There's a handful of WAR streamers, a couple get upwards of 20 viewers or so. Not enough to make a living on so I guess it depends on what your definition of demand is.

Well I mean there are quite a lot of active players on the server by now. Could totally have a good Twitch audience

Also the rules state that :

Making any kind of profit from this project is strictly forbidden.

Streaming and youtubing is kind of making profit of the project in some way if you get tips or you are a partner, ad revs etc., what is the response on that one?

I think that rule is more directed to gold sellers or account sellers for real money. There were a couple during live that would do that.

Well I mostly meant, that this is a non-profit project and that's why it's not illegal as far as I know and allowed by EA. Just wondering if 3rd party people make money out of it, does that change the status or not.

But still back to the original topic, with the growth of the server, a twitch and youtube audience is quite possible I think.

Yes, there is!

I check out some of the streams, mostly from groups that have wrecked me so I can check out what they're up too.

With the Duel Events, it'd be cool to have a stream.

Most of the streams are the same here though. Cut and edit to show PUGs getting rolled, or individual 6v6's to show whom was better on that night. I'd like streams that have a point besides stroking your epeen. IE, showing off tactics or coordination, or different builds/set-ups etc.

Basically, you gotta make it interesting beyond watching people melt..
