onto me my entire life is seriously depressing

[grand sequoia]

reddit moment

reddit is always a slop hole, it just sometimes intentionally or unintentionally may seem like its not

btw are u participating in the jam?

[worthy ivy]

reddit is great provided you always remember you are on reddit 🙂

[grand sequoia]

exactly

[slow island]

same

[wanton stump]

Great? Possibly, if the stars and planets are aligned that day. Useful? For sure

[candid grove]

I wish I learned stuff for it earlier, but I will join the next one and will use the time until then to gain confidence and learn about tools, methods etc! 😄

[worthy ivy]

useful = great - I loves useful things

[wanton stump]

I like to look at reddit as more of a tool than a social media platform and that helps my life immensily

[slow island]

All you can ever do in life is play to your strengths, find what you are really good at and do that

[golden latch]

“The tools are rebelling”

[wanton stump]

But yeah its just really upsetting to see this unfold again, for nth time, while also feeling so personally connected to it that I cant stop looking

It all just sucks

[grand sequoia]

i will be the most acoustic person ever, none shall stand before the power of me tism

[wanton stump]

My autism will block out the sun

[grand sequoia]

YOOO

THATS THE STICK

THE stick

[wanton stump]

It will be a wave crashing upon the world, bringing death and destruction wherever it touches

[candid grove]

yeah, I really hate how people throw around stuff like "selfish" and "narcistic person" when they don't know, or just ignore the charities and the ferret rescue and many other stuff. Sure, you can dislike Thor for this drama and the personality traits he has/you perceive he has, but calling him stuff he is not because of the lack of knowledge of the whole person... so annoying

[candid grove]

Oooooh what a fine weapon!

[wanton stump]

Phenomenal find

[slow island]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/jM7Vm-q2Pvk

[wanton stump]

Its worse because I feel like I have to defend him in my social groups because Im basically defending myself and my issues

[wanton stump]

Its awful

[grand sequoia]

am i weird for still liking yo mama jokes

[wanton stump]

Never apoligize for what brings you joy

[candid grove]

but then again. They are free to dislike him and ignore his content. Calling him out, accusing him of stuff he is not.... so stupid, so disgusting....

[slow island]

what brings me joy are p-cons

[wanton stump]

Yeah its just... a lot

[candid grove]

I also want to try limit social media / news for myself, because recent world events are... a lot and I feel it on my mental health too but at the same time I don't want to be ignorant and uninformed on what's happening

[wanton stump]

I really dont wanna be parasocial about it but my brain is screaming at me with anxiety all day because of this

[grand sequoia]

the internet is a dumpster and people are gasoline

[wanton stump]

So its really tough to not get parasocial with it

[slow island]

do you guys like p-con's?

[wanton stump]

Same here, decades keep happening in weeks and I just want some normal ass time

[wanton stump]

I dont know what that is

[candid grove]

I feel a ligma is coming

[slow island]

p-con deez nuts

[lapis wind]

Ligma

Yep

[candid grove]

you really walked into that one

[wanton stump]

Deserved

You got me in a vulnerable state, well earned

I will now dedicate my life to destroying you and everything you have ever loved and held dear

[candid grove]

Just write a reddit post about him and I will talk shit as well to support you

[wanton stump]

This bond shall be stronger than the finest steel

[grand sequoia]

they need to say p-con to get ligmad and also ||you lost the game||

[slow island]

I mean that game is so old I won that one a long time ago

[grand sequoia]

you woulda thunk that but no, you just lost it

[slow island]

fair enough, so what's everyone up to today?

