Discorrdia VT 🍨🐈 (@Discorrdia) reportedHavent been able to stream for a couple weeks now and twitch support isnt replying to the email I sent. No, I did not get banned or suspended. I waited two weeks with no reply before sending another. Kinda sucks ngl. @TwitchSupport Help a girl out! 😭 Miss vibing with my chat

Conductor Savy 🚂🐐🔞 (@ConductorSavy) reported@HermesVtuber @TwitchSupport No, you skipped over the whole concern and inserted a question I never asked. I wasn’t asking what will happen, I was asking what the creator can do when there is no way for the, to prove it wasn’t them. There is no way a creator can prove it isn’t them doing the viewbotting. If someone in their community or a malicious user view bots them, it hurts the creator when the creator did nothing to warrant the enforcement. It doesn’t help the creator be able to prove it wasn’t them because the traffic still went to their channel. The way this is worded is the creator is ****** either way regardless of the source of the viewbotting, and this is what has me worried when it’s someone out of their control especially. It will hurt creators, because the viewbots can and have been weaponized in the past to hurt channels.

Tothmonra (@tothmonra) reported@eiyawow @TwitchSupport Its not about being entitle but about having to work for something an having earned it. Its called putting in the effort. Its not that hard to hit affiliate doing this pretty much is a kick to the teeth of those who did put in effort means guess what means nothing.

KisaiTenshi🎀👼🐱 (@KisaiTenshi) reported@Joysulem @TwitchSupport Doesn't work because you can buy phone numbers from VoIP services. The only reliable way to prevent viewbotting is to make the entire site require the authenticator even to register as a viewer.
-
Asetepepo (@asetepepo) reported@TwitchSupport Thank you for making fighting and working hard to get Affiliate meaningless, instead of getting rid of the awful tier 2-3 sub that only gives you 1 extra emote, update the settings in twitch alerts so tasks and alerts work properly, we get a slap in the face, thanks

Ur Fave Libra ♡✨ (@BigDawggNik__) reportedI’m going to assume the people who work for @Twitch @TwitchSupport are people who don’t fully understand English. I’ve been explaining my issue for over 24 hours and they still don’t freaking understand. Why the hell is the only mode of contact email? I’m so damn annoyed
-
bossm60 (@bossm60) reported@TwitchSupport My twitch account, bossm60, has been indefinitely suspended since Sept 21, 2024, with no stated reason. Appeals/support ticket have gone nowhere, and I have a single reinstatement request but I can't use it without knowing the reason for my ban. Can you help?

Riri Rawra 🐯🌿 | VCandy 🍭 |DoKomi 2026 (@RiriRawra) reported@TwitchSupport Casual L twitch the affiliate requirements were already far too low now there’s not even a point anymore besides being able to earn money rather then having just a twitch balance how about you guys fix the actual problems first such as a VIEWER COUNT which would also help people reach affiliate easier because you guys then don’t **** on lurkers

mosama (@MOsama86586) reported@TwitchSupport now fix the watch streak notifications
-
The Savage Psycho - KILLBRXXD (@KILLBRXXD) reported@TwitchSupport Essentially, this just really killed the hard work that the affiliates have put in before this and just made that time wasted.

👑Conqueror of Digital Cities👑 - /\/\/-\ Lawless (@TimeWith99961) reported@Twitch @TwitchSupport This Fits you SO WELL! Free to JOIN, just give us all your Information! Zero Experience Needed = We know how to steal your Money, Just Fine. Help Support = ZERO ... We Choose Who WE BAN!! GREAT BUSINESS MODEL!!! @JeffBezos Dude Seriously, Can I be CEO?
-
Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported@Amuoralzg @TwitchSupport If you grinded affiliate fairly back in the day you would feel the same way. 90% of ppl view bot to get where they are and those who don't take offense to this. They have only taken things away from affiliates so far giving nothing back. Still not fixing bot problems either.

Nathan (@x777defiance) reportedIt has been 1 year since I got suspended on @Twitch. Got Prime botted for about a week or more, and they indefinitely suspended me for that. I didn’t contact @TwitchSupport during that time since I was naive and thought my channel was actually growing since I had real chatters and viewers while playing, but turns out that could have been fake too when everyone seemed real. I explained it to them multiple times how I believe I was targeted for this since I know some people who don’t like me personally, but they don’t listen to my appeal and I just get a bot response. I’ve appealed 3 times now, but they don’t seem to care. I’ve grown as a creator on YouTube and now I want to be able to stream again on Twitch since I miss it… but it looks like that won’t ever happen again due to Twitch support not giving me another chance or even listening to my appeal. If anyone knows how to get their attention directly, please help me with that or tag them because I really miss streaming to the viewers that I had and interacting with them. 😭 #twitch @djclancy999

CeruleDraconis | Water Dragon (💧🐉) (@CeruleDraconis) reported@TwitchSupport an additional thought i wish to add on is with the requirements to reach affiliate being to; -reach 25 followers -stream for 4 hours -stream on for different days -reach an avarage of 3 viewers on 4 different days i feel as though it was a very possible goal that was by no means impossible and helped build up good streaming habits that help promote a creator to grow🫤

XBXR🇨🇦 (@xboxer214) reported@Alex_zedra @TwitchSupport Tbh twitch has bigger issues than giving anyone the ability to make money on the platform.

