  1. Lately I've been watching a streamer who has been a prime target for multiple follow bot attacks.

    I suspect it is one of their regular viewers, however there is no real premise to report specifically for suspecting someone of actually launching the follow bot attacks.

    And there needs to be a section where any potential proof can be uploaded, such as images, videos, and chat logs.

    If Twitch wants more extensive reports, then Twitch needs to provide us with the means to do so.

  2. If you set up a global default tag in Stream Info, the stream goes live with those tags on it, and then you remove one of those tags during the stream, it will come back and be locked once the stream becomes a video. Since it's locked, it can't then be removed again (at least by the Editor role).

    Ideally, any tag removed during a stream will not be put back for the VOD but, if that behaviour is intentional, they should at least not be locked. The particular tag in question is the Family Friendly one, & that should…

  3. I'm a viewer who was enjoying the broadcast on Twitch.
    I remember what Twitch said when adding Hottub streaming to the category.
    You mentioned,
    "being found to be SEX_Y by others is not another rules, and Twitch will not take action again, or any one on our service, for given attention."

    But I don't think this standard applies equally to all streamers.
    it's generous to 'Big' western streamers and is applied harshly to relatively small channels.
    In particular, many female streamers who use dance as their main content are suffering damage, such as being intimidated by these ambiguous…

  4. Sometimes a new game gets released and its not listed under banned games even though it should definitely get banned from Twitch. There should be a way to suggest new games to get added to the list... Don't know why you don't have one already.. this is a gaming site...........

  5. First of all, y’all ban hard working streamers for accidentally opening a page on there stream that they have no control of what is gonna pop up. While y’all have this female streamer being almost fully nude on stream while there is little kids watching, and they get away with almost anything. But as soon as some hard working male streamers accidentally open a link against tos y’all ban them and don’t even send them a email of there suspension? Please make this make sense cause I’m speechless. I have no word to describe how disappointed I am with twitch.

  6. Farm simulator, I keep getting copywrite wrnings from it- did you people know the game developers BOUGHT the RIGHTS to EVERY SONG in their GAME? YES... they did so playing the radio "in game radio" does not violate ANY copywrite laws!

  7. Twitch currently allows rampant view-botting because the view count includes embedded twitch apps in external websites. This creates a huge imbalance and unfair playing field for streamers who dont cheat.

    Nobody watches streams from external websites. They go there for info on any topic and are automatically counted as a viewer. Just think of the ways this can be exploited. I see it all the time on Twitch.

    The biggest way people discover streams is by who has the highest view count. This is a critical number that should be honest.

    After you fix this part of viewbotting, then we…

  8. I've encountered more and more streamers, who say that if they encounter a child / user who openly states they are below the age of 13, it is not their job to do anything about it.

    So I was wondering if Twitch could openly & clearly state on the policy of what a streamer is required to do when this occurs.

    For example, they must ban them & report them.
    or they can don't have to do anything.

    The way the rules are worded streamers don't have to do anything and can ignore them and come with a line of…

  9. First off I wanna thank RekItRaven for Shedding so much light on this issue that has been occurring for years. I have just started streaming 8 months ago and this is my 4th time this year getting hate raided. I’ve been called almost everything in the book. Now I have several ideas on how to make this better but for starters. You Need to obey the Blocked/Banned Order. Anyone who is Blocked Or Banned should not be able to Hate watch us thus risking another hate raid whether that be in the form of bullying or racism. 2. Have Better…

  10. can we please get less wait time on waiting for verification on twitch for our emotes.. 2 weeks is absolutely brutal. I have to wait the week usually it takes to make them, and then another 2 weeks to post to my channel, the wait time is brutal and would love to see an improvement made to the wait time if that's at all possible.

  11. Helloo
    an idea for the case of the gambling problem.

    Description:
    There are many games who is the nearly the same mechanism included what it is in casino games (like FIFA and they’er prominent pack openings).
    In my eyes are every game with in-game payment is a huge problem (especially for children with moms or dads credit card ;)).
    Clearly, I don’t want that every game are banned from twitch.

