How to improve your chat experience on the upcoming regionals with BTTV
Hello
So we all remember last year. Blizzcon. All those teams fighting for the title in an epic battle. And what does chat do?
!Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall !Cho'Gall
The !Cho'Gall spam was even encouraged by the mod there.
Now I only watched into the Philippines finals shortly and my fear already got true. !portrait spam.
What can we do to improve our chat experience? Get Better Twitch TV. This is a plugin for Chrome which adds a lot of additional options for Twitch. One of them is a filter.
You click on the cog wheel at the bottom of the chat > Set Blacklist Keywords > Enter !* > Profit
Hope this helps some people who want to enjoy the regionals without constant spam and maybe didn't know about BTTV before. It also adds a lot of fun emotes :D
See you in Twitch chat
Edit: Here is the > Link < and it is also available for other browsers. 12 minutes until the tournament starts. HYPE!
Edit2: Thanks @vivameiguo for "if you blacklist !* it will block ALL ! commands. * serves as a wildcard" Great tip.
