So this will be a fun post, to start off I would like to apologise, apologise to all those people who were actually trying to help me amongst the trolling, I reacted badly at the time and I am truly sorry for this.
Onto the good stuff now, so as of today I am unemployed, so I am going to try and make a real go at full-time streaming coupled with sc2 and an event weekend here and there of WoW and maybe some morning streaming of it to.
So the plan is as follows:
Regular Streaming Schedule (some +/- time)
Viewer Interaction
Highlight vids
Development goals
On stream coaching (as regularly as I can get it)
For Starcraft 2 this means I will be back to my original goal of at least 100 games a week, I currently do have a torn ligament (partly the reason of jobloss) in my wrist, which does mean me playing hurts a fair amount, but I tried playing last night, If I do replay analysis and write down my big key mistakes between games, gives my wrist a bit of time to chill.
So again I am sorry to those people who have done nothing but try to help me, hopefully you guys can give the stream and myself a second chance.
-BIG NOTE-
Build alterations are to be messaged to me, mainly because it gives me BO in a list with no disruptions and it is in a better layout.

+1 Rogue, huge uphill battle, you'd be lucky to even get 10-20 viewers(real talk). At least dreams are free, i guess :/
- from a nobody on the forum, casually chiming in ;D
umm just incase you missed it btw, by full-time streaming I just meant in relation to the hours I put in.
@jdgaga, most days i do stream sc2 id easily get that 10-20 so its not really lucky on that point mate
@people worried about my wrist, i can feel what hurts and what doesnt, if it gets to the point it hurts too much to play ill stop, but for now i want something to pass the time + i dont get much of a choice anyway, not working means i help around the house, cleaning, which is also a lot of lifting more weight then what i was doing at work (garage is a mess)

good luck man. If you enjoy doing something then do it. There will always be people that try to put you down. Don't take it personal though. At the end of the day as long as it's making you happy. But yeh still look after yourself. They say all is good in moderation.
Also not sure I get the point of the preceding comment (pic)

All the best to you once again. Like what the people before me have said already, real life > game. So recovery should be priority for you now instead of making contents and stuff like that. Scene's pretty saturated already so you really really really really need to up your game and offer something different. My constructive criticism for you is that so far, there's nothing that stands out yet. But I'm confident if you really do think hard enough and try well enough, this might work out for you.
What is with quoting a picture of me smiling holy shit xD
@Ravenscout, seeing someone happy makes your night, thats great dude.
@Elusory, the thing is, I have already stopped trying to think of what I do differently hence I haven't actually been streaming much, I honestly don't see the point.
So to those lovely people who thought it would be great fun to always troll me and be real dicks to me, mainly because you enjoy bandwagoning with the "popular kids" thanks, you honestly have crushed my spirit from even bothering to try and get good at casting, good at making vlogs and for the most part wanting anything to do with the community or sc2 in general. So thanks guys, with this said BSG Open tonight will be my last cast.

Ok real talk here Fede, I think you have a serious problem of needing to be the victim of every situation you get your self in. Just look at the posts in this thread.
Supportive / supportive advice - 12 posts
Neutral / neutral advice - 3 posts
Negative / troll - 2 posts
You are never going to get overwhelming positive feedback for anything you do in life. You have 12 well known SEA community members supporting you in this thread and 3 wishing you well but advising you to be cautious but still trying to help you out.
The only thing that could be taken as a troll is a screenshot from a full time ROOT member. If I was to make a thread about wanting to get into casting there is no ******* way Petraeus would post in my thread because I'm a nobody, you should be proud you at least have some name recognition. I don't know Petraeus but my 1st opinion was that he was showing off your overlay, obviously the other dude laughing at it wasn't great.
I have only been a member of there forums for ~6 months but from my point of view is a serious pattern developing here. Almost everyone wants you to be successful in what ever you do, nobody here wants you to further injure your wrist.
I think you have to be realistic about your goals. Don't try to be Artosis then get upset when you're not there after 2 weeks.
