    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…

    It's always the top irl streamers causing problems for everybody else by violating TOS and trying to waive it away by pinning the blame on each other.

    You call someone out and 9/10 times their first response is "Why me? It was (insert other p.o.s. streamer) who started it!" When we don't give a rats over who started the trend. The rest of them say things like "It's not against TOS you moron" when as a matter of fact it 100% does, outright lying as long as it means there's even the slightest chance it pushes the blame elsewhere.

    Get a grip, face reality (an ironic remark, I know) and face the consequences of your actions like an adult.
