100 Stars for the ghost pepper
During a slow Live, Kai said he'd eat a ghost pepper if chat sent 100 Stars. Chat delivered in four minutes.
What happened
The dares escalated every stream: hot sauce shots, ice baths, worse.
The Lives that featured dares were marked as not monetizable, and Kai's account got a warning for soliciting engagement.
The rule behind it
Asking for Stars, gifts or payment in exchange for extreme or risky behavior is a prohibited behavior. Content built on it can't earn.

Getting paid by following the rules
- Thank Star senders by name and give them a say in which game comes next.
- Set Star goals tied to safe rewards, like a Q&A or a charity stream.
- Keep stunts off the menu, even as a joke.
Support should buy your attention, not your safety.
