This is why Marvel is amazing. So many excellent matches guaranteed.

At least with Daigo coming to CEO it won't be a Ortiz/Wong snoozefest. Can you blame people for leaving when it's a mirror match between teammates?

My issue is that Darryl of all people wrote it. That dude really has no room to talk.

Why is that?

That's why CEO 2012 SF4 excites me. Not just with Daigo coming over, but Mago, Momochi, ChocoBlanka, Gamerbee, etc. Gamerbee alone was a welcome sight to see last weekend, so I can't wait to see even more of the best international players coming to battle the best of the US.

Why is that?

I probably shouldn't of posted that cause he's bad as a commentator and though he said some pretty bad stuff but it really just bad jokes. Still though I would of rather heard that from someone other then him.

Speaking of stream monsters DarryH wrote a piece about them: The Cost of Doing Business

I've been finding lately that for me the stream chat is often more captivating and entertaining than whats happening on the stream itself, and as I've said before nothing makes me laugh these days like a stream chat. I can watch a half hour sitcom and not even chuckle once, but when I see something like "My Neighbor Artaro" immediately after hearing Triforce fail to pronounce Arturo I just lose my shit for a minute straight.

I would happily read a book penned by HeySp00ky, but that being said the evil (or as I like to call them, shin stream monsters) who are just purely negative and hateful all the time in a completely serious manner are pretty awful. I think the real problem with stream chats right now is the constant copy/paste stuff, the truly funny stuff is often spontaneous and spur of the moment.

Either way, these people cannot be controlled, you either remove the chat completely or you deal with it. No matter what kind of bans or time outs you impose, stream monsters will ALWAYS find a way.

I also found this excerpt from a comment on the stream monsters facebook page kinda funny;

The community is still so childish, I dont know how anyone expects the viewers to grow up. Look at the buildup to the Unknown/Andre money match. That salty suite video of andre and unknown yelling at each other like two drunk preteens who cant hold their liquor. It makes me laugh so hard that the community doesnt want to police itself but instead worries so much about the people watching.

anyone read this article yet.

Not gonna read it if he's just bitching about "stream monster"s. People in all kinds of media have to deal with constant trolling, heckling, shit talk, etc by several random people everyday.

It's never gonna stop on Fighting Game streams and never going to stop in sports, wrestling, music, etc.

So I accidentally posted the new thread in Off-Topic lol. I had OT loaded in my normal Gaming Discussion tab, and just hit new thread without looking where I was posting. Good job me. I'll get a mod to move it.
