Anyone doing it? If so, where? Everyone knows Twitch isn’t an option, but some seem to think Youtube is safe for streaming private WoW servers because people have done it in the past. I’m pretty sure that hasn’t been the case for a few years now and that streaming Everlook on Youtube or Twitch is going to be a “do so at your own risk” type situation.
Are people just going to risk it and hope they can fly under the radar?
If anyone has any information to the contrary, alternatives or workarounds, spread the word!
People are also streaming other private server content (like WoW Ascension) on Youtube.
Should be “fine”. There is always a risk (as seen where Blizzard took down Turtle WoWs, Ascensions Youtube channel and your example ofc). You could also try Vimeo, Dailymotion, DLive, Facebook Live (Gaming) and more. If you want to grow i would say risk it with Youtube and/or Facebook, maybe even Tiktok. Twitch would be a no-go imo. You could fly under the radar for a bit, but it just would need one person that doesn’t like you and boom you would be reported. The other way would be to do videos. If you don’t mind loosing your account then just go for it an make another one after you got banned.
Streaming it on both YT and twitch. I don’t have an official blizzard account anymore, I deleted it years ago, and I’m not convinced there’s any risk to my channels
Yeah it seems yolo’ing it on Youtube is the plan for most. I might give it a shot on launch, though I remain skeptical the hammer won’t come down. Especially with all those bitter anti-pserver Andies, who would like nothing better than to report anyone streaming anything that isn’t sanctioned by their beloved Blizzard.
