This is my final, feature length post before the superstar "last flame match".

Now alot of ppl have been asking me if my streaming success is true. And the answer is "absolutely ". Who in their right minds wouldn't want to get paid to play video games or just talk to a dedicated and loyal chat?

Now, I know these things might be awkward for alot of you and I'm positive 90% of you completely suck enough ass at video games where this just isn't a feasible option. So for you, click out this thread, this is for the 10%.

Step 1. Find a game you are good at.

You are not gonna move any needles playing a game you are dog shit at. This is the easiest step to accomplish.

Now, I vividly remember the unitards here saying Fortnite was a kids game, but in 2025, Fort is played by everyone and ZB is clustered with more adults then kids. Fortnite is the biggest game in the world with the exception of CoD and I highly doubt CoD's appeal is greater then fort any more. But, to be honest, I highly doubt anybody here besides me would be good at fortnite in 2025. You have to be dedicated and learn new techniques to keep up, something I just don't see in this sad, low skill set crowd here.

Now, you can't play minecraft or roblox. Those are truly kids games and you would look like a creeper. You can't play rpgs until you have a decent sized audience, nobody is tuning in to watch you beat the third dungeon boss blindly, you can't play tetris because there's a competitive community already established.

So what game should you play? GTA5.
Don't believe Rockstar, the reason GTA6 isn't out is because 5 is still huge. It's a good game to start building a community if you don't have the skills to play fort.

Step 2. Get sponsors
Try and get every single sponsor you can.sure, they're not going to give you money when you have 2 viewers, but they sure as shit will give you coupons. I got a sponsor by a mid level energy drink that gave me an 80% coupon if I bought a case and a year later I'm getting paid for putting their logo on my feed. Sponsors make everything easier. I two box my streams and one of my rigs was free with the best shit on the market at the time.

Step 3. Be what your audience needs

This one is simple.
I'm a decent fort player who always plays with subs/follows. I'm mildly attractive and I have a "streamer" voice. Ppl come to my streams for fun, it's never rage bait bullshit. I don't talk politics and I'm not an edgelord. This is how I got successful and have over 10k followers. I'm always grateful to those who watch.

Now I know ol Garrity or however you spell his name has the whole streamer set up, but I can tell you with full confidence he will never be successful. He sounds like a backwoods, inbred hillbilly, he looks like a creeper, and he just isn't interesting. Maybe if he got a unique vtuber character and a voice changer he might have a shred of success, but I doubt it.

You have to be relatable, not off putting and creepy.

Step 4. Grind to partnership

If you have to stream 10 hour days 7 days a week, do it. Shit isn't just going to be handed to you. You have to understand, streamers have marketing agencies behind them who pay a shit load of money to streaming platforms so their streamers get views and ad Rev. Twitch is notorious for their 3 to five minute ad blocks and those christmas ad blocks are worth around 20 bucks each. Grind to partner so that money is going to you. Also, get a creator code. I made almost 2k last month just on my creator code.

Good luck.

I forgot where I was posting for a second, I wanted to avoid confusion and shouting.
There's this old tale of when Roddy Piper was wrestling he would buy young wrestlers with potential food to gain their trust while telling them they didn't have a shot at the big time.

Me? I'm the opposite.

Streaming is fun as fuck once you pass the partner threshold and is easy money.

Roddy was an "adopted” Oregon guy, well loved in the Portland area, due to his generosity.

Gary got sponsored by "Ensure" the nutrional drink that provies all your daily vitamins.

The big youtube video game click bait is "The prologue to Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Broke Me!" Sure the woman streamers and youtubers at least were sincere but when you got all these guys supposebly wiping away tears it looks fake and staged, or you got Iron Mouse with her voice that sounds like helium being pushed out an anus at great velocity giving game commentary, it just can't be taken seriously.

Yeah......

From personal experience, Roddy Piper was a piece of shit. The only time I met him he was pilled up, stank like warm asshole, and had his handler demand the autograph money like a fucking idiot.

I have zero respect for cripples who became crippled on their own stupidity who are mean to kids. Piper was that. He came into the convention fucked up, had a can of beer always at his lips, and was saying rude shit to kids while his eyes were rolling back in his head.

Ppl have bad days, but if you don't want to be there, then don't be there. If you need to be there, have some respect for the kids in front of you.

COE33 is such a meh game. I thought Metaphor was so good, tho.

Last I heard about Gary he tightened his bandana too much on his walking stick while hunting "coons" for supper. I guess ensure is a better alternative to rubbing corn bread on his hair to Grease a pan. Good for him.

Iron Mouse was the big deal a couple years ago. I haven't heard much after she was on kais stream. Not a fan of that voice, either.

Portland is a small market town, with one big league sports team. So all celebrity lives matter, he did get a little good publicity for an occasional good deed, he wasn’t highly visible but he’d be in the news once in a long while, which is more coverage than I ever get.

It’s crazy cuz when I first started seeing streamers pop up, I was like wait a minute. Didn’t Poofer start that shit? lol
I fucking wish.

I vividly remember streaming Tie Fighter on Justin.TV which is now Twitch back in the day to around 40 ppl which in 2025 terms would be around 4k.

Never should have started bartending. I knew streaming was the next big thing only because theres alot of ppl who would rather watch ppl play then play themselves.....

Well, Piper was supposedly raped into pro wrestling by Pat Patterson, so I can't understand whatever demons he had that he was fighting his entire life. Legend has it he lived the ric flair lifestyle getting blitzed every night without the complete lack of responsibility Flair displayed, so that's a positive.

Still, and I say this from my own perspective, being fucked up in public isn't cool, it isn't "Roddy being Roddy", it's pathetic especially when it's a grown ass man acting like a clown.

I went to a wrestling convention to get Autographs from broken down human beings who used their bodies as crash test dummies at some second rate vfw hall only because I grew up watching these guys do all this stupid shit to entertain strangers. Most of them could barely walk and half of them had walkers with the tennis balls on the legs. And the sad fact was the only one of them who was a complete fucking moron was Piper.

Bruno Sammartino just waved his hand at the guy in disgust. Greg Valentine just shook his head.

Never meet washed up pro wrestlers.

I never really paid attention to the wrestling stuff, just tried to listen to the culture I lived inside of so I could better trick people into buying a car from me, after they surrendered alll will upon stepping into my octagonal car lot allegory

You still get plenty of coverage (balls slapping up against your chin).

Don't a lot of these washed up wrasslers end up pimping themselves at conventions where they sell their autograph for 30 bucks and can only manage to scrawl an "X", or worse they end up puking on the pile of photographs and still use them anyway so some kid goes home with a soggy, smelly photo with a smeared "X" scrawled on it.

Better off doing Slim Jim commercials like Ric Flair was doing, at least that is a little more dignified.

Yes, and make good money doing it.

Autographs now are usually a hundo minimum if they were a huge name back in the day. Hogan, who allegedly can't speak any more after a surgery a few days ago, wanted 500 for a flat which was ridiculous considering you didn't see him sign it, they were all pre-signed, but for the low low price of 1200 bucks, you would get your shit signed in front of you and a photo.

Hogan, don't need the money. He won ridiculous bank off that lawsuit and still gets checks from wwe probably until the end of time.

Last time I went to a wrestling con one of the bushwackers was snoring and Marty jannety was fighting some fat guy over an electric scooter. One wrestler who supposedly turned his life around was smoking outside looking for drugs.

I will say tho, some of the women wrestlers are still fine as fuck. Torrie Wilson and Kelly Kelly are fucking gorgeous with Kelly Kelly being a grade A piece of ass. If she would have stood up I would have sniffed the seat.
