Multichat (combining chat from multiple site) and how it perceived

[Bikerbarbiehu]

Viewers/Members of the public I have an honest question for you:
There are days when I stream on multiple sites. Mainly because I'm fairly new and I cannot stand idle time, so I really want to make sure there is always interaction ... It is technically possible to integrate all the chats from the various platforms into my stream, so everybody could see every comment from every platform.

As a viewer, would it be great to see and understand everything that is going in (i.e. see the chat from every room) or would it just annoy you knowing that I am multi-streaming and you are not interested?

Models: do you know of any TOC that would class this as advertising other forums and would kick my a** for it? Maybe any experience?

Thanks in advance for your opinions!

I can't remember anything like this being in the ToS I've read from various sites (provided the platforms aren't identified in chat), on the other hand they can just ban you regardless, assuming you get found out.

I was working on this a while ago, provided you set up a banned word list for the site names and remove any other references to being on other sites there shouldn't be an issue tos wise (best bet is to ask the sites directly though, as even if its not strictly against tos, they might take issue with it). In the end I ended up dropping the idea though, it's a fair amount of development work and for me there just wasnt going to be enough return from it to warrant the time it would take. I have never had anyone complain about multi streaming, members seem to know that thats a thing, and if multiple people on different sites join a convocation on the same topic, a simple solution is to just read their message before you respond to it, that way everyone has full context of the convocation.

Thank you for the feedback guys!

I guess there could be a complication if a model operates different prices on different sites. Also gold vs tokens could be confusing in one big giant group chat.

Good points, thank you!
