the thread is about streamcheating really..

The aforementioned sniper in this thread was slinging insults and matching over and over -- why else would they be doing that if not to also watch the stream to get a reaction? That's why people bully.

If you can't implement a delay or other technical features to stop it you just have to stop laddering for practice and find a friend to play some legit games.

Everyone knows about this issue. The fact is: Trolls gonna Trolls, Cheaters gonna Cheat, Losers gonna Lose, and Winners gonna win. The quicker you learn that, and forget about the Bullshit, the better your life will be.

As for the thread, it's pointless because everyone knows who the stream snipers are, and we all hate them. It's not gonna stop them from stream sniping.
In order to move forward, we must rid ourselves of that which holds us back. Check out my stream and give me tips! twitch.tv/intotheskyy

Stream sniping is a lot of fun, please don't act like ladder actually matters. Who are you to take that fun away from people?

Who cares, this is the internet there are always going to be those types of people. Making this thread is giving this person recognition is exactly what he wants.

Deal with it.

Use a delay or don't stream. This is really a non-issue and it isn't Blizzard's job to monitor streaming and enforce rules based on arbitrary behavior outside the game. If someone wants to make money off streaming their gameplay, they have to either deal with stream snipers or eliminate the possibility of someone actually sniping them.

the reason why they stream snipe is to get attention, by making threads like this ur just giving them wat they want(until now i had never heard about this swoozy kid).. best course of action is to ignore them until someone figures how to deal with these type of ppl

Guess what, you creating this thread, gave streamsnipers even another incentive to stream snipe. you probably didnt do it intentionally but still this thread is dumb and pointless. Also why do you care, i for one enjoy(sadisticaly) watching a streamer get sniped.

And i sure as hell aint the only one, when do you EVER see viewer numbers drop when someone gets repeadedly sniped?

...

What?

So you're against people who are against stream sniping because it is taking away peoples fun, which is the problem with stream sniping in the first place?

Anyway, I suppose all the community can do is spam "report to blizzard: harassment" to people who stream cheat. There's nothing else we can do really.

What purpose does this thread serve? If people don't want to get sniped they should search for a game while putting the stream to a different view to reduce the chances. If they surely don't want to get sniped, the should turn the stream off. This thread doesn't solve any problems and actually creates a few new ones.
