Beginner 4 min read For: Streamers, content creators, and viewers interested in platform manipulation and online streaming economics.

AI Summary

The video investigates the use of bots on the Kik streaming platform, sparked by streamer Abu Suwaihil's complaints that bots are inflating view counts and unfairly affecting earnings and awards. The host tests the claims by purchasing bots for his own stream, demonstrating how easily bots can be deployed and how they impact statistics.

[00:02]
Abu Suwaihil's Complaint

Abu Suwaihil claims bots are harming his livelihood in three ways: preventing him from winning the best streamer award, reducing ad contracts, and making viewers choose streamers with inflated numbers.

[00:40]
GTA Streamers' View Explosion

After Abu Suwaihil's comment, Grand Theft Auto streamers saw view counts explode, rivaling top streamers Darbah and Shung. Abu Suwaihil sarcastically praised the community's growth.

[01:06]
StreamChart Statistics Debate

Twitter user Tarban cited StreamChart data showing high view counts for Absi and Abu Ghali, arguing bots aren't counted. Abu Suwaihil countered that a streamer received 540,000 bots, which were counted by the site.

[02:00]
Kik's XIP Program Impact

Big streamers complained to Kik about decreasing earnings. Kik explained that bots inflate everyone's numbers, causing XIP (a stable monthly income) to fluctuate, hurting those who don't use bots.

[03:06]
Bots on Twitch Too

The host notes that even Twitch has bots, showing an example where views jumped from 90 to 104 in seconds without chat activity.

[03:46]
Glitch's Claim and Test

Glitch tweeted that bots won't show in official statistics anymore. The host decides to test this by buying bots for his own stream.

[04:28]
Buying Bots

The host purchases a $3 package offering 25 views, 5 chat commenters, and 50 followers for one stream. He configures the bot to write custom messages.

[05:31]
Bot Impact on Average

After deploying bots, views jumped from 20 to 70. Initially, the average remained 18, but after half an hour, it increased to 23, proving bots can raise earnings.

The experiment confirms that buying bots can artificially inflate view averages and potentially increase earnings, validating streamers' concerns about unfair competition. The host suggests he might start using bots himself, highlighting the platform's ongoing issue.

[00:02] bots, guys, a minute, this guy is writing, guys, peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings, pray for the Prophet, you need help. About a week and a half ago, Abu Suwaihil was live talking about bots, and he was saying that his livelihood is being cut off in three ways because

[00:15] other people are buying bots. He said, firstly, I can't participate in the best streamer award now, because the stats of those who buy bots are better than me, so it's impossible to win the award. Secondly, in terms of ads and contracts, any company that wants to advertise will usually go to the one with the

[00:27] higher numbers, that's normal, because they don't even know if this is with bots or not. And thirdly, if you follow Kik and you don't know Abu Suwaihil, suddenly you see he has 10,000 views and the other one has 50,000 views, you'll go to the one with 50,000 views, you'll definitely see what He has 50,000

[00:40] views, but it's likely they're all bots. After Abu Suwaih's comment, three days later, the Grand Theft Auto players exploded in views, reaching levels comparable to Darbah and Shung. Then Abu Suwaih posted this tweet: "Praise be to God, our Arab community is seeing a rise in streaming numbers,

[00:53] thank God." He then wrote under this tweet: "There are people now, praise be to God, competing with Darbah and Abu Shayea, praise be to God." Then someone on Twitter named Tarban replied, writing: "Today, Absi got 90,000 views and Abu Ghali got 75,000." This tweet was sent by Tarban at exactly 2:00 AM. He was

[01:06] saying these statistics are recorded on StreamChart, meaning it's impossible for a bot to be included in these statistics. That was his point. Then, half an hour later, Abu Suwaih posted another tweet saying: "Before we finish this, I just wanted to mention something for those who rely on statistics websites:

[01:20] those who rely on statistics websites: one of the guys was bombarded with 540,000 bots by a hater and got counted." On the site, and actually if you look at the site, it says the viewership metric, which means you reached your highest viewership of 580,000. Then people started attacking Abu Suwaihil, saying there were

[01:33] powerful events, that's why their views were exploding. And about Abu Ghali, he has a lot of people on the stream because Drubh stopped streaming. Then Abu Suwaihil responded and said, "I didn't mean Abu Ghali, but Shongo and Drubh. If there are powerful events, the most powerful events, they don't get these numbers except by force and

[01:46] manipulation." He said, "My words are directed at Respect and no one in particular. My words are directed at everyone. Anyone who uses a bot, my words include you because Abu Suwaihil's problem is with those who use bots." You might say, "Abu Al-Nouran, what do bots do?" Well, brothers, about seven months ago on Kik, some

[02:00] big streamers, whom Abu Suwaihil said he knew, contacted the Kik people and said their money was decreasing. They said, "I used to stream and get 550,000 views and get $3,000. Now it's..." Why do I get 2500? The Kik people answered, saying it's because some people on Kik buy

