Re: Dealing with harassment and stream snipers?

Yeah, I know who they are. And, yesterday I saw a streamer being stream sniped and harassed for 10 hours straight, they were able to get into every lobby in the opposite team. The streamer did 100 reports all together. Today they are back stream sniping.

I'm not aware of any special "software" that can match you onto the opposite team. Obviously watching them click the match type and simultaneously clicking it can work for getting into the same match (my buddies and I had to do that whenever we had a group larger than 4 people, absolutely sucks). But yeah, not sure what they are expecting, I don't even know if other games have any form of "stream-sniping" in their rules. 

You obviously don't know what's going on or the scope of the problem.

First of all. Financial gain? Not everyone who streams does to become big and famous and make big money. By stating this you've already lost my respect.

Second. "people", we are talking the same 4-5 people that repeatedly join the same lobby only to harass one player, using the stream to pinpoint where they are and kill them. For then hours straight the same 4-5 people got into the same lobby just to ruin for one guy, effectively sabotaging for their own team by not playing the game.

These 4-5 people are literally joining lobbies, when one of them gets into the same lobby they tell the others so they can join and then harass. There are times when they end up on the same team, they then leave only to queue up again until they get into the opposite team.

These "people" have openly admitted to doing this saying that "we don't care because EA wont do anything".

You try and be harassed for 10 hours and then not "whine" about it. You have the right to your opinion, but please educate yourself before using it as an argument.

Yeah, probably not a software. There's 4-5 people doing this so they can just queue up single and who ever gets into the lobby the others just join that guy.

The streamer is using snipe screens so it doesn´t show when he's entering a queue and also shuts of game sound so they can't hear button clicks etc. Yet they manage to be in the same lobby within a minute.

I don't usually like Streamers because the direction they have steered the game in. That said It's pretty low to follow a guy around and make his life a living hell.

I doubt anyone here can help in the matter he needs to contact EA. Or keep filling out reports however long that takes. Is he sending in video of the harassment?

Yep, reporting every game, contacting EA etc. But apparently harassing and following players is not EA's priority.

All staff probably busy working on what the next cosmetic should look like.

Which streamer is this?
