Any way to make myself unsearchable?

While streaming BF4 in the last few weeks, I have received more resistance and harassment than anyone needs...made possible by gametracker. Because of the player search feature, anyone can search any player's username and come into their server. While I am live, I am followed everywhere I go, constantly being harassed and trolled. It is impossible to grow my channel any longer at this rate

This leads me to ask, is there a way to make a username private on gametracker so that I can stream privately? Would it be possible to make this change if I contacted GameTracker Support?

I appreciate any information you can provide, thank you for your help.

(I should also note that this username is not my stream name)

GameTracker doesn't currently have any feature for players to verify their player alias and subsequently hide it on GT.

One thing you could do is visit your user on GameTracker profile (for example http://www.gametracker.com/itsapocalypsenow/) and only allow your profile to be viewed by friends. I'm not sure if that would help your situation.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

If there's no way to hide my current server, from this point, I would need to compile a list myself of all servers that don't allow gametracker to view the playerlist. Are there any bf4 servers that dont allow gametracker to track their server? Or is that not possible?

We do not maintain a list of servers not tracked by GameTracker.com.
