While live, during a visit by aayl, we discovered that - for some reason - "N64 ga" is a phrase that will held by automod.

That happened to me the other day as well.

Now that I really look at it I'm assuming it's because it starts with an "N" ends in "ga" that it thinks it might potentially be a racial slur.

Laptop's busy updating itself so I've got no idea when or even if I'll be live on the GRcade channel. If someone else has a use for it, feel free.

Not sure where to put this, sorry. Had a really weird incident with someone in my Discord tonight there where a wee guy who's been coming into my streams and making me feel a bit uncomfortable tried to correct my use of the word jealous. A few of us pushed back a bit, explaining that the use of language changes, jealous and envious are largely synonymous, etc. The conversation moved on a bit and then he jumped back in with another comment. One of Jimjam's friends made a really innocuous joke in response and he blew up, unfollowed me on Twitch and deleted Discord(according to the message).

I feel like absolute gooseberry fool about it. Never had to deal with anything like this before, and while I don't think anyone has been offensive or said anything wrong, I can't help but feel like there was a pile-on and that's caused him upset. That's not what I want from Twitch, or from my community at all, and I hate the idea that this might've caused someone discomfort. I've messaged the dude to apologise and let him know that nobody was trying to take the piss or anything. I don't even mind if he doesn't come back or whatever, but I need him to know that, at least from my end, there was no malice intended in any of the comments that were made. I guess I'm worried that, because previous interactions with him have made me uncomfortable, I've been unconsciously harsh or shitty without intending to be.

Honestly man, mortified.

I found the chat on Discord and honestly it comes completely out of the blue. There was no pile-on that I could see. They came out with something that most of the people in the chat disagreed with, the responses were all perfectly civil then they pulled the "I'm leaving forever" card when someone made a joke about something unrelated, that wasn't even any kind of insult, or even directed at them.

It's a bit of a fact of streaming that as you grow and get more viewers, you're not always going to like all of them. Some people might not do anything, or say anything "bad", but they just seem to rub you up the wrong way.

You go out of your way to be welcoming and friendly on stream so don't worry about it.

If they've decided that your community isn't for them well then that's their loss. Plus if they've been making you uncomfortable on stream maybe it's for the best.

Yeah I agree with Devlin after also going to look at the chat. He seems to blow up out of nowhere after imo acting a bit weird and dickish in the first place anyway.

I think you have a very warm and welcoming stream and as Devlin said its a bit of a side effect of growing and might be for the best if he's been making your streams less enjoyable.

I've also just had a little look out of curiosity. It was so abrupt that when I read it I actually thought he was joking - "that pun is so bad I'm deleting my Discord so I never have to see it again", kind of thing. I guess not though given the context!

I sometimes overreact to things because I feel like people are having a go when they actually aren't, so I have some sympathy with him. But he was definitely behaving a bit oddly, and it sounds like he wasn't gelling very well with your community even outside of that incident. Not every person will be a good fit for every community - it's no-one's fault really. Your streams are definitely very friendly, and your Discord too (at least from what I've seen while lurking #animal-buddies ;) ). I can tell how much effort you put into being welcoming and keeping it light and fun, and you definitely haven't done anything to feel badly about. I think what's happened there with him is probably for the best in the grand scheme of things - if they hadn't left over something relatively harmless like that, there could well have been a more serious argument / drama further down the road, if that makes sense.

Thanks for the responses guys, I appreciate the outside perspective. Was just a very strange situation and development, and I’m not sure how much I like the idea of it happening again. I’ve re-ordered Discord a bit and added some hard and fast rules for people for people’s future reference.

EDIT: fella’s back on the discord now. I am very confused. :lol:

Thanks for the raids earlier Cheeky and Laga! Very appreciated!

Forgot to post here beforehand but I had a great time doing 7 hours of streaming today. Did some more of the Nuzlocke on Pokemon Silver and then my partner played some Nancy Drew.

I think I'm busy Monday night but will try to check in on future streams. I've started my own playthrough too - really enjoyed it despite having just watched you play the exact same parts.

At one point we talked about the mirrored game world in various versions- I dug a bit deeper and found this in the NintendoLife review:
"In a neat touch, too, the normal difficulty setting has a left-handed Link and the GameCube layout, while Hero mode is a right-handed Link and the mirrored layout from the Wii game."

So there is a mirror mode built in!
