sometimes bots or maybe some random report could get an account banned. seems like out of nowhere, but the community wants to help for appeal but what if they arent getting heard? what if they were just brushed under the rug and not looked upon? how serious are things being taken into account? What is one streamer to All of Twitch?

The Community should be able to help the streamer push for an appeal, push to be seen, to be noticed. Answers need answering, we are all people too, Small streamers, big streamers, we should be equal for support. But what will be heard? the voice of on persn or the Crowd behind them supporting?

You are experiencing a backlash regarding your nonsensical attire rules because you are so out of touch. Drop them, modern platforms must be the bastions of free expression and not support outrageous suppression of expression.

The only restriction necessary to comply with general law is that no one under the age of 18 is allowed to expose themselves in a ****** manner. You might try to restrict content to underage users but frankly, those users interested in such content will get it and it will not appeal to those not interested. Those interested in such content are merely expressing their own needs.

I am not sure what prompted you to decide to implement such draconian rules, but rest assure they are misguided at best.

So me and my friend have been wanting to play together on stream but she is an adult and I am a minor so due to you guidelines we have not been able to could this please be changed abit like you have to be over thirteen or something for it to be allowed because if you can watch it what is the difference. There really is not one so you contradict you own rules when you allow minors to watch someone curse but then when you go to play with them they get in trouble it just make no sense at all so please if you read this lower the age requirement

Why don't you mix the 'Watch Parties' service and Amazon Prime Music together?

It's a service in Twitch in joint with Amazon Prime Music
so that the Creator could play a music and the only way the viewers can
listen to the music is by registering through their own Amazon Prime account.

I'm going to call this 'Tune Parties'.

For people that just listen to music during stream, the streamer plays music on the
'Tune Parties', and viewers have a option to hop in just like the current 'Watch Parties' service.

However, in case of streams of music creators who play instruments or do karaoke,
not only they use 'Tune Parties' to play their music, but the viewers are entered
only if they log in to their own Amazon Prime account.

This will profit Amazon Prime Music, respect the artists that make the music.

Please do make this come true.
I believe this will heavily benefit Amazon Prime Music service and respect the artists.

Respectfully,
A Viewer.

Here's what:
Streamer A, Man, presumed straight, plays a modded game, gets a ban for a few seconds of in-game nip slips that he wasn't aware of and he even averted the view to try to abide by the terms.

Meanwhile:
Streamer B, Twitchthot (Woman), dresses in langerie, does dance, spreads her and in front of the cam for ALMOST A MINUTE AND MORE, and she gets a slap on the wrist and a 3 day ban. She also has an "OnlyFans" account of sorts where she sells herself like a cheap .

That's unacceptable conduct on Twitch Staff. Streamer A should have just have been warned and the VOD edited to remove infringing content, no ban should have happened AT ALL; Streamer B should have been permanently banned with no chance to appeal. So just properly start enforcing your policies as you should!

So I've been fed up with "Just Chatting" category as it's been loaded mostly with half naked chicks, it is what it is I get that the money flows, none of my reports been checked - no one cares as long as the money keeps on going.
Sadly it's so sad yet funny that someone already made 9gag post about it https://9gag.com/gag/amPLe04 - now you do what you want with your platform, I recommend on moving just chatting out of twitch.tv to IDK *.tv - you guys seem to forgot the base foundation of twitch - for gamers by gamers.
Soft let them go elsewhere - own it or not it is not the place for such content.

on one channel I am being singled out above all others saying "you need to subscribe"
the thing is I have supported the persons channel with a gift using paypal but this broadcaster either does not remember or ignored the support I provided. I also bought a tee shirt at close to $30 for a total of $80 in support. I just sent him a copy of the paypal transaction.
so I am recommending that you add to your Community guidelines that content creators are not to single out and harass people on there cat. I have already had to defend my self on another persons chat

Pretty simple actually. With the new Steam policies about getting more NSFW games and more Illusion Games SFW versions in the same platform, i'm sure that list is pretty outdated and needs more games getting banned. (Koikatsu: Party is SFW if you don't include a specific patch from the official game to be NSFW).
And not more sexually, high gruesome or extreme violence should be there too, Hatred is the best example nowadays and isn't include in the list. Postal 2 isn't neccesary for being more ironic & sartastic rather than polemic because yes.
Games being bad and only popular for the things i mentioned earlier should be there too.
More than that, probably i missed something but the idea in general is explained. I saw earlier the counterpart of this idea and that's good, but not in a plataform like this when anything NSFW (even accidentaly) could get you banned.
That's all.
PD: I'm not a English native speaker so probably there's typos.

Hello Twitch,

Over the past year I have seen a number of people popping up who making claims of been representatives and/or advocates of protected groups (to be more precise people with disabilities), on major platforms such as Youtube, Twitter and Twitch. What disturbs me about this is lack of professionalism some of these people exhibit, I hope you do understand that a lot of people do want to private, discrete and above all be treated with respect when it comes to their disability. It does disturb me when I see certain partnered Twitch streamers use other disabled people's conditions and in a few cases their deaths to bully and harass other disabled people.

I would like ask Twitch to add to it's community guidelines that users are not allowed to make public claims of been representatives or advocates of this protected group. I am not saying people cannot claim to be a supporter or activist for disabled people or that a disabled person is an example of what other disabled people may be like. What I am saying is unless you have a legal paper to say you represent another person and/or group and are authorized by that party to speak on their behalf, you should not be making the claim to be a representative or advocate.

Thank you for your time.

I am certain that we have all reported a user on Twitch before, as I have since making my account in early 2017. However, recently, after reporting a user, I received an email saying "We've actioned on your report" in regards to a report that I submitted previously.

There was very little present in that email. It simply told me that my safety report was reviewed and staff determined that a violation of the Terms of Service and Community Guidelines had occurred, and proper enforcement action has been taken. That is it. That is all that was included in the email. For an email that is supposed to update you on what happened after a report in regards to a very serious issue, there was very little to get out of that email. A lot of the things that, in my opinion, should have been included in that were simply absent. Here is what I would like to change about it:

Include the original report(s)
This would serve two very important purposes: it will tell you the user who you reported and what they were reported for. As someone who has reported a lot of accounts, especially this year when I have had a lot more time to stream on Twitch, it is difficult for me to know who the user I reported was. Including the original report would allow me to see exactly what user I reported. Including the original report would also remind me of what all I reported the user for and what evidence I presented or was available at the time, which is relevant to a safety report such as the one I submitted. The exact details I reported are not relevant to these suggestions, but understand that the situation I reported has extended to platforms beyond Twitch even after the report. Including the report(s) that were considered would address both of these problems.

Describe the enforcement action taken
Safety reports or reports concerning Community Guidelines or Terms of Service violations may involve things such as abuse, threats or acts of harassment, bullying, and many more things in which someone may experience long-term harm. Again, while I do not believe the details of my report are relevant, the things that I reported have the potential to cause long-lasting damage for the people affected. In the case of a reported abuser, it will most definitely bring comfort to the victims knowing that the abuser will have their account terminated and will no longer be able to create additional accounts. It does not have to be anything complex, it can be something as simple as "The account of the user who you have reported has been terminated and indefinitely suspended from the use of our services." As long as it lets the person who submitted know that something more than just a warning or a suspension had occurred.

Whether or not both of these changes are enacted, more should be included in an email describing that action was taken following a user report.
