http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/2yz0kv/wintergaming_uses_viewbots_heres_the_evidence/ Within there is a pretty incriminating reply that one of the Reddit users saved after Winter himself deleted the comment. It appears as an attempt to save face on the issue by claiming ignorance and passing blame to other Twitch users for the viewbots | ||

Generally, viewbotting can be a huge pain in the ass for the whole streaming industry (which is pretty much twitch at this point.) I wonder what twitch is going to do about viewbotting if it really is that rampant as the reddit thread suggests. But I don't want to judge Winter for anything that hasn't been proven completely. | ||

But there is really strong evidence now, so yeah. It raises new questions though: Does twitch really not care? | ||

The point of viewbotting is to get yourself higher on the list of streamers and therefore get more visibility. It is more money indirectly, at least in theory. | ||