    Solution: an authorization/ information wall who informs the user shortly about the risk who can accrue and gives a port to call for addicts and more informations about the topic…

  12. I have found a username that appears to be available but is blocked within your system due to an error.

    The error shown is: "This user name may be offensive and is not allowed."

    I have attempted to report this several times since October and have been met with the same policies regarding recycling and name changes when it does not apply to this situation.

    If there is one name that is incorrectly being caught in your filter I'd assume other users may have this problem as well. If a username IS available and IS appropriate for use then I…

  14. Hello. I made a very long appeal to my suspension that took me over an hour to write. I made this appeal over a month ago and still did not get a response, or I can't tell if I got one or not because I did not receive an email about it. Either my appeal has been ignored for over a month, or it was seen and I can't tell it was. I just wish I could speak to an actual person about my problem, because all of Twitch's support options involve AI. Could a real person get in contact…

  15. Many streams have fun aspects such as alerts or scenes to celebrate events. Such as flashing lights or strobes like a rave to celebrate.
    Or other music streams center their whole channel around these rave type imagery.

    Flashing lights and colors is one of the biggest trigger for seizures for those with epilepsy.

    I propose giving streamers a feature just like “flag this channel as mature content” they can “flag this channel as containing flashing imagery” or something of the effect where just as when you enter a mature stream a pop up shows stating
    “This stream has flashing lights…

  16. В разделе Политика регулярно у некоторых стримеров из рф и рб натыкаюсь на пропаганду ненависти, на призывы к убийствам, на насмешки над уже мертвыми, на символику считающиеся во многих странах как символика ненависти типа "Z" "V". но твич ни как не реагирует на такие каналы, отправлял я и жалобы, но реакций небыло ибо твич не считает это нарушением (хотя по тем же правилам твича есть раздел об разжигании ненависти, травле, призывам к убийствам)
    Есть подозрение что большинство этих жалоб проверяет команда поддержки из рф и по этому они игнорируются. Тогда получается стримеры из рф могут где угодно кричать над тем…

  17. It's great that you have a "mature content" label as an option, but any kid can still simply click through that, they don't even need an account. Many creators that I watch simply don't want kids in their streams for various reasons.

    Make it so that creators can also require a login for the video stream of their channel to show up. Maybe when you click into the full stream it gives you an alert that you need to login.

  18. I personally do not have a quarrel with people having subathon's, though I do hope that they make every effort to maintain a healthy schedule for sleeping, eating, self-care, etc. I do feel that it is potentially misleading to some and saying the stream will perceivably "last forever" (as long as people continue to donate/sub) but then during stream announcing when the streamer will cap/limit the subathon, thus contradicting bot announcements and stream titles lacking or having omitted the now annouced limit to the stream. if people continue to donate or sub in effort to continue the streams timer, but…

  19. Ich würde mir wünschen, das das Melde System Vereinfacht wird Z.b. bei einer Bot Spam Attacke. Ein Tool einfügen bzw. ein Fenster wo man Einfach nur Melden muss und vielleicht nur noch eine Kategorie Auswählen so das man keine Stunde braucht um 50 Benutzer zu Melden ich hatte schon mehrere Bot (Troll) Attacken mit erleben müssen und habe Teilweise eine Stunde jeden Nutzer gesperrt, Was auch ne Idee wäre , wenn man Massen Meldungen Machen kann man Markiet die Chat Teilnehmer mit z.b. Rechtsklick wo ein Fenster auftaucht wo dann ne Option , Markieren und dann ein Button auftaucht melden…

  20. When a channel that has never broken TOS before suddenly gains a mass amount of viewers, streams in catagory never used before on the channel and spams malware links this really should be a red flag for bumping indefinite suspension appeals up the list for that user, between the amount of people being hacked vs the amount of people getting themselves suspended, the wait times are still sorely lacking for those facing issues not of their own cause, the appeals system simply does not have any support, many stream to support themselves financially but also for their mental health and…