Conductor Savy 🚂🐐🔞 (@ConductorSavy) reported@LushenAZN @TwitchSupport You're missing the point here dude. What you're suggesting sounds good on paper, but the reality is it won't work and will hurt the creators regardless. If you think they can simply go and sue every current viewbot service into oblivion, you're out of your mind because it's likely they can't reach some of them due to them being based in another country. Would it be nice for them to do that? Hell yeah, taking down a viewbot service will greatly help... if only another didn't pop up in its place a few hours later doing the same exact thing. And again, the issue here is how the creators are being affected. Regardless if it was the creator, someone in their community, or a malicious user out of their community, because the traffic of the viewbots went to their channel they will be punished whether they wanted it or not. Say I piss someone off because of a comment I made. That person then sends viewbots at my channel, and twitch enforces on it. That hurts me, and I have no way to prove I didn't order the bots myself. I have no clue which service was used with the viewbots because the accounts involved with the viewbotting raid won't say the service they're from and the service is likely using VPNs to mask the bot's actual IP address. Say someone in my community decides they want to help boost my CCV. Instead of legitimately getting friends and family to watch as well, they purchase from one of these viewbot services instead. That will hurt me when Twitch does enforcement on my channel because of the traffic. I didn't buy them, but just like the above I'm harmed because of it and have no way to prove it wasn't me. Using either of the above examples, it's going to hurt me because then I can't benefit from my actual CCV of real people there because the botters forced an enforcement that forces my CCV lower than it should be depending on how big the bot waves are. So tell me how slicing off the head of the hydra will help me when two more heads replace the one that was taken off. You know how much money and time Twitch will then have to invest into finding these services to get rid of? It's likely more than the resources they have available, and they'll likely put those resources towards ****** AI moderation that'll go hard on creators regardless of the source of the viewbots that target their channels, harming them more instead of fixing the problem with authentic viewers. At this point I'd rather a captcha service of some sort be done basically serving as a "Are you still there?" type of deal that shows up in different forms that the legitimate users can solve but takes the AIs of the bots much longer to do and figure out.

Sillyam Contreras Enjoyer (@Brewrers) reported@Seth_3773 @Twitch @TwitchSupport Also, forgot, you can stream basically anything safe-for-work. you don’t have to stream video games

KRISTYNxROSE 🥀 | The Crypt (@KristynxRose) reported@TwitchSupport Fixing the discoverability issues on Twitch would fix some of these issues. Not all of them, but it would make a huge difference. People wouldn’t feel so desperate to be “discovered”.
-
J3xRG (call me j3) (@j3xrg) reported@tmntpizzapower @Twitch @TwitchSupport problem was they simply just weren't finding companies who bought in. So when we were able to do it, it was like..... monster every ad, then it'd go dark for months bc no companies picked it up. I'm definitely with you on the core of it, but it'd have to actually work.

𝕴𝖉𝖗𝖎𝖑 𝕾𝖚𝖘𝖚𝖗𝖗𝖆 𝕬𝖑𝖇𝖆 (C.O) (@Idril_Susurra) reported@TwitchSupport Hello, I'm having trouble accessing my account because someone has stolen my Twitch account. They've changed the email address to a Gmail address ending in .uk. I'm Spanish. My account is linked to my mobile phone, but I can't verify my account because the hacker changed my email. What can I do in this situation?

Therealstevethebeast150 (@Therealsteveth1) reportedHonestly, this is ******* ridiculous. That twitches website ain’t working since last night. Can you please fix your platform? @Twitch @TwitchSupport

izidore (@izidoreX) reportedDear @twitchsupport, I previously submitted an appeal through the Twitch appeals portal regarding the 30-day suspension issued to my account "izidore" for “Sharing Private Information,” but I have not yet received a response. After reviewing the policy, I believe this enforcement may have been made in error, as I did not share any viewer’s private information. If a specific clip or message was flagged, I respectfully request a manual review of the content and surrounding context. I take viewer privacy seriously and would greatly appreciate another look at the evidence associated with this suspension. Thank you for your time. @MikeMinton @djclancy999

keyzking01 (@keyzking01) reported@TwitchSupport i need help please im not receiving confirmation code i was trying to on 2fa but im not receiving message on my phone

Cthulu_VT (@CthuluVt) reported@TwitchSupport This is immediately going to get exploited by people trying to harm creators/streamers and is a terrible idea
-
GamerLFG (@GamerLFG) reported@MantaVT @TwitchSupport How does this work? I'm sure I have been view botted against my will once before.
-
ToastFPS (@ToastFPS) reported@Crisendo @TwitchSupport “Most people are going to RELATE a higher viewership with a higher tier of content”. If you needed to read that again, and it’s usually true is most cases. Any 1000 viewer stream is usually going to be higher quality than any 2 viewer stream. Budget, experience, production are all -USUALLY- higher. There is no discoverability on twitch outside of viewership. There never has been. Thats likely never going to change.

BeeDub (@BeeDub12) reported@Scyllaquinn @TwitchSupport @eepykateykat Affiliate needs 3 viewers, if it took you 7 months to get it then that's a severe skill issue.

Czarmusicva (@Zartunze15) reported@TwitchSupport @eeriebpm was supposed be on the front page today and she is not can you please fix it so she is on the front page today before she ends stream
-
KRISTYNxROSE 🥀 | The Crypt (@KristynxRose) reportedI feel like of Twitch took the time to fix their discoverability they would have a lot less issues with viewbotting and streamers “cheating” the system. But all they do is take away discoverability tools and make things worse… I will say this again @twitch @TwitchSupport…. When everyone grows on the platform can grow…. Everyone wins… including Twitch! Don’t you want ALL your streamers growing to help keep the platform financially afloat?? Discoverability should be based on viewer interests and not number of views. People wouldn’t viewbot as much if discoverability wasn’t ZERO. This should be your main focus right now to keep our platform alive.

🐇 PenniLopi | Post-Apocalyptic Dragon Vtuber 🐉 (@PenniLopi) reported@EmFNJenkins @TwitchSupport WHAT?!?!?! They better rectify this issue immediately. What in the actual ****?! How does this not ping you?
