  1. The idea is that a user could sit and watch adds in return for an amount of ad- free watch time. E.g. I watch the Ads channel for 10 mins and get 2 hours ad-free watch time on other streams

    At the moment streamers have no control over number and duration of ads so we have as situation occurring many times where a crucial part of the narrative is in effect deleted by an ad.

    On TV we have the situation where "...and the murderer is ... <advert break> .. "The butler!!"

    On twitch we are getting "... and the…

  2. I totally understand the reasonings towards ads. Although, I click on a video because I want to watch that video l, not 8 ads as the live is playing. I miss a huge chunk of the stream I’m trying to watch. I get having 1-2 ads but 8 is way too much. I missed so much from the live and it was pretty upsetting.

  3. I'm not a content creator myself, but I thought of an idea that may help with ads experience after watching the Twitch Townhall.

    From time to time, content creators needs to step away from their chairs and sometimes they do not know how long they need to step away for. Instead of having a fixed bank amount of ad blocks, allow content creators have a dynamic way to play ads. It would work like this:

    • Creator needs to step away from the computer
    • Creator clicks on (Start adblock) button
    • Creator can take 30 seconds to get food or 3 minutes…

  4. Only Twitch is benefiting from ads being played on smaller channels of Twitch Affiliates, while Twitch Partners earn more from ads. Make it fair.

  5. Tie watching adds into the channel points people get to spend on channel rewards.

    Allow them to watch x amount of adds whenever they want and give a bonus reward to whoever's channel they are watching.

    This will help you with your ad issues.

  7. Congrats, you have succeeded in being shittier then Youtube, They at least pause videos when they cram advertisers down your throat. It kinda ruins the point in watching live streams (as apposed to pre recorded video) when you miss chunks of the live stream to feed corporate greed. thanks!

  8. In a tweet today Twitch Support stated "Thank you for all of your feedback. We have completed the mid-roll ads test. Ads are an essential part of keeping Twitch freely available and we understand your concerns. We'll continue to work on ways to improve the viewer ad experience and give streamers more control."

    Please do more to communicate that the concerns of broadcasters and viewers were understood.

    I am interested in what Twitch learned from the testing of mid-roll ads. What concerns did you notice trending and what feedback specifically are you accounting for in making "improvements" to advertising on…

  9. This isn't really an idea, more so my personal opinion on how the site is working, maybe it will be taken into consideration when making future decisions. There isn't a single stream on this, or any site, and there never will be, that I consider worth sitting through minutes worth of ads. If I'm watching a stream and I see more than two 15-second ads, I immediately leave. Every time. If I have ever accidentally sat through them, then I wasn't actually watching the stream, and just had it running in the background. I don't really know how you could…

  10. Stop placing ad bans on people for having a real community, and actually target communities with bots. Constantly people I know and now myself included keep getting targeted by twitch for fake engagement all for it to be not true and for the community to actually be real. The only thing that leads them to believe this is because of ad revenue discrepensies, which is ridiculous for streamers testing certain ad break lengths. Get your metrics better and stop targeting small streamers. Its a lawsuit waiting to happen. I feel discriminated against smh. Twitch do better to protect your streamers…

  11. Ads keep interrupting stream and making stream unwatchable. I have been reporting this issue via the cog but this issue is not being addressed!

  13. I will NOT sit through 3 minutes of ads. I won't sit through a minute of ads. You know what I do when I hit an ad wall longer than 30 seconds on Twitch? I close the tab and go watch something on youtube instead (seriously). It doesn't help that most of the ads are for food I'll never eat or an immoral army I'll never consider joining. The ad experience on Twitch is an embarrassment. You have too much money as it is, stop being greedy pigs about it. I'm literally NOT watching Twitch streams I otherwise would be…

  14. Every content has ads. But running 5 30-second commercials in 10 minutes ****** viewers off. We don't watch ads by subscribing to a publisher I like to avoid watching Prime ads, but we don't have to subscribe to everyone to avoid watching ads. Reduce advertising to prime members. tired of ads

  15. I am a streamer, I would like it if the streamers had more total ads. Not during stream but that they could pull from. I have "ran out" of ads. During my streams I keep getting "Commercial break in progress". I am not getting any ad revenue.

  16. Two problems here;

    The first, main issue I’ve been having is that very often, ads will break. The sound will cut out half way through the ad, and then at the end of the ad the player will just freeze and not load the stream. Sometimes it eventually resolves itself, sometimes I have to close and reload the stream (possibly giving another ad). I’m on iOS for info.

    Second, not so much a bug per se, but my god can you please vary the ad campaigns so that it doesn’t play the same ad every stream load/ad break? I’m sick…

  20. Ads are getting too much aggressive these days. At first they don't bug me that much because it usually plays when I enter the chat and doesn't play much in mid stream. But now it makes me less interested on watching channels that I don't have subs. It feels like I get them every 2 mins. It's like it's forcing me to buy a subscription. It's really frustrating. The platform is for entertainment but I'm getting less interested going further on watching. Also when there's an error pop up on the stream to refresh the video. Instead of streaming is…
