Streaming - Unfortunately, I was defeated.

Hello,

I'd like to preface this by saying that I've just started Streaming this game on the Nostalrius server. I've had one heck of a ride so far, and I've really enjoyed it. The people have been great, and I'm really surprised at how great the community is. I haven't been streaming for long, but I've slowly been creeping in more hours. It's been great seeing my views increase, and a lot of my viewers actually came to me and helped me do whatever I'd be working on. Some of them have even given me some gold to get my mount that I've been working towards.

However... tonight, was a little different. I logged in, collected a few viewers, and really started to enjoy myself. But.. I unfortunately had to spend the last 3 hours of the night's stream being "stream-sniped". My viewers sadly dwindle down to 2-3 viewers (which I assume were my snipers) because all I could do was wait for my 2 minute death cooldown, only to be killed again. They saw that I was farming elementals in Arathi Highlands, camped me there for an hour until I hearthed to Stormwind. A while after, I thought I was cleared so I moved to questing in STV. They waited. Watched as I was travelling to STV, followed, and continued to camp me there.

They logged into my stream, identified themselves, and tried to get me to comply to "their terms" of removing my logo of a turtle I had made specifically for this stream. I paid some of my real money to get someone to draw me a logo. I wasn't about to comply... and who knew if they were actually going to stop. Unfortunately... I succumbed and had to shut down my stream.

I've looked everywhere to report this, as I'm sure Nostalrius Begins wouldn't like their streamers to be continuously harassed like this. Unfortunately, I really couldn't find anywhere.

The offenders were:

Relan
Orc Warlock
<Salty Dogs>

Aylmoa
Troll Shaman
<Titans of War>

Aerobatics
Human Rogue
<TEAM BRING IT>

If there's any better place to communicate this to the GMs, please let me know.

Thank you,
Turtomatic

This is hilarious. Stream sniping is the best thing since the rat flute.

They weren't breaking any rules. Play on the PVE server if you don't want to engage in world PVP.

Some people on Nost have way too much time and have such a poor and boring life that they have nothing better to do.
Your post just got you ten more teenagers sniping you.
Just add a 30 min delay to your stream :idea:

Player harassment is not allowed by the Terms of use. Unfortunatly "The act of "stream sniping" is not a violation" ...

PvP on PvP server.
If you dont like it go to PvE server.
I will try to make sure you get camped every time you stream from now on :)

Sorry to hear that buddy, that's a real dick move even though it doesn't break any rules.

Just add a 30 min delay to your stream :idea:


Maybe something like this is a good idea? And is it not possible to ban people from your stream?

Banning people from your stream, at least on twitch, only makes it to where they cannot type in chat. They can still view the stream.
