Self PR rule

Can't really fault Rainbolt here. It's his business & that's how the system works unfortunately.

I don't know the exact situation with Rainbolt, but it's common for stream clip channels (even "official" ones) to be operated by people other than the streamer. Example.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Rainbolt Clips is a fan operated account.

Perhaps, but his main channel also has self promoting clip bids, so isn't totally unexpected.

This account if fully independently operated btw Rainbolt talked about it on stream years ago. He just lets them because its promotion for him

The point here is probably to get "rainbolt" into the title. He could also write "me looking like a cheater for X minutes" but that would not include rainbolt.

In the end, this is just search optimization.