[grand sequoia]

game jam

and procrastinating it rn

[candid grove]

just do 3 minutes of it

[wanton stump]

Im trying and failing to focus on my master's thesis

[candid grove]

and stop if you can't do it, but maybe you will get rolling 💪

[slow island]

yeah I joined one a while back. Then life got hectic and as much as I hate that guy on the team who does next to nothing, this time around I had to be that guy. Felt so bad don't really want to do that again 😓

[wanton stump]

Man I feel that

Its sucks when you become the lazy one dragging the team down but its also just how group projects work sometimes

We all have our own lives to live after all

[grand sequoia]

im the lead programmer and am just under constant pressure to get the skeleton of the game working that i dread starting it

but im getting better

i think*

[wanton stump]

Then dont think of it like that

Do something real basic

[grand sequoia]

but it IS that

[wanton stump]

Well yeah, and if you wanna climb a mountain, you are climbing a whole mountain

But you dont think of the mountain, you think of the steps you take to get to the top

Do a really easy thing

Just to get in the groove

Just a moving square or a platform

[candid grove]

Impostor syndrome in programming is crazy though

[wanton stump]

Anything

[grand sequoia]

im not puting a task of "make the game" im already breaking it up into "figure out how to do X so that Y can be built later on top of that" and X is really hard and its my first time making it

[grand sequoia]

IKR

[slow island]

I'm reminded of the time I started modding Skyrim, giving everything 4k textures and making it super pretty. I like the idea of world building, 3D and effects. Probably why I'm so drawn in by UE5. Every update is mindblowing.

[wanton stump]

Okay then subdivide X further or do something else

[grand sequoia]

like i NEED others to remind me im not shit to actually even get that idea

[grand sequoia]

it was ONE formula 💀

[wanton stump]

And?

[slow island]

There's imposter syndrome in every profession I think, I'm supposed to be that guy who calls up doctors and tell them they are wrong, imagine.

[grand sequoia]

i just needed to figure out how to use it

[wanton stump]

I once procrastinated writting a single sentence for 6 months

[grand sequoia]

it was simple in reality its just that im scared to start

[wanton stump]

It doesnt matter how big or small it actually is, all that matters is your perception

[grand sequoia]

oof

[wanton stump]

You are probably afraid that you are gonna mess up

[grand sequoia]

not really

thats the problem idk what im scared of

[slow island]

Have you guys ever had burnout? I know a really good fix for it.

[grand sequoia]

yes

its ass

never overwork

[wanton stump]

If you are anything like me, the idea that you arent competent at something scares the shit out of you

And its easier to just not do it than finding out for sure that you suck at something

[grand sequoia]

Ye dat

[wanton stump]

Well heres the thing: Nobody is competent at anything when they first try it

Thats the whole point

[worthy ivy]

I lost my impostor syndrome after the third company I worked at - I realised there's no adults in the room above middle management

he said generalising horribly 🙂

not all managers

[wanton stump]

You are gonna struggle and you are gonna make really dumb and basic mistakes

[grand sequoia]

i know, but its an irrational fear

[slow island]

burnout happens when the outcome of your work isn't being felt. i.e. you fix the animations of your character, bam that's awesome I did a thing. Coding some stuff without seeing any results leads to the fatigue, you need to set yourself a small enough goal and win it.

[grand sequoia]

and the way to beat is to just do it

[wanton stump]

And that doesnt mean you are dumb or that you were never actually good, and youve just tricked everyone into thinking you know how to do things

It just means you are human, and you are learning how to do something

[slow island]

I like that, similar to the "pretend everyone is naked" in public speaking

[wanton stump]

And learning is always acompanied by failure

Dont hide from it

Embrace it

Do dumb things

Make really basic mistakes

Let yourself be bad at something

Cause thats the first step of being good at something

[grand sequoia]

yes, completly

but

counter argument

[wanton stump]

Yeah I know

[grand sequoia]

FNF weekend do be kinda fun

[slow island]

Make a list of small enough goals that you know you can achieve within a few hours, put the shortest 1 at the top. So before you've even had lunch you've got stuff done and feel pretty good about that.

[wanton stump]

I can say whatever I want its not really gonna take away your fear

[grand sequoia]

GDD is very good for that

[wanton stump]

How do you treat fear then?

You expose yourself to it

You rationally observe yourself and talk to your brain so you can make your irrational thoughts into rational ones

Why is it bad that I am struggling with this? What scary about not being good at something?

[slow island]

Saying things out loud can be a massive help, your ears are a great filter for problem solving, better than your internal thoughts

[wanton stump]

Reflect on these questions, use the socratic method even

[worthy ivy]

I don't think of work stuff as 'real life' so I just get stuff done and wing it when I need - had horrible impostor syndrome because I was well aware I was just winging it

then I found out eberyone was...

