Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.
We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself. Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.
We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.
That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice…

No one 'draws an audience' from their tags alone. Yes I as a viewer can find someone based on tags, but its not like I'm stuck there and have to watch because they had the tag. Categories, tags, and any other search method is a way for a viewer to parse the numbers down but there is -always- irrelevant results. In those cases the search continues.
If I search for a tag wanting to find creators making that content AND I find a streamer AND I like their content only then do I stay. That is the way an audience is built.

Disagree: There are already piles of teams that do very little in the way of community building. Getting to affiliate requires stats that indicate a streamer is just getting into Twitch streaming and has done only minor networking. Partner status, though terribly subjective in its opaque application approval at least has stats requirements that show a deeper willingness to 'play the game' and network with viewers, streamers, and build communities.

Agreed.. and its gotten worse since the posting of this comment. Yesterday was one of the big streamers doing nothing but focusing the camera on her licking 2 microphones with ASMR sound levels.

Hi, I know that this is a very late response, but we’re hoping to find time to address this issue later this year. There are a few steps we’ll have to take to solve this problem in a way that will work for all streamers, but we understand the severity of the issue.

I was happy tosee this suggestion.. untill seeing it was from 2017. Well.. I made the same general suggestion to Twitch today over Twitter.. For 1 banning the bots and hate raiders should keep them off of the channel all together.
Ideally remove it from being seen at all.. but short of that at LEAST keep them from refollowing and retriggering follow notifications with that.
They already have a system that auto moderates for bad language of various sort. They claim it has components of AI that track variants for abusive language. We've seen as mods how these things do catch strays quite often, sometimes hilariously but who knows how often its blocking things that we never even see. There is the 1 level of automod where it flags things for all mods to see but also the harder version that wont even let the person enter the information into the chat at all.
It cant be JUST blocking my name and address from my chat as that is a an end around confirmation of the data. They could however block that data AND everything else that looks like an address, an extensive list of names that happens to include the real one and response with a message something akin to 'it appears you are posting ID information. We block all detected ID information not just that of the streamer'. That way lending some additional obscurement. Also someone that repeatedly triggers this should be auto-flagged and incapable of interacting further.
This cant be limited to just the stream either. Often times people will be stalking others and troll them in outside chats, so a general filter site wide is needed.
