>In a heated video yesterday, professional streamer and YouTuber Desmond Etika Amofah issued a warning against against viewers who “fuck with me, fuck with my money, or fuck with my life.” Amofah, a big personality in the Nintendo community, displayed five recent donations to his Twitch stream, each in quantities of $50 or $100. Then, he showed five corresponding disputes against those charges in his Paypal account. The viewer had demanded back the money they donated, and in the process, slammed Amofah with a hundred bucks in processing fees.
>“For content creators like myself and many others who suffer from a problem like this, it also fucks up our lives since everything I do is through PayPal,” Amofah said.
>“Chargebacks,” as they’re called, are requests for credit card companies to refund money given to someone through an apparently fraudulent transaction. Over the last few years, streamers, whose livings are often built on PayPal transactions, have become increasingly frustrated as trolls or viewers weaponize chargebacks against them.
>Kaceytron, another big streamer, gets about a half dozen chargebacks each month, often after small donations. In 2013, when she started streaming, she sometimes received donations up to $1,000 that were subsequently charged back. Over the phone, Kaceytron recalled how after a series of sketchy transactions, her PayPal account was frozen. “That was two to three weeks I didn’t get donations at all,” Kaceytron said. “That sucked and affected me pretty bad.”

Stop fucking with the good vidya streamers.

Arguably this is only an issue because these streamers make this shit appealing to people who want affection so badly they are willing to donate just for someone to say they "lub them very much and are the top donator this month!"

These people still turn a massive profit essentially begging and whoring themselves online. Kaceytron isn't going to land on the street because of a few hundred bucks worth of chargebacks when she makes that much in a couple of hours.

You're essentially given a free ride through life and you bitch and moan about a relatively minor inconvenience.

Yeah, this is some bullshit. I can understand not liking youtubers /streamers / ecelebs.
I can understand not liking the content they make, or "make".
But going out of your way to fuck up with them in such a personal way, a way that touches their finances and life, is such a fucking shitty thing to do.
Especially when you don't even know them and have no real grudge other than "I saw them on the internet and I didn't like them". You must be a special kind of loser to be so miserable that you would do something like this.

It's not like you can't get the money back because you can.

This dude got 400 burgerdollars donated to him by a user called "random guy" on twitch and he tried to chargeback all 56 donations.

Needless to say the kid got fucked when the streamer fought back.

He makes fun of the guy in some of his tweets,

It is not about paychecks being unreliable. It is about people going out of their way to deliberately hinder you and make you lose money just to get their kicks.

Do i understand correctly that this income is tax-exempt because it is made of "donations"?
If so serves the streamers right having these troubles.
You receive a payment for a service, you pay taxes, that's it. There are a lot of services that do not have a money back policy.
That means that the streamers could have avoided this problem entirely if they'd only chosen to not be greedy stupid fucks.

Yeha, just like how video games and tv make people violent right? The responsability is never the parents. The whole world has to be responsible for someone else's children and their decisions.
I don't like streamers either and I am behind it when someone says that living off donations is cheap. But saying they are responsible if some kid steal the parents credit card is the dumbest thing I have heard today.

It's a real job insofar as that people are (currently) willing to pay for it. They shouldn't be hitching about it if its their "real job" because they could always just go find a different career if they're unsatisified with their pay. The youtube/twitch gravy train has already passed its peak though, it'll be interesting to see what happens to all of these pseudo-celebrities when streaming culture is finally dead and they have no money and 0 marketable skills to start a new career.

oh yeah, one more thing pals.
it's the worst when the streamer/youtuber actually tries to facade they Don't have any obligations with their public because "it's a voluntary donation"
they sperg so much about it "being a real job" but like to handwave responsabilities. It's worse when they are clearly shackled by that autist STEM cash cow and try to deny they do everything to make these people a priority on their show.

People used to make Youtube videos because they were passionate or had something interesting to put out there.

Now they make content solely to drum up money to support their low effort lifestyles, despite having nothing interesting or engaging to say. Just a bunch of losers all making safe, marketable, copy paste content for a bunch of bigger losers with zero standards.

If someone is capable of stealing a credit card and making an online donation, then they are well aware that they are stealing. That is why they took the credit card in secret in the first place instead of asking.

