  • HitmanSin HitmanSin (@HitmanSin) reported

    @Twitch why do you hate me? All i try to do is have the same love as others on this platform and make conversations with people, which would help me improve my public speaking and open up to those that asks me questions.

  • PerihGaming 🏳️‍🌈EN/VStreamer | Perih the Platypus (@PerihGaming) reported

    @horatius1214 then get discouraged when it's "not working" even though they're streaming. It's more than -just- booting up Twitch if you're serious. But if you're in it for the hobby & just hanging out with friends, by all means!

  • FernleafFlynn flynn 🌿 (@FernleafFlynn) reported

    @TrueHoax I’ve not had a chance to do much research myself, but I believe there are some moderator tools that some people have developed to help solve for this and it’s something that Twitch could implement. I may be misspeaking though.

  • AudibleSilent Ravi (@AudibleSilent) reported

    Never thought there would come a day when I would have to have a "Nuke It" command ready to go for my strram. Twitch, your community has developed and deployed tools to mitigate this, but only you can fix it. For a 50% revenue share, we'd expect at least that much #TwitchDoBetter

  • Meshiah1234 Meshiah~╰(*°▽°*)╯ (@Meshiah1234) reported

    @ranaltboo This finna crash my twitch again 💀

  • Freezhie frogzhie (@Freezhie) reported

    When we ban a user it should be an immediate block. People have been asking for this before marginalized creators were being attacked but if we have to do all the work to protect ourselves it's the least @TwitchSupport can do to make it easier to address this

  • FernleafFlynn flynn 🌿 (@FernleafFlynn) reported

    @TrueHoax I think it’s to get Twitch’s attention to address the problem in a more serious/timely manner and provide more protection for creators from these types of hate-raid bots.

  • 0HotWaterBottle HotWaterBottle (@0HotWaterBottle) reported

    @Sm1TookMyNameGr @DatedWizard @BikiniBodhi No, cause it doesn’t have sideways kick and is actually easily controllable. I’m literally the worst and I can laser with Twitch but Jager, R4C, Zof are all dogshit now.

  • meandthegameYT meandthegame (@meandthegameYT) reported

    @Twitch fix the hate raids. Why would I want to build a brand on a platform that doesn't take the simplest steps to protect its creators!? That is all. ~Joseph

  • Meta4Rick Rick (@Meta4Rick) reported

    take note. I've seen people scared to stream as a result of all this. Don't be. The hate raids are terrible. Their goal is to chase you away. To make you afraid Stand and face it. Don't let them win. Twitch won't protect you. Gather your resolve and lead from the front. (3/4)

  • KindOfRhythmic Rhythm (@KindOfRhythmic) reported

    @TwitchSupport Twitch isn't letting me log in using stream labs because of 2fa, it keeps saying its sending me a code, (it's not) and it wont even let me turn 2fa off without the same code issue. Pls Elp

  • JSimsssss 💔Broke Up With TS4 & Went Back To TS3💔 (@JSimsssss) reported

    @Twitch get it together baby, because this IS NOT okay. If you care about your platform, you'd address the problem at hand & handle it expeditiously. ❗

  • TheeLocSpiegel LocSpiegel (@TheeLocSpiegel) reported

    With twitch under fire time to get to work on YouTube streaming and content just don’t know how to go about it

  • cajun_ice Rusty 🍩 (@cajun_ice) reported

    Cenk Uygur’s nephew wonders why people have a problem with him saying “eat the rich” on Twitch while living in a $3 million dollar mansion in a city that has a huge homeless problem

  • modest_mishmash Modest_Mishmash (@modest_mishmash) reported

    @penehoffttv @xerjester @Twitch If you're connecting to Twitch chat using IRC then don't ban the IP addresses connected to the accounts! Twitch is not forwarding actual user IP addresses so what you are seeing are in fact Twitch CDN servers.

