Twitch - AlexandraBotez
Attractive and charismatic, she's a Women's FIDE Master and mostly streams chess (playing with people and viewers, sub battles, doing commentaries) though sometimes Fortnite, Poker, or Just Chatting. Alexandra has been doing it for two years and recently went full time streamer for a year-long full send try at it.
She is very good at keeping up and replying to chat while playing games (but even then she's at least 200 ELO worse playing this way, which applies to other chess streamers too).
A fairly large following (for a chess streamer) her chat remains remarkably civil because she has a large number of mods that keep chat under control. There are new people coming in constantly and asking the same questions, for which there are programmed answers from Moobot (the Twitch customizable bot that most streamers use).
Inappropriate comments are deleted fairly quickly and, although Alexandra is quite forgiving if you troll a fair amount, excessively bad behavior gets you banned. I like the modding, it seems on par with RPGnet though the policies differ a bit.
Overall my favorite channel on Twitch. A great streamer, an active chat with a lot of good people (and a lot of annoying people but I block them), and lots of mods patrolling.
