Make email verification mandatory With the ongoing outbreaks of follow and hate bots "raids", the creation of multiple accounts is simply too easy to abuse on the platform. Creating an account on Twitch does not require an authentic email address before using its services: watching content, following a streamer, sending messages in streamers chats, modifying the account details, etc.
Many streamers are being harrassed by bots and "IP Grabbers" by:
- Mass following streamers with inappropriate names and account details;
- Mass spamming chats with obscene languages and characters (ex: racism, homophobia, transphobia, nazi, etc..);
- Having extensions on their user profile which allows…830 votes -
The ridiculous password requirements need to stop. I will never remember my 20+ character password. Twitch requires the most insane password strength I've ever seen. I've had accounts with banks, insurers, court systems and other state/federal government websites, and yours is the only one I will never remember. You're a streaming site. It's not like you're handing out nukes.
Literally all I (and millions of others) want to do is watch streamers and comment occasionally. If the security is this high for streamers, who have jobs and contracts surrounding twitch, then fine. But I think you'd make a lot of people happy by making two separate account types, with different levels of security measures. One…

Personal Verification & Account Approval This may require a bigger team of course to implement, but I just signed up for a freelance website and the sign up process, is actually an application to use this site. I was required to verify my identity via uploading a photo of my ID AND a verifying statement such as a paystub, utility bill, etc. And also address verification (or at least a mailing/billing address) which should be added to the account anyways since payment information is stored for subscriptions.
I know that twitch has a younger population so that may not work, but it may also be…

Verify someone owns the email address they sign up with, before creating the account I currently get regular spam from this site as people sign up using my email address, and I have to delete the accounts myself.
It would be better (and standard practice) to force the email verification to be a mandatory part of account creation.

Porque não usar Token por email? Olá,
Porque não usar Token por email?
@Twitch poderiam por uma nova opção na parte de Token que poderia ser assim...
Selecionar Token por email...
Ou
Selecionar Token por número de telemóvel...
Acho que seria melhor quando o "Streamer/Usuário" fosse fazer login da sua respectiva conta...
Espero que quem esteja a ler isto vote :32 votes -
Better Way to Create New Acount Create a better way for old people using the app or have a human suport to help new users on how to create a new account. I have did a tutorial it my self that can be accessed here http://djrudphd.com.br/entrartwitch/ but I gess that is not enough . I guess a that a phone number should be get automaticaly when on a form starts to be filled and after it be sent, Twitch could sent login infos in an SMS with login infos or a button or a link to do the first login where user can fill other options…

Digital Identity in Italy (SPID) - Can solve insults and threats In Italy they have created a Public Digital Identity System (SPID), for any request within the city or province you must have this Digital Identity.
•
Twitch's problem, I would say the biggest, are threats and insults, a very important solution is the BAN but it's not enough!
•
We must note that there is too much chaos on the web!
•
By applying the SPID system at least in Italy, Twich "Beta" could test this reality and then maybe expand it in Europe and maybe even around the world!
•
With digital identity we will no longer have insults,…2 votes -

Raising the Minimum Age to sign up for Twitch from 13 to 18 According to several metrics and articles, The demographic that is drawn to the site are users between the ages of 18-45, ie. adults. My recommendation is to raise the limit to 18 years old for signing up and streaming to the platform.
THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION TO MAKE TWITCH AN ADULT SITE.
The point is to curb child predators from creeping on the site and attempting to groom young children. In addition to this change, A disclaimer should be posted on for each user sign up and requires confirmation via email to verify that the disclaimer has been read.
