Trauma isn’t guaranteed to heal. No predetermined amount of time. No certainty that therapy or medication will “fix” it or make you forget. It’s not all packaged up neat and tidy like scrape, bruise, or broken bone. While physical scars can heal, not all emotional scars fade.

@SteezyyTommyy Genuinely didn’t know his name Jaryd until you mentioned it. I’m thinking of somebody else then.

[Dwoalin @Dwoalin]

Which Jared are you speaking of? Because if it’s the one I’m thinking of, it’s not the flex you think it is. We do continue on with our day, elsewhere. Streamers who have any consideration for their lurkers aren’t calling them out by name. Bottom line. Thanking lurkers in general or something like that, sure. Plenty of us have grown an audience without having to call people out of desperation for interaction. You develop and earn interaction, not by demanding it. There’s also the “solution” of not addressing somebody unless spoken to. Something I and many of us learned years ago while many of you are still struggling with day one etiquette and respect for people. But maybe that’s what separates this mentality amongst a different community. Seems like people just can’t handle streaming without an interactive audience from Day 1. And I don’t think a lot of larger streamers have had to remember what the reality of being a viewer or a smaller streamer is like in a long time.

@jwaynedonkson Well, this is one place where he clearly has a lapse in perspective. He certainly has been doing this a long time and I think he’s forgotten some things along the way.

[Dwoalin @Dwoalin]

You think somebody with 15,000 average viewers is relatable to somebody who is inexperienced and shouldn’t be calling out lurkers? That doesn’t scale down. I’m quite positive Summit is not struggling to have people engaging in his chat to the point that he would need to follow his own advice of calling out lurkers. It doesn’t matter if the streamer is big or small, the streamer doesn’t get to choose when or if somebody feels ready to communicate. The viewer does. It is literally the fastest way to have somebody never ever come back to your stream. It’s genuinely terrible advice l.

[Dwoalin @Dwoalin]

This is exactly a reason why you “don’t have people stop by often.”

There is no appropriate time to be calling out lurkers by name. And if you believe there is, you’ve been detached from the reality for a long time or you’re brand new. The number of times I’ve had streamers call me out while I was lurking and trying to get a feel for them as a person is too many. You call me out, I’m instantly out of there. And so are 90% of people. If you want to lose viewers before they comfortable and ready to to introduce themselves, call them out. See how that fairs. The viewer gets to choose when the right time is to interact, not you.

@Comfywa Lol da Fuq. Small streamers don’t have people stop by often so they jump at the chance for engagement. Don’t stop by 5 viewer channels if you don’t want interaction. It’s why people stream in the first place.

[Dwoalin @Dwoalin]

@summit1g @Comfywa And this is how you continue to have people not stop by often. Or stay.
