I've rarely watched any of the livestreams, but on the rare occasions that I did, I hid the chat panel for the duration. I've always found chat in any streaming situation to be rarely interesting and almost always unpleasantly distracting. That said, while I don't think it's the SimGurus' fault because, as @Gordy mentioned, doing livestreams isn't really their job. I do think the streams could be better planned, possibly with a single designated team to handle them, maybe with occasional extra guests (if singular details about a pack are required, for example). And yes, trash talk helps no one, no matter who does it or if the underlying reasons might be based on valid concerns.
