kind9 08/23/20 10:16:39 AM #9:	I was going to say Pimpmunkx on youtube because he basically talks about drugs and titties and often demands(jokingly, but maybe a little too often) money from his audience. Sometimes he gets hundreds of USD a stream. I actually like the guy though and I'm glad he gets paid. The people who pay him like him too. So I wouldn't call it grifting. --- https://imgur.com/NkZUeFd <cite>kind9 posted [p:943719735] in So is Inte...

YoukaiSlayer 08/23/20 3:57:33 PM #18:	Going by the definition a grifter was originally someone who operates a gambling related side show at a circus and were known for small scale swindling. Now its a swindler or con artist You could say you got scammed by a streamer/influencer thinking their fake persona was real but you'd look pretty pathetic for claiming that. --- I'm ninja (you can't see me) <cite>YoukaiSlayer posted [p:943729877] in So is Inte...

YoukaiSlayer 08/23/20 4:24:46 PM #20:	That's like calling an actor a grifter because that wasn't their real feelings. If you pay money to a streamer, you do so knowing that it's likely an act. They provide you with the content you enjoy and you choose to give them some money for that. That's not swindling. --- I'm ninja (you can't see me) <cite>YoukaiSlayer posted [p:943730800] in So is Inte...