Paypal isnt a free service. They charge a small percentage for donations. Chargebacks also require this same fee.

>>381572718

Paypal/other financial services will block you from doing it too frequently, plus there are certain transaction fees associated with donations.

Theoretically you could set up multiple Paypal accounts and just switch between them, but at that point you're acting more petty than a woman jilted.

Income is income, and if you don't report it then it can get you into hot water. Anyone earning over $20k on Paypal will have it reported by Paypal. They'll be issued a 1040-K, I think it's called, to let them know.

In fact self-employment is a little frustrating tax wise. You also have to pay your own social security and medicaid, which is an extra 15% or so skimmed off the top of your earnings. Low income streamers wind up paying a 30% tax rate in the US. Or in other words twice what the average super rich person pays, percentage wise, but that 'Murrica for you.

To be fair, though, people didn't used to focus on low-effort content until Youtube switched their system over to promote and reward it exclusively. You used to get animations, special effects, and all kinds of interesting things on the site.

It's not that people lost their passion. It's that Youtube figured out if they make people watch billions of derivative videos about nothing, they can run more ads than if people were only watching thousands of high-effort videos.
>>
So I should care about this because?
If paypal charges those wankers that sit on their asses all day playing and EARNING MONEY from that it's alright. And since that stupid monkey went and started yelling about it you can expect this to increase in frequency.
If you're not working(and streaming isn't working) you should be happy if you earned 50 bucks, not getting entitled to your thousands per month for fucking nothing. It's not really entertainment business and you know it.

Streamers are just facing the same issue EVERY business is facing. Fraudulent chargebacks are a thing everywhere. It's streamers responsibility to understand that for every dollar they're making $0.0x will be lost due to chargebacks (+extra fees). That's just called anticipation, and every business take that in consideration as well.

And yes I don't consider "donations" just donations, streamers are running a business.

>>381573640
It would be unlawful in most countries, especially EU, so no they cannot. Paypal and credit card issuers/banks aren't free to do as they please. Being allowed to chargeback is sometime written in the law and is a consumer right that cannot be taken away.

(Good thing legislators don't give a flying fuck about streamers, so they can keep crying, no one cares).

You don't get your PP account banned for payments that got chargeback'd, this is fucking bullshit.

Businesses are facing 100's of CB each month, they are still using Paypal just fine. Just don't use funds you receive straight away, let them sit on your PP account for 45 days~, in case of a CB case, PP is going to temporarily freeze the incriminated funds until the case is closed and that's it.

What Paypal don't like is when people receive donations, cash out (spend the money and/or wire it to bank account) and then end up with negative balance when the CB occurs. Protip: it's the very same for businesses taking any form of electronic payments or checks.

yes they will. Any financial services company will sever ties with accounts with high amounts of chargebacks.

That's also why businesses are also going through third party payment providers who do provide some form of insurance against CB too (but take a bigger cut on payments).

It's the a business responsibilities to understand that there will be potential losses on certain form of payments. Some are adding an extra margin when you pay through PP for that purpose too, it's not only to cover PP fees but protect themselves against chargebacks.

>>381574832
Oh I know, don't get me wrong. I'm just saying that streamers are now becoming "professionals", so they're just facing issues every other businesses are facing.

>>381575269
They will only if your balance is negative, they won't otherwise. PP already charges you extra fees for CBs.

Also many average sized business are way smaller than big streamers today... And if you are a very small streamer, then you shouldn't be facing that many CBs to begin with or you're doing something awfully wrong.

I hope everyone who says "lol get a real job" understands that companies have to defend fradulent chargebacks all the fucking time

It's not PayPal exclusive thing - all major credit card providers deal in chargebacks, and a lot of them are bullshit.

the only difference is that a big business has an accounting staff, or at least a person, who is paid to deal with it, and an account with a balance big enough to eat the fees. But small businesses, especially run by a single person (which is what streamers are, btw) are not necessarily so lucky.

If you're jeering I hope you get the chance to have your small business fucked with by fraud. Fuck thieves

Streamers deserve to get punished for manipulating kids.

The small kids are getting scammed and they steal their parents money to "donate".

Publicly begging should be prohibited, because "streamer" are the same as people in inner cities who beg for money.

