Imagine you are a TF2 caster with a good following. Imagine someone approaches you from a game company and says:
"We have a beta, and I guess we want some scrubs from other games to come check it out. Sure, it's way cooler than TF2 and you're just some dude who is amusing, not skilled, but anyway, you should come take a look."
Would you say "yeah, that's great" or "dude, screw you, I'll keep playing TF2" . . .
They've approached people politely with a small amount of flattery because that is how you get people to do something for you.
(As a hint: how NOT to get people to do something for you is whine for explanations after they've been laid out already.)
