Why have TTV in you're name and not be live?

[Jhonquack]

I like to go to TTV's stream to say GG but they are never live?!

You're right it does not but tbh nobody want's to watch someones who's bad but that's just me lmao

That's the idea, to make you think they're good. Intimidation.

Me watching the ttv get caught in a loop by a m1 killer in 15 seconds (they are intimidating)

Well, that explains why they don't livestream

I always remove ttv from my name when I'm not streaming. I feel it's discourteous to waste someone's time if they feel inclined to check. I guess it's "free advertising" even if you're not live, though. The most egregious stuff is when people haven't streamed for months with TTV in their name. I mostly see globes do this. They have less name freedom than steam users.

Exactly like I feel the same way and I do the same thing idk why people don't.

As someone who streamed and played DBD, adding TTV to your name is free advertising. It is insanely difficult to get viewers if you... well... don't advertise. Some people get lucky but most don't. My thought process was as simple as that, free advertising. Nothing more, nothing less.

Results were good too. I'd get regular follows and of those a few would come to future streams. It did lure in toxic survivors regularly (regardless of which side I played), and most of those had to be banned since there's no reasoning with entitled children, but they did provide some entertainment for my chat at times.

All in all, having TTV in my name while being a streamer helped. Even if I was offline I still received follows and VOD views. It would have made LESS sense for me to NOT have TTV in my name at that time.

Now... why do some people have TTV in their names and either not have a channel or just never stream, period? Well... I've always assumed either as a joke, attempt to look 'pro' (cuz all TTVs are pros, right? hahaha... eh...), or as a jab against those of us who use/used TTV in our names.

My only thought when I see a survivor with TTV is "100% SWF", as that was often the case with survivor TTVers. If I was a killer, I knew I'd have to be in the mood for what would likely be a coordinated SWF with a good chance of toxicity. If I was playing survivor, I knew that I was NOT part of the SWF and therefore had a great chance of being sandbagged.

I use it like free advertising, if someone are enough good and chill in game, then why no ? But surely i not obliged stream every my play

Why does a ttv have to constantly be streaming for you?
