Why do people donate money on Twitch? And sometimes blatant sums (50, 100 euros, etc)? What purpose does it serve for the donors? And it seems like there are a lot of people who regularly donate money for gamers.
My answer to that was:
This is a phenomenon that I myself can not understand ... actually makes no sense. Maybe that is partly faked and 50% of the donors come from their own accounts. Machnchmal streamers also work together and push each other so. I think that only a small part of the donations come from real players. But as I said, these are just my guesses ...
Hammerdammer replied again:
I have a colleague who does that. When asked why he does this, he answered in a natural tone: Because he wants to support his favorite Streamer, so that he can buy better equipment for his streams
Even after a long discussion he stayed with it. Personally, I can not understand the sense behind it
I think many are happy to see their name on the Internet, because a small message for each donor appears in the stream.
Somehow I am surprised that there are actually players who support streamers with donations. So these donations to streamers really don't make sense in my opinion, since they already generate money - and well-known streamers certainly not so little. Sometimes the casinos are directly behind the streamers and these are quasi employed. In this case, not even the streamer gets the money, but the casino itself.
It is certainly not the case that they would do this on a voluntary basis - not even partially. If you donate, then you should invest the money in my opinion in something meaningful. Where people really work voluntarily or for lukewarm and create real added value for society. Animal welfare organizations, research institutions, help for the homeless, etc.
I find it even brazen that purely economically active people or organizations want donations. I don't know if they actively ask for donations or not, because I don't watch that kind of stuff anymore. When streamers ask for donations, it's like Lidl suddenly starting to ask for donations from their customers to finance a new shelf. So we would never ask for donations from players. Unless it's something like what online casino tube did. They collected donations for an animal shelter. Whether the money has actually arrived there I do not know. So far, the promised proof video was unfortunately missing.
That is at least my opinion to the whole. Do any of you donate to any streamers? Do you have a different opinion on this subject and if so why?

I wouldn't dream of donating to someone like that.
Boast with their videos that se otherwise what great and high wins there and then call for donations??? Is it still going?
I like to donate (for sick children, animal shelters and organizations that help animals in Aúsland (am an active animal rights activist). But to donate money to a Streamer, I would never dream of......

I see it exactly the same way as you do. I would also never donate money to any streamer. But didn't you or Matthias yourself donate to OCT once? I think it was not even very little, as far as I remember?

That was me with the donation. I wanted to achieve an advertising effect for GambleJoe. But with gings not only about the advertising effect, otherwise I would also donate to other streamers. I liked the concept of Online Casinos Tube. I liked the fact that they streamed in their native language and that they included real talk (the negative sides of gambling) in the stream every now and then. I also liked that donations should go to animal shelters - which makes sense. However, I now doubt that the donations have actually reached the animal shelter, because the promised "proof video" has not yet appeared.

I would never donate to streamers. If only because I don't know if they are already sponsored by the casino. I would rather give something to a real player, provided I have made a good win beforehand of course.
But I have to take Daniel's side here, because in February he had organized a kind of competition to see who had collected the most points on GambleJoe.com. To my surprise I had won a 100 Euro Paysafe card with a few others, which I also received after about 2 days by email. I had no luck gambling with it, but found it very praiseworthy and correct that he had kept his word, and am still flashed today that I had also won something. Since then, he has a stone in the board with me hehe...
When I think about OCT, (which I always liked to watch), and their collection campaign for the animal shelter in Konstanz, I get sick. Because for some time you hear nothing more from them and also the winners from the Paysafe action have received no money. This is antisocial and shows how much they are at the end. Too bad, because as I said I always found the guys funny and entertaining, but to cheat people out of their money, even with a supposedly good cause (animal shelter donation) is out of the question and even if they show up again someday, they have shat on me. And I bet they will come back when they think the grass has grown over the matter. Normally they should be denounced. But they have always cleverly concealed their true data.
