1. Killing real animals on stream

   Not sure if this should go under Community Guidelines or Safety.

   A streamer is killing animals on stream then showing bloody dead body.

   Shoots animal with arrow at 1 hour 44 minutes.

   Finds bloody dead body at 3 hours 24 minutes.

   The guidelines say "content with death or extreme injury" is prohibited.

2. Option to filter out Sexual Themes

   While I believe that creators should have some freedom to do what they want, I also believe viewers should have the freedom to exclude certain content from their searches on Twitch. As is right now, I cannot find a way to filter out streams marked with "Sexual Themes" through the search bar on Twitch. Simply searching the word "art" brings up any stream with the "art" tag, which could be a stream with the "Sexual Themes" CCL.

   In fact I just did this, the top 5 results included two streams of IRL streamers in barely any clothes, dancing in a sexual manner. These streams are both marked as "Sexual Themes". Whether or not you consider that to be art isn't the issue; viewers should have the ability to filter out any content they don't want to see from the start. This should be one of the first things people do when they create an account.

   (This mainly considers viewers who are 18+; there are some adults who would rather not see certain themes. I don't have a suggestion for viewers under 18, that's something your legal team needs to quickly work out.)

3. Ban streamers who show more skin then clothing

   I am tired of coming onto twitch an seeing so many female streamers posing half naked an making thousands from it. This is not a **** website. There are children who watch this daily giving away there money because they think they have some kind of connection with these woman when they just lie an manipulate there viewers for donations. For example writing there name across there breasts for a tier 3 subscription. Its a despicable act that you allow this on your platform. Also the way you treat your male creators vs. female creators is awful, have some pride in your job an not let you're **** to the thinking. Male streamers have been banned for removing there shirt in excitement from winning a tournament ,etc this is not equality. Also stop banning you're biggest income if you'll just unban them in a day, it shows how weak minded you are an how poor your team collaboration is between employees, which by the way all ex-twitch employees talk about how bad of a workplace it is.

4. Do more to combat streams that advertise phishing links

   The Oldschool Runescape section on twitch has rampant issues with phishing streams. The scammer downloads a vod of a popular streamer, creates a new account, and streams with titles such as "My Final OSRS stream", and instructs viewers to visit the runescape forum link below the stream to read about it. The link is a phishing page, obviously.

   They do some other scams sometimes as well, e.g. "Click the link below to activate your double xp buff", while restreaming a dev Q&A vod.

   I'm sure it's a problem in some other communities as well.

   The streams are extremely easy to find, they're new accounts with hundreds of viewers, no sub button, no followers, etc.

   Even if they get banned they just make a new account, so we need a different solution anyway.

   It's impossible to send warning messages to chat because the scammer sets chat to sub only; that shouldn't be possible for channels that don't even have a sub button.

   If the scammers couldn't use sub only, they would then use emote only, so maybe a new emote that says "SCAM" would be a good idea. It could even double as a great emote to spam when your favorite streamer starts doing sponsored gambling streams ;p

   A new streamer getting 100+ viewers should automatically be flagged as suspicious, and maybe have a dismissible warning overlay on the stream?

   On YouTube, sometimes clicking external links takes you to a page that says "Are you sure you want to leave YouTube?", a feature similar to that for non-affiliate, or suspicious-flagged channels is probably a good idea. "Are you sure you want to go to secure.oldschooI.us.leg1t-os-forums-real.lol?"

   It shouldn't be possible to create a link on text if the text is a url that doesn't match the url being linked to, e.g. https://www.twitch.tv/mystream shouldn't be allowed, but My channel is okay. People are probably less likely to double check a link if the link they're clicking already looks like a url.

   TL;DR please do... something

5. This a game streaming platform not a site for fan service.

   vr is blowing up and with vr streamers, lately alot of vr streamers have been slipping by some of the rules and its kind of concerning. if you watch most of the streamers youll notice that the content feels more like fan service rather than a reflection to the game and/or personality. i feel like the rules for vr in general should just be more strict since the creations of most of the creators has only been sex related if not blatantly sexual. please rework some of the gameplay guidelines so that vr has specified rules since it is somewhat still new.

