Recently I've noticed that new only casino streamers are coming to Twitch every day and it concerns me:

My concerns are:

• They use Twitch.tv PRIMARY as their affiliate marketing channel.
• They promise bonuses and campaigns for underage people and gambling addicts.
• These streams provide FALSE impression of casino games.
• Streamers who have deals with casinos play with unrealistic bonuses that normal people do not get.
• Some (not all) streamers are even absolute scammers who play with fake accounts.
• Streamers don´t give viewers realistic image of their affiliate or other casino connections.
• Streamers don't provide enough information about dangers of gambling or age limitations in casinos. It's profitable for them if underage makes account to casino.

This all concerns me. I don´t have anything against these people and I have nothing against casino games but recently these streams have gotten out of hand.

There are too much ONLY affiliate based streams and Casino Staff streams. They give biased impression to viewers of Casino games.

These streamers play thousands Euros each month with money that is only partly their own or not their own at all.
They get big wins. It gives false image of casino games to viewers. People get idea that they can win big when their chances are slim or less.

These streamers have so good affiliate deals that they deposit few hundred to get thousands to play with.
Some streamers get directly paid from casinos and they use Casinos own money.

Casino games are gambling. These streamers are NOT gambling in the same way they try to get their viewers to gamble.
Their deal is so good that they have very slim chance to lose. Even if they lose, they lose less money than they get paid by their affiliate deal or casino.
That is not gambling, that is marketing and their primary marketing tool is Twitch.TV. They are working to recruit new gamblers.

Because they are not gambling, they do not provide realistic image of casino games.

These streamers encourage people to create accounts to online casinos without telling that underage people won't be able to get their moneys or winnings withdrawn. How ever most of their viewers are underage.

I ask Twitch.TV with all respect to consider some of these steps to issue this problem:

• Ban all casino gaming
• Make stream limitations for casino games ( 70% of streamers weekly stream hours should be something else than casino games)
• Ban casino sponsored streams and affiliate marketing while streaming Casino Games
• Make Casino streamers to make sure their viewers are 18yo or above.
• Make Casino game streamers to publish their connection with casinos and their affiliate deals so viewers get realistic impression.
• Make Casino streamers to provide information of gambling addiction and provide information where to get help.