  • xAutumnGames Autumn (@xAutumnGames) reported

    @ManCondori I looked it up, and it seems many twitch users are having this issue, where they do not show up in search.. ><‘ Will have a look at it later. Hopefully I’ll show up before Monday.

  • PerpetualNoob3 Perpetual Noob (@PerpetualNoob3) reported

    Hello @Twitch/@TwitchSupport. Fix your ****. Stop the capability for mass account creation, start IP banning, stop work on anything else. Stop these hate raids. These ******** are doxxing people. They've been attacking your creators for years. You've had years to fix this.

  • MegabyteMegan ❤ Megan Thee Megabyte ❤ (@MegabyteMegan) reported

    "You're letting the trolls win by leaving Twitch" No streaming on Twitch is unsafe and no one should have to be constantly hit with hate raids and bots. Twitch is staying silent on the issue so why should creators stay on the platform

  • punziscool Aster🐝 (@punziscool) reported

    @Heyitszoelol nooooo D: i would gift u one but twitch took all my money by automatically renewing my subs for 2 months so now i am a little broke bc i didnt know it did that HELP LMAO

  • GoodbyeSpoons Sailor Spoons (@GoodbyeSpoons) reported

    @Twitch How many POC helped with updating you on hate words?? Cause that’s the problem, y’all have yt ppl telling you what to ban and they can’t even imagine the tip of things ppl say and do to get around your TYPICAL hate words…so how many POC?!

  • Straythere Stray (@Straythere) reported

    @Twitch Unban @Toxicidi and help this creator out. Stop counting your ******* money for two seconds and do your job.

  • sinksanksockie ✨ Ru / Sockie ✨ (@sinksanksockie) reported

    Hey Twitch fam! I'm sorry for the late notice but I'm having some major technical issues since downloading some new software! Hopefully I can get it sorted out in a timely manner but if not, I'll be rescheduling my stream to tomorrow morning instead! Keep you posted! <3

  • Vagabond_Rigby Rigby, the Vagabond (@Vagabond_Rigby) reported

    Like if I didn't work for a living and instead posted YouTube videos or played video games on twitch I would also get super defensive about this stuff, but how do they not understand why this **** pisses off their poor audiences? Are they intentionally trying not to understand?

  • Mikem1288 Mike McCarthy (@Mikem1288) reported

    @cassiewhtsrname The problem is everyone can stay off Twitch for a whole week, month, a year, decade it still won't matter because as long as twitch has no competition they don't have a reason to change business as usual and with Amazon backing them its going to stay that way unfortunately

  • TehNoobyGaming TehNoobyGaming (@TehNoobyGaming) reported

    Sorry about the lack of streams this last month, as always I miss streaming for you all. With the current situation on Twitch + busy work schedule, I might take a little longer to get back on but I can’t wait to go live once again soon 💖

  • sleepyyjess jess (@sleepyyjess) reported

    Twitch needs to fix up and start listening to their community

  • Freezhie frogzhie (@Freezhie) reported

    There are bots that can force raids to their channel and bots that drop your full government name as a raid message. Twitch hasn't even done the bare minimum to fix any of it. Not. One. Change. Since it started. #TwitchDoBetter

  • MajorLinux Marcus "MajorLinux" Summers (@MajorLinux) reported

    I don't want to call this a coincidence, but since this Twitch stuff has been going on, my servers have been seeing an increase in attempted break-ins. Almost as if someone has been real desperate to get a hold of random servers on the internet...for some reason...

  • CelticTigerLoL Tadhg Brennan 🏳️‍🌈 (@CelticTigerLoL) reported

    I haven't said much as I've not been streaming with work, life, etc. but this hate raid issue on twitch is horrific and I hope to see #TwitchDoBetter. Gaming culture is full of hateful people that spread due to companies and platforms taking "neutral" (lazy) stances like this.

  • mewT__T (@mewT__T) reported

    my twitch finally works again aaaahh it didnt work at all for u/d gulf before 😩💔