7. How can we start a dialog about Twitch's inequitable treatment of female streamers?

   Twitch's changes to acceptable content this year explicitly created different rules for male and female streamers. Where can we start a dialog about what kind of message this sends to both women and those who objectify/dismiss female streamers?

8. Addressing Double Standards in Content Moderation

   I wanted to bring to your attention an ongoing concern within the community regarding what seems to be a double standard in content moderation, specifically the disparity between the treatment of IRL streamers—particularly in categories like hot tubs and pools—and VTubers.

   It’s frustrating to see that IRL streamers, often wearing revealing outfits like bikinis, are allowed to stream with minimal restrictions. Yet, VTubers, who use animated avatars, face stricter guidelines and even risk bans for things as minor as showing their hips—something that seems inconsistent, considering the much more lenient approach toward live-action content in similar categories.

   This discrepancy sends a conflicting message to creators on the platform and creates confusion about what is or isn’t allowed. Many in the VTuber community feel they are being unfairly targeted for content that is far less revealing than what is regularly broadcasted by some IRL streamers.

   While we understand the importance of maintaining Twitch as a safe and welcoming platform, we urge you to address this imbalance and provide clearer, more consistent guidelines across all content creators, regardless of whether they are using avatars or streaming in real life. We hope you will not continue with selective enforcement of the Terms of Service.

   Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. We look forward to seeing a fairer approach to moderation moving forward.

9. Feedback on the new TOS

   Dear Twitch Team,

   I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express deep concerns and respectfully request a reconsideration of the recent Terms of Service (TOS) update, specifically pertaining to sexual content, on the Twitch platform.

   While we acknowledge the necessity of maintaining a safe and inclusive environment for all users, the latest TOS adjustments appear to have inadvertently created a significant negative impact, especially among the younger audience. There is a growing prevalence of individuals disregarding the guidelines, promoting explicit content, including links to adult services like OnlyFans, and displaying graphic sexual imagery during live streams. This trend is in direct contradiction to the updated TOS, which explicitly prohibits such actions.
   The concern is not merely about adherence to the rules but rather the potential harm this shift is causing to the platform's overall atmosphere. The youth, in particular, are exposed to content that is inconsistent with Twitch's community standards, leading to an environment that is no longer conducive to their creative growth and enjoyment.
   Moreover, the proliferation of explicit artwork featuring genitalia has become increasingly visible, contributing to an uncomfortable and inappropriate atmosphere. This not only goes against the spirit of Twitch but also presents a challenge for parents and guardians who aim to ensure a safe online environment for their children.

   We understand the complexities of managing a diverse and expansive platform like Twitch, but we believe there is a pressing need to address these unintended consequences promptly. By reassessing and refining the recent sexual content TOS update, we can collectively work towards restoring the integrity of the Twitch community and fostering an environment that is both welcoming and secure for users of all ages.

   We appreciate your commitment to user feedback and hope that Twitch remains a space where creativity thrives while maintaining the safety and comfort of its users. Thank you for your time and consideration.
   At the end of the day our belowed Twitch is in it's core a gaming based platform and looking from far away the timeline of twitch makes me very concerned about what has this platform became.
   Sincerely,

   Anthony

10. If you like po*n, you will love Twitch.com

    With this latest TOS update, the only remaining difference between Twitch and Chaturbate is the fact that on the second you can masturbate on cam, which at this rate you will allow in a matter of months.
    A platform that fails to enforce its own rules is a failing platform, I honestly believe that within 2-3 years most serious streamers will have already moved to Kick or YouTube, because there will no longer be space on this platform for their content.
    Over time, Twitch will become a site intended for *********** and will remain only, as it already is now, among other things, a showcase for sponsoring your Onlyfans.
    In the space of 3 years you have gone from not being able to show your navel live, a rule that was actually too restrictive, to being able to show your naked breasts on cam, on a site NOT intended only for 18+ people (as some streamers say for fear of lose their money).
    The only thing keeping this platform going is the fact that it is part of Amazon.

