  1. When a chatter sends a message containing a banned term, they are met with the following message:
    "Your message wasn't posted due to conflicts with the channel's moderation settings."

    If the chatter is a harassing chatter, they will most likely just find a way to get past the banned words filter.

    Example, in this scenario the word 'apple' is banned:
    -> Chatter: 'Man, I really love this apple!"
    <- Twitch: 'Your message wasn't posted due to conflicts with the channel's moderation settings.'
    -> Chatter (trying to get past the filter): 'Man, I really love this app1e!' (notice how app1e gets…

  2. Hi, I've recently witness a channel being targeted 10 times in October by follow bots and already got 2K followers in 1 stream in November. That channel is using Serybot to counter and bans accounts instantly but some accounts still find a way to act as real followers. Also they started fake raiding 1 viewer for at least a minute. Wouldn't it be easier if Twitch had a universal bot on every channel that can track what Serybot is doing but with much more efficiency ? or at least a toggle on/off when an attack like that is…

  3. Under German law (§8 UrhG), and certainly under the equivalent copyright laws of various other countries, anyone who participates in the creation of a work is entitled to co-authorship.
    Theoretically, users who write in the Chat which is inserted in the stream footage can claim co-authorship of the stream.
    Yes, in this case one can argue that as with a call on live television, it must be expected that one's own contribution (like the voice on television), will be broadcast live.
    BUT: That streamers offer a VoD on Twitch is OPTIONAL. Also, that streamers record the stream and upload to…

  4. In general, don't recommend sexually explicit streams to people - but when you do, don't play their stream when users are redirected after reporting and blocking them.

  5. Hello community & staff.

    I come with suggestion on updating the gambling rules on Twitch.

    Currently (I speak from Finnish community), there are online casino streamers who use sites that support "group sessions". Meaning that viewers can join that session with real money, to play together with the streamer. This mechanic has been deployed fully by some finnish casino streamers as their main content and IMO it's extremely predatory.

    This is how one of the products, called WeSpin.


    "WHAT IS WESPIN?
    Both playing & streaming your favourite online casino games just became more sociable and potentially a more rewarding experience.

  6. Hey,

    Since I couldn't find a category for it in Support, I will put it as a bug/idea.
    When you don't login into twitch you can simply enter names of "mature content" channels and browse freely.

    I tested it on Smart TVs, phones, PCs and went to several known "mature content" (18+) channels and watched freely.
    This means any kid can watch freely that content.

    I recommend enforcing it that Mature Content requires Age + Mail verification.

  7. Hello..

    I have a specific problem with a "Kick Back Dreamer by Chill Mode" showing up as copyright flags on my vods.

    This song is NOT in my lofi music playlists, yet it's flag has popped up 3 times on two streams recently all false, even trying to claim 2 different songs in same vod.

    For now, I WILL appeal the flag on this song "Kick Back Dreamer by Chill Mode" every time it shows up because I know it is a false flag. I make great efforts to mix and curate music for my streams to be as safe…

  8. I would like you to ban the name Karen when used as a term of abuse and harassment. Knowing people named Karen, who are very sweet people, it upsets me to see others use their name is such ways. I feel the use of any name as a term for bullying is wrong, especially considering my own experiences with bullying due to my name.

  9. Having hook-nosed goblin bankers is blatant anti-Jew propaganda, it has always been. This new game only pushes this even further. I feel like antisemetism is once again on the rise, and having these caricatures walking around in a game is seriously concerning.

    I feel like even if this wasn’t intentional, it still should not have happened, especially after already have been warned. They could have at least changed the hook noses.

    Now we’re allowing the streaming of a game with these undertones, and keeping a known hateful person’s work in the spotlight.

  10. I would like to formalize an idea. Recently, there have been multiple instances of a VTuber getting banned for using art on their channel which was created by the artist on stream. I do think that an art that is created on stream for one creator, should be for another creator wearable. That is to say, I think you are full of ***. WTF on nyanners. Kiss my **. One art is all art. And the puppeteer cannot be held suit for the puppet maker. If the puppeteer is at fault for the puppet maker, then the puppet…

  11. I would like to give feedback about the crackdown on twitch and gambling. If twitch decides not to support slots/casino streamers. Then you should probably not support gammers in general. No difference in someone playing slots/casino games versus someone who is playing a MMO or RPG that is gambling/rolling stats for an item - it is still gambling if it is real money or fake money. Not to mention the fact that you can microtransaction a lot of stuff in games for in game content/money. Casinos want people partnerships with streamers to bring in players to the casino. Gaming companies…

  13. I think the new tool is kinda helpfull because it's easier to report and makes it more efficient but i think maybe the problem is in how easy is to create multiple accounts. I've seen people that i reported a few minutes later on the chat again with another account. Maybe it'd be better to make it more difficult to create it or have another way to verificate it.

  14. My suggestion: add a follower bot etc to our channel. have a quick action button in the publisher panel where, when fired, publishers can submit reports with a single click. Press this button from quick actions when the broadcaster is exposed to fake follower bots. With a single click, the twitch team will be notified. Twitch should delete those bots as soon as possible. No one should have any trouble with this. Because most people don't know what to do about it! I think it would be a very practical and beautiful solution.

  15. you need to have more selections on the report tool not less! the ones that u have to choose to progress have zero relevance to the issues we face. someone pretending to be someone else, scamming and more and there is nothing u can click. i dont think u have improved it at all. in fact u have made it impossble to report ban evaders and more! bring back the choices for goodness sake.

  16. Well basically i ran into something recently with a streamer and i noticed twitch team doesn't look at reports for stuff like that apparently but Xbox does this why not have a group of select people be like twitch mods for twitch itself to look into stuff like making sexual comments to minors letting minors ban evade and stuff like this channel i ran into as i mention in start the streamer itself makes creepy comments to the minors and lets minors talk trash to mods itself Also lets the minors ban evade and refuses report the minors that said…

  17. My streams keep getting audio claims for loading slate songs that I know are copyright free. Do you just let people upload mp3's and claim their contents belong to them? Try actually doing a background check on the claimers instead of just sending out a bot to mute everything. By the way, not every song with sleigh bells is "Emni" by "Khakaks".

  18. When you ask that we provide our home address to fight a stupid miss match from your algorithm, you make your own content creators the bad guys. already guilty and ready to be served for litigation. You should bear the brunt of your own mismatching algorithm and not the creator.

  19. From what I have seen here on Twitch are that streamers among the Furry and LGBTQA+ communities are being punished over nothing and ruins their content. There is a humungous lack of support and equality coming from Twitch moderators as people go and report the named streaming communities emotes, vods, etc. Someone else had pointed out a streamer that is doing a "Just Chatting" and "Cooking" stream but is literally acting sexual towards their chat. Why aren't streamers like this reported, moderated, and removed from the Twitch platform? If they want to go make money by being sexual with their…
