       When did it become socially acceptable for streamers to have goal bars like that? You would have thought the first time one did it, they would have been laughed at and ridiculed by everyone on the platform or community.

       I think it's more of a Twitch thing.  I've seen it over there for years and years and years.  It's now becoming more common everywhere else but yeah it is weird when you think about it.  I think the psychology behind it is sort of like an impulse buy at the grocery store.  Putting low value items at checkout encourages spending so maybe the dono bar does the same i.e. "Oh if I donate just 3 dollars my favorite streamer will hit his goal".

       @Jim @JoelBodin yeah I somewhat don't like it. A shitload of streamers have it now and for absolutely mundane goals usually

       I know the twitch Ethots really "pioneered" it with goals for standing up or whatever stupid shit they would do. But once men began copying it, you would hope there would have been a big backlash. But I guess by that point moderation was so hard in place there was no room for criticism. It becoming the "norm" is what I find fascinating. Because it so clearly is a insult to the viewers intelligence.

       The entire online ecosystem has changed.  Transactional relationships are becoming the norm in almost every facet of interaction.  It started with ad revenue, then integrated fan funding via platforms like patreon or project/crowdfunding via gofundme.  Now it's starting to appear on social media with things like superfans or whatever it was that Twitter was doing and I'm fairly certain Facebook is doing it soon too.  I wouldn't be surprised if microtransactions in gaming have trained people to find small amounts of spending on every aspect of a game to be normal and that has now been transferred over into basic interactions outside of games.  I guess what I'm saying is this is all EA's fault lol.

       Normally with goals there is a reward if the audience hits it. Like Ralph will extend the show or whatever. I can't remember a single reward I did lmfao, I just put it there and would let people fill it if they wished.

       I've been watching this 50 day bender in awe to be honest.  I put it on in the background as I game or watch Netflix and just chuckle at what a clownshow it's become.

       lol.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this from a moral highground.  I sold merch and got donos on streams so I'm a dirty little ethot as well.  But times really are changing and it wouldn't surprise me if in the next 5 years financial interactions are integrated into literally everything.  I think kids growing up now just don't care or see any issue with it like they don't see an issue with privacy either.  Just 10 years ago the idea of putting your full name out or address or phone number was considered crazy but now people put it right in their bios.The future of the internet will be a completely deanonymized, monetized, mobile experience.  Glad I got to enjoy the fun times before it hits.

       Seriously. I remember the tonka saw days and I understand why the term dead air was used with him. Recently Gunt has shown what dead air really is, so high off Xanax and liquor he falls asleep on stream multiple times. Down bad

       @JoelBodin @Jim Nothing wrong with a goal bar if something is done. Like I do a sub goal on my stream. We hit the goal we do things like horrible fanfic readings, games the fans want so on. It's been around for a while for streamers.

       One mistake that's too easy to make is to assume a trend will continue indefinitely. Things have gotten worse and probably will continue to do so but that can change. A lot could happen so have some hope. When you were a kid, the internet wasn't even a thing to worry about so who knows what new horizons await just over the hill? Hold on for TND and TTD. There's fun ahead.

       That's true.  However in this instance I think the power players see it as a massive benefit and the end user sees it as a simple way to gain revenue.  You have big tech that will push it deeper and deeper into parts of the internet, users see it as a neat benefit thinking what's the harm, and once they are accustomed to it big tech or whoever can choose to turn it off or on based on user behavior.  Basically people are being trained like animals with money instead of food.
