It seems every stream I watch, the streamer gets free diamonds/gold/armor etc.. from fans. I have seen multiple times when streamers get more than 20 diamonds and a stack of gold. This really needs to be stopped. Just because someone is famous they shouldn't be able to get free stuff from fans. Lets say a streamer is full iron without enchants an hour in. A fan says "I have stuff for you" come to these coords and supplies him with full diamond and a stack of gold. This should not be allowed as it is unfair to normal players and it is kind of like X-Ray/Benefiting from X-Ray.Posted on 13 September 2015 - 12:59 PM
They're not going to stop this because "streamers make our server more popular" and that crapPosted on 13 September 2015 - 01:08 PM
Lol stop being jealous Italy490, you would probably also say yes if a guy says " i have full dia and a stack off gold, i want to give it to you ". This is not a big problem, thats what i think.Posted on 13 September 2015 - 01:09 PM
yes im very jealous!Posted on 13 September 2015 - 01:11 PM
Well since what you just described is teaming… Especially if the player simply walks away. Then obviously thatd be a teaming ban.Posted on 13 September 2015 - 02:56 PM

in most cases the player doesn't walk away; they die for the person they're giving the stuff to.

Almost all of the time i've seen this happening the streamer didnt take the loot the fan dropped. And sometime they just let the streamer kill them, but i guess that is the same as if you ghost kill someonePosted on 13 September 2015 - 10:22 PM
If they give them stuff and walk away I'd ban.Posted on 14 September 2015 - 12:15 AM

Normally when people give u stuff, we kill them after. We don't let them walk away after, cuze that would be teamingPosted on 14 September 2015 - 09:25 PM
But still gaining free items and then killing the person without taking damage (because they let you kill them) is still very unfair.Posted on 15 September 2015 - 01:25 PM
So what do you recommend we do. Ban the people donating, ban the streamers?Stop being a damn tryhard, none of these streamers that get donations like this consistently win.

I suggest we ban everyone just to be safe.Posted on 15 September 2015 - 02:42 PM

Agreed 100%.

This needs to stop. Why should a streamer gain this much of an advantage over regular players? I agree, it's hard to actually know what to do when this happens, but if somebody is giving streamers stuff every game they're in and there is evidence to prove this, they should be banned for doing so. It's not like it would be the first time you banned someone without a proper ruling on it (Danteh, for example)TL;DR If someone is doing this very often and there is evidence, there should be a ban.

Streamers aren't the only ones who get sacrifices, some even have alts to do it for themselves. Streamers are the only one seen doing it because they actually stream itPosted on 21 September 2015 - 12:33 PM
Well they don't necessarily have to take what people give them.I haven't incountered it, but personally I would consider this as teaming.

Well, yes but if people do it with alts then the alts don't give the player full diamond and a stack of gold, which I've seen happen to a lot of streamers a lot of the time. It's just unfair that the streamer has to do no work and they get this much gear, like I said; if the same person is only playing the game to mine full diamond for their favourite streamers, surely something should be done about it
I don't see why they should gain such an advantage just because they stream for a large audience, its basically just as good as you spawning them full diamond
Hope something changes. (-:
