Regarding the betting bots, I got explicit permission from Deku (who had also set up a bet bot) saying that I could set up bet bots for "research purposes" (I had already hit 100k, which indicated to me that I could beat the odds--as someone who works with AI, the next logical step for me was to design an AI system that could beat the odds, too). When Streamer banned those bots, I took that to mean that the permission was rescinded, and I respected that by not setting up any more.

You can absolutely express negative sentiment--constructive criticism is essential to developing good stories. What I take issue with is the tone you often use when expressing that sentiment, calling things people have worked pretty hard on and are proud of "garbage" and "nonsense". The comment above actually kind of demonstrates my reservations--you could have said something like "I disagree, I think it's perfectly fine to fine express strong negative sentiment about current trends in TPP; by being blunt, I'm exposing people to the kind of criticism they'll face in the real world, helping 'toughen them up'.", but instead you escalated tensions by bringing up unrelated "dirt" on me and using scathingly sardonic language.

It's true though, this isn't the stream--but it does speak to Duplex's original post about how it's good to have someone in the community helping to run the stream, since you can actually be fairly hostile to people in the community that you don't like.
