How about a section that isn't about ideas and about direct feedback of experience(s) and or complaints. Before you say, " well if you are going to complain then provide a solution" .. that isn't my job as a user of twitch. I'm also trying to understand who uservoice is since twitch doesn't own uservoice? Here is my feedback and complaint ----> In short , in the last couple days, i went from seeing a single ad before watching the streamer to now, SIX ADS IN A ROW. What is that? It's also disturbing when the arrogant top tier streamers say, "SUB then you wont see the ads. It's one thing to get a single ad or even two before watching a streamer or mid roll but shoving down 6 ads NOW is ridiculous. This all happened ( for me ) in the last couple of days. Also, the arrogant comment by the streamer must understand subbing someone just doesn't happen and i know they are use to it with this youth just dumping subs but there is a reason you have a follow button right? Then sub button. If i had to sub the amount of people i follow on my list i would be able to make a 400 dollar car payment. Its just ridiculous. You cant tell me something didn't happen with now getting 6 ads before watching the streamer to how it was barely a couple days ago.

I understand you do not manage moderation, but consider this. If you don't, who can? That's like saying youre not held responsible for a workplace accident.

Today, I was timed out for using the words "foretard". It was Kitboga, and someone he was talking to was calling him ********. I could tell this by how deliberately he was saying it, as well as he spoke every other word correctly, fluently and phonetically. This was an insult to me, as I have brain damage, so i made a comment about it.

Scammer: "Yes get 4 tard"

me: "foretard? you mean 4head?"

timed out for one second

Quote by Oscar Wilde: “Everything in moderation, including moderation.”

think about it like this, twitch. LGTBQ communities says gay, lesbian, trans, bi, and whatever the Q is, im not going to say, but here I am with brain damage and I'm not allowed to say what's on my mind, even though I just watched someone get insulted using a term that applies to me.

You need to tell these mods and streamers what leniency is. Just because they don't like a word, doesnt mean no one should be allowed to say it.

Isnt that what the profanity filter is for?

Isnt that what discretion is all about?

How about my first amendment right?

Sure, you can ban someone for cussing out the streamer, but when you tell a brain damaged person he can't say "tard", even though i was called that repeatedly on xbox live pre-brain damage, is like removing their first amendment. I am who I am. I would go back to my old ways before my accident and never use the word, but it is neigh insulting to watch someone say it, the streamer not recognize this, but I do, and then I get timed out. Thats like grounding one kid until he's 18 and the other for a day for going to same party.

You see my point twitch? You need to take what's called a "chill pill", and be more observant of what people say, and not what you think they said.

I bid you adieu, farewell, live long and prosper, and stop violating my first amendment right (even though you banned the military from playing in E-sports for banning people talking about war crimes).

Am I making any sense here?

Remove the homepage video/stream playing.

Please add an option to not have a random video playing in the homepage when accessing twitch (the top carousel of 4-5 channels that automatically play when accessing twitch.tv). I shouldn't be forced to bookmark whatever subpage, and maybe I feel like just browsing the different games/categories. It's annoying to have random streams that I have nothing to do with and even profously dislike start playing when I access twitch.tv. It makes me not want to use twitch and it definitely makes me really not want to view / listen to the stream that's up there. There has never ever ever been one single stream of content that I actually enjoy or watch, add an individual option to not have that, please.

Dont talk to stangers who you meet on twitch. Dont Donate to anyone.

warning to all of the perils and danger of following streamers on twitch and am writing this as a concerned parent with the hope that no one else will get taken like we did.

My son in his early twentys is an avid gamer and spends most of free time playing COD (call of duty) online and is very naive and gullible and he has always had money management issues . His personality is that he has always been a very generous and giving person willing to help anyone . This whole nightmare started when he got steered and lured by other gamers online to this popular attractive female streamer who also plays COD online. Eventually after being invited to visit and chat with her on TWITCH they developed some type of a relationship online. Over the course of about 3 months my son had donated roughly over 40K via TWITCH and amazon gifts to this attractive streamer that he was enamored with. He essentially got cleaned out and is now so financially strapped that he cannot even pay his credit card payments nor make his truck payments. We had to step in and make these payments for him as he had essentially gave away all his money to this streamer. I was devastated and in shock when I started investigating on what happened to his finances. The money that was lost was meant for his future and a nest egg for a downpayment on a house for him.

Now I am mostly a non-judgmental person and.have no qualms on what a person does for a living but a good decent person with a soul would have stopped the donations once it reached a $1000 which in itself is a lot of money but to encourage the donations and gifts to keeping coming to the point where it exceeded over $40,000 is just insane, greedy and evil in my opinion. Now my son is lot to blame but he was so taken by this female streamer it was like he was enchanted or hypnotised by her. At the time he was in a rough spot and was down and depressed. She said all the right things to him that he wanted to hear and he basically does not have much social skills with girls.

Our entire family has been turned upside and traumatized by this entire situation and we all feel that my son had been manipulated and victimized. After we had found out and my son realized the gravity and graveness of him giving away all of his money he contacted this female streamer and asked if could get his money back or a least a part of it so that he would not be destitute. Not surprisingly her answer was a NO and retorted that there are no refunds as stipulated in Twitch.
I am now considering legal action as no one should be allowed to get away with this and destroying other peoples lives.

If you look at 99% of company support Twitter pages, all of them have their DM's open as a way to allow issues to be aired/resolved. Twitch falls under the 1% that doesn't have DM's open. I think (and pardon my french) this is an asinine decision that should be rectified ASAP. A lot of users are being banned out of the blue and twitch is radio silent, these people do this for a living and should have a way to ask what's going on - opening Twitter DM's for the support page would be an incredible and humongous step in that direction. Please, PLEASE consider doing this twitch, we want to love the platform but the decision making is sub-par at best.