11. Pepe the Frog is now recognized as a hate symbol

    I feel like having Pepe the Frog as a chat emote isn't so great now that it's an alt-right symbol, so if you're really averse to removing it, maybe send out a message to Twitch users explaining why it's there because I think to some people that could feel kind of partisan? Thanks

12. Banning words

    I've seen that Twitch has been banning of words like 'simp', 'incel', and 'virgin'. These are mostly terms used towards males, yet horrifically offensive terms like "bitch" , "pussy" , "cunt" which are used to belittle and demean Women are not? It is used to belittle and offend Men, and sometimes women and put them down, in the most horrific way and has been used for years as a sexist term to say that someone is less of a person or 'inferior because they are a women' so they call them either a "bitch" , a "pussy" or a "cunt". I see you have removed words to protect men, but attacking women and referencing their body parts as a mean to shame people shouldn't be acceptable. I feel these are worse terms than 'simp', 'incel', and 'virgin'. and IF you were going so far as to ban 3 words used to put down men....then the same should be done to protect Women.

13. Showing body parts(******, see through clothing that is revealing.

    Streamers have been getting away with little to no punishment for things that aren't even allowed on this platform when others (male and female) streamers have been punished more severely for less. We need to make it fair for everyone no one should get special treatment no matter how big their streams or who they are.

    Male, female, and all genders should be dealt with equally no one should violate guidelines and reveal naked body parts and get a slap on the wrist, some people can take that as ****** harassment.

14. chest covered policy

    why some men can stay at stream without shirt , and women are being punished for they cleavage and show the body, and men can go shirtless live no matter what kind of body shapes they have (yes, there are men who appear to have breasts)?

    can we have an equal policy for all ?

15. Overhaul Community Guidelines

    I know Twitch CEO went over this at Twitch-con San Diego 2019 with some good pluses towards this better chance. I have no idea when that will be implemented into today's Twitch Moderation, but hopefully sooner rather than later.

    But anyways, some things he did not mention was these ideas and should add-on or I would recommend a complete overhaul on the enforcement.

    • We should be able to see in our own dashboards of previous infractions that are on the account and not removed due to being expired or mistakened suspensions. We, as live streamers, or even users (non-live streamers) should have this access than we taking our own record keeping off the platform (which I still recommend especially when we are incorrectly suspended we'd be unable to view this data, at least with the current method of suspensions). Give examples and details on the community guidelines pages. Yes, I understand you want to make it easy to consume and appealing to read for the masses, but learn from other platforms with their community guidelines. Make videos even, pictures, and visual aids. They work.
    • On-stream violations, like actual violations, should suspend from streaming on their own channel only. Being a guest on another stream should be fine and not a death sentence to another streamer. The suspended streamer isn’t the #1 focus of the stream of course but still apart of the stream. I guess in some cases you/Twitch don’t want to associate with certain levels of suspended streamers and if that level is more extreme then yeah it’s understandable they shouldn’t be a guest on any streams on Twitch. But lower level should be fine. And your dashboard should show this level too for you, as the streamer know to not go onto any streams to be a guest as well.
    • Also you shouldn’t need to take their ability to be a viewer and contribute to the overall communities on twitch and their own. I think an on-stream infraction should be completely separate than off-stream infraction. Off-stream infractions like breaking community guidelines when interacting on Twitch’s platform then suspend their ability to chat i.e. global ban. You and I know, people will always make an alt account to evade suspensions to continue to being twitch user/viewer.
    • The intent thing with Twitch CEO mentioned should actually take place. CEO said if you didn’t have intent, you did not break community guidelines. And a lot of streamers granted did not read or just simply misinterpreted the community guidelines. As Twitch CEO said about safety / moderation is a global department and everyone has different in interpretations, same with live streamers, different interpretations. The suspensions should still exist for violations but it should not be indefinite based on no very clear intent. I’ve seen many live streamers banned because of misreading the context and misinterpretations from moderation. Let the live streamer give clearer context if needed than assuming as twitch moderation.

