What are your thoughts on a live stream for the forum.
Im thinking live ( & recorded ) tutorials, general questions and banter, and more
Let me know what you think. Thanks

Kind of pointless. Tutorials are easier followed in text.

For you, maybe. Some people prefer a video over a text block.

And this isn't a bad idea. Maybe the live streams could be recorded and uploaded to the YouTube channel as well?

Meh. Recorded may be a better idea than live shows.

If I live steam it, people can ask live questions just incase I skip through something

Then it takes away posting from the forum. Say you posted a recorded tutorial, people can ask questions and comment in the thread. It's like a shoutbox with video.

Fair point, but its a similar issues with youtube videos, people can just comment instead of come to the forums.

Ill still post all the code up on the forums etc and link it, but I think adding a live stream is a bit different.

you can pause videos and having it done infront of you can be easyer

i think this is a great idea it would be like staff meatings just with a load of other people asking questions
