    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…

    Please enforce your rules and TOS evenly and daily twitch. I understand on bigger streamers there is a hesitation but they should not be a exemption because of size. People are making an already flooded marketplace more difficult to get discovered in and they are misusing the vtuber tag entirely for their own self-serving benefit and it needs to stop and if they are already knowingly breaking your rules they won’t care about our complaints. All we ask is that you enforce your own rules against people who don’t care to break them for attention and monetary gain. Thank you for your time
