NOTICE! - WARNING!
This stream can contain on-screen effects, such as flashing lights and other intense imagery, which may be harmful to those with photo-sensitive epilepsy. Broadcasts may also contain content with strong language and chat suitable for adults, therefore, viewer and listener discretion is strongly advised.
Chat Guidelines:
1.. Be polite, courteous and friendly towards your fellow chatters and the DJs!
This one's simple to understand- treat others as you would like them to treat you! if you are rude to a DJ, how can you expect them to play your requests? no-one likes a rude participant!
2.. Please, NO TROLLING!!
Trolls just aggravate chatters and drive visitors away.
3.. Please do not post weblinks in Chat.
Poaching and/or posting weblinks (including YouTube links) in the Chat is NOT allowed. Links are blocked from view (WRN staff and channel operators are exempt).
4.. Please refrain from excessive explicit language.
Explicit language and/or "role-playing" in the Chat has a negative effect, overall, and reflects poorly on the channel (and Kick's) character and image; This includes using nicks that are deemed offensive and/or distasteful.
Questions and Answers:
Here are some frequently-asked questions..
and ANSWERS ! :)
Q: What happens on this stream?
A: This is the "Master Control Studio" for WARP Radio and you can see me as I do my duties such as DJ'ing, hosting other DJ's from all over the world, working on various equipment and/or just screwing around!
I play music (including the keyboard) and sometimes, I play video games and other times, I build stuff or take stuff apart, etc.
I try my best to interact with you, the viewers, whenever I can.
Q: Why are you so close to the screen?
A: I suffer eye conditions known as Nystagmus and Retinal Hypoplasia (Hypoplastic of the Retinas); These conditions cause a severe focus disorder and has left scar tissue/a film on my retinas. The left eye is dead (virtual unusable) and the right eye has a visual acuity of about 20/500+, from center to right (about 20 degrees), therefore, I'm technically BLIND (my vision is similar to looking through a piece of thin cellophane and/or wax paper) and glasses/contacts can NOT correct this condition.
Q: I see your lips moving but I can not hear you; why are you talking to yourself or noone?
A: If you notice the big ON AIR sign is NOT on (lit up), that means the MIC is OFF (muted),
This is, probably, because I'm talking on the phone or to others in the room. In short, if the big red ON AIR sign is lit up, then you should be able to hear me, otherwise, I'm having a private conversation [on the phone usually]. and when I'm ready to talk to YOU, the big ON AIR sign will be brightly lit up and the mic will be LIVE. (in the broadcast biz, this is called a "TALLY" and the same goes for those lights you see on cameras in a TV studio as well)
Q: I see multiple names and responses from
a single account name, why is that and what does it mean?
A: You are actually looking at a "relay bot" which forwards the chat from our website chat portal ( https://irc.warp-radio.com ). The format is: "account name, user/nickname, chat
