Surely you guys have seen what has recently happened with the "ASMR Category" with two big streamers. Now I will say good job on banning them. But I think those bans should uphold and remain permanent to further back up the message that states. "That type of content is not allowed on twitch"

It's too suggestive the line was pushed too far.

Unless you guys want to make an 18+ category or a whole new site altogether adhering to that. Either way some sort of enforcement needs to be put into place. With a CLEAR understanding of what is / isn't allowed

Olá.
Entendo que usuários diferentes precisam de durações de timeout diferentes, e durante uma transmissão movimentada é complicado ficar digitando nicks e durações diferentes de timeout.
Vou sugerir dois recursos

1 - Duração de timeout padrão
Tem dias que a duração de timeout padrão é muito e tem dias que é pouco; adicionar um recurso que permita ao usuário escolher o tempo padrão do timeout ao clicar com o mouse ajudaria demais os moderadores e principalmente o streamer que não tem moderadores.

2 - Recurso para configurar timeout gradativo ao clicar com o mouse
Seria interessante adicionar um recurso que permitisse ao usuário ativar a opção de timeout gradativo, que iria aumentando automaticamente a duração do timeout conforme o usuário fosse clicando para dar timeout.

Idea: Changes or the very least, more transparency on what constitutes as a ban from twitch in regards to breaking streamer guidelines. I also think it'd be fair as well if someone was banned unfairly, how they can have their repeal submission process proceed in an efficient and transparent manner as well.

Examples: Several esports players who have admitted to harassment, grooming, and assault on other community have their accounts still up and not banned (anti, cinnepie). Inversely, NairoMK who has new evidence from a lawsuit showing he was in fact a victim of **** has his account banned.

Resolution: Please reconsider how you go about banning people who've done terrible things by conducting a thorough investigation on suspect individuals (likely will have to be a case by case procedure not directed by algorithms), with transparency from twitch to the community members, and reevaluate how people who may have been unjustly banned, by being transparent in the repeal application.

Furthermore, twitch needs to be more consistent on who gets a ban vs who doesn't. Inconsistent enforcement policies from Twitch allows so many streamers who have a history of breaking the Terms of Service on their platform to continue to be able to profit off the misfortune or abuse of others.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Here's a catch of the Followers-Only mode that is bad: A spambot can follow anyone at any time and never talk anything. By the point someone turns on Followers-Only mode the bot has followed long enough to be allowed to taint the chat with spam.

And here's the solution:
Authy Badge: this would be a better "Verified Badge" than the Verified Badge, because it would confirm that the person activated 2FA, which typically involves having a phone, which typically means bots have a harder time verified themselves as a legitimate user and the Verified Badge is nothing more than "this Person is a partner, ya'll!" badge, doesn't even fit the term "verified".

Authenticated Users Only: As I said above: 2FA is a roadblock for bots. Whether it is a big roadblock or not, I don't know, but I'm pretty SURE it is better at that than whatever other spam control is currently in effect.

I would like to suggest that viewers be given the ability to ban themselves from channels/streamers/streams that they know are not good for their mental wellbeing, but which they cannot stop themselves from watching if it is available to them.

Similarly to how betting sites allow you to set limits on yourself, to help keep yourself in check, I would like to see users given the power to block themselves from a channel that they cannot resist typically, be it because they cannot control their financial actions, such as donations, or because they feel the channel or streamer in question provides negative feelings within the user.

This wouldn't affect, harm or punish the channel or streamer, as they would be completely unaware and wouldn't need to do anything in response, but for some viewers, such as myself, it would be a deterrent that could help improve themselves from some negative aspects of Twitch many other users don't consider.

The best thing would be a self-implemented user ban that would take 24-48 hours to undo, leaving the user with enough time to think over their action and whether or not they should undo their self-imposed ban. Alternatively, a simple permanent ban for those who feel this is the best solutions should also be made available, so users can control their exposure to streams that don't benefit them.

Just like you created the new Category, "Pools, Hot tubs, and Beaches" because of the excessive demand, you also NEED to create a "Troll Jail" for all viewers who abuse, harass, or 'troll' your Twitch Streamers!
The number of Trolls have become quite excessive, and simply 'banning' an abusive viewer from a single streamer, ONE, that banned viewer can still see and hear the streamer, TWO, that viewer can jump into another streamer, and continue his\her harassment!
You need to create an algorithm that bans that viewer COMPLETELY FROM TWITCH! Perhaps create, along with your current "banned flag", a count of how many times X viewer has been "flagged" (Ex, 3x, 5x, or 10x) and depending on the number of bans, the harassing viewer's Twitch account is frozen for:
"1 week" for 1st offense (flagged for banned 3x)
"1 month" for 2nd offense (flagged for banned 5x)
"6 months" for 3rd offense (flagged for banned 10x)
"PERMANENT" for 4th offense (flagged for banned 11x)
Obviously, Twitch would send said harassing viewer a notification of the number of bans he/she has accrued, with a warning to "stop harassing and abusing Twitch Streamer."

*I strongly recommend you implement this. I've visited many entertaining streamers, and the abusing and harassing trolls is becoming overwhelming, and I've personally witnessed several Twitch Streamers get mentally hurt or insulted by these types of 'imbeciles!'

Thank you for your consideration.

Since there is really no appeal system to the enforcement process for certain offenses it would seem only fair for there to be some sort of warning system in place for when the system detects an offense. An enforcement system with no warnings and no appeals seems contrary to the best interests of both streamers and Twitch. There is no system to detect infractions that is infallible, and in this case, when an error is made Twitch loses not only a streamer, but the revenue that streamer generated.
An offense that warrants a permanent ban should be taken seriously both by the community and by Twitch. A ban is a potentially life changing event for a streamer with real consequences that can be devastating both financially and psychologically and should be a final not a first step. Permanent banning should be a punishment reserved for the most egregious offences, especially since there is no way to appeal the decision. Permanent banning is supposed to be a deterrent to commiting offenses for the community but without transparency in the process it becomes arbitrary. Twitch should be working with the community to prevent the occurrences of bannable offenses, part of that is educating the community by providing guidance to streamers so they know what behaviors to avoid. It is counterproductive if the community is left to guess at when, how or what offense occurred when an account is banned.
My idea is that Twitch implement a dedicated Enforcement and Appeal branch. This would include some sort of oversight/audit to whatever system of detection is flagging infractions, measuring the accuracy of said system and a way to verify the offenses it flags. Develop fair and transparent protocols for dealing with infractions including requiring human interaction and verification of offenses before banning. Develop forms for keeping records of infractions, allow streamers access to their records. Make enforcement decisions available to public on request. Have a classification system for the severity of both offenses and punishments, determine recommendations for enforcement actions are appropriate to the severity of offense. Determine a system for appealing decisions, have dedicated team to research cases. Treat streamers with respect and fairness. Develop and maintain resources for the prevention of offenses. Maintain lists known malicious items/sites/content. Publish specific criteria used to classify stuff. Develop criteria and method for stuff to have a 'verified' classification.

Etc.

Thank you,

It has been a extense problem on the brazilian community since external moderators and automod system had been banning steamers that put themselves on situations that they couldn't control and aren't their fault.

For exemple purposes: Yulla had been banned indefinitely after someone discovered how to send images through donates and sent a NSFW image.

Conclusion: She had been banned on a situation that she couldn't control and isn't her fault that this happened.

Other brazilian streamers had been suffering the same issues, on different situations. And people concluded "they are being banned due to out of context scenes".

So the idea is to provide a better support to the communities streamers and their appeals. Providing a more accessible support to the streamers.