[02:14] bots, and the bots are ruining XIP. Abu Nouran said XIP is based on what Chung said, not on my own words. He said in an XIP stream that Kik gives it to big streamers and that it's a stable monthly income source. But how does that work? Let's say Chung gets an average of 550,000 views per stream, and Kik says, "Okay, boss, every time you get around

[02:28] 50,000 views, we 'll give you $5000." Chung says if everyone's numbers increase to 500,000 or 600,000 views, 500,000 or 600,000 views, XIP will hit. If everyone's numbers increase

[02:40] XIP will hit. If everyone's numbers increase in a way that isn't right, it will hit the poor guys. So the calculation starts to fluctuate. Instead of Chung getting 5000, he gets 4000, and the one who bought a bot gets 7000, and the other one gets... 8000 and so on, that's why Abu Suwaihil is upset about what's happening.

[02:53] Then Abu Abeer came along and brought up this topic in his stream, and this is what he said about it. But honestly, guys, they're right, I swear they're right. I wanted to talk about it from the beginning, but when we see Abu Suwaihil talking now, he looks like a poor guy, as they say. And indeed, then

[03:06] unfortunately, after Abu Abeer's comment, Kik messed up. I mean, I posted a picture in this mess, and this picture, and the one on the right is Kik. I mean, you have the freedom to stream on Kik and you can stream on YouTube and stuff like that, but on Twitch, no, there's no freedom. And the people in their comments are all

[03:19] bots, bots. Twitch is better than you, there are no bots. But unfortunately, brothers, after a long search, even Twitch has bots. Here, I was in Abu Maryam's stream, and I was watching normally, then suddenly the chat, the last person who wrote, wrote a few minutes ago, and then suddenly, if you look closely, the views are 90, good. Then look here after three

[03:33] seconds... What's going to happen? Boom, that's 104. I said, " How is that possible?" Well, these are definitely bots, I mean, there's no doubt about it. Except I follow Abu Maryam and his views were around 30 a long time ago. Then I went back to Twitter and found a post by Glitch saying that bots won't show up in the

[03:46] official statistics anymore. This news should make everyone happy, because if they don't show up in the statistics, then the bot is useless and the profits will go back to normal for everyone. But unfortunately, guys, I got a worm, so I said, "What should I do, beast? Let me buy

[03:59] bots and see if what they're saying is true or not, because experience is the best proof." But there's a problem: I don't make money from Kik and I don't have the XP that's not for Glitch says, that bots aren't counted in the statistics anymore. And here it says that if you reach a 50 average

[04:14] in views on your stream, you can verify your Kik account. So I said, "Okay, cool." The average is currently around 18. If I buy bots and it goes above 20, I know it's true and what he said is actually true. When he says the bots don't show up in the statistics, that's just a way to shut him up. So, in the name of

[04:28] God, I started a live stream and went to a website to buy bots. I was streaming and I was crawling around like I was in front of the White House. Then it showed me options for a month, a week, and a single stream. I decided to get the "one stream" option, which gives you 25 views, five chat commenters, and 50 followers for

[04:44] $3. Before that, I checked my stream views and they were around 19 to 20. So, guys, I bought it. The system works like this: you get 25 views in your balance, and then you can type in the name of any streamer you want, and it will appear. You can control how many

[05:01] views you give them, and you can even have the bot write something. So I had it write this: "I'm your uncle Gigi, you beast! May God protect us!" Swallow the shock! You can make me write a word, then five minutes later write another word, and so on, however you like. So, if you want to avoid suspicion and people's words turn out to be

[05:17] is spamming, the same word—it turns out you can control the words and when it writes the message and the next message. Then I sent a bot to my stream, and a second later, boom! Every second a new follower, a new follower, a new follower! Then, after a few seconds,

[05:31] the bots appeared, and look, it's writing exactly what I told it to! It was truly a shock, but I'll see if the average actually increases or not. It's not related now. After the bots bought 70 views, we got from 20 to 70. Then I checked if the average changed in the

[05:44] Kik statistics, and for the last four streams, it's been the same, 18. But I said I'd wait a few minutes, and after about half an hour, what do you think our average is now? Initially, the average increased, guys. For 23, guys, the average isn't easy to raise your earnings easily.

[05:58] raise your earnings easily. because people are buying bots. Or it's not necessarily people, even if they're followers. These people bought bots, which increases the streamer's profits, while others who do n't buy bots get nothing. So,

[06:12] honestly, I have every right to be upset. And I think, guys, from today on, I'm going to fill up on bots, you beasts! Or maybe you guys can join us on Kik and we'll reach 75. This average I expect we'll reach in a billion years. That's the whole bot thing in general. Welcome, guys, to Kik. We have the best streams in the country. Do

[06:24] Snapchat, guys, so we don't have to buy bots there. May you all be well. Peace be upon you. I love you all for the sake of God, guys. I don't know what this is all about, but go ahead and take it.