    I know Twitch CEO went over this at Twitch-con San Diego 2019 with some good pluses towards this better chance. I have no idea when that will be implemented into today's Twitch Moderation, but hopefully sooner rather than later.

16. Exclude currently live streamers from viewer counts on other channels

    We propose that accounts that are actively broadcasting on their own channel should not be counted as viewers on other Twitch streams they may have open at the same time.

    In other words, a streamer should still be able to open and follow other channels while they are live, for example to support friends or fellow creators, but their presence should not contribute to those channels’ concurrent viewer count.

    This would make viewer counts more representative of users who are actually watching a stream as viewers, while preventing so-called “lurking” between streamers who are currently live from artificially influencing audience metrics.

    The goal of this proposal is not to prevent streamers from supporting each other or visiting other channels, but simply to distinguish between someone who is actively watching a livestream and a broadcaster who is simultaneously running their own stream.

17. Block access to twitch api

    Someone created an app that allows him to see every channel’s followers without being a moderator. He can also track every Twitch user in real time, meaning he can see who a user is following instantly. He is using this app to harass me.

    He keeps following me everywhere, no matter if I change my username or not. Twitch’s API access should be restricted to Twitch staff only. When Twitch removed the ability for users to see who someone is following, that restriction should have applied to everyone, including third-party applications.

    Please restrict access to the Twitch API so that people outside of Twitch staff cannot create apps that expose information about other users that should remain private. This situation is personally affecting me, and I believe it violates Twitch’s Terms of Service and community guidelines.

18. TWITCH MODS THAT FOLLOW THEIR OWN GUIDELINES

    Please hear me out, I know that idea sounds crazy.
    There are many streams that outright break Twitch's so called "Community Guidelines", yet upon reporting and giving exact violations, absolutely nothing is ever done.

    Example:
    https://www.twitch.tv/forhim__tv

    ^Channel was already permabanned - https://www.twitch.tv/forhim_tv
    Reporting does nothing

    He shows lingerie with visible nipples.
    I give exact timestamps (like for current stream 6:41:32 &
    6:50:40)
    Reporting does nothing.

    That gooner streams are on Twitch at all is crazy, but that mods refuse to follow their own rules and are covering for these streams is outright disgusting given the fact that if you or I just say something slightly offensive we could get PERMANENTLY BANNED. But this guy is making money showing girls nipples without their consent. OK TWITCH.

19. Stricter Gambling Rules

    Stricter gambling rules. Make gambling accessible to users that have proven to be 18 or older. Make "gambling" category in twitch unaccessible to users that havent proven their age with valid ID. Streamers who gamble in different category receive temporary or permanent ban. Gambling has been raising concern over the years in Twitch. This ia an idea how to restrict under age users from watching gambling streams and how Twitch could strengthen their gambling rules.

20. Acceptable terms

    I would request a dialing back on the cracking down of supposed anti-Semitism via the use of the term Zionist/ism. Considering this is an ideology and not a wholesale description of all Jewish people, it seems fair game to allow. I understand the ADL has weighed in on this matter, but given that they seem incapable of acknowledging the ongoing genocide in Gaza I fail to see how they have an unbiased or constructive take on this matter. Almost the entirety of mainstream news sources have, what appears to me to be, a clear bias in favor of presenting Israel's actions as permissible. On Twitch there is (or was) actually a space for dissenting opinions that I thought was genuinely productive. Anti-Semitism, and for that matter any prejudice against a group of people, is unacceptable. Conflating anti-Semitism with calling out a settler colonial project in Israel is an overcorrection in my estimation. Thanks for reading.
