@tveen323 @_D0ra_D0ra_D0ra @FelixSchlang @Erdayastronaut @thecyberfam @CSI_Starbase @MarcusHouse @wai Agree! We are working on a lot of new content (news and other) that will bring a lot of information but quickly.

@TLPN_Official @_D0ra_D0ra_D0ra @FelixSchlang @Erdayastronaut @thecyberfam @CSI_Starbase @MarcusHouse @wai Fair point, running this stuff isn’t cheap. But does it really need 45 minutes of recycled clips, dramatic music, and ‘let’s dive right in’ energy every week? Many channels manage the bills without turning it into a soap multiple times a week.

@tveen323 @_D0ra_D0ra_D0ra @FelixSchlang @Erdayastronaut @thecyberfam @CSI_Starbase @MarcusHouse @wai Operating the infrastructure all of us do isn't cheap, and YouTube ad revenue alone isn't enough for anyone to operate; so superheats, shirts, and membership is what makes it all happen!

@_D0ra_D0ra_D0ra @FelixSchlang @Erdayastronaut @thecyberfam @TLPN_Official Same, I only watch @CSI_Starbase and @MarcusHouse from time to time. All the others are notorious for clickbaity titles, very long episodes full repetition, and aggressive ads and sponsorships. Especially @WAI, they feel pretty cringeworthy! Let's dive right in! 🤮

We have received no communication from you and there is no way on the creator side to issue refunds for super chats. If you were muted in the live chat, 99.9% of time was because you were breaking one of the community rules; if wanted to appeal that could have sent us a DM or submitted a ticket via discord; but you did neither. We appreciate all our community support, from just watching, liking, and sharing to those that should to support via superchats, membership, or shop purchases. Feel free to send me a DM, and I'll look into what happened! - Zac

I no longer listen to any of the broadcasts because all they do is ramble on for hours and try to sell T shirts. I DO have them all open simultaneously (because I support them*) but keep muted. Only the official SpaceX is not muted. *Except @TLPN_Official I no longer support. They kicked me out of live chat after I sent them a $10 superchat, then refused to give me a refund. Jerks.
