In game spam for twitch feeds?
 

I am sorry if this is the wrong forum but "technical" did not seem appropriate. Is in-game spam of URL's of someone's twitch feed against the rules?

Late last night I got a tell claiming that "Twitch feed player", I am not sure if call-outs are against the rules so I won't list a name or screenshot unless asked, was accusing me of stealing his GF. I lol'd and checked it out and it was just a twitch feed of the "player whose GF I stole".

This came from a different player name that promptly logged out and has never logged back in. I am asking if this is against the rules because I think trying to get traffic for your site through in-game spamming is really lame.

This all seemed very sketchy because of the instant log out after the tell and the fact that it happened so late at night. I can post the SS of the spam bot's, and the twitch users names if required.

Thank you for making this great game available for us all to enjoy. I just wanted to make sure that issues such as in-game spam to try to get hits for ads seems to go against the spirit of this server.

It's pretty common, plenty of threads out there calling this stuff out. Guess there isn't much you can do.

Best thing is to just ignore it .. maybe report it? I don't know the correct channels to go through to make it effective.

It's just someone spamming trying to get the twitch streamer in trouble, ignore it.

Thanks for the input. It has not happened again yet. I was just worried because I have seen spam-bots run rampant in other games.

I did not do a call out for the reason you stated. It was from another player name and for all I knew the twitch streamer could have been unaware of the spam. Didn't want to assume the worst.
