So you realize that views and subs are not related to quality but at the same time you made the argument
Decide where you stand. And that said, even if a video with more effort received less views who cares? Just cause simple hot garbage has more chance to thrive cause we live in a quantity over quality age, does not mean you have to give in to that.
And I wouldnt call the whitegrape video professional. The editing is lowkey and it looks like it was made in windows movie maker (if that even exists still). That said, I do not wish to trigger some defense mechanism in you here. I really enjoy that you gank my fellow alliance lvlers on skeram (as i play there). So keep doing what you doing. Just pointing out that you could make it more humorous and less kirm-like
Bruh I spent 2 days getting footage and had to upload by a certain time (The time your video goes live has a big impact on algorithms.) so I just freestyle’d it with no script and minimal cuts to get it down to 10 minutes (algorithm again.). It was a video projected to be massively downvoted and unsubbed so there’s no reason to edit it.
I use to run terror raids in Westfall back in the day on my shaman.
It was harder on a Normal server but usually the Alliance outnumbered us and when you got lucky some flagged low level toons can be caught out in the paddocks or moving to Sentinel Hill.
Though due to my noobness and lack of an epic mount when an Alliance response came things got tricky but thankfully the Deadmines wasn’t too far away and acted as a handy escape route when things got too hairy.
So I’d say in the spirit of causing havoc so long as you move around and don’t hound the same players over and over again I’d say it can be a lot of fun and risky too as some of the more moronic people you can play with can stray too far into Sentinel Hill and get you dks. However now that everyone is well informed and can knock out raids easily hardly anyone isn’t armed to the teeth with armor, weapons and crusader so its a much different environment to muck about in.
It’s really hard to find like minded people that just enjoy ganking.

I never gank someone 10+ lvls below me unless there is a very good reason to do so. I don’t enjoy it unless they have some chance to fight back. I love playing on a pvp realm and will always play on them. To the people who do gank they are doing nothing wrong, I just don’t enjoy killing lowbies.
There’s a reason for that.
Similar to how it’s hard for PVPers to find like minded people, due to the PVE in Classic.
It’s easy.
Always imagine gankers as lonely rejects that not even members of their own faction want to play with.
You’re not wrong. That’s the jist of it. If I had a bunch of bros to play with I’d probably go do that instead.
I like to use skill and cognitive abilities to outplay my opponent. I started playing this game when it was still in Classic and I was 12, I ganked people sure. But within a short span I stopped altogether. Even as a stupid teenager I knew it was wrong. I’m nearly 26 years old now! I haven’t ganked anyone in so long it’s beyond memory. I like playing more competitively, with a challenge. That’s why I’m playing Classic. But it’s like, if others cannot respect the time required to get to 60, then they should just go back to retail! because if you can get pleasure from preying on something with no defenses against you. you probably can also get entertainment from killing mobs that have no chance against your character Stop playing Classic as a ganker, retail is made for you! Plus what happens to gankers anyway? Oh that’s right they get beaten into the earth by actual players who can use the keyboard to the extent it’s supposed to be used. They realize they are crap players and quit! Or they keep ganking noobs to make up for their lack of objective ego! How pathetic…

I love it when it happens to people besides me.
Lowbies in bad gear wont have a flying mount to escape u?
If you’re outside the honorable kill range of the person you killed, you honestly aren’t worth talking to. Childish mentality and probably stupid on top of it.
well ally believe we are evil and when they protect the fact and stop or friendly forsaken friend completing there quest .
I dont know its a circle of hate they killed when i was lvling i will do the same when am max lv. You rarelly get to take revenge again the one that arm you but in your brain when you do what you were done its create some kind of satisfaction.
More videos like this please!
If it’s a pvp server, that’s the life you chose.
But on pve, I once rushed over to an area that was under attack and found a lvl 53 orc warrior who I then killed, he drew first blood.
Well after several months I can safely say that lowbie ganking is still the most fun thing to do in this game.

I attack and kill anyone and everyone. That being said, I have a set of honor rules I follow. One of those being that I never kill the same person twice, regardless of level. The only time this rule goes out the window is if I’m ganked first. If I’m out in the world and someone ganks me while killing a mob or something, my new rule is to kill them one more time than they killed me. So if someone attacks me and I die, I’ll go get payback, then one more time for good measure.
I think just corpse camping and repeatedly killing the same people, especially lowbies, is tasteless and really hurts the quality of the game.
I liked throwing rocks at cars when I was younger. I like gankie lowbies
you’re just contesting contested territories and spreading the vanilla experience.
not quite authentic vanilla experience, since you don’t really camp random people because you have better things to do, but an occasional gank is fine.
Spending a lot of time camping randoms is basically entertaining people for free, it’s a bit too generous.
