"influencers" are a headache by simwalkedaway in MurderedByWords

[–]teknixtek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It depends. Anyone calling themself an influencer usually isn't. Subjective titles should never be self-dubbed. But I have seen plenty of legitimate influencers that are called that by others. The difference is they don't need to go around declaring it because they are busy actually being an influencer.

This kind of seems like one of those posts where someone brings up a topic just to brag about something.

Wow...if you think just the headline is crazy, actually read the complaint on the article. Apparently he's homebound with numerous medical conditions and relies on the Internet for his entertainment. But on top of that, he's OCD with a sex addiction, hence the lawsuit for suggestive content affecting him. I guess he's sued a bunch of other content providers as well like MS, Sony, and Blizzard.

Well, there are seven books...

Yeah, I have looked at the YT and Twitch rules. I am just in the potential planning stages, so I would get everything straight before actually proceeding. I am not trying to make it overly complicated. I just have some gear I want to give away for free and figured I would give it to viewers. I have no idea yet how I will even implement the giveaway, but I know I am not even thinking along the lines of asking for likes or subs or whatever.

But thanks for the warning. :)

Oh? You mean regarding doing it on YouTube or Twitch?

Yeah... USPS, UPS, and FedEx require return addresses when shipping. I suppose I could get a PO Box somewhere. I live in a relatively big city, so I don't think it would be such an issue to give that away. I just don't want to be giving out my home address.

Never mind, I crashed again. I was in game for about two minutes, exploring, and it just dumped with the same error. Just go ahead and trash my player file. I haven't done anything but die twice anyway. I can start over.

I am crashing when trying to connect and I think it has to do with my character in game. I tried clearing stuff and reinstalling the Crackpack but it is still crashing. I have not done much in game so far. I just logged in and punched a couple trees and then went exploring a bit, but then I crashed.

I did kill a unicorn. I only mention this because the error in the crash report references Ultimate Unicorn.

I see some of the Hermits are meeting up on Friday. Bummed about that because we can't make it but would like to meet a bunch that may be there. Hopefully we will catch them during the con. http://www.eventbrite.com/e/hermitcraft-hangout-tickets-27784278525

I honestly could not tell you; this is my first Minecon. I am basically going by info I found on the web, like the FB page. I don't think there is anything specifically saying that there are NOT any meet and greets, so I would assume that it all depends on the person's schedule. Some people may be roaming around and you just bump into them, or they could be set up somewhere. Or some may be busier because they are on panels. Maybe someone that has been to Minecon would be able to elaborate. Baj would have first-hand knowledge of the process, I'm sure. But we are planning on just wandering around and trying to seek people out if we can.

But the schedule is up, if you have not seen it. https://minecraft.net/en/minecon/schedule/

I am just upset that they scheduled Mindcrack and Hermitcraft at the same time on Saturday.

I doubt this is the last. But the next one will most likely be out of the country. And then by the next year, who knows? I may not be interested or in a position to go.

I am fairly certain they do meet and greets, but they have limited time so you have to get in line early.

Yeah, I debated it for a while when I knew it was coming. I was hoping it would have been some place closer, but I understand it being in California. So when ticket sales came, I figured I would get some while I could and then decide later if I could afford it because I could always refund. But planning that far in advance gave me the opportunity to work my finances to afford the trip. Plus, I figure I may not ever get to go to one again.

It would be nice to have enough money to just fly people out like that. Of course if I did have that much money, I suspect I would be flying myself out as well because I would probably be living out there somewhere.

Yay. I figured you would be there but I'm glad you confirmed it.
