Holy shit man this is messed up, the guy just wanted to make his favorite video game a better place for everyone and he gets death threats for it ? he did a better job than blizzard ever did and it shouldn't end like this, this is so unfair.
then youre just disingenuine or an absolute clown. gold buying happens in every MMO. since 2004.. gold buyers buying a little bit of gold IS NOTHING LIKE sending death threats to people for killing bots..
Madskillz has been one of my favourite wow youtubers and I was really sad to see that they have his info and are threatening him. Imo hes a hero of Hardcore wow and I hope lots of people get inspired to take up the mantle and take out the bots.
I still feel that these crime syndicates have people they have either bought or blackmailed working on the inside of these companies that allows them to do this and keep the bots going. The governments really should look at this because this could be a way of moving funds through laundering it in this system.
Is it far fetched to think they are orchestrating this to some degree Also fleeing in fear ,such as this guy in video, allows the idiots in power to stay powerful and strip you away. Pathetic
They absolutely have someone on the inside covering for them. Whether it's blackmail or getting a cut of the profits someone at Blizzard is facilitating this.
It kinda makes me want to play hardcore again to continue the movement. I just won't make videos of it advertising who I am. I assume they are finding out who he is through his youtube account and not his Blizzard account?
If Blizzard removes gold and the need for in game currency, then we have no more bots or gold sellers etc. I would be guild raids would make a comeback if people cannot buy a carry.
Went back to HC the other day to begin again. If I'm able to get strong enough to deal with bots I'll be treating them to some surprise retirement at every opportunity.
RALLY BEHIND THIS GUY. He took us this far and handed off the baton. Make the bots pay. ( and keep telling Blizzard they are wrong for not doing something )
Can't we all get together and make and or sign a petition to force Blizzard to hire and put real Game Masters back into the game. Real GM's, real people, like we had back in vanilla.
I'm sure you will find 100's of people that will do this work for free. And won't even cost them a fraction of the profit they making. It will only cost them the sub money they get from bot accounts. even the worst pservers have better security that "work" for free GM also might not be the correct role, we need a Game Master Police Force role lol
@@whydotheytry7940 also if you really think of it, why is the classic game not free? What do you get, paying for a sub atm, actually? You only get access to the servers. Where as you use to get real human interactions when contacting CS, they used this money to pay and rent servers and security, all of it now is just automated. If you want anything extra service related in the game you would have to pay extra. Server change, Race change, name change.... Subscription models don't make sense in 2024. I can promise you 90% of you sub money a month is pure profit if you only play Classic Anniversary/Era/Hardcore.
@@SetariM what legal issues? there are tons of systems that can be put in place that is better than what they are doing right now. Counter-Strike and Dota has Overwatch for example, I know it's not a great system either, but its a step in the right direction. all we need / want is human interaction from Game Masters like we had in the past ingame and in their Costumer Support. Cause automated and AI is obviously not working. Then there is also an argument to be made is it really cheaper to have developers for all these AI systems vs higher a few people in CS..
they know lmao you think they don't have data? it's 2024 every company has data on every metric, especially WHEN IT'S LITERALLY THEIR BUSINESS MODEL TO BE TRACKING THOSE NUMBERS. how are you people THIS unintelligent? it's genuinely frightening skimming the comments that you people have SO LITTLE critical thinking skills.
Most companies will contact the FBI if felony criminal acts are taking place on their platform. They can track these people in about 2 minutes. It's All Fun & Games until someone goes to prison over a videogame.
Soda waste his time by RPing like a 12 year old. Why dont the big people stand up and create an army to bankrupt these people. These IRL threats are too far for any game and ANY player. ZERO tolerance!
Imagine threatening someone who actually helps society and is the reason it hasn't crash yet. Imagine. Like any leeching arm from outside the currency is a BURDEN to us. its so simple... Like people are so braindead and cat understand why our dollar keeps lowering in value. LOOK how much is leaving the Country,
Homie says he’s done and doesn’t want to be a part of it and everyone is still crediting him when his family is threatened, I understand info needs to get out there but bruh
