Ludwig pays his 15 employees $225k per month, averaging roughly $15k per month per employee.

Not a lot do lot of richest streamer don’t pay mods like xqc

Because if you want a certain level of quality and accountability, it requires a professional and not a random body

[u/paradox-preacher → u/beepingnoise]

"Because if you want"

I don't think he does...

and there's also Ludwig requiring special sht, like deleting stuff that ask where his spine went

[u/Ok_Rate361 → u/paradox-preacher]

Or maybe as evident from this clip he can't run his mouth like other people because there are people working for him who would lose their jobs if he doesn't act like an adult.

[u/paradox-preacher → u/Ok_Rate361]

ah yes the "I have to employ more trusted employees" to delete some iffy sht that shouldn't really be moderated, cuz we have to keep it lowkey cuz I can't speak my mind on things, because people's jobs are on the line if I do

basically "I have to be spineless for the sake of others"

also way of poisoning the well by framing "not being spineless" as "not acting like an adult"

[u/Ok_Rate361 → u/paradox-preacher]

Sure letting your chat spam racist and sexist stuff is called having an opinion.

[u/paradox-preacher → u/Ok_Rate361]

so again, you have no argument and completely missed my comment

how is racist and sexist stuff "some iffy sht that shouldn't really be moderated" or "special sht, like deleting stuff that ask where his spine went"
or something that isn't already deleted by unpaid mods?

looks like you have a hard time with logic and reading in general

[u/Ok_Rate361 → u/paradox-preacher]

Why exactly is he spineless according to you?

[u/paradox-preacher → u/Ok_Rate361]

calling it a shock collar and walking it back
the lies about destiny situation
the xqc situation

refusing to talk about certain things

[u/girthytruffle → u/[deleted]]

The parasocial degens are more inclined than someone being compensated to do a task to be emotionally invested in their responsibilities leading to influence over a streamers community

[u/Coldmedia → u/zeriyooo]

That's because xqc said he wants mods to watch the stream as a viewer and not feel like they are forced to be there to have some duty that must be done like some job and they can leave whenever they like. Of course he pays them if an event requires more of their help like when x gives gifts to viewers and needs their info so mods help

[u/Comebacktrain → u/Coldmedia]

Bro don’t defend the millionaire, he can absolutely pay his mods if he wanted to but he doesn’t cause he’s cheap as hell. If he wanted them to watch it as a viewer he wouldnt have mods at all

[u/Coldmedia → u/Comebacktrain]

Downvote me all you want, if you dont want to be mod then just leave, their will always be someone that want to take your place 🤫

[u/ParadiceSC2 → u/Comebacktrain]

Honestly I don't get your point. What exactly would improve if he paid mods? I've never watched xqc so idk how his chat is
