what does gebating mean?
@Felthry do you mean "jebaited"?
@noiob maybe? I've heard it said, not seen it written
@Felthry it's just a variant of "baited" because someone named Jebailey is the face of the emote on Twitch
@noiob like why do people just use weird twitch-specific jargon for things
@Felthry because they're capital G Gamers? idk I never found any appeal in spamming memes in twitch chat, it's basically a stadium audience but worse in every way
@noiob @Felthry there's actually a weird bit of history in this
Jebailey was a member of the fighting game community before he started doing more organizational stuff, and left buttons on his stick deliberately unmapped
so if anyone seemed like they were listening too hard to the buttons he was pressing, he'd deliberately press one of the unmapped buttons on his stick to throw them off, and that's where the term Jebaited came from
the emote came much later
@KS @Felthry huh, I had just checked know your meme which doesn't really say anything
