  1. i keep coming across people on my feed under just chatting sexualizing the platform because of these new tags for sexual content. last i checked this website wasnt for soft core **** or any likes of that. with games and drawings im fine with but having irl people doing these things stretching the guidelines and seeing how far they can get with nudity is horrible. at least give us users the option to not view channels that have the tags on. yes we no longer see the stuff on the main page but the channel names and that like AMOURANTH…

  2. The following two sections of the Community Guidelines should be on the same page so streamers know when they must use the "Pools, Hot Tubs & Beaches" category:

    Section #1

    https://safety.twitch.tv/s/article/Community-Guidelines?language=en_US#22Attire

    "- Standard guidelines

    We don’t permit streamers to be fully or partially nude, including exposing genitals or buttocks. We do not permit the visible outline of genitals, even when covered. Broadcasting nude or partially nude minors is always prohibited, regardless of context.

    For those who present as women, we ask that you cover your nipples. We do not permit exposed underbust. Cleavage is unrestricted as long as these coverage…

  3. A lot of people are doing game corruption streams (playing games and making them glitch for fun) which is fun and entertaining but they're categorizing their games as, "Corruption," the game from 1988. Can you please add a game category called, "Game Corruption?"

  4. I am a verified adult user (29) who has already completed the official identity and age verification process with Twitch Support. Despite proving my legal age, I am still subjected to blanket "Age and/or Region" blocks that prevent me from accessing various streams based solely on my geographic location.

    I am writing to propose a shift from "platform guardianship" to "user autonomy." While I appreciate the intent to maintain a safe environment, imposing a total block on verified adults is a significant restriction on individual freedom. As a legally responsible adult, I should have the liberty to decide what content…

  5. With the update to the guidelines, users are now prevented from seeing content with safety tags on them. While this is a great step to make Twitch safer, it's not ideal for many of-age users and streamers. I propose that we could ensure viewers still receive appropriate recommendations by allowing them to consent to the tags they're comfortable with seeing on their Homepage when they're setting up their account and in settings so that they can also easily retract consent. It might also be helpful for the homepage itself to have these toggles. Tags are a wonderful way to ensure…

  6. Simple nudity is not sexual in nature in real life and in artwork. It's clearly not appropriate to classify know classics as sexual - even NSFW or Mature. Example: Michalangelo's "David", etc. Even Facebook stopped censoring such works. Content creators should submit things for review when there is uncertainty and simply.
    So labels Nudity, NSFW, and Classic Art should be added to the list. Sexual should remain a category if mature conduct or erogenous focus is the theme.

  7. The current content classification rules lists 6 words as example profanity, three as "extreme vulgar language" and three as "mild profanity". Two problems: 1) not every part of the world categorizes those six words the same (some consider "cnt" to be pretty mild, some consider "" to be extreme, for example), but 2) due to this subjectivity, any profanity not listed is automatically unclear as to which category it belongs under. If I call my friend a *****, is that extreme? Is "douchebag" mild? I obviously don't think making lists of what profanity is extreme or mild…

  9. My channel streams Poker Tournaments as a skill-based and educational activity, focusing on bankroll management, strategy, and responsible play. I always include clear disclaimers such as “NO to Gambling – this channel does not promote gambling websites or betting in any form.”

    Despite this, my channel is constantly flagged with the “Gambling” classification due to false reports from haters. This is unfair and harmful because:

    The forced “Gambling” label makes my streams unavailable in Italy and some EU countries, blocking my entire community.

    It misrepresents my content, which is educational and entertainment-based, not gambling promotion.

    Other Poker Tournament channels continue…

  12. A specific videogame (Final Fantasy XIV) as an extensive catalog of in-game music and has had a consistent issue with certain tracks being claimed.

    According to the following article by the developer:

    https://support.eu.square-enix.com/rule.php?id=5383&la=2&tag=authc

    that it is fair use to play the game with the soundtrack, in fact, they disencourage sharing the soundtrack on its own, or to play the game with other external music tracks.

    An example of such happening is the track "Rise" by Masayoshi Soken, part of the album 'Death Unto Dawn: FINAL FANTASY XIV Original Soundtrack', which is enumerated in the article linked. Could the content matching…

  14. Me parece una buena y mala idea al tiempo. Y el principal problema que se evita o en algunos casos resulta incómodo, son los contenidos de carácter sexual. Sin embargo, juego un videojuego de mucha violencia y no me favorece esta nueva actualización porque no permitiría crecer de manera apropiada dentro de la comunidad de twitch como streamer.
    Preferiría que esta nueva actualización las personas tengan la capacidad de seleccionar qué tipo de contenido quieren bloquear de su perfil. Haciendo varias etiquetas y así evitando que por querer evitar ver contenido sexual terminan dejando a un lado juegos como Dead…

  16. Twitch recently introduced the ‘content classified’ categories.
    I am talking about sexual education, no nudity, and I have been classified as “sexual themes”.
    It is a nightmare for me as hot tub girls are also classified as “sexual themes”
    Viewers come to my stream asking me when I will get more naked. They also tell me I shouldn’t say “sexual themes” as I am not doing hot tub.
    I understand we need to protect children but please we need to add “sexual education” classified content.
    I cannot stream with this category

  17. The new labels are redundant and invasive. you already have to click yes that you'd like to view mature content. why is it needed to click through another warning? why cannot the content labels just be displayed rather than a click through. I suggest this because my content is already labeled 18+ all the content warnings are included in 18+. so stop requiring the content warnings as click through and add it as a visual label on top of the mature content click through.

    you're just creating another barrier for viewers to actually reach out streams.

  18. For now, content labels are based on the ESRB. However, I believe that standards should be set against the countries and languages of the streams.

    For example, there are cases of violence in ESRB but not in CERO. In addition, the content is sometimes modified depending on the country in which it is released, so it is not appropriate to apply uniform standards.

    現在のところコンテンツラベルは ESRB が基準になっている。しかし, 基準は配信者の国や言語に照らし合わせて決められるべきだと思う。たとえば ESRB ではバイオレンスであっても, CERO では特に問題にならないケースがある。また, 発売されている国によって内容が修正されていることもあるので, 一律な基準の適用はふさわしくない。

  19. Having content warnings is absolutely ridiculous for anyone who is over 18. Don't treat your users who are adults like children. We don't need to be warned that the people we sub to swear in their streams.