Always Report Death Threats to Blizzard. Companies are apparently required to call the FBI if an incident involves a federal crime, such as economic espionage, cybercrime, or terrorism.
tangential, but his vids made me think of a way PVP could work, even in HC. Just have a letterboard listing name and current location of anyone killed a player 5 lvls bellow them in the last week or so. month? opposing faction. or not. that would be cool.
A stark reminder that you do not mess with the WoW bot mafia. They not only control the game, but Blizzard as well! Best thing to do is stay quiet, keep your head down and leave the bots alone, or else the mafia will get you!
And guess what? Just like back in 2019 classic when botting was brought to the forefront then forgotten til it ran rampant the same thing will happen this time. It's not on the players to be martyrs against bots, and anyone who tries will end up as an example just like the mans this video is about. Blizz doesn't care and neither should you.
Death threats made over the internet are considered a federal crime in the United States. Report them to Blizzard expressing the requirement of FBI involvement.
yeah blizzard doesn't care, death threats get made EVERY SINGLE DAY to major streamers and on EVERY SINGLE MMO, FBI HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED ONCE IN 20 YEARS. get a grip.
and are you 10 years old? do you know nothing about the internet? do you ignore reality and the fact that every single major company has been hacked/had customer info leaked over the last decade? like EVERY SINGLE one? yeah WHAT A MYSTERY!!! and i'm being so aggro because it's beyond infuriating and honestly scary to see such an extreme lack of common sense, intelligence, and critical thinking in the comments here and under every other video on the topic. people defending blizzard, people defending bots, people defending the gold buyers. ITS ALL OF THEIR FAULT BUT MOSTLY THE GOLD BUYERS.
Update: it was just proven that it was fake news, a publicity stunt by madskillz to catapult his channel. Inspired by a video titeld "Wow's darkest secret"
ok mr.flat earther, you can relax and take the tinfoil hat off, that is NOT "proven" that is some random shlub in the comments(that'd be you) making a nonsense claim.
I left Blizzard'd WoW for Turtle WoW earlier this year due to the overwhelming toxicity of the Blizzard's game across-the-board across so many levels. It's nauseating both on the player/community side & developer side.
wow could fix this .why would wow stop this .when it benefits from this .by doing nothing uping ah markets .and making it harder for real players to function so we force to play more and invest more time .all wow has to do is check the ah markets see who selling and work it back that way.follow the money.
I wonder if blizz will mention their good friends on next blizzcon. Their cooperation is very profitable for both sides I believe. And then imagine they will all blame the players for supporting criminals 😂😂
@@mill_8108 we dont know what or how credible the threat is. If the bots have ties with organized crime it doesnt take much, and usually they will be computer savy enough to track ips or find his personal info.
and you just literally typed "shake my head my head" so i'd worry more about your own intelligence than him considering he's already BEEN back at it before you commented, and posted a video with an update, BEFORE you commented. FFS.
All these drama posts are gonna make me just ignore your content. I come for information about WOW. This is a click bait drama video that only adds to negativity. You can be better.
unironically cry more, don't let the door hit you on the way out. dudes trying to bring light to a massive issue and you're response is "WAHHHHHHHH UR DRAMATIC STOP TRYING TO IMPROVE THE GAME WAHHHH" guy, YOU ARE LITERALLY the problem are society.
I blame sloth and greed, losers wanting instant gratification, all the rewards with none of the grind. But how long does going through life putting no effort in work? Eventually these losers will rot themselves inside out just as they corrupt all that they touch. If you leave it to me, wow would run a ‘getto server’, a hell like limbo for all these scummy players can go and stink up. Just run that server with bots to its inevitable conclusion so the losers might get a sense of perspective of what their scummyness accomplishes. Obviously, nobody good would like it.
i can tell by your comment you have never watched his videos, he gives them loads of opportunities if they are a real player so dont comment on what you know zero about.
jeeeez guy i hate blizzard but there's NO way you're that slow... right??? RIGHT??? RRRRIIIIGGGGHHHHTTTTTT????? he said it was an email from when he was a CHILD, aka PROBABLY ON THE INTERNET FOR A DECADE+ there have been THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of leaks from *EVERY SINGLE* major company in the last 20 years, get a grip on reality dude.

