There an example for you.
Talking about any particular topic such as murder isnt a listed rule. But it’s with in Pertho’s power to say “no, let’s not”.
It falls under the rule of not being disruptive and maintaining general order. Forum and twitch moderators have the discrepancy to take implied right to enforce that good order.
I have the rules but those are for general behavior. If some really out of hand stuff happens then I have to make a decision on whether or not I mod the situation and create precedence for future behavior.
For better or worse, how the rules are enforced in any one given subforum shape the culture of it.
So lets not say things that necessitate phone calls to federal agencies.
Don’t worry…
I was being exaggeratory to make a point that the “my steam my rules” taken to its logical conclusion if it were absolutized is harmful.
First of all I’m not suggestion either I or anyone else is murdering anyone, I tried to pick something so absurd that the “my stream my rules”, when absolutized, is shown to be wrong, to get people to say the streamer has just as much as a responsibility to not be a (we used F—, so I can say this) dick as the chatter.
The problem is that twitch is a multi-way participatory media, ad he general rule is the streamer is inviting the public to chat back. If the pubic is invited to chat, and if the streamer doesn’t DICTATE what’s acceptable content on the stream, don’t blame the chat for making a comment that’s against unwritten rules.
The question is who is more reasonable? I believe I am because a lot of reasonable people would assume the content is for 13+ based on her clothing. Mixer makes that assumption automatically, though they are unclear whether, assuming all other rules are followed, if 13+ language content is acceptable in a stream like Srslycurious’s and can be a strike against the streamer for wrongful ejection if she ejects for 13+ comments in her room.
NOW it would be unacceptable because she SPECIFIES “Family Friendly”. But when I was busted that wasn’t a rule. If I see the rule and say it anyway, it’s my own damn fault. But if it’s NOT specified, I have a legal out.
In Ohio, turning right on red is legal assuming, a) it’s not specifically banned at that intersection, and b) you make a good judgement call and give plenty of room for the rightward thru traffic to go through without slamming the brakes. I did not cause an accident and there was no specific rule against it. What did I do wrong?
No where in the Twitch rules and regulations does it say all rating-unmarked rooms are considered rated 13+ OR 6+. If it’s unclear where the default rule lies, whether there’s a rule saying assume 6+ chat unless otherwise specified or if it’s 13+, what’s acceptable in one chat is unacceptable in other chat. I assume, because you have to be 13+ to be a member of twitch, the default rating is 13+ .
Sorry, but that sounds both like both a lot of innocent would be ejected and streamers would have a hard time enforcing norms because of unclear “Twitch-wide basic rules of the road” where local differences are posted clearly.
Now it should be general rule, don’t assume you have the Twitch rules on your side as a chatter. If you’re going to make a snuggly comment, ask what the intended rating of the stream is. If they ask
“why do you ask?”, I’d say “I’ve been ejected for making a 13+ comment in an UNMARKED 6+ zone, and was hosed by a streamer in what looks like a ban trap.”
The problem is that Twitch is a Three-way broadcast channel. TV is one-way, producer to audience. Twitch also includes audience-to-producer and audience-to-each-other. Because there are no clear rules, I have a right to my chat as they do in their stream. And I didn’t break into their stream, it’s open to the public. The streamer rolled out the red carpet. And where clear rules are absent, why is the paying customer in an iffy situation considered ALWAYS WRONG. Not exactly a consumer friendly model.
Twitch did not open Twitch to SOLELY satisfy egos of video game streamers. They do it because THEY MAKE MONEY satisfying the ego of video game streamers. Likewise, I’ll promise due process on my Twitch stream both because unfairly ejecting streamers is wrong, and I can gain viewers by stating such.
You seriously need help
Has this train wreck jumped the track, the shark, unto the moon, yet?
How far are we taking this?

How do you feel about progressive taxes?
Get in here guys
How do you feel about progressive taxes?
It should be progressive enough where you get more money from the rich and ensure some societal help, because with great power comes great responsibilty and money is a quantification of power, but not so progressive that it discourges the earning of extra wealth.
Some people are indignant when they say why should I pay Pay 50% taxes on my second million in a year. The optimist in me says I am lucky enough to earn a million, let alone two, and if my first million is only at 25% that’s plenty to live off of.
The controls of the government and economy are not set in concrete, the lever can move to adjust to things.
There are 2 aspects that concern me, 1) how much do I make and 2) what can that buy me.
I’m frankly glad I live in an economy where I can afford a 3D TV for $200 in 2012 with a few month’s savings. Also being poorer forces you to be more creative. A little creativity got me to find a cheap, and frankly, better surround system than communal speakers, namely surround encoded headphones. You be able to echolocate things better with a pair of headphones than with stationary speakers. Movies sound better at home than at the theater. My main theater room is so oddly-shaped that the only way surround works is headphones. Plus mom doesn’t get 3D headaches at home with shutter 3D, but does in the theater, which has polar 3D. Unfortunately the lack of 3D discs is bad, and medically necessary for my mom.
I definitely know some people who think taxation is theft, so since this thread has run its course and you’ve learned that there can be cintext specific rules which can be seperate of global ones,
How about you read Atlas Shrugged and make a thread about it? For sure a couple of people would read it.
He clearly has some higher level functions, with the strong sense of justice that seems readily baked-in to such, barring complete sociopaths.
Perhaps this thread was merely a mis-skewed SJW acid/ass-tits trip[ping]/Smash?
@tripletopper is obviously M.O.D.O.K if he had autism. He’s on a plain of existence and intelligence we will never be able to understand or comprehend.

You only got 1/3 of it right. I’m not a Single Jewish Woman. 
I’m a SAM, a Single Agnostic (or Atheist if my mom and dad push religion on me too much and I push back) Man.
But to those who I date, religion in my lady (and yes, it’s a lady, I don’t want to kiss a guy. I’m just not attracted to men in a snuggly way, But there are plenty of men you can snuggle with.) is not necessarily a turnoff. if it makes you better person, more power to you. If it makes you a worse person, I decide it’s not worth it.
Okay so…I’m gonna close this thread with that last parting thought.
We eagerly await whichever new massive wall of text you bombard us next, Soldier.