>>381577005

You have a point, but actual accountants are expensive (assuming you don't want to get "creatively accounted"), pretty far beyond what a single streamer could earn assuming they're not PDP or among the top echelon of streaming.

Actually, I'm pretty sure streamers at that level would have personal accountants specifically to handle chargeback bullshit.

I'll counter your sage for fun. And also to point out how you don't think this is entertainment is a self centered, delusional opinion. It's priceless. Chargebacks are fradulent shit, and the only argument I'm seeing for this is that it's good to watch people who entertain other people get fucked over because of a nebulous, unclear reason.

What do these "content creators" need all the money for anyway?
If you're making actual content then you might need to pay contractors or pay for a cloud storage solution. But with streaming, what is the money going towards? The software is free. The streaming service is free. A lot of them don't even have to pay for their own games to stream them. There can be initial costs if you have a shitty PC or no microphone, but what is there to spend money on after that?

It's because streamers get their money from two main sources:
>lonely children who use streamers as surrogate friends
>stupid children with their parents' credit card information who give streamers money
It's a completely predatory practice utilized by people who think taking time out of their day (or even spending their whole day) playing videogames in front of a webcame deems them worthy of other people's money.

Perhaps they could try to get an actual, stable job that doesnt depend on the whims of the consumers, which you beg and guilt trip to "donate" and disable adblock if they dont like to face the consumers while riding trends to stay relevant and keep earning a living
I'm legit scared for the oncoming generations that may quit studying on the thought that they could live by streaming videogames like their favorite corporate puppets
>>
>>381578236
There's zero illegal actions when you charge back on a service that's a donation to a profit. The only way for a streamer to protect their right to not be held accountable on charge backs is to become essentially an LLC or nonprofit organization. Either way any streamer doing this will be outed as a cunt like the fine bros.

Yeah you could have been a plumber but you chose something financially unsafe instead. You could always get a different job if you feel this one isn't going to provide you with the economic security you want, but you won't because at your core you believe you are special and deserve attention and deserve to be paid for getting attention. So you get what you bargain for. Enjoy.

There's zero production standard, you are not the entertainment industry, you are begging for money and regurgitating shit thousands of people are doing at the same time, which means you aren't original or making original content for that matter. You should feel lucky you even get 1 god damn cent for that.
He's right to worry only an idiot would say "fuck stem, I can stream all day and suck EA's dick."
"Fuck investing into the work force and having a career, I'll just depend on my entirely livelihood failing because I didn't play a certain cs:go match the way people wanted me to."

Look at all these fucking streamers failing and literally going broke, fucking e-sport faggots that end up having the shit go to their head, make one fuck up and they get banned out of it, then end up broken bitches begging to come back because their life depended on it.
It will never be okay to be a streamer or e-sports player as a full time job, you will be seen as scum, because you decided to say fuck humanity's progress. You are hinder on society as a whole, kill yourself.

Computers don't degrade like cars do. A computer that was good enough to stream two years ago will be good enough to stream forever. Learn how to reinstall your operating system and you'll only need to upgrade a component here and there every three years.

If you're not willing to learn about the technical side, and your fanbase isn't willing to subsidize your need to always have the latest and greatest equipment, then you should probably stick with it as a hobby. Not a career.

>>381577943
Streaming cost the amount for a microphone which is $20 to $30, everything else is free including the software to start it. Computers are fixed, if you have the connection and your PC is capable of streaming then it's going to stream. This will remain this way from the first year of the PCs life to the last year of it.

Don't ever go full retard again.

What the fuck are you doing, never dusting and letting it clog til the shit just burns out.
I have emachines from almost 2 decades ago that still fire up and run almost exactly like the day they were bought. You upgrade a machine because you want better parts, if you have to upgrade because a part died, it's most likely your fault. You should be able to always replace your PC long before the PC itself is incapable of functioning.

I'm talking about changing your oil and filters. There's no getting away from maintenance like that in cars.

Replacing failed components is $200 per year if something fails every single year, which usually doesn't happen.

