What questions should be off-limits to a Twitch streamer during their show?

[blkmoney12]

I follow a few Twitch streamers on a regular basis and often ask questions throughout their stream just to pick their brain and get an opinion. But, with so many controversial developments in poker happening over the past while this made me wonder, what might be some questions or topics to steer clear or would be off-limits or may not be appropriate to ask?

No idea what kind of 'controversial developments' you're referencing? :dontknow:

Difficult to answer your question with little to no context..

Would have thought that the kind of questions best avoided would be common sense? :smile:

I would say anything critical or negative. Folks should be watching twitch streams because they "like" the streamer or his/her style, views, etc.

I think everything that is not prohibited by the rules of the twitch channel can be asked and it will be fine !!!

I don't think it's appropriate to ask personal questions.

I think comments by some of the armchair pros should be completely ignored by the streamer. Some of their questions & comments are annoying and I prefer if the streamer ignores them. Often I will just adjust the twitch stream so that I don't see any of the chat comments

Personally, I don't think there is many comments or questions that would be off limits of saying to a streamer unless it involved derogatory terms of some sort. I think commenting on a streamer's chat just to be a troll is probably just more or less annoying to them. As for what might be considered not a great question is stuff like "what are your ranges for x position" or "How often do you randomize in this situation" in which those answers could give a lot of information on how that streamer plays his strategy. Not that I think a streamer would get mad at a question like that, but they would probably shy away from answering it.

Stay away from "How YOU doin?" or "What are you wearing?"

Here's one topic that twitch streamer might not want to comment doing a livestream.

First of all I'd like to thank you for making a comment on my thread. Now the particular issue at hand is concerning Vanessa Kade leaving ACR for the same issues that she left ggpoker not less than a year ago. There are some twitch streamers that will not touch the subject of Vanessa Kade leaving ACR and particular poker players that are currently ambassadors of ACR would not want to touch the subject and would that be considered out of bounds to ask such a question. I had recently talked to someone that's an ambassador of a poker site on their discord private message I had told them I would not ask that question about Vanessa Kade leaving ACR on their live twitch broadcast. They told me they appreciate that cuz they consider that A Private Matter now They are not an ambassador of ACR but the fact that they could consider this as such a private matter that they did not want their opinions broadcast on their twitch Channel. As far as the thread is concerned the meaning behind it is what type of Poker questions in the industry would be considered somewhat out of bounds. Thank you for making a comment I hope this will clear some things up.

Hi all
Yesterday I watched the stream of Anatoly Nikitin (plays a 10-day marathon at different stakes and disciplines), they call him fat, I see he doesn’t like it, I think you shouldn’t insult during the game, it annoys the streamer from the search

I don´t ask so much. I enjoy the game.
