Tiptober day 3: bait.

I suspect @Twitch, with their new #paytowin, stream boosting, money grabbing system, is trying to recoup their losses from #SubOffTwitch and #Tiptember.  Now #Tiptober.

And, if they keep this $#!7 up, it’ll be #Tipvember and #Tipcember. 

#TwitchDoBetter

Thank you for reading and/or watching; may every decision you make in the future be in the spirit of fairness and I hope the rest of your day doesn’t go to $#!7.

#Tiptember Instead of #Subtember

@sixybb suggested #Tiptember in response to @Twitch’s announcement of #Subtember on Twitter on August 26th.

#Tiptober was suggested in response to sixybb’s #Tiptember tweet.

Given Twitch’s inadequate email response to the hate raids towards marginalized streamers, #Tiptember and #Tiptober are excellent ideas.

However, @NTSTwitch posed a question on August 30th: 

Twitch Streamers: How are you rewarding your viewers for supporting your stream via donation instead of subscribing?

A legitimate question and concern.

Suggestions for Rewards for #Tiptember/#Tiptober:

Move emotes to BTTV.

Create designated roles in Discord for those who donate.

Make sure whoever you go through has Discord integration: 

The only one I know of who can assign roles to donators is Ko-fi.

Give Donators their own channel in the Discord server.

If you have Sub-Only community days, let them participate.

Example: 5 Games for Subs, 3 Games for Donators

Suggestions for Rewards for #SubOffTwitch:

Move emotes to BTTV.

Create designated roles in Discord for the off Twitch subscribers.

Make sure whoever you go through has Discord integration: below are two I know of:

Ko-fi

Patreon

However you spent your time with your Twitch subscribers, keep it up with your Off-Twitch subscribers.

Any additional rewards will depend on the streamers; don’t overthink it.

Ask yourself how YOU want to interact with your community; there’s no harm in asking your community for feedback.

Thank you for reading; may every decision you make in the future be in the spirit of fairness and you have a nice rest of your day.
