  1. Concerning the issue of malicious individuals using multiple accounts to target specific users in order to abuse the measures mentioned above and force their suspension, I think chat-related issues can usually managed within channel moderation grounds without any active involvement of Twitch, except for the cases in which severe violations occure.

    The current system imposes a 14-day suspension for repeated harassment towards others, which I consider excessive, for it can lead to mumerous mistaken suspensions. Additionally, avenues for appealing these suspensions are limited, raising concerns that users may leave Twitch if this issue persists.

    Many acquaintances have experienced mistaken suspensions,…

  2. I have recommendations that not only helps users, but more importantly protect TWITCH itself.

    • Number the policies into clear enforceable points(e.g. policy SC-2b-iv)
    • In enforcement emails, show clear timestamps that shows the violation and quote the policy number violated using the numbering above.

    Making the policy itself is a difficult, intricate task which requires multi-faceted considerations that may be obscure to the general user. Thus I trust twitch has qualified specialists for the actual policy creation. However vague ENFORCEMENT leaves the corporate vulnerable to public image attacks that is extremely dangerous especially for a corporate which depends on advertisers. Clearly…

  3. These aspects of the guidelines seem incongruent with the interests of a younger audience, potentially exposing them to content that may not be suitable for their age group.

    Examples of their recent changes to their guidelines permit what they call "artistic nudity", poledancing, and twerking. On top of this, the guidelines effectively state that there is no age restriction (i.e. 18+).

    I find this blatant disregard for child safety on the internet incredibly disturbing, and given Twitch has had controversies in the past regarding sexual misconduct, they choose to update their guidelines to include it instead of taking action against…

  4. you recently updated the sexual tos https://safety.twitch.tv/s/article/Updating-our-Approach-to-Sexual-Content-and-Content-Classification-Labels?language=en_US states that I shouldn't be getting recommendations with naked or basically naked, but top of recomendations is just strippers with barely covering nips doing sex dances for subs and bits, with *** out, **** out showing underboob constantly and not even tagged or classified, literally it's the day you've changed the guidelines and all recommendations are flooded with unwatchable trash degrading the platform. Can we filter out these so you don't get recommended these, can you make it so it's own category not just chatting which every stream does and means usally chatting,…

  5. A channel I'm currently subscribed to has been getting reports from bad actors that have been triggering automatic suspensions. Despite being told repeatedly every time the channel gets reinstated that it was an error on Twitch's part, the flagrant reporting continues and the channel continues to be suspended. Twitch needs to be able to do more to protect channels from being targeted by mass reporting and suspension. It makes it impossible for popular channels to exist if this is being done.

  6. Dear Twitch Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express deep concerns and respectfully request a reconsideration of the recent Terms of Service (TOS) update, specifically pertaining to sexual content, on the Twitch platform.

    While we acknowledge the necessity of maintaining a safe and inclusive environment for all users, the latest TOS adjustments appear to have inadvertently created a significant negative impact, especially among the younger audience. There is a growing prevalence of individuals disregarding the guidelines, promoting explicit content, including links to adult services like OnlyFans, and displaying graphic sexual imagery during live streams.…

  7. With this latest TOS update, the only remaining difference between Twitch and Chaturbate is the fact that on the second you can masturbate on cam, which at this rate you will allow in a matter of months.
    A platform that fails to enforce its own rules is a failing platform, I honestly believe that within 2-3 years most serious streamers will have already moved to Kick or YouTube, because there will no longer be space on this platform for their content.
    Over time, Twitch will become a site intended for *********** and will remain only, as it already is now,…

  8. Content tagged with “sexual themes” should be in an entirely separate category. I absolutely and unequivocally do not consent to being shown what are essentially h*ntai thumbnails when I’m trying to scroll through and see artists, no matter how artfully it is depicted.

    Separate the content into a new category called “nsfw art” or something similar.

