Dear Nostalrius community and its moderators,
I now know that I made a pretty pathetic impression in my last thread. My twitch profile looked like a complete joke written by a 12 year old. I want to let you guys know that I am here to learn from my mistakes and improve myself as a person and as a twitch streamer. I have updated my profile and have done away with all of the dank memes.
I would really like to thank user Ohr for his very helpful post on how to make my stream more attractive for my viewers, and how to handle trolls and stream snipers gracefully.
I still do not believe stream sniping is an ethical way of ganking a player. It does not allow the streamer a fair chance to play the game.
My sincerest apologies to the community and the moderators for sounding like a pathetic whiny 12 year old. It is my hope moving forward to have better relations with moderators and the community. Let us celebrate the wonderful game that is world of warcraft vanilla. A big thank you to the powers that be for making this experience possible once again.
with sincerity,
Alec Ward AKA tsunamiforever

One has to admit his mistakes and learn from them. Well done.

I've been sniped and trolled in every online game i've ever streamed from league of legends to nostalrius. If you can't handle being ganked, either don't stream leveling or get a delay on. This is not a matter for the GMs to be involved. Doesn't matter if you stream or not, anyone can be targetted.
I can hop on my level5 alliance warrior do a quick /who, find the zone where the person is in and go kill him, since I know the quest hubs and generally where people quest in every zone, so finding them would be just as easy as ghosting a stream.
When I got camped on stream (I was level 35 at the time) repeatedly by alliance guild called <Friends>, I didn't bitch, moan and report, I hopped on my alliance warrior with a quick /who, and a message saying "You're next" and camped 10 of their guilds lowbies for 30 minutes each.
It's a PvP realm and being a streamer does not give you special privileges to become ungankable. Imagine if every streamer on nostalrius (theres hundreds of them now) put in reports every time someone killed them twice in a row. The GM's would get swamped by bullshit requests that don't even matter and shouldn't even exist in the first place.
with sincerity,
Ohr, Guildmaster of <Malice> AKA the person who's gonna stream ganking you while you stream.

Why stream though? especially on a PVP server. It's almost like streamers think they're important and people should watch them play a video game.
