More people are watching video game streams than HBO, Netflix, ESPN, and Hulu.

You feel the same way about them watching sports?

It's stupid!! They should sit around and watch teenagers throw a round ball into

This is a very, very hard point for some CBers to understand.

it's equating playing video games with playing football. one is a sport. the other isn't

No it's not.

It's not equating football and video games. It's equating WATCHING football

SandYFan

4/20/17 4:24pm

uh for those to be equal the activities being watched would need to be equal

Why?

SandYFan

4/20/17 4:28pm

ok, whats the difference between watching someone sleeping and watching someone play video games

Deleted

There is zero movement when someone sleeps. That is the difference.

SandYFan

4/20/17 4:32pm

No. There is zero movement when someone is dead.

If you want to argue semantics, then have fun!

SandYFan

so the movement of the mouse is the difference?

To someone, sure. Entertainment is subjective.

One can land you in jail and the other can land you in the friend zone forever.

It's the same as sitting and watching someone play football, right? lol

1) Start a stream on twitch 2) get a large following 3) apply to be a twitch partner 4) create custom emojis 5) profit!

Kajdin

Yea the rewards for subscribing change from streamer to streamer, just citing one of the most common. No ads is another.
