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 to the community. When I was looking through some of the streams a streamer called "Kaellyn" had their butt covering half the screen which I would assume is against TOS but nowadays it's hard to tell. Although the whole stream isn't just that it was obvious that she did to satisfy her chat. Another example is the popular streamer "Amouranth" who lets their viewers donate money to get their name written on many things the most common one being floaty. Just tuning into the chat for a few minutes I saw many twitch users send very questionable things such as "Show feet Kreygasm" "Show your booty" "Change bikini" and many more things. Constantly messages were being deleted by mods because they were either offensive or very ***. Another issue is the fact that it's clear that these streams are *** but the streamers don't even care to put the stream to mature just to get more people. This means that many kids can easily just go onto these streams and see big booba's. It's clear that this issue has gotten out of hand and that it needs to be stopped. My final thoughts are that although this stuff is "content" I don't think it's healthy or fair to the community and streamers to continue letting these streams go on. I think streamers should be able to be creative with their content as well. Hopefully twitch will something about this. Thank you for reading.

    Credo che attualmente sia la soluzione migliore che io abbia sentito.

    Trovo vergognoso vedere nella medesima categoria "Just chatting" sia streamer che stanno effettivamente chiacchierando con il pubblico che streamer intente ad esibire il proprio corpo in piscinette, piegate in pose inequivocabili o intente a mercificare una parte di corpo con una scritta in cambio di una donazione.

    Non ho nulla contro di loro o nei confronti di chi le guarda, ma la convivenza di uno spettacolo palesemente "hot" nella medesima etichetta di chi cerca uno streamer con cui parlare di un fatto di cronaca mi pare inadeguata tanto quanto inserire un canale pornografico in mezzo ai canali dei cartoni animati sulla TV a pagamento di turno: legittimo, basta non guardare, ma sicuramente inadeguato.

    A mio avviso, basta "obbligare" chi è su questa piattaforma per esibire il proprio corpo a farlo in un'apposita categoria e tutti saranno contenti: chi vuole far just chatting lo farà in un ambiente consono e chi invece vuole spogliarsi lo farà nella sezione più indicata.

    Easy win per tutti.

    Recently I've been seeing a lot of "Hot Tub Streamers" in the Twitch Community. I started watching Twitch when I was a minor and joined Twitch to watch video game content. The idea of women performing on a platform, such as twitch, which was designed for gamers. To show of their more than half naked bodies and manipulate children in the Twitch community is absolutely disgusting. These ladies know that this platform is a better option than OnlyFans and they profit big time off of it. I am absolutely disgusted that my nephew (who is 11 years old) uses Twitch to watch content he enjoys, and he can stumble apun those streams. Sexualizing his mind at such a young age... What about people that have violent ****** tendencies and they play video games as a release and to get their mind away from those triggers? This is disgusting Twitch... If this is not fixed/sorted out I have absolutely no problem with going to the press about this.

    I agree with you. It's just tiring to report every time.

    Howdy,
    I just do not understand how can I get into "Suggested" channels "Hot tub" female streamers all the time..
    They do not belong to Twitch.. they do not provide any gaming or even "Just chatting" content.
    They belong to "soft erotic" pages... when I want to watch nice girls I go to different pages, I do not want to see them on Twitch.
    The fact that Twitch itself tolerates them, but bans people for getting someone annoying use "n" word or something that on "talked donation" is just bucked up.
    When you can not block them (you could.. but you get money thanks to them so yeah.. money grubbing is ok nowaday if it is not against blm or lgbt or whatever), let us filter them...
    I reported - ignored several of them.. and every time I log into Twitch.. I get new ones.
    They do not belong to "just chatting", writing "subs" or "donators" names on their t*ts is not chatting, create their own category.. "stealing from ***** guys" or something..

    I’m a young man. When I get off work, I want to relax in a stream and just chat. I like streams where people run smoking lounges. I think they’re fun. What I don’t like is having to become titillated just to get there. You cannot block enough e-girls. There’s always new ones appearing at the top of just chatting. But they are not just chatting. They are jerking off. Put e-girls where they belong (in their own category) or I take my money to other platforms. I spend money too ya know. It’s not just the masterbaters spending money. I’m actually trying to help your business. If you feel you need to push e-girls on everyone because it works for you, well, maybe twitch isn’t the sit for decent young men after all. It’s just another cam girl site serving the chronic masterbaters.

    i have reported over 30 streamers for violating twitches guide lines and no global mod or staff has taken care of it we need more global mods to monitor twitch streams for example these streams of girls in hot tubs is not appropriate for twitch especially when we have kids on this platform as young as 13.

    Or another idea would be to make it so streamers have to actually make content cause sitting in a hot tub half naked is not content.

    and the last option is to ban swim suits on twitch so these female hot tub streamers cannot get away with this stuff.

    I totally agree. These videos have nothing to do with the platform. They should be on soft porn sites and not here. As an art director, I talked to many clients we wanted to bring to the platform, and they were totally against it because of the erotic content. I have been observing and waiting myself, I am a professional painter, and the sexy girls are the only reason I am hesitant to start streaming life painting. The chicks are always on the main page; this is very awkward. On top of that, you have so many young gamer users. I really hope you will find a better solution. Maybe you could create a page only for professional content for personal brands, artists and businesses.

    Please stop supporting and/or allowing companies and/or individuals to stream obvious s$$$$$ feeds that can't even be categorized as content. It is shameful and inappropriate and can be accessed by anyone; all of these channels are purely soft p$$$$ related and should have their own platform, definitely not on twitch.

    I am refusing to renew ALL subscriptions until something is done about e-thots treating twitch like it's Chaturbate.
