!Viewbotting

Why is this section in red? Well... viewbotting is not a good thing, but people have shown interest in it and we are here to explain all in details. It's not safe, it's against Twitch rules, and if you do it, you do it at your own risk. We are here to clarfiy that and make sure you select the best providers, if we can call them ''the best", because after all, they are not selling real viewers - just bots.