*everyone

[wanton stump]

Figure out what it is thats so scary about it

Why the idea of being mediocre or bad at something is so unbearable for you

Getting to the bottom of that will teach you a lot about who you are and what you value

Its not easy, it took me a long while to get there myself

But there is an answer

You just have to look

Grab the fear, hold it in your head, and analyse it

Ask it questions

Probe it

[slow island]

Or be afraid of fear itself

[candid grove]

@grand sequoia Drink some tea or coffee, or just a nice glass of water, clean your desk and mentally prepare, then put in some music and just try getting started. If you don't progress for 10 minutes, try later, but maybe it wouldn't be that bad after you get going 🙂

[flint yarrow]

Currently in a second year of evening school classes that will culminate in a degree called something like bachelor professional of trade and commerce which is basically a stepping stone into more management oriented roles. Impostor syndrome hit hard till I realized a lot of bosses I had are less qualified to do that job than I am at this point.

[weary vault]

What’s with this guy in chat going on about wanting mods replaced with ai, calling them “obsolete.” Toxic af

[candid grove]

brainrot

[weary vault]

1000%

[wintry pond]

umm did twitch go down or is it me?

[tribal nest]

just you

[wintry pond]

ok fixed

[indigo wadi]

What up chatterinos

[sand cloak]

Glad to see the discord looks mostly back to normal lol

[inland bramble]

Yeah, it's crazy that people are still trying to start shit

[fading zealot]

it still astounds me that people did all this just because of a video game

like if it affects you this much you need professional help

[opaque zealot]

Stream is getting better too

Saying that a fresh wave just came through lol

[fading zealot]

lol you spoke it and it matiralized lol

[weary vault]

I can’t believe he manifested it into existence

[indigo wadi]

Oh lord what now?

[scarlet tide]

just a normal bot wave like he's always had

[indigo wadi]

Ah

[sand cloak]

I am only seeing it on the tik toks anymore. Looks like the internet has almost moved on.

Pulling up the stream and I am like Wow, Diablo 4 is looking kinda good right now… did they do an update!?

Proceeds to read the actual stream description….

[tribal nest]

At least you didn't ask in chat what game he was playing

[sand cloak]

I get why people do that on tik tok, but on twitch thats just a reading problem lol

[lucid aspen]

i try too solo runs phasmophobia on Intermediate
"The standard Ghost Huntin' experience"

i did once prof and had a oni she was not nice did a ghost event front in me face i wasnt 10min in game yet xD

[inland bramble]

Said something that sounded funnier in my head than it came across, got automod banned 😦 Hopefully unban queue isn't too long

[stoic zealot]

one what did you say

two, after the 3 days of drama there gonna being a bit of a back log unless the mods got though that already

[inland bramble]

eh joked about the microphone covering the "voice changer" when there was talk of the microphone covering his face. Fully understand the ban giving what's been going down. Was a dumb joke to make.

[sand cloak]

Yeah sarcasm can be challenging over text

[inland bramble]

Yeah

[tribal nest]

eh, seems fine to me, you'd probably be fine if you said it like two weeks ago

[inland bramble]

Yeah, bad timing doesn't help lol

[tribal nest]

But apparently they do get through the unban requests pretty quickly. Kronos has actually gone through more than 4000 in just the last 3 days

[sand cloak]

As an IT guy who works tickets all day every day I cant imagine the backlog is THAT bad at this point.

But maybe they took yesterday off lol

I did!

[indigo wadi]

Yeah the internet health bar lasted roughly a week.

[indigo wadi]

Probably best to avoid joking about that

[exotic forge]

I used to work on IT tickets and most of them are a breeze to go through

[inland bramble]

Yeah and probably any of the other sensitive subjects as well , especially for the time being

[junior briar]

We have meatball again!

[lime vine]

what the hell why are people now digging up his fursona and why are people mad at over animal well???

Nope i genuinely dont know if i should be scared or be disgusted now

[lime vine]

ball the meat!

[junior briar]

Just don't engage and ignore.

[lime vine]

Yeah have been doing that for a few days

after i got called being dense by some random.

