In reality, a viewer who purchases a stream is essentially paying for it. And there are no copyright issues here, nor could there be.
What I find strange is not the fact that Vitaly refuses to stream. Whether or not to stream is a personal matter. And Professor Preobrazhensky would simply say, "I don't want to." But there's an underlying hint at arguments. And the reasoning seems to be at the level of: "Someone is saying something bad about me, and someone is spoiling things." As for how to deal with the latter phenomenon – which, unfortunately, exists in streams, although not often – I have indicated: through responsive moderators and a mutual agreement among players not to read the chat.
But online gaming, in principle, cannot be protected from the possibility of rule violations (and neither can offline gaming). And the factor of trust, which has been discussed so many times, is key. If you don't trust your opponent, don't play.
Vitaly's posts simply create the impression that someone has offended him ("there definitely won't be people there who will say something bad about me")...

But because of people like you, I no longer want to offer a general stream. It's a pity you don't understand this... you see some kind of nonsense... in the creation of this topic, in my actions... what bothers you?

I told you I don't want to stream, is that not clear?? And this is not due to a lack of trust in Vanya; otherwise, I wouldn't play at all. The only problem with him is agreeing on a game; otherwise, at least I don't have any problems with him.

Do you have any complaints about this topic? I don't understand why you're so negative. I've made everything much simpler for those who play for money. Everyone can list their interests, and I will add this information to the first post. Any player who plays for stakes can go in, read everything, and arrange games without the tedious search in the "let's agree on an online 3-player game" thread. It's also easier for a player who provides information about himself to find an opponent who shares his interests. What's so bad about that? Or maybe I enjoy writing this information in a general topic every time and wondering if someone will read it in 3 hours or not?
