    I've been watching YouTube today, and apparently, on one U.S. server, all nodes are held by content creators who are collaborating to shape the world how they want.

    I'm not saying it's wrong; just saying it's an example of what I'm talking about. And at some point, it will be about the views.

    What server?

    Lyneth

    Only streamer on Lyneth that currently has a town is Narc. Overlord has Miraleth, Narc has Winstead, Dynasty has Joeva, Heroes has Halcyon, and a guy who got in with 2 votes during the DDOS attack has New Aela. But they all have indeed been working towards a plan for which buildings to create.

    Yeah man, I know what u mean... I was going to play on that server too, but now i'm not so sure. Like you said, I want to feel immersed in the game and not just a "prop" for a content creator to make money off of. Kinda kills some of the natural fun and exploration of just playing the game.

    You are suggesting that people that have been waiting years to play shouldn't be subject to *whatever* other players wish to do in game, and that is just outright incorrect.

    That is false. Read again. My entire point is INFLUENCE FROM OUTSIDE THE GAME like trying to run an entertainment show. I have no problem that some people want to do that.
    But what I don't understand, nor accept which you didn't address either is, why I have to be subjected to someone elses business endeavor in my freetime. Without consent, without payment. That is why the only thing I ask for is an information option so I can avoid being used as a prop in someones entertainment business. And giving players the information to make an informed decisions is not much to ask.

    The worst is when these people use their "influence from outside the game" as a power multiplier in the game, then complain about stream sniping...

    Cost of doing business imo.
