Is ingame advertisement of players channels allowed ?
If yes, is it still allowed if channel has videos of other games ?
It is damn annoying habit for some people.
And dont tell me to ask them to stop, they never do.

Its just one rather absurd situation.
I know that advertising channles of forum is ok, altho i find it to be rather idiotic.
One could argue that those people promote DB. But its kinda faulty logic. What exactly they promote to people who are alredy playing DB by posting that spam ingame(or on forums) ?
The way i see it its actually harmful to the game as a whole.
First of all, those streamers are all about viewers, so they generally play other games as well. Meaning that they actually redirect people away from DB as result. Whatever sells, they will stream, games revenue/popularity is of the least interest to them.
And second, about 90% of all glitches i know in DB i have learned from those wannabe pros. Just drop them like/follow/endorse and they will tell you in detail how to exploit the shit out of the game.
Out of about 2 dozen channels ive seen, 1 were just good, 4 were an average players(altho i did learn a thing or 2, like sometimes less is more)… and then there 2 who were promoting hacks/hack sites(money dosnt smell, after all, everything goes if some1 is willing to pay you a buck - reported those, after a week nothing really happened, so a bust there) and the rest were exploting the crap out of the game.
It is even more absurd considering that Nexon has rather strict policy of “no naming and shaming” and “no discussing non-Nexon games”. But they seem to be completely ok with such spam and distribution of exploit and promotion of other games by proximity.
Go figure that logic.
Least that players could get is an “ignore list” function in game, so that we could just block(permanently) those lamers with their crap and forget about them.
Unless its forbidden to begin with, still waiting on answer.

I meant ingame spamming in chat(and dont even get me started with those geniuses who put whole twitch in the nickname). I doubt that any of those people bothered to ask any1, least the developers or publisher permission.

Somebody who streams on Twitch and has their twitch URL in their username in DB is totally fine. Advertising like that for yourself and DB is mutually beneficial. And you can’t claim that they will gain viewers and then take them away from DB. That’s like being upset at a YT person who did a promo for your game then went on to do a promo for another game. People who like DB will stay and play DB.

And I’ve never seen a streamer who actively shows off exploits and cheats on Twitch. Mostly because something like that is towing the line of being against Twitch ToS and their channels can be shut down. And it’s especially dangerous for them in regards to DB since a pretty well known Twitch admin is also a pretty well known figure in the DB community.

The devs know we want a full ignore feature and it sounds like it’s on their to add list for a future update. When that comes you can ignore people or report them at your leisure.

I’ve always wish for an option to mute player’s voice and text in any game. While you can mentally ignore what they type, it make useful team messages hard to read.
