Ban B4 and YoDa for scandals Don't ban BW streamers that did the same thing k EDIT: I'm not saying remove all of them, I'm saying keep them. The Winter thing is just bitching, but you can't ban B4 and YoDa for scandals and not ban the BW players cause they both did the same damn thing. | ||

Are you comparing Alleged viewbot vs prooved match fixing ? | ||

I do not think this makes (a good) precedence in any rate. | ||

I know there isn't any hard evidence that winter botted himself and thus he can't be punished (like MK) but if he did it would be equally bad as match fixing. | ||

The main problem with match fixing isn't that the players get money. The problem is that the integrity of the games is compromised, and viewers wont know if a player is losing because they are crap or because they are paid to. Which discourages viewers and kills E-SPORTS and the world as we know it. | ||

Well depends on how you look at it but having "fake viewers" just boost you up. When you watch a tournament or a stream you don't really care 'cause you go full screen and watch. It's like you watch a movie and the channel said : "There was 4 millions people watching" while in truth you were the only one. But you did watch so in the end there's no impact. While i don't agree that botting is a good thing and if it was truly the case i would agree with a ban. Matchfixing doesn't include a streamer but a player. Someone with a fan base, people come and pay to watch them play. Be it the price of the ticket or the price you pay to come to the studio. And it's not like it's a small issue since there is organized crime behind it and legal matters that can put you into jail. So in the end it's like comparing a con man to a band of organized thief. (Or if you want a more goofy comparison it's like comparing a woman with makeup with extreme photoshop) That's why i don't like the comparison. But maybe it's just me. | ||

There is no proof or evidence that winter used a bot on his channel. If there were, he would have been banned. Proof includes actual transactions from the player to the bot vendor ( search EggySC2 for how a person gets banned on twitch for view botting ) If you don't piss off the vendor there is literally no way you can prove that person was in fact viewbotting their channel. People don't donate based on viewer count, they donate based on the content. | ||

I'm E rank on Fish/ D rank high. Aka SuGo[PaiN] on icc. I've got about 15-20 (not a bad number for BW especially being unfeatured atm) viewers per night but would definitely have more if the stream was more visibly available to folks via the featured section. Thanks. SuGo. | ||