[junior briar]

Time is too precious to be wasted on such silly fights.

[serene valley]

Wait there's a fursona?

👀

[jolly sky]

A fursona that doesn't exist I might add, as Thor has said on multiple occasions that he isn't a furry

Not that it even mattered if he was

[lime vine]

Even if he had one i wouldn't really mind it :/

[jolly sky]

Just more baseless lying and accusations from incredibly neurotic and hateful people

[lime vine]

didnt get enough attention from their parents.

also i like your pfp

reminds me of like newgrounds

no idea why

[jolly sky]

Oh it's from a webcomic from Randowis

[serene valley]

Ah ok I was like secret lore?

[jolly sky]

Randowis draws the funniest faces

[lime vine]

oooh might check it out then

[jolly sky]

The face being pulled in particular is from a panel where his cat runs into his leg that has pins and needles lmao

[lime vine]

lol

yeah i need to check it out

[lime vine]

looks awesome already

[exotic forge]

The haters from WOW OnlyFangs are now making fake rumors about Thor cheating at Animal Well

[hollow yacht]

Meatball cam when

[lime vine]

Yeah. But i kind of expected the animal well thing to be a lie. The fursona thing i just found out about it now that its fake.

[lime vine]

meatballsoftware

[hollow yacht]

Get that cranky man his own chair, a fancy pillow, and a webcam and I’ll be there

[sand cloak]

Thats what I am saying lol, I cant imagine reading a post and maybe a request to unban takes THAT long once you hit a stride.

[wintry pond]

arent there vods still up on youtube? so cant people go look it up?

[sand cloak]

Not that I am complaining about it either, just speculating.

[gentle mortar]

ye, if you sum all the animal well streams, you get about 80 hours

checked it like yesterday

[sand cloak]

Just give the shit stirrers another week. Some dingle berries take longer to let go than others. Depriving them of attention is like depriving them of oxygen. They will fade out soon, the majority already moved on.

[gentle mortar]

It takes like a month for the most instense hate to dissapear

[blissful crescent]

I think instead of a fur suite Thor should get a bread suite.

https://tenor.com/view/bernd-das-brot-bernd-the-loaf-bread-loaf-jokel-gif-16750195

[gentle mortar]

We have armored banana

[blissful crescent]

[tribal nest]

Bernd das Brot my beloved

[split rover]

yooohoo hellow

[gentle mortar]

wassup

[jolly sky]

Not in their entirety. They're too old for Twitch to still have them up, and quite a few of the Animal Well streams lasted longer than Youtube allows vods for

11 hour and 55 mins is the max it keeps vods for.

I was just completing a work for some other streamer i made a vtuber model for a streamer to be

chat ded hehe

[gentle mortar]

oh shit, that's hard, i dont know much about vtuber modelling but i know layering can be really ass, hope it's going well

[split rover]

yeah i work on commision so no biggie

[gentle mortar]

also i really wonder what's favourite show, can't put a finger on it

[split rover]

idk

i would say dragon ball is my fav

[zealous frost]

Is Thor planning on anything but poe today?

[lime vine]

he said development coordination too

maybe i just missed it

[gentle mortar]

no, i meant the name with profile picture, just funny to me

How did this get put under the Automod review lmao

Chat was memeing about his first name

[gentle mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/owl-surprise-gif-25024558

[jolly sky]

Oh he just explained it

[keen lily]

Internet hate trains dying down it seems. Thor will be under scrutiny from here on though not that he cares haha. He's gained a rep as a top tier lolcow though so it will be easier to start-up again.

[mortal pollen]

ive seen this owl... he may think he is the longest...

[jolly sky]

yea I'm seeing significantly less banned messages thankfully

Also this channel has become less drama-filled

[keen lily]

I'm in the rare situation where i agree with a large part of the criticism but its such a nothing issue I don't care. 😆

[dusky grove]

I just saw a vid uploaded an hour ago about the wow situation...

