I have every right to decline a collaboration with or without reasoning.

I pride myself on honesty; I will always give my honest feedback and input, both negative and positive, on any kind of collaborative project. It doesn't matter if money is involved or not. You reached out to me, and I will give my feedback.

As honest as I am, I value mutual honesty and genuine connections over "just business."

Why are streamer collaborations not allowed?
The biggest reason is that I don't want to deal with interpersonal conflict due to association.
Another reason is that I don't want to be seen as either competition and / or opportunity.

What are offline collaborations?
In short words, they're literally just hang outs where no one is streaming. I don't mind if you stream our games, but I will not be streaming.
