I don't know how many other people are with me on this, but, I believe there should at least be an option to turn off the stream on this site. If I wanted to watch a stream, I would go to twitch. As it stands now, I didn't realise the changes, and have effectively sapped my internet usage, because I had several windows open, comparing builds and such. Great site, and all, but this **** just isn't right.

Smitefire, please take that twitch stream off the main pages/god guides/anywhere else but in the smite TV streams & video section.

Yes, I created an account specifically for complaining about this, before anyone says anything about my post count.

there is an option XD

also its sad that you made an account for this, you should instead have made this account to talk about guides on this site, and discuss a bit.
if you need anything just PM or ask me when I'm streaming here

Ok, and where is this option then? I can't see it.

The pauze button on the stream?


Oh, I see. You don't understand the difference between a toggle on the stream and a pause button. No problem, I'll explain:

I don't watch the streams. I would prefer an option which would stop me from having to pause every stream each time I open a new page, or window, or tab, what-have-you.

for example: I come here if I've chosen assault and got a god I'm not used to playing, so I quickly check some guides. I don't want to have to pause 6 different streams on 6 different windows when I am quickly looking for a reference.

Make more sense big guy?

Yeah, he is kind of right, the stream does lag the site loading quite a bit. I would recommend the google chrome add on where you can automatically click on the god to go to the god's guides, but I lost the thread.

Ok, it is there. Go download it now, while it is still free.

Thanks for the help, coldhotshot. I'm glad someone could be helpful, instead of chastising me for the complaint. Kudos.

I normally use Opera, but I can run chrome just for smitefire, I guess.

Most of the problem for me was in the fact that the streams are muted when I loaded the page, and I didn't even notice they were playing... So when I had 10 different smitefire tabs open, A) It slowed my internet connection to a crazy degree, and B) is using up bandwidth which really has no place being used up.


Smitefire is a great site, but I think the stream was hastily put out, without much thought as to whether people actually WANT to see the streams. I mean, not everyone wants to, or am I absolutely wrong there?
