Queen Parlay (@ChellzDaboss) reported@waveswizdom @TwitchSupport @Twitch ****** watched the money spent on it, the quality, the growth in a short time and couldn’t stand it. I wanna email them my mf self
-
Ashni (@ashnichrist) reported@TwitchSupport This is not gonna work.
-
Phil (@trollied) reported@TwitchSupport Sadly this means bad actors can pay to view bot somebody else & give them issues. You need a different approach.
-
Joysulem - The Demon Lord VT (@Joysulem) reported@Scourg3y @Shocktrue @TwitchSupport If another streamer sends their bot army to raid or inflate your stream, there should be automatic protection so those fake views don’t count toward your analytics, discovery, or monetization. I don’t care about hurting other streamers’ feelings. If you’re using or allowing bots, you should be punished — not the innocent streamer getting zerged. Do the actual work. Protect real creators instead of just writing notes about it.
-
Caz ⛓️❤️🔥 (@CazSpella) reported@TwitchSupport So what you are saying: People that not only hit partner through clear viewbotting but also have been actively promoted on your frontpage whilst doing so will not suffer retroactive consequences. Victims of botting-attacks will be punished instead of releasing a lasting fix
-
Panda_VT🐼🔪 (@ThePandaperfect) reported@CovfefeChan @Twitch This looks fishy, and it smells fishy. I'm not a cat but still! @TwitchSupport help her out!! Why does she get punished for this??
-
ハナちゃん🌸Stop and smell the flowers. (@taisuke_hana_) reported@TwitchSupport How can he fix the Twitch mobile screen rotation bug?
-
TbaggingSince1990 (@TbagsTweeter) reported@TwitchSupport @Twitch You too @FF_XIV_EN fix everyones badges
-
HakureiRyan (@HakureiRyan) reported@Joysulem @TwitchSupport So the viewbot sends a GET to the proper API endpoint, viewbot reads the code, viewbot inputs the code. It's a one-time step the bot only has to perform once and then the bot has a "valid" account. All you've accomplished is viewbotting is slightly more expensive. Just think about it this way; X requires phone verification nowadays (yes you can sign up without one, but your account will get locked pretty rapidly), but like botting is still an issue.

MadameMommaCatt (@BigMommaCatt) reported@MrDoniedinosaur @TwitchSupport @TwitchSupport please fix this
-
Ashni (@ashnichrist) reported@joelcompiles @_Maral @TwitchSupport Thats fair there are definitely more difficult problems to solve for !
-
**** (@crashoverride) reported@stale2000 @TwitchSupport Yea, surely with their track record, and the statement of it being “challenging”, they have historical data of real viewership. 😬 If that’s the case, they owe a lot of money back to people they had no problem taking it from. Luckily for us we really only have to watch one streamer on that platform to tell if any change is being made (or if it’s pick and choose).
-
कपिल वर्मा (@kapilverma700) reported@pahadokila78317 @TwitchSupport help please
-
Maillo (@conky_natan) reported@TwitchSupport main-scenario-quest-chat Hey, I have a question. I just watched 60 minutes of the stream, but now on your official Twitch page it says nothing is live. I claimed the badge, but I don't have it yet — and it's not just me, a lot of people are having the same issue.
-
The Chaos Of Dragons (@Chaosmason) reportedHey @TwitchSupport people cannot view my stream atm. Is their a problem on your end?
-
6216 mf (@Terra6216z) reported@NuCaloric @TwitchSupport Will do, I’ll sign a 4 year and then never visit once purely to give you money. Let me unenroll all my children from college to help afford this endeavor.
-
Mist L (@LicavoliMist) reported from Mackenzie, Missouri.@TwitchSupport @Twitch fix this!!!! He was playing the game not the music!!!!
-
carlos levante martin (@er_dirtyyzanxee) reported@SuperWeegeeX @TwitchSupport not appear: - driver issue - outdated OBS - broken AMF install 3. On Twitch: Creator Dashboard → Settings → Stream Look for: “Enhanced Broadcasting” If it’s missing, Twitch has not enabled AV1 access for your account yet. There is no real way to force it manually. 4. Whe

-
XionsProphecy Label (@XionsProphecy) reportedHey @TwitchSupport exporting clips to youtube fails and trying to download the clip results in a broken XML page.
-
Dr Tintin (@theyomap) reported@kamyarm007 @TwitchSupport it's only bad for twitch if people talk about it. Twitch could fix this issue tomorrow if they wanted to by banning embedding.
-
Rob (@JustRobPlays) reported@TwitchSupport If the new system is “based on historical data” how does that work when 80% of Twitch’s top streamers have been accused of viewbotting or getting botted for years? This just rewards the biggest cheaters... Fix discovery/ranking instead. Also, fire Dan Clancy @TwitchSupport
-
🦇 Vampress Fangoria 🦇 「vtuber」 (@FangoriaVT) reported@TwitchSupport I've reached out twice but I keep getting the same reply. I know its not on my end. Please help? Can you see why my sessions arent available they show briefly and then vanish. It isn't my settings nor my browser. It's not blocked on my end at all. It's not my modem. I havent been able to use them for long time now. It used to work. Twitch username: vampressfangoria
-
Pagan Pegasus (@PaganPegasus) reportedNo this is actually crazy @TwitchSupport are you not gonna acknowledge that the UK/EU and apparently even some NA servers were NOT sending streams back to users yesterday? The servers were taking streams and saving VODs, but NO viewers could watch live in those regions?
-
PhillyDawgsRUs 😈🦅 (@itszairebitches) reported@waveswizdom @TwitchSupport @Twitch No this is crazy work. Banned for what ??? Hope they resolve this for you . Looking forward to the next stream

Wave 🌊 (@waveswizdom) reportedTwitch y’all good? @TwitchSupport @Twitch please explain this to me like I’m 5 years old. I’ve never committed Fraud in my life. I’ve abided by every rule you have set. I grew a vast following and made affiliate within two streams, due my social media following. Let’s get this issue resolved immediately please. This is ABSURD! Somebody gotta holla at me!
