Content warnings Having content warnings is absolutely ridiculous for anyone who is over 18. Don't treat your users who are adults like children. We don't need to be warned that the people we sub to swear in their streams.

I would like the Content label for Family Friendly/non-swearing commentary I see the new stream labels, but don't see one for those who don't swear on screen. we feel kinda left out in the label update.

A username AT user.twitch.tv email address for chat ban appeals and other stuff not meant for chatting public If you want to talk about reinstating chat rights to someone who thinks they've been wrongly chat banned, there should be some way to get a hold of this person, especially from more than 5 years ago.
So twitch streamers don't have to give out their private email addresses they should be given a public email address that ends in twitch.tv. , Maybe @user.twitch.TV to differentiate it from corporate people who write from twitch?
That way they could deal with administration of their twitch stream fairly and honestly without involving the chatting public.
This was based on my experiences over…

More age levels than just Mature and Ages. I couldn't tell if one stream in my personal experience long ago was supposed to be for young children and family audiences or if it was supposed to be for teen audiences.
I tried to be careful but I said one wrong thing, that would be considered rated T on a video game, and I got immediately thrown off and suspended from their twitch chat without giving a chance to explain or anything like that.
At the time there was no rule about the level of chat that was expected from the audience. Like for example you could request the…

Prevent bot attacks Channel-following bot attacks seem to be back again. It is quite upsetting when content creators are streaming wether talking with the chat or just playing while they tell viewers how they feel when all of a sudden a bunch of notifications with pretty weird names pop up.
Streamers and viewers know that it is quite difficult to control these attacks considering that they are done every day, at any time. Despite the fact that there are some tools that in one way or another allow us to remove these bots, many of us believe that it would be better to…

Stolen identity I don't know, if I am right here. I am a new streamer on Twitch and someone was in the chat and took my number to request a call back. So I was called from 10 different numbers or more during the stream. Then I said, that I will stop here, because I can't work like this and someone commented: Defeated. It is all becaus people want to stop other people from streaming. How could that happen here? Do something against these idiots.

Lighter Restrictions While it is great to restrict inappropriate and negative responses in chat, it would be nice to lighten some of the restrictions that force those that do have generally positive, constructive, and/or harmless responses to be deleted while timing a user out. The DM chat provides a failing alternative to this, forcing other methods to also result similarly to the above punishment, if not a more worse punishment. Fixing this issue can also provide a method that can also bring more content creators and viewers to Twitch.

Formal Complaints I would like to know how to make a formal complaint about the lack of responce from the reports system on your platform. I have been suffering abuse and harassment for a month from the same user and I have reported every time they have said or done something abusive or harassment, which has been at least 10 reports over the month and I have been given no responce and no action has been taken. I wish to make a formal complaint about this as the lack of responce is disgusting and the fact this streamer is still, a month…

Help ordinary users by allowing us to access channel history data, for example its ban history, that we can access before subscribing. Sometimes Twitch might recommend a channel, and we go there, dedicate much effort to good participation in it, support the streamer by using the Amazon link, then for no apparent reason, suddenly we have a notice that our account is permanently banned. This could ruin almost one month of a subscription, perhaps even more.
If ordinary users have a little power too, to access a channel's ban rate for example, then we might know to be wary about dedicating ourselves as much to the channel, and perhaps not even to subscribe to that particular channel.

Regex filters and whitelist rules Given the widespread use of hostile bots on Twitch right now by bad actors, particularly those targeting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, it would be great if we could have a RegEx pattern block/ban/follow restriction option. A number of the accounts being spun up for the purpose of harassing and stealing the identities of streamers have consistent name patterns, and being able to issue a regex block/ban on those patterns would be useful.
This sort of feature would obviously be something that streamers would have to use at their own risk. Overly inclusive block/ban patterns could potentially limit legitimate viewers. But…

18+ or adult only mode, so we can have mature language, violence, nudity, sex and sexual content A mode that is only accessible to verified adults where adults can stream adult content or watch it, adult games are still video games. Adults shouldn't be thrown under the bus just because they like that content and after that one woman got banned twice for having sex live on twitch and came back in short order after raking in obscene money in the process.
Now I don't have an issue with the act itself what two consenting adults do is up to them. Its mainly the wonky enforcement.
So instead of twitch being two faced about it just make…

Remove followers tool Please add a feature that allows the Streamer to manually remove followers. Banning a user doesn't remove them from your followers list anymore. Users are still able to receive notifications of all of your activity, or in the case of stalkers and ban evaders, they just create new accounts to follow you around to receive these notifications and keep tabs on you.

Appeal Review Timeline Suspension appeals should have a clear timeline. Additionally it should be clear that it has actually been recieved & where it is in the process. It shouldnt take months to review a vod "pending" is not a clear acknowledment of reciept let alone a clear communication of expectd timeline. It leaves "innocent" parties hanging in limbo sometimes with slanderous accusations having been made.

Default font is causing impersonation problems This suggestion is based on PositiveIona's idea at https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/933812-safety/suggestions/44529945-sans-serif-fonts
However, the suggestion to use serif-fonts to resolve the lower case 'l' vs upper case 'I' problem (to clarify the first one is an 'L' and the second one is an 'i') will make the platform less accessible for certain people, ESPECIALLY those with dyslexia. So you'd just be replacing one problem with an entirely new one.
I'd like to propose that, instead of adding serifs, we should find a font that distinguishes the letters more clearly whilst still being sans-serif.
Some examples include: Verdana, Tahoma, Trebuchet, or Open-Dyslexic; though I'm…31 votes -
Very unsatisfied with Twitch customer communication and actioning of reports Hello,
I recently had an awful experience on Twitch that makes me uninterested in further using the service. This does involve a suspension, but please give me a chance to explain, it is not my goal to evade said suspension.
On March 17th I reported a user for sending me a NSFW **** link in my private messages. It was actioned on the same day, then exactly 7 days later on March 24th I was suspended very suddenly for allegedly sharing "sexually explicit content in public or private messages".
At this time I have served the suspension and would like…

The Issue with the Hot Tub Meta Recently in the twitch community, there has been a rise of hot tub streamers also known as the "Hot Tub Meta". This has been a very controversial issue but I'm going to give my thoughts on the issue and hopefully twitch will do something about this. On twitch TOS it's stated "Content or camera focus on breasts, buttocks, or pelvic region, including poses that deliberately highlight these elements". This means any sort of content that deliberately does these would be against TOS. Now when we look at how the Hot Tub Meta we can see that it's unhealthy and unfair…

Warning/Reporting option for users who break Kayfabe Vtubers and others who wish to hide potential past lives or the like often post such rules in their channels, which are almost always ignored by others who don't care about the legitimate reasons for wanting to start anew or not have any of their information be leaked online. At least the ability to send a private warning to other users for flagrant breaches of privacy and then a ban request if they continue to ignore it would be much appreciated.

Better moderation and banning rules Okay, I just wanted to ask if you could review your bannable behaviours: I found out that a streamer was permbanned for saying the world "blacks". I don't think that you should ban someone, worst if it is a streamer, for saying such a thing. Instead, the racist ones are the moderators. If saying "black" is racist, the only thing I can say is that only racist people could have the idea to think that it is racist. Come on, start thinking.

Improve Chat Ban Appeals! Why is it that we only get one chance to appeal to a ban? All I try to do is atone for my sins and be accepted again. Being banned from a chat of a channel that you follow for so long just because you made a clueless mistake is unfair. Can't I make an appeal once a year, whether through time of if it gets denied? It will mean the world to me if I get a cool down of ban appeals. And the message box is too small. I would appreciate it if you made the ban appeal…
