These dumpy emotes are just harmless ferret butts shaking in circles. It does not show any human dumpy and it is just a cute ferret's behind. Thank you and we hope you make an exception for this dumpy!

I agree with the sentiment from PirateSoftware. I can understand twitch not wanting explicit content on their platform. Provided it is not containing nudity or sexually explicit content what is the harm in allowing people to have these silly emotes. They provide fun and joy.

We as the followers of piratesoftware really love and thrive with this emote. Please allow us to use the emote again. It is a fun and goofy emote that is not inappropriate or harmful in anyway.

Stop trolling Twitch. Give us Dumpy and UNDERBOOB.

The "dumpy" emote is purely a comedic and silly emote that helps bring the community together through a humorous collective cheer such as a pog or cheer. This emote is seen as both a tool for humour and jesting at the streamer and is not a symbol of anything sexually explicit. Thank you for your consideration, and I'm sure we could settle on adjustments if the team has any recommendations

The use of this emote (yarrDumpy) is meant to be humorous and light hearted, its use does not connotate anything explicit or sexual, its original source is also PG.

While I agree that sexual content should be kept off Twitch animated cartoon animals shaking a blank butt does not fall under that umbrella in my opinion.

The Dumpy emote may violate the exact letter of TOS, but definitely not the spirit nor the intentions that come across. Just like Gasm-style emotes, which are explicitly allowed even though they are definitely somewhat sexual in nature, Dumpy-style emotes deserve their own specific exemption.

This type of emotes shouldn't violate any guideline. It's fun and funny. I see nothing wrong with it.

I've seen the emote and it doesn't look like it violates any community guidelines.

Agreed! Dumpy styled emotes are widely loved by the Twitch community and for the most part, these emotes are created in a light hearted manner for the purpose of positive engagement in chat among viewers. The claim that this emote is at all "sexual" is false as it came from a 21st century children's movie that had a PG rating.

While I understand the need to ban sexual content however I believe that dumpy style emotes are not sexually explicit itself. It’s based off of an animated PG movie and if it’s fine for cable TV then it should be more than appropriate for Twitch. Thank you for taking the time to read this comment and hope we can come to a mutual understanding on this issue

The dump emote is a fun emote to use in Twitch chat. Those creating dumpies in good faith have done so without any sexual meaning since it's been traced from a PG-rated film. Selectively removal of dumpies is very sad to see. TOS rules should make an exception for animals and or animated characters unless they are made to be sexually explicit and dealt with in each instance. You should also allow the content creator to appeal their emotes flagged as breaching TOS.

I understand Twitch is going through some changes in their policies regarding sexual content and their identity as a platform. However, emotes in this style do not fit the TOS rules, in my opinion, especially for animals or animated characters.

with regards a real human being . . . . . i hope

I agree that this emotion is not against TOS and does not carry any sexual context. This is just a funny and cute animal animation. The author even indicated that she looks like a cartoon, with a rating of PG-13.

There are significantly more channels across Twitch that have way more "offensive" emotes, including those that are showing full "butt-cheeks", or even partial nudity, which still remain on twitch.

Dumpy emotes do not contain any nudity in any fashion, and for specifics, the emote that has been removed recently, has no nudity, and should not go against Twitch ToS.

I can understand that some people will have "pushed the line" with the changes in the content guidelines, but I feel that much more clarification will be needed for "What is allowed", and "Where twitch will draw the line", because currently, I feel that the limitations are extremely strict, on emotes that are not sexually explicit, especially around animated emotes (and not human imitation content).

I agree with this, I believe the ToS needs to be adjusted/updated to reflect this style of content.

Hold up, Twitch?! Removing Dumpy emotes feels unfair. They're just happy butts, like PogChamp's head or Kappa's tongue, right? No nudity, just meme culture inspired by a PG movie. Plus, these emotes bring communities together! So many people love them.

Instead of a ban, maybe age-gate them or have a stricter approval process? Let's keep Twitch fun and inclusive, not confusing!

I do not see anything explicit with this emote. If it was appropriate enough for a kids movie then there is nothing wrong with it. It isn't inappropriate, it's fun for the community.

This is a harmless emote. It's fun and I would even show this to my 3 year old, she'd think it's funny.

nothing wrong with the emote. Come on twitch. Of all the emotes you could ban you picked one that is based on a pg movie? Seriously?