>He could have been a physics major or became a technician or a mechanical engineer or even a general physician helping out our doctor shortage, becoming a better human being
>but instead chose willing to live in hedonism and depend on begging for good faith rather then contributing to humanity

For that I will always hate you and everything you are. You deserve it, in fact you warrant it and beg for it. You're not original, you're not funny, you beg for attention, but do nothing to warrant gaining such admiration. You're not a hero, you didn't save anyone or yourself, you let your livelihood be dictated by others and lack any kind of self awareness to have a talent. No streaming isn't a talent, stop deluding yourself into thinking it is, you're not a comedian or an entertainer, you are begging people to pay you to play video games, 20 years ago you would be called an idiot for believing that you are worthy to have people sit around pay you to watch you sit and waste your life. You're virtually everything wrong with the society that grew up on the internet. streamers begging for money embodies everything wrong with the society we live in. It's hedonism and you're a fucking degenerate cunt who deserves to be homeless and starving, because you contribute nothing to humanity.

All careers are actual careers. All that matters is making a profit. How that is done is irrelevant.

And I know some people might say its not a real career, but guess what, I still make a decent living on my own schedule, and have plenty of free time in my week. Its honestly amazing and if people get misinformed or or otherwise negatively impacted by my work, honestly fuck them, its the job of the consumer to not get conned.

Same thing with streamers. If some fucking idiot is going to pay them to play videogames, then they have every right to milk that market. I actually admire, for example, the girls who stream and get a ton of donations from thirsty beta virgins, because goddamn that's a fucking brilliant way to make bank.

TL:DR its a dog eat dog world. If there's a market to exploit, there's nothing wrong with doing it. Its the consumer's fault if they spent money on stupid shit.

Why has nobody come up with a better method of doing chargebacks? It seems 90% of them are for legitimate transactions rather than fraud.

I work in insurance and see customers make chargebacks on their deposits and monthly payments all the time, and half the time the banks won't allow us to defend it despite there being zero evidence of fraud.

Hey I'm a STEM-fag too but letting someone who has no talent in STEM shouldn't be forced to STEM just because of an apparent need for more of them. We got enough STEM fags to help the world but they're busy making money off instead of """"helping the world""""" as you speak. Why don't you ask those who are already STEM to do that?

>But it's not even a fucking exploit! Nobody is being exploited!

Well yeah, that's what I meant to say. I didn't mean exploit in the more negative sense, I just couldn't think of a proper, less evil sounding synonym. Basically what I mean is that as long as you are making a profit, and its legal, there's literally nothing wrong with what you are doing. Its always always always on the consumer to shop smart, and if he doesn't, he deserves what he gets. So I don't understand why people don't like streamers. They have simply found a market, and are reaping the benefits. And if someone wants to spend their hard-earned cash to let some guy make his money playing videogames, then that's his problem.

>Wah why can't I be scum of the earth
A couple decades ago you would be called a beggar, you would be shunned from society for being such a hedonistic cunt, a boil upon society's ass. Streamers making revenue, it's so easy for them to lose it all, and you start noticing the anti hobo shit we put up like the spikes where you faggots will sleep when you lose everything. You aren't needed in society and therefore when you do lose everything to hedonism and didn't build a career or have a talent that you will learn that you aren't wanted in society either.

Nice, so Dalí, van Gogh and company should've done STEM instead of making useless art.

>women have the gall to complain they are somehow hard done by as a gender while uncountable numbers of them get given enormous amounts of money for doing basically nothing

The whole twitchwhore thing in and of itself doesn't bother me but when combined with other modern assumptions like "i-its so hard being a strong independent womyn" and "you shouldn't be allowed to look down on me for being a whore/camwhore" it seems like delusions are running rampant on an almost total scale.

You absolute moron, neither of those artists wasted their time acquiring a useless arts degree.

Sensible people come to realise art can't be taught, at best it can be analysed but even that is a massively flawed practice and hardly a salable skill.

If you honestly want to argue that streaming is even remotely comparable to art then please stop, it just makes you look stupid, there is nothing artistically meritable about streaming, I agree it has worth, but it is even less artistic than say reality TV.

If you want to live in a free market society where social welfare doesn't exist, you don't get to complain about people willfully giving their money to others out of their own volition. You can't have it both ways. If the government won't cover my medical bills, Gofundme will.

Funny enough this isn't new. People who accept payment via Paypal have known for years about getting fucked over by disputes.

And it's not necessarily paypal either. Credit cards are incredibly generous about chargebacks/disputes. Great for a consumer, but also a system that can be fucked with by assholes. It's not black and white.
