  @crashoverride @TwitchSupport Yeah advertisers and sponsors are waking up, they just invest less and/or focus on conversion, can’t fake that. The numbers are less important and they’ll move on to other formats than live streams. There is no one expert as it’s all looking for smoke signals and trying to draw educated guesses. Some put bigger efforts and time into it and may find a little more. Just look at general detective work and “official” investigations and public opinion/investigations. If ask me, these platforms “combatting” this are just giving lip service as reassurance to rebuild/keep confidence. Kick did it recently and now Twitch, it’s not a coincidence.

  @TwitchSupport it's a cat and mouse game, every time twitch updates their detection algorithms the viewbotting companies adapt not sure if penalties alone will solve the issue

  @TwitchSupport @TwitchSupport My appeal portal is BROKEN. I have a temporary password for Case #10154148, but it says "Not eligible" and the button is locked. ​I need a HUMAN agent to fix this technical bug manually. Please look at my emails with the screenshots! #Twitch

  @TwitchSupport You've crucified this platform because you failed to keep the TOS and hold everyone accountable. Why ******** should anyone believe anything a clown such as yourself has to say? Even with a 50/50 cut you still aren't profitable. Maybe if you did hold your top streamers that has brought controversy to your site. You're worried about viewbotting now because you know your *** is on the chopping block and you expect some form of grace to save you from your bullshit. There are more than enough times you and your retarded moderation team had to fix this and make twitch better than ever. But you chose to have a brown nose instead. Have fun with that. **** you, Clancy.

  Quick update, fixed the issue with my headphone amp, still only have sound in my right channel and @Twitch @TwitchSupport is still the only platform that isn't getting sound, that one really confuses me.

  @TwitchSupport Who asked for this, genuinely? You guys dont help with the support we actually ask for but youll give us things that will get spammed if we follow lots of people?! Make it make sense

  Caz ⛓️❤️‍🔥 (@CazSpella) reported 23 minutes ago

  @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

  KRISTYNxROSE 🥀 | The Crypt (@KristynxRose) reported 27 minutes ago

  I 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…. 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.

  Thiga_TV (@Thiga_TV) reported 33 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport The real problem is that you don't even ban viewbots. I've already banned hundreds of viewbots in streams and reported them all using the batch function, but none of them were banned. The response I got was that there was no violation, and that's really ridiculous.

  @TwitchSupport How can he fix the Twitch mobile screen rotation bug?

  Jester3_ (@Jester3_) reported 37 minutes ago

  @Rakunvar @TwitchSupport Yep a while back a group attacked a Minecraft server and a few of the streamers in it. Hit us with tons of bots and got told it was our problem. Have a feeling this is gonna hurt people who didn’t do anything.

• 
  HakureiRyan (@HakureiRyan) reported 40 minutes ago

  @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.

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

  nothing like explaining the same issue to @TwitchSupport 5 times just to get completely unrelated copy paste answers back.

  KisaiTenshi🎀👼🐱 (@KisaiTenshi) reported 45 minutes ago

  @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.

• 
  Hertz☄️🛰 (@HertzVT) reported 49 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport The companies who sell bots dont care if its the person who owns the channel or not. So this will just encourage people to throw bots at streamers they dont like to try and get them in trouble. I hope you guys manage a good solution eventually, I don't think this one is it.

• 
  Sasha Grey (@SashaGrey) reported 50 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport Not only are the measures taken proven to be ineffective but small - medium size channels that do NOT bot, are usually the most affected. Would still like a fix for counting lurkers as viewers 👉👈 We have proven our channels have been hurt but no solution to this since it was enacted last year, Twitch has always said lurkers are the backbone but the actions don’t align with that at all😞

• 
  LostInTransaction🔻 (@LTransaction) reported 51 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport There is clear evidence some big streamers pay or not viewbotting in the platform, like Asmongold, but you do nothing about it. "We will work on it" is not enough, there needs to be action taken.

  @TwitchSupport Oh nice, Twitch finally said something about an apparent issue Too bad they ain't gonna actually enforce this. Anyways........................

• 
  Emp (@EmperororeZ) reported 54 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport I guess the only issue is that people can maliciously viewbot people they don't like to try to ban them. Twitch is surely at least aware of this

• 
  AllSmite (@AllSmiteTTV) reported 55 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport This I really do like I do have one concern though that it would cause a lot of spam for people who might be following a lot of streamers. My Question would be does this only work if the streamer is active for the milestones to be active for viewer?