[dusky grove]

It aint completely dead yet, unfortunately

[gentle mortar]

block it, it's just another person to have piece of the pie

[dusky grove]

I know

[gentle mortar]

And I believe because you were kinda active on the drama, algorithm picked up on it to show you more videos on it, teach it a lesson

[dusky grove]

Fair

Algorythm encourages ouroboros

[hasty grail]

break the cycle and become SNEK

[gentle mortar]

ye, snek indeed

[hasty grail]

[gentle mortar]

holy, many snek

[jolly sky]

The only Snek that matters; /s

https://dankpods.fandom.com/wiki/Frank_the_Snake

[indigo wadi]

It's in the dying throws

[indigo wadi]

What is even a lolcow

[jolly sky]

It's an internet word for someone who they feel only deserves to be laughed at. And not for their comedy or their own personal humour, but for "Point and laugh at this guy" reasons

[indigo wadi]

Oh lord

Literally high school nonsense

[jolly sky]

Yea its pretty sad for sure

[gentle mortar]

so just term for someone getting bullied and not bring anything legit to the conversation

[jolly sky]

Both for the person being laughed at, and for the people doing the laughing

[gentle mortar]

Such a irony

[hasty grail]

lolcow is VERY much an old term, in internet time

[indigo wadi]

Except Thor brings lots to the table?

[jolly sky]

They don't even need to bring anything to anyone. Just existing alone justifies their label as a "lolcow"

It's pretty pathetic in the grand scheme of things

[gentle mortar]

i mean the bullies

[indigo wadi]

Gotcha

[jolly sky]

Knowing this sort of stuff (and even earlier things about the Internet) is something I both hate and "like". I hate that this behaviour existed and still does exist in different ways, but I like that I can teach people that are newer to the internet what those old terms mean and how toxic they are

[mortal pollen]

that's when the red sea parted

so fresh back when it started
and now it's growing mold

that's when the trouble started
at least that's we're told
they kept it safely guarded

Scavengers will always scavenge

[jolly sky]

Little did I know at the time how the source of that would become so prevalent

[round cedar]

Youtube keeps feeding me people with 16 subs and 2 likes that have nothing to say but yap for 30 minutes. They found the gold mine.

Kinda my bad, but still.

[hasty grail]

start blocking them or ignoring the videos

also watch some new things

might help with the algorithm

[indigo wadi]

Yeah you can select do no recommend

[gentle mortar]

you clicked on most of them, didn't you? 😄 That's all it takes.

[round cedar]

I did. Now I have some Elon doing the thing mixed in.

[mighty basin]

I say do not recommend alot, then watch my little poney videos and it really confuses the algo

[round cedar]

My feed is screwed for the next two months.

[gentle mortar]

that's funny

[hasty grail]

uhhhhh try chemistry or other science channels

[indigo wadi]

Bill Nye

[mighty basin]

Styropyro, back yard scientist, nilered, nileblue...

and then MLP, just to again, make YT confused

[jolly sky]

Yea I've found that on the third video on the right hand side, it will always be an unknown, newer uploader (unrelated to recent drama nonsense)

[hasty grail]

Hyperspace Pirate, History Matters, The Thought Emporium

[stoic zealot]

I kind of wondering how many of does WoW drama raiders went Thor's linktree and went to his onlyfans

[gentle mortar]

The are few cool channels:
James Lee (Animation), Jacob Geller, camwing, Noodle, Jauwn (laught at ai blockchain people), Captan Dissolution (scientific and awesome edits and visuals)

[jolly sky]

I'd also recommend Whitelight and YourFavouriteSon as a feed purger

The rant from Thor of more

[blazing sigil]

The word has lost meaning

[timber vortex]

i hope someone clipped that, i missed it

[flint lynx]

on it at the moment

[tribal nest]

Was that a McDonalds ad?

[stoic zealot]

I forgot where I was ;-;

[flint lynx]

there we go
https://www.twitch.tv/piratesoftware/clip/KindKindTermiteImGlitch-vERl3r4Oy_6858Es

also i just realized but he replied to my TTS to say he'd check my game and i'm thankful for that, but he did not answer my first question about the cursed voting lol oops

[indigo wadi]

On purpose most likely

[round cedar]

The joke's on Thor. The game is in New Zealandian. English does not apply.

