cool hope to see some more EMC streams! out of curiosity, is there a specific reason the 18+ rule was added? i think thats new?
Awesome, love to see more streamers for waffle to add to the wiki , Most Streaming platforms are 13+, I’m assuming it has something to do with player privacy.
It used to be 18+ for use of voice. We recently decided that not using voice is not something we want in our streaming, so we need 18+.
I'm very excited to see more content creators on EMC! There are so many opportunities on this wonderful server, and I can't wait for the Stream Team to continue entertaining us!
As the purpose of the stream team is to promote EMC, streaming of EMC should be the focus during scheduled streaming slots. Additional game streaming is still allowed, though we wouldn't be advertising those streams.
