It is 99% confirmed that some of his views are not legit. It is not confirmed that this is his own doing. He obviously has a fanbase, it's just not as big as these stats indicate. His recent questionable claims that he was the "#1 viewed Starcraft streamer" in his ill-fated AMA have served to only compound the problem. then pls link the data, all i saw is a reddit article that literally said his stream isn't more suspicious than any other streamer you can find. The data is my eyes and knowing how streaming works. So basically no data, ty http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/257n93/hi_im_wintersc_currently_the_1_sc2_streamer_i_am/chei0klOther than him admitting it? No I do not have access to the impossible to access data, shockingly enough. So what exactly does this prove? You and others make it look like he is not legit at all. That is where my problem with this bs starts, it is basically a witch-hunt cause the big boys don't have his numbers and get mad about it. Streams get botted, this is nothing new and not exclusive to Winter, so what exactly is your point? I could probably say exactly the same about 4 random other streams on that list. Does he get botted? Probably from time to time like many other streams out there. The interesting part isn't IF someone gets botted, but how substantial the botting is, as long as nobody shows any data with evidence that his numbers are WAY exaggerated, i don't see any point in this whole discussion really... But hey it is obviously easier to be a douchebag about this whole situation because you don't like his growth. And to add something usefull: http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/26cnst/sc2_streams_and_viewbots_the_numbers/ Could you stop pretending that I am somehow jealous of Winters numbers? The last SC2 ladder stream I did I was above 10k concurrent. I have nothing to be jealous of. It's definitely easy to see where some of his fans get their obnoxious attitudes from though. Beating up gold leaguers in the name of "education" and then being smarmy about it is the reason some people don't like him, it has nothing to do with some imaginary "old boys club" being jealous of the newcomer. And your comments here show that you really don't watch his stream and feel justified in being smarmy yourself based on nothing but your own smugness. He starts every stream playing his masters account for at least an hour or two (usually 10-15 games) then switches. But hey, you clearly haven't given any thought before making a judgement on someone else, then again, that's pretty much the foundation of your career. Your honour I rest my case, I think we have proven beyond a doubt that Winters fanbois are insufferable toxic nitwits. i have no idea why you would aslo jump on the hate train, but apparently you do. Ahh yes the good old "hate train". Everyone who criticizes this guy has gotta be a "hater". It's a childish way of approaching things and completely dismissive of criticism. No sorry, you'll have to accept that there are good reasons for not liking your favourite streamer and that going out and attacking those that don't only makes him and his fans look worse. (referring strictly to the line about "toxic nitwit fanbois," not the argument itself) i already know the rule about people who do a lot for the community getting more leeway and relaxed moderation, and i'm fine with it. but this isn't something silly like posting a meme image or bumping an old thread. it's a direct personal insult that serves no purpose other than dramatic internet slapfighting, and it's far from the first time he's done it i don't have any grudge or bias against him. regardless of who's making them, i feel that posts like this bring down the level of discourse on any forum and make it a poorer environment for discussion and relaxation. hell, i've done the same thing in the past, and i think we've all been guilty a few times, but if i make a mistake i can accept the consequences i don't know anything about this winter streaming debate, i've never even watched his stream, but i was reading the thread with interest in the points being made by both sides. i want to read reasoned arguments, and he was providing those as well, but as a forumgoer i don't want to read people calling each other toxic nitwits over streaming data. anyway, just my opinion, not making any demands or trying to whine. if he can post like that, i'll just accept it. but it seems unfortunate to me if anyone can. Questions about moderation should go in the website feedback section. This thread is only about discussing bans and making fun of KadaverBB banned people. Now if you want to hea my thought of it I hardly think that "toxic nitwit fanbois," is so out of the line if you look at the conversation as a whole. And I doubt that giving TB a warning for that would do anything.

Important community members do get banned when the step over the line. That's pretty far from the line so I'm not sure what you're up about

he treaded the line multiple times.
question about the GoT thread, possibly spoiler-y, so dontcha click that:
+ Show Spoiler +how are posts that "predict" what is going to maybe happen in the show, but (incidentally?) are spot on treated by mods? people who read the books will probably know which recent one i mean. i think i recall someone being banned for being very precise very often. so i guess it's up to a mod to tell apart trolling and luck?

This isn't so bad, in fact it's an improvement. Last time he called someone a c*nt.

It's posts like those that make me love export personalities. I wish corporate twitters were as honest.

If he can get unbanned in 15 minutes, he can't have that bad of a record.
+ Show Spoiler +I think it's because he and Kadaver are both German. Obviously conspiring.

I might be disappointed about TheAquaBats were I a ska kid in high school when I attended. Yet I was not.

Germans repenting rapidly? Canadians never giving up? This is heresy.

i got unbanned so quickly because i fixed my mistake before even getting banned, and kadaver managed to quickly revert my ban after realizing that. german efficiency.
and i won ABL by making a Game of Thrones reference. Seeker gave me that title.

Oh, GG. I never post funny stuff....

So people got rustled over "toxic nitwit fanbois"? I guess I should be flattered.
That was light and frankly justified. It was far less than what was aimed at me, completely unprovoked I might add, by sad toxic nitwit fanbois. Frankly I'm rather proud of my restraint.
