Well I’ve been away transferring my PC from Windows Vista to Windows 8.1 in hopes of a smoother operation, my previous OS was bogging down pretty bad. Since then I’ve received a ridiculous amount of followers without even having streamed. The reason for this I’m positive is someone trying to get me banned from Twitch by using botting methods to put a ton of followers towards my channel at a ridiculous rate. I’m a bit alarmed by this and hope that if I am flagged I will be able to explain myself.
If you check out my Twitter you can see a few interactions with a streamer that I have watched grow exponentially by botting methods and have called him out about it and reported him several times. I don’t see anyone else with that ability doing that to me so I can only assume it is him.
Time will tell if anything happens. If not then I guess I’ll just have a weird follower/viewer to ratio for a while. I suppose it doesn’t really matter since they’re not real users and they wont watch me anyway but it’s annoying because I’ll no longer know my real amount. It’s unfortunate but it just goes to show how big of a problem this kind of stuff really is on Twitch. It’s a bit scary to be honest.
Thanks for reading! Later folks.