Thanks for covering this!
The ultimate RP experience would be a discord server that organises bot-killer death squads on hardcore servers.
It’s like going back in time with these discussions again. The nostalgia trip has been interesting with these 20 year old issues.
I blame the gold buyers.
then youre just disingenuine or an absolute clown. gold buying happens in every MMO. since 2004.. gold buyers buying a little bit of gold IS NOTHING LIKE sending death threats to people for killing bots..
Blame blizzard for not banning the bots and creating this whole issue in the first place
Sorry, I'll stop after I buy a few more thousand.
@@vexulous1416 and not banning the gold buyers either^^
@@vexulous1416 goldbuyers create a demand, demand creates bots
Thanks for putting this video out, i hope madskills will continue his hunt for bots. the gates are open now .

100% agree^
Is it far fetched to think they are orchestrating this to some degree
Also fleeing in fear ,such as this guy in video, allows the idiots in power to stay powerful and strip you away. Pathetic
Yea, if it's regarded as money laundering, maybe Interpol could get involved.
They absolutely have someone on the inside covering for them. Whether it's blackmail or getting a cut of the profits someone at Blizzard is facilitating this.
Interesting thought, I agree
Gonna miss that "what up bois"...was one of the best ways to start my day
streisand effect at it's finest

He took us this far and handed off the baton.
Make the bots pay.
( and keep telling Blizzard they are wrong for not doing something )
Blizzard will never stop botting. They would lose at least 30% of their sub money.
Exactly why Jagex doesn't implement many Anti-botting measures either
his channel just blew up and than this... its a shame. I love his content.
Here i thought i stumbled across a niche channel of a guy killing bots, never did i get the feeling he’s already become a legend.
start a guild called Whattup Boyyyzzz to hunt bots
Can't we all get together and make and or sign a petition to force Blizzard to hire and put real Game Masters back into the game. Real GM's, real people, like we had back in vanilla.
Would you double your sub price to do it? GMs cost money
I'm sure you will find 100's of people that will do this work for free. And won't even cost them a fraction of the profit they making. It will only cost them the sub money they get from bot accounts.

Is there a survey where we can show blizzard the people avoiding WoW because of botting?

This makes me want to play again, just for bot hunting.

It's All Fun & Games until someone goes to prison over a videogame.
@@redbatch100 i hope so but if the bots are from outside of the US it will usually lead to nothing. At least a paper trail is started.
there's no way you people are this dense, DURRR DA FBI IS GONNA GO GET THAT MAN IN CHINA FOR SURE!!!
Soda waste his time by RPing like a 12 year old. Why dont the big people stand up and create an army to bankrupt these people. These IRL threats are too far for any game and ANY player. ZERO tolerance!
Because "the big people" make money off bots
Long live Madskillzzhc!

Sol he made a new video today! So worth a watch, you are also mentioned!
Homie says he’s done and doesn’t want to be a part of it and everyone is still crediting him when his family is threatened, I understand info needs to get out there but bruh
no, he's literally already back at it do some research before commenting drivel
RIP Madskillzz
Blizzard make money from bots so why would they care
Always Report Death Threats to Blizzard. Companies are apparently required to call the FBI if an incident involves a federal crime, such as economic espionage, cybercrime, or terrorism.
to blizzard? LMFAO are you a child? or just the most trusting unintuitive person alive?
Ya that gave me chill's also
tangential, but his vids made me think of a way PVP could work, even in HC. Just have a letterboard listing name and current location of anyone killed a player 5 lvls bellow them in the last week or so. month? opposing faction. or not. that would be cool.
yeah no that's miserable and still defeats the purpose
@zeening why?
A stark reminder that you do not mess with the WoW bot mafia. They not only control the game, but Blizzard as well!
Best thing to do is stay quiet, keep your head down and leave the bots alone, or else the mafia will get you!
evil flourishes when good men do nothing
@@Michael-hm8cs it flourishes when people do something too as shown
It flourishes if it has good soil for it. And greedy companies are such good soil.@@Michael-hm8cs
You are dumb if the think threats from some dude in China are real
How many of your bots died in HC? 🤣
And guess what? Just like back in 2019 classic when botting was brought to the forefront then forgotten til it ran rampant the same thing will happen this time.

Can you imagine the lawsuit if ANY harm ever came to this man? It would completely bankrupt Blizzard forever
No it wouldn't. Nobody, in the grand scheme of things, knows about this guy.
When someone says he's out and doesnt want anything to do with this shit anymore, maybe you dont need to give his Story more exposure?
I'm wondering how could they find your real adress to sent you real mail.
and are you 10 years old? do you know nothing about the internet? do you ignore reality and the fact that every single major company has been hacked/had customer info leaked over the last decade? like EVERY SINGLE one? yeah WHAT A MYSTERY!!! and i'm being so aggro because it's beyond infuriating and honestly scary to see such an extreme lack of common sense, intelligence, and critical thinking in the comments here and under every other video on the topic. people defending blizzard, people defending bots, people defending the gold buyers.

What if all non bot players figured out a plan and then all the botz were the only accounts online and we all go play another game
2 bad blizzard dont care they just want ur money and also botts money 2