  9. While I believe that creators should have some freedom to do what they want, I also believe viewers should have the freedom to exclude certain content from their searches on Twitch. As is right now, I cannot find a way to filter out streams marked with "Sexual Themes" through the search bar on Twitch. Simply searching the word "art" brings up any stream with the "art" tag, which could be a stream with the "Sexual Themes" CCL.

    In fact I just did this, the top 5 results included two streams of IRL streamers in barely any clothes, dancing in a…

  10. When Twitch staff receives reports with clear proof that a streamer is in violation of guidelines, they ignore the reports and deliberately fail to take action. I know because I have sent reports stating the violation, linking the rule being violated, and included screenshots and video clips. Everything is made perfectly clear. Yet, hours later, the streamer is still streaming doing the same thing. And this has happened many many times over a year.

    If the streamer is continuing to do it, then whatever punishment Twitch is imposing, probably none, is not enough. The streamer continues to do it because…

  11. Ever since the new guideline changes have been announced, a flood of streamers drawing and watching hentai on twitch has emerged. some of them not even using labels. this can be VERY harmful to minors to log onto a site with a new account only to see *. while i do agree that artists deserve more freedom to do things like anatomy and actual artistic nudity, its not a great idea to have * full of minors. much like myself. Ive also seen people playing hentai games and using sex mods (like the jenny mod for Minecraft) while on…

  12. Its nice to see the new policies regarding nudity and sexual content but you might want to add a few things:

    When you go into the art category, the preview of those streams that showcase nudity are not blurred and you don't even have to log-in in order to watch them

    For this i suggest that you blur all nudity streams, add a filter for the people who don't want to see that type of content and force people to log-in in order to watch +18 streams

    I have also seen nudity showcasing paraphilias like "loli" and "feral" animals, it…

  13. You cant avoid this stuff. You go to twitch's front page and you see women clearly showing as much boob as possible without it being pornographic just to draw in ***** viewers. It's a game to them, how far can they push the line without breaking the rules.. Full screen cam with no game being played. No art being done. Literally just sitting there bouncing around to jiggle you know what. It's shameful that twitch allows this on their site nowadays. Dont be stupid Twitch, we all know what they're doing. They're going to keep doing it until you get…

  15. Twitch is starting to fall apart. I'm a guy, does this mean i can stream on web cam shirtless? As long as i label as adult content? What about just in my boxers?

    Twitch needs to focus on what twitch is about, gaming and making content. If you want to do only fan stuff, then make an only fans.

    If you're going to have an adult section of twitch make it accessible only to 18+ and keep the two content separate.

  16. I think that the minimum age requirement to create an account should be 18 yrs old. If you are going to start allowing women who are naked on stream, but have the camera cut off at their ****, to be able to dance provocatively. Then the minimum age to create/have an account on your site should be 18! You also need a better way to confirm someone is 18, other than just clicking a button to confirm they want to see mature content. Nothing is stopping/preventing minors from coming across this kind of content. Adult content, like nudity, shouldn't be…

  17. Allow nudity or at least partial nudity like other social media apps like Twitter,Instagram, YouTube ect. The majority of Twitch users are now over 18 years old according to recent data (Links Below), and adding 18+ content could expand user base IMO
    https://www.streamscheme.com/twitch-statistics/
    https://www.businessofapps.com/data/twitch-statistics/

    As for users under 18, Twitch can add strict age verification rules, All Korean streaming sites already do this & 18+ content can be demonetized like YouTube does with adult content, if advertisers have a problem with their ads running on any of the content. Also it's important to note that apps like Twitter have had…

  18. Specify "direct or indirect" in rule about "linking to pornographic or sexually explicit content" because streamers are posting "link trees" listing sites where they post explicit pornography such as OnlyFans.

    https://safety.twitch.tv/s/article/Community-Guidelines?language=en_US#20SexuallyExplicitContentandSexualServices

    Make "linking to pornographic or sexually explicit content"

    read "directly or indirectly linking to pornographic or sexually explicit content".

  20. Please apply a little enforcement on Sexual Content users using incorrect categories such as "Just Chatting" when they should be using "Pools, Hot Tubs, and Beaches" for example.
