If you don't care about the streamer then you shouldn't want their skins.

Originally posted by Twizelbang: When a streamer only decides to stream for less then 3hrs, with a drop that's 4hrs, they just wasted 90k peoples time. With the way the drops worked, it conflicted with trying to watch another streamer, that we had no clue, when they might be going live.
All streamers have streamed far more than 4 hours overall. You don't need to watch 4 consecutive hours to get the drop - it can be across multiple streams.

As mentioned several times, streamers have no obligation to stream Rust and are doing so at their own discretion. If you want schedules then we would need contracts and stuff with streamers which is another problem on its own. However, this was a first for us and we'll come up with better streamer-specific drop timings in the future.
