@AmericanAir I work Uber in the DFW metroplex. I have a suggestion for you. At DFW...there's a new terminal under construction. your main terminal, C is now a 25-30min nightmare to get into. either start offering skylink rides to other terminals or suggest they catch a skylink

@EasyToLearrn orrrr you could have just used the box wrench with the nut in it and your finger holding it in place to do the EXACT same fuckin thing. but...whatever

@HEB @TheSonia5 I'd like one in arlington, tx. preferably somewhere near the entertainment district but there's no room there. All I know is that 1. I miss HEB. 2. I will not drive 15-20 miles to either of the two "nearby"

@TheQuartering *cocks my head* how'd you miss that one though? are you not getting enough sleep as of late with everything going on? Also...yes...people are mental. I blame a lot of it on the school system, the media and social media.

To a school shooting & bomb, with potentially mass casualties?
Ya, a few parking tickets can wait. What a bizarre take.

Was it really necessary for every law enforcement officer in a 50 mile radius to respond? This is obscene.

@TK_SaysThings @SmugAlana @Twitch @TwitchSupport @kick twitch has it's own issues. they are and have been for a while. apparently..harrassing the shit out of vr streamers.
English

@SmugAlana @Twitch @TwitchSupport Twitch is the same company that Clancy says they want to advertise to kids, has ppl getting SA'd at their events, and just hired a pornstar to be their ambassador.
Honestly ppl need to start the migration progress to @kick and maybe youtube.

Do you always give no explanation or reason or is this a special case of "we dont care, go fuck yourself" that you provide to vtubers @Twitch @TwitchSupport

twitch denied my appeal

@Krieger_Angelus @SmugAlana @RazorwindVT @Twitch @TwitchSupport iirc. Twitch in it's infinite stupidity laid off most of the mod staff. Hell I knew one of them by name at one point because he was always in the same chats I was. Not to be a dick, but to be helpful
English

@SmugAlana @RazorwindVT @Twitch @TwitchSupport $20 on the fact only the AI looked at it cause @TwitchSupport is too damn lazy to do their jobs. I remember reporting the Russian dude who left his girlfriend outside and she froze to death and @TwitchSupport told me "This individual hasn't violated guidelines"

It's really such a shame. When Kick first opened I was really skeptical but I could see that it had so much promise. We could all see that it was a blatant ripoff of Twitch. Everyone knew that it was backed by gambling company.
But many of us gave it a chance because it was being pushed as a platform that works with creators instead of stifling content. In the early days Train even personally got involved with supporting VR streamers and instructing their mods to ease up and stop over-policing the category. That was so refreshing to see and made me really want Kick to succeed.
Every time I streamed on Kick it was honestly so much fun. Getting to dance and wear whatever I wanted without having to constantly stress about waking up to a random suspension email was so liberating. Even when they first started adding a basic attire policy for VR streamers, like no pasties, I understood and didn't really mind.
A few years ago the VRC category on Kick was booming! Everyone was really excited and having fun! Now every time I check it's a literal ghost town. Everyone who once cared about Kick are now gone because of their puritanical moderation that's in many ways worse than Twitch now.
All in the pursuit of that almighty ad revenue they so obviously want to start milking as soon as possible.
I still try streaming there every once in a while hoping things have improved but somehow it just keeps getting worse. Last week I got a warning within the first hour which was really confusing because I was mostly just yapping up until that point. I checked my e-mail to see the clip and it was literally the biggest nothingburger.
I held the camera at a low angle, at arms length away from my body, for a total of 3 seconds. That was it. No extreme closeups, no intimate areas of my body filling the frame, no booty, no grinding or anything lewd. Literally just moved the camera a bit lower in front of me for a few seconds lol.
Less than an hour later I got another warning, with zero explanation, and told that my "discoverability" was disabled for an hour. What a joke... there's no one left in the category to even discover me at that point. All the viewers in my stream were from my own community. Not random people from Kick because they've chased everyone else away.

