For a second there when I read HTML Twitch I hoped it would be the player and not the chat. It's annoying how flash in firefox steals the focus and I cannot use any shortcuts like ctrl+t/w/n.
Youtube used to do the same thing but since they switched to HTML5, twitch is the only website where I still encounter this.

Nice. Didn't help that idiots loves to spam the chat every time someone says anything remotely funny. :O

Doubt I'll turn it on though.

About time for the chat. Next step for Twitch should be HTML 5 video cause i always having issues with flash playback. It just keeps buffering and it doesn't matter what level of video i watch it even buffers on mobile
