Uncapped Subathon's potentially false advertising?
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 the stream has a definitive end, the donating member has been presumably mislead and is now not getting what they were intending to pay for?
I think it's a miniscule microscopic margin of people that would potentially be petty enough to bring this up, and I had difficulty finding actual legal support or information on this at all, but I would hope to avoid this for anyone and am curious what, if anything, could be done to better help content creators regarding this?

I find it impossible to stream and get viewers when you have partners that will go live for a uncapped subathon and sleep most of it or not even game or chat. This has to stop when streamers reach there max set up by twitch they should have a cool down period of 24 hours so they can sleep then get back on. or do it like truckers mandatory 8 hours off stream before they can stream again after the max time limit is set, if streamer isn't in the video then it should be shut off and terminated because it is a waste of resources having a streamer sleep while on stream and not in the video creating content https://www.twitch.tv/crowegamingg your one and only who does it all the time