Hi, I'm Lich. I've been streaming professionally for nearly 5 years. I was KICK's first KCIP-partnered VR streamer, I've been a die-hard advocate since its inception, and I have bled green for nearly 3 years now. I was initially attracted to KICK after constant battles with unfair and biased Twitch moderation. KICK had a good sell at the time: a platform whose mission was to give creators more freedom less policing, and all of the subscription support. It was a strong enough incentive for me to leave Twitch altogether. And for two years, it was wonderful! The combination of a 95/5 sub split and KCIP hourly partner pay made KICK a much more stable venture than the shaky ground of Twitch, which could rug-pull your livelihood for no reason at any moment with zero recourse.
But this arrangement depends on a thriving stream ecosystem, and thus stability —without it, the sub split and KCIP are effectively meaningless in the long term. For two years, this wasn't a problem. KICK was flourishing, people were abandoning Twitch for KICK's statement of purpose, and their reputation for less policing of content and more freedom was honestly well-founded. But the first crack appeared when KICK allowed its partners to multistream. That should have been the last nail in the coffin for Twitch, as on an even playing field obviously creators would prefer KICK subs over twitch subs, but Twitch quickly answered by updating their TOS shortly after to bar multistreamers from displaying or acknowledging KICK chat. My category started losing concurrent viewership across the board around this time, and the reason should be obvious: why would a viewer stay on KICK when the people they're watching only interact to Twitch chat? They might as well be watching a YouTube VOD at that point. So now for the first time KICK is leeching viewers to Twitch for nearly an entire year now, and the damage is already done. The people who chat are gone to Twitch, the ones who stayed are lurkers. You've audience captured lurking...
The cracks have really started to fracture this month, as moderation and restrictions have unfortunately become the new normal. In three years of streaming on KICK, I had only accrued three warnings from KICK support (one per year). I don't know what puritan technocracy has corrupted and supplanted KICK's leadership, but in the last two weeks, I've received a warning every day—and sometimes two. All the while, I've watched other KICK streamers getting banned for the same content, some of them while multistreaming on Twitch! Read that last sentence again: people are multistreaming in the VR category just fine on Twitch, yet getting warned and banned for the same content on KICK. What happened? Now Twitch is the less restrictive platform!? The promise of KICK was supposed to be freedom but they act like freedom of speech is the only liberty and point of the graph that represents it.
VR content creators and viewers are now leaving the category in droves—and why would they stay? The statement of purpose —the very reason KICK was created— no longer seems important to KICK. I see Twitch chatters mogging and ridiculing KICK every time a multistreamer gets a @KICKsupport warning because the content they're streaming to purple is against green's TOS. It's a joke that everyone sees the absurdity of, and the optics are terrible. And if Twitch is less restrictive than KICK, then KICK doesn't really have a reason to exist (unless you want to go all-in on "freedom of speech" and political streamers, good luck with that one when you eventually have to incorporate ads and most of the market share is held by Rumble anyways). We may as well wait for Mixer 3 or go stream on YouTube. KCIP pay and the 95/5 split are awesome, but if my category dies, then it's just a Faustian pact is it not?— because if viewership trends downwards because viewers want to see the content that ironically only Twitch is allowing, then we're faced with the inevitable math that says 95% of zero is zero. So I'm dusting off my twitch account, and in the absence of MAJOR course correction by either @StakeEddie or @Trainwreckstv , the platform is going to rot, and i'll see you guys next week on Twitch.

@GENERALHOWEZ @TheQuartering @cenkuygur you think this is about oil for us? smh. we haven't imported or bought Iranian oil for many a year. why? because they are the biggest supporter and exporter of terrorism in the world. have been for many decades. We also, logistically, don't need it.

@TheQuartering @cenkuygur I hate to say it but we don’t want our youth dying for the juice

@ChaotikMadness @Lichbait @SuperlativeBP true and kick has had, in my opinion, waaay more trouble with them since the start, than twitch does.
English

@Lichbait @SuperlativeBP The remaining chatters you can gain on kick that aren't already following you 😅
A lot of the new random chatters I've gotten while Vtubing have been hella toxic and trolls

@Clorox Dear Clorox. Might I point out, that your clinging gel toilet bowl cleaner, is in point of fact? Supposed to STICK to the side of the bowl where it's squirted. Not run down the side of the bowl like it's running in terror from a gang of thugs who want to beat it senseless

@rileyreidx3 I mean...you for sure but if you're fine with both and you are I'm pretty sure........I'm down for both

@elonmusk Thoughts? some in the press including an article in a "news" paper called MY SA [San Antonio] are calling the land STarbase city wants to buy, a land grab. criticizing the fact at least a chunk of it is federally or state protected wild life lands.
