    Streamer Ganking

    Shameless copy paste from official forums, I know its frowned upon by a lot of people but hopefully someone might like it. Also most max level streamers tend to just sit in garrison and queue for everything which is why most of the people are leveling. Some of the reactions are good though!

    Hi Guys,

    Been doing a lot of streamer ganking lately, generally just for a bit of fun and to get the knee jerk reaction. Most streamers I've spoke with afterwards and they seen the funny side however a lot of them got pretty mad about it. Some of the videos can be very timid while some of them have extremely salty people (See MAXIMUM SALT). I know I have a lot of haters due to the nature of this, but the general feelings between myself and most of the streamers in here is that it was a bit of a laugh and we parted on good terms and if the video's make at least one person chuckle or brightens up one persons day then I'm happy.

    Here is a link to the playlist:

    The mass amount of "gay" comments and downvotes stems from the MAXIMUM SALT video xD

    Normally I hate ganking, but streamer ganking is something I can get behind.

    if you play on a pvp server regardless if you are a streamer or not. When it's red it's dead.

    This. Nothing special about a streamer. They just advertise their location for me.

    The "German" guy is actually Swiss.

    BTT: There's a difference between pvp and ganking, but I don't like streamers so... yeah.

    Ganking is a cowardly act, and is generally just picking on easy targets regardless of the PvP excuse used to justify it.
    Ironic for PvP infers a versus component, which ganking is actively avoiding.

    Congrats, you know a word.

    OP, I support any and all endeavors when it comes to streamer killing. Fuck it, camp them and make them ragequit.

    Alt lite. Sounds like you're having an alt fright. Unable to sleep at alt night. Maybe you should relax and fly an alt kite. Go down to the diner for an alt bite. You shouldn't be treating people with alt spite. Eventually, everything will be alt right.

    I've ganked a few streamers, generally not many "top" ones, but streamers on lower views, since they generally don't have a posse following them 24/7

    First couple of these streamers sound like idiots. You have my full endorsement of ganking the shit out of them.

    You didn't use any of your own material but just straight up stole someone elses footage?

    They wouldn't have that footage without him.

    And it's hard to record their faces and their reactions you know.

    If they want to avoid ever getting ganked, maybe they should move to a PVE server.

    When you're streaming and in a contested zone, no shit you increase your chances of getting ganked.

    This. I love it when people call him a loser, yet they can't figure out to go on a different server.

    If that guy is a loser, what are you?

    You don't understand how ownership works in regards to creation.
    Regardless, this is someone being driven by sadism to create boring content that isn't even his.

    All i can say for him is at least he 1v1'd the lowbies
