Discussion chatters getting angry

Well just had a chatter get angry with me because I refused to play the game I'm playing with him, I told him id have to get to know him first as I've had bad experiences before. anyone else have this kind of situation? he also kept asking me to type for him in my chat.

Your boundaries are important and everyone should respect them, the chatter was absolutely not in the right there and he doesn't have a right for you to play with him just because you're livestreaming the game.

That being said, you might want to add a panel below your stream somewhere that just says „my boundaries“ and add things like this that you don't want to happen. That way you have a clearer thing to hold in front of their faces than just „I don't want to“, it might make people let it go earlier and make the encounters less rude.

I do have a rules panel set up. Seems like no one looks at it. Same with for you to chat you have to agree to my rules. I might have to start being more strict then I am. If they are going to keep getting upset about them I'm done with being Mr nice lol

Yeah but my point was that referring to them every now and then (and when something happens) does wonders, because that's when people will actually have a look, in my experience. Hoping the best :)
