Tinakitten pleads with fans to \u201crespect boundaries\u201d after Valkyrae cries on stream Twitter: Tinakitten, Twitter: Valkyrae, InnerslothDuring a somewhat now-infamous Among Us stream that ended with Rachel \u2018Valkyrae\u2019 Hofstetter in tears, fellow streamer Tinakitten has asked fans to \u201crespect boundaries.\u201d After a recent series of Among Us games ended in Valkyrae breaking down after her chat took a harmless joke in a particularly vicious direction, the 100 Thieves star has made the decision to make her chat members-only until further notice. During the game, Valkyrae loudly proclaimed that \u201cLeslie\u2019s life matters\u201d in response to her teammate Leslie \u2018fuslie\u2019 Fu continually being the target of Imposter attacks. Sadly, this snowballed into some viewers in the chat ridiculing the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. While the content creator took a break to compose herself, teammate Tinakitten took the time to educate her stream on how best to deal with situations where we see our favorite streamers struggle live. Tinakitten asks viewers to \u201cnot say anything\u201d As soon as Rae showed signs of being upset, chatters immediately went to other creator\u2019s streams in an attempt to spread the word. While all of this was done with good intentions at heart, Tina sat down with her viewers to explain why this isn\u2019t the best way to combat the situation. \u201cTo be truly respectful, just don\u2019t say anything,\u201d she pleads. \u201cIt feels uncomfortable if you\u2019re, like, spreading it to the friends and stuff.\u201d \u201cTo be honest, when I express what I consider too much emotion to be displayed publicly and I\u2019m embarrassed, the last thing I want is for my community to make it bigger than it is, especially when I didn\u2019t want it to happen in the first place. \u201cTo just be respectful, send her support directly if you\u2019d like to, but it\u2019s really weird if you go to other streamers chats and talk about it, because it\u2019s inappropriate. I know you guys have her best interest at heart, but you need to not gossip. Be sweet to her, but respect the boundaries of others.\u201d Tina clearly knows that Rae\u2019s fans\u2019 reactions to the situation were prompted by good intentions, but she makes an important point regarding boundaries online. Valkyrae will now move forward with her chat exclusively in members-only, which should help calm tensions for the time being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
