Find it really odd, give to a charity instead!
People moan about game prices/dlc and yep they're fine with donating money to someone who will forgot you in an Instant.
Streamers are expecting donations now because of this.
You think they'll remember who you are when you donate?
They're sponging off people to earn a living.
If anyone has actually donated before please share as to why and how much!
****please stop comparing it with real sports****
I bet the majority of people who donate wouldn't give to the homeless either.
"its their job"

Why are people fgts
-
People like watching streams, donations help support them. Shits not rocket science yo.
-
4 RisposteI don't do either but I'd give to a streamer before I gave money to some random homeless dude.
-
6 RisposteI only donate a maximum of $5 and only to ShadyPenguinn as he is my favorite youtuber and it helps him grow his content the only times I do donate is when I have a couple of bucks to spare and I do give to homeless if I have the cash or change on me my girlfriend even gives food in a little care package along with tooth brushes and other needed things

5 RisposteUnless u often donate to charities, you're bring very hypocritical. Why do people care about how other spend money? It has no effect on you whether they donate to a streamer or if the person buys a cheeseburger. If donating to a streamer makes them happy. Then let them. It's not hurting you whatsoever.
-
Because they like to throw money at the screen! Do you get it now?
-
Theres a lot of reasons, the person who donates like what the streamer is doing and wants to see more, the streamer could be doing an extra life stream, that streamer could have helped someone through a rough time(i know watching roosterteeth/achievement hunter videos got me through tough times) and there are other reasons.
-
Some dude named RealKraftyy was selling t shirts on his stream lol. Who the -blam!- buys a shirt of a streamer????
-
1 RispondiThere's nothing wrong with donating IMO. Especially if it's just like $5-$10 but why do you care how people spend their money?
-
I have $ Time to spend it on the memberships if you know what I mean...:) YOUR money YOUR decisions.
-
Judging people behind an anonymous screen. Please tell me more, omnipotent one.
-
15 RisposteI am so fed up with these posts bitching about what other people choose to spend THEIR money on. Whether its DLC, or streamers, why the hell does it bug you so much? Who the hell are you to judge other people for the decisions they make with the money they earned?
-
True people work 10x harder than streamers do but streamer get paid more like wtf
-
-
Ppl get excited when some one "famous" msg's them

3 RisposteIt is a charity in a way

spoiled rich kids with low self esteem

It comes down to entertainment value in my opinion. The donation is no different than paying for any other form of entertainment. I have not done it because I've yet find an entertaining streamer, and I always end up playing the game instead. But if I stumble accross a good entertainer I would want to support them to continue to see their content. I'd say you find it difficult to understand because you don't see the entertainment value in the content, same as I don't understand professional baseball players making such massive paychecks (PewDiePie is giving them a run for their money, good on him), I don't see the entertainment value in that.

1 RispondiWhy does anyone even watch them let alone give them a dime? Why the -blam!- would you want to watch someone else play a video game instead of playing it yourself?
-
3 RisposteIt's 2015 entertainment is worth throwing your money away for
-
6 RisposteBecause they've never seen vagina before and the immediate reaction is to throw money at the screen.

Well if you think about it, streaming is form of entertainment, entertainment can be a way to make money. I see no harm in it, apparently there is a demand for streamers thus people donate to the better ones.