[stoic zealot]

this user is about to get smited

[azure glen]

That's the curse of TTS, Thor will often only answer one thing per TTS

His attention span isn't longer

[stoic zealot]

update Zaf cut their head off

[flint lynx]

it was a big TTS to be fair so it's also quite on me lol

[gentle mortar]

More means Markiplier

[ruby elm]

OH SHIT

a person is finding out don't mess with a streamer who's head mod is a lawyer in copyright law

[stoic zealot]

Welp . . .time to get the popcorn

[ruby elm]

I tried to say that but automod yeeted the message

[candid grove]

What happened?

[gentle mortar]

someone put his voice in the videogame, was said no to him via dmca, he counter claimed

[ruby elm]

person is using thors voice in a game without permission

AND NOW KHRONOS IS BEING SENT

[candid grove]

Whaaaaaaaat

[gentle mortar]

which leads to court

[ruby elm]

Khronos

[gentle mortar]

normal shit

[candid grove]

But like via AI?

[ruby elm]

the guy who is a copyright lawyer

[azure glen]

https://www.reddit.com/r/LivestreamFail/comments/1i5tyvi/he_put_pirate_software_drama_in_his_indie_game/

[ruby elm]

oh theres a link

[serene valley]

oh god

it's even worse

it's a hate game

[tribal nest]

Of course it is

[ruby elm]

Oh is it specifically a hate against streamers game?

[serene valley]

no hate against thor

[ruby elm]

so they just did it cause they hate thor

OH BOY

[indigo wadi]

Just lame

[tribal nest]

I'm going to put my bet down that the maker either did it to make Thor look like a bad guy for 'putting down a small indie game maker', or because he purposfully wanted it to go to court, so they can 'prove' it's not his real voice

[candid grove]

Omg I can’t stop laughing 😄 doing this stupid shit against someone who has a copyright lawyer

[indigo wadi]

Wouldn't even bother paying it any attention

[tacit nest]

oh wow its so much worse than i thought

[candid grove]

Pretty sure the reddit upvotes for this, and then crying about Thor sueing him for it will have worthed it

[winter mountain]

Checking the creators comments in that linked LSF thread, that person's kinda a nutcase tbh

[indigo wadi]

Most likely Thor has no reaction

[candid grove]

I mean he made a roach have his voice, you didn’t need to read comments to determine he is not okay.

[tacit nest]

He has been advertising this game using shock tactics for like 3 weeks

Dude is about to feel pain

trying to make money by becomming a lol cow

No much worse, man child who knows what hes doing

good, what browser?

[stone prairie]

First rule of discord, never click a link from an untrusted user. Second rule of discord, all users are untrusted.

[TEXT](<LINK>)
you can also make it funny by adding a sub header
-# [TEXT](<LINK>)
the best way to combat these links is first, always looking too see if the link has its embed closed. if there is no embed with a link on discord it was always done manually. Then you always mouse over a link to reveal where it leads before you click on it.
If this is too hard to remeber, enable click through protection on discord if you turned it off, always make sure the names match the destination page.

[forest glacier]

[tacit nest]

so for example, I can create a fake discord warning that looks 100% legit if i know what they look like.
-# This user is a know bird enjoyer Learn more

[drifting hawk]

[gentle mortar]

You can also copy it and (naturally) you get the formating with a link, also a way to check it

[tacit nest]

replys are also a good way to defend against fake discord links as you can see

thor recommended this book on stream. https://codehiddenlanguage.com/ while the website is just a sample its proven great for learing all manner of weird ways i can be attacked on a puter

[gentle mortar]

adding to my favorites, thanks

[drifting hawk]

Ah man
-# 7's are supreme and more isnt more learn more

@tacit nest thats dope

[tacit nest]

Yeah

now you know basic mark down

if you wanna learn more mard down code i reccomend using Obsidan in tandem with any instructional guide

[drifting hawk]

I know Obsidian uses it but for some reason my brain didnt see it this way

[gentle mortar]

markdown my beloved

[tacit nest]

its only a few steps removed from straight up html

[drifting hawk]

yesh

man

[gentle mortar]

get it, it's good

[tacit nest]

Obsidan does support html, but it does go against the core design princaples of the app
