  1. Earlier today was victim to a hacked game account after following a link in the description of a channel, normally i do tend to be very careful but i was caught out by the fact it was top trending/most viewers of that specific game. By using a clip from an official stream they managed to dupe myself and probably plenty others. Now the blame is definitely on myself for not double checking but i do feel there must be a simple way to avoid these type of "con's" ... even if just putting a sizable delay on the visible amount…

  3. Is there a way to implement software that would recognize and suspend accounts which abuse the report feature? and those who spam report/file false reports against streamers based on their gender/race etc.? There has been an influx of streamers who are following Twitch ToS to a T, yet, due to their gender/sexual orientation/race, are being targeted, and reported for things they did not do or terms they did not violate. i.e. a streamer being reported for inappropriate attire and nudity, when she was wearing Christmas PJ's while gaming and the individual who reported her, bragged about it, told her he…

  4. 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.

  5. Protect streamers from false copyright claims. We don't want this to become like Youtube where anyone can just claim your content without any repercussions.

    There are hundreds of fake accounts stealing music from video games and voicing rap over it, posting it as original content and then claiming the original video game music as their own whenever it is played on a stream.

    Countering it takes entering your full name and address. No way anybody is gonna appeal those muted vods or copyright claims by submitting that info.

  6. The hacking and/or hijacking of accounts for malicious purposes has been a known and happened issue on Twitch and is apparently detrimental for the safety of all users, either with accounts hacked or affected by subsequent malicious activities such as fraud or hate spam.
    So, it would be good to have more active methods for users to report accounts that start to have suspicious activities, other than passively remind everyone to protect their own accounts.

    Recently on a channel where I work as a moderator, there was a user who had been talking normally in the chat for several months…

  7. I have seen so many ridiculous emotes get removed. Middle fingers, a butt shaking, dancing are not offensive and it is absolutely childish to ban an emote that is literally just pixels showing things that every iPhone and Android have (the middle finger)

  8. Just wanted to bring attention to how many pre recorded scam streams are happening at "Pools, Hot Tubs & Beaches" IRL streams. I went through and saw 7 of the same exact stream across 7 different "Users" all have a scam link attached to the stream title and are all probably stolen and pre recorded streams. This leaves uninformed users vulnerable to falling for these traps.

  10. 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.

  11. Twitch should offer all users the option to print a QR code they can post in the window of their home that when scanned reads "THIS HOUSE IS OCCUPIED BY TWITCH STREAMER [Link to their specific account] - LAW ENFORCEMENT, PLEASE VERIFY WHETHER THIS ACCOUNT IS STREAMING BEFORE ENTERING THE HOME"

    This would 1) potentially reduce the incidence of injuries sustained through swatting, and 2) be a responsible and easy way for Twitch to show they want to give their users the ability to protect themselves while streaming.

  12. When I visit appeals.twitch.tv I am no longer logged in from the main page twitch.tv. I think it's annoying to go through 2FA again only because I visited a subdomain. Is this intended?

  13. The top streamers on twitch, XQC, Hassan, Asmongold, etc... are making more money in a year than most people will ever see in a lifetime. Yet, you might notice tuning into there streams, literally all they do is restream other peoples content, violating copyright law, and more importantly stealing hundreds of thousands of hours of other peoples hard work, solely for profit. This patently disgusting, the fact that twitch has become a place for inconsiderate thieves to grow fat, and rich off the labour of others is repulsive, and blatantly illegal. The largest most wealthy people on your website should…

  14. Everytime 2 players play eachother, they should block the stream from the other streamer that is watching them. IP address connection or something. since it has something to do with video connection. Maybe ask other streaming platforms if they have fixed it. See if they have any ideas. Don't they have some kind of connection on the game when two people are connected together, ask the company of the game to help you with this so it can ban other players from looking onto their enemies stream. Have it where connections between stream watchers and people on microphones that are…

  15. There's a filter for 18+ streams. I believe that bringing up sexuality at all is already causing a stream to do that. Many people take advantage of this filter and get viewers as a result. Filters LGBTQ Gay and Furry are all revealing sexuality. Any people who use such filters and aren't at 18+ for their streams should be in big trouble and may be pulling in child audiences.

  17. Would be great if Twitch did something about targeted harassment.

    [2 FBI IC3 reports, 1 CPD report, 1 civil lawsuit against the streamer later...Twitch continues to do nothing]

  18. Spam Bots continue to raid the platform. My friends and I are getting spam bots that go to websites such as Dogehype. Although their services are cheap, it is still untrusted, and I want to suggest that any form of "dot com" should be a red flag.
