who watches streams lol? go play the game yourself.
and furthermore you give gold to streamers?
well then you're not very smart.
to put it gently...
People watch streams to fill in the lack of in-game social interaction.
If you have 2 monitors, its a really good idea to find a few streamers you like and watch them while you play. Watching a pro stream in sc2 was the best way to get good besides actually playing the game. Back when I played sc2, Idra would get 50k viewers in the first 15 minutes after he turned his stream on.
Seeing a game from someone else's POV is very powerful.
The problem isn't donating gold to someone you watch daily. The problem is that he sat there and lied on his stream then took donations from people that might of withheld had they of known the truth.
