Just thought I'd see how many misinformed people there are in the forums. Probably a lot.
Just wanted to add this in before more people say it's not a job in the comments below. Saves me from replying:
They do have a paycheck. As well as a business partnership with the company and site that they stream through. They also make ad revenue through the ads they run (completely unrelated to the charity of viewers). People subscribe if they feel a streamer is worth their support. All of this = job.

To all who say it isn't;you are aware they don't sit around playing games all day right? That's not a professional gamer that's a lazy gamer. A professional streamer will spend more time working on his setup and other things related than he will daily with his games

작성자: Aprovoked_Mango 10/5/2015 7:09:15 PMIt pays, is it a career though, not really I wouldn't ofeel thought but people do need to leave this old mentality of work must be hard and shit for it to be work. Someone's getting paid to do something they enjoy, that there is a victory.

1 답변If someone gets paid for their work and/or efforts, I would call that work "a job". Is it long-term? Is it sustainable? I don't know. What jobs really are? I bet that a little more than a hundred years ago people were under the impression that "horses will always need shoeing, so become a farrier and you will always have work," Less true today than it was. So, as long as the individual has skills, is willing and capable of working hard, and (hopefully) knows how to put those things to work in other roles (should their current one fizzle out)? Then enjoy the job you have! But it's always good to have a backup plan.
