Twitch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AlexxSeven Alexx⁷ (@AlexxSeven) reported

    @SincerelyLyn IDK whats more irritating about this. the fact that they made a whole category instead of addressing the real issue (their lack of communication about this change before hand and what it means.) or the fact that this was more important to twitch than A SIMPLE TRANS TAG. 🙃

  • PaplooThePirate p - Amber (@PaplooThePirate) reported

    So I just saw a really great art-making hack and I'm running to Goodwill after work to see if I can find a salad spinner, super cheap. This is why I need to get my art #Twitch days going so I can play with such ideas.

  • CrankyCuckman Cranky Cuckman (@CrankyCuckman) reported

    @RawBennett Didn't seem to bother him before he was departnered. Only now is titty streamers a big problem and Twitch needs to do something.

  • StrayedPath Deejay (@StrayedPath) reported

    @moorganyus I've seen some outrage about how Twitch was quick to add the hot tub category but still no Trans tag? I don't twitch much so I'm just neutral on this whole issue.

  • bcaudell95 Brandon Caudell (@bcaudell95) reported

    @SodacatR6 @ThomasC64945162 @Twitch Just because you find it "obscene" does not mean you should expect Twitch to take action. This person has chosen to express themselves in a way that doesn't violate the ToS, so what's the issue? Click another stream, or hell click another website if you're that offended.

  • traBdaS trabdas (@traBdaS) reported

    @adlangx @Ifucanreadthshi @Kotaku twitch wishy washy with their bans there’s literally a streamer rn shaking *** and has a stripper pole but other streamer would get banned for something minor it’s like they pick and choose, now if twitch wasn’t strict then it wouldn’t be a big problem it ain’t just about views

  • LishaLacrimosa Lisha Lacrimosa (@LishaLacrimosa) reported

    Listen. I'm not against the Hot Tub category on Twitch, but how about they work on the Trans tag first? I feel like that holds more priority and significance then hot tubs and chlorine. Everyone deserves to be seen.

  • itshusk_18 Husk (@itshusk_18) reported

    @willy_the_terry hot tub streamers are hard at work and twitch is at work hard

  • PCandHGuy Pop Culture and History Guy (docflux88 on Twitch) (@PCandHGuy) reported

    Head's up to those of you following me who are interested: I will attempt my first Twitch Stream tonight. It'll be a short one, more of a test really, and there will be some "how do you work this" cringe.

  • CPTSaltyDog CPTSaltyDog (@CPTSaltyDog) reported

    @tv_grant @Twitch the streamers who found out how to make money by being in a "hot tube" aren't the problem they are the product of the problem. If they were all streaming the latest game and still popular this wouldn't be an issue. Its the content not having enforcement for the desired outcome.

  • FairyTzarina Fairy Tzarina of Cutness and Debautchery (@FairyTzarina) reported

    @jeffbrutlag @PlayWithPenny Most credit card companies could pull out. Like your perspective on this is very limited to twitch and not the whole issue. Like having visibility is nice and all but it means **** if you're not getting anything from it.

  • SeikoJoG Seiko (@SeikoJoG) reported

    @Blun_Z I generally don't even have an issue with that kind of stream (that'd be the case if it were treated fairly), it's the fact people are defending twitch like their doing it for a social movement or something. Totally not because of their obvious bias or unapologetic horny.

  • crunkdome Temporary (@crunkdome) reported

    @Twitch the issue is the content is 100% focused on being almost naked to farm subs. There is nothing else there. Im here, im almost naked, give me money.

  • Blaaz3Yt Rell (@Blaaz3Yt) reported

    @TrnceMannBurner Worst chat on twitch

  • HimikoYuna CPL. Himiko Yuna (@HimikoYuna) reported

    @NemisXue @Twitch This is some of the worst luck I have seen with PC repair.

  • SequelFPS x - James (@SequelFPS) reported

    @jakob if they hauled their asses to MFC or Camsoda they’d achieve the same exact content, but with a far more appropriate environment for it i’m just not a fan of twitch (for all it tries to be) enabling this and instead of addressing the incredibly glaring issue, blaming users

  • tonyortiz15 Tony Ortiz - twitch.tv/tonyortiz15 (@tonyortiz15) reported

    Make a separate site, even call it twitch whatever for camming. But when you go there, your account would need to have a verified (as best as we can on the internet, shrug) 18+ account. This would also shield twitch legally and help with pissed of advertisers. No brainer to me.

  • YokaiRye ⚔️ Just A SamuRYE ⚔️ (@YokaiRye) reported

    It’s never been a big issue to me on women getting that bread, it’s the lack of twitch actually listening to what a majority of streamers been asking about that kinda rubs me wrong.

  • KirynnVT Kirynn 🐏🤖🤍 ✧ ENVtuber (@KirynnVT) reported

    @JTentako Having some sort of #VtuberTwitch tag would help so many fans find new streamers that they want to watch. Maybe it'll even convince fans from YouTube to switch over to @Twitch :3c

  • kirbyfan45 Kirbyfan45 #LocalizePuyoPuyoChronicle #blm (@kirbyfan45) reported

    Twitch is becoming so much worse than YouTube Streaming. Why did Mixer have to die? I know the site had issues working, but at least they knew what they were doing, more than Twitch

  • ZehKafeina Zé Kafeina (@ZehKafeina) reported

    @Snake9143 @kale_420 @longdickjohnsin no, his name is apu apustaja wich is finnish to "help helper" and twitch decided to call him peepo for some reason

  • LeonMandala LeonMandala (@LeonMandala) reported

    @UltimaShadowX @Blun_Z welp at least I won't have that problem if I ever play on twitch ahahahah... ...ha...

  • ItsGoldeneyes Goldeneyes (@ItsGoldeneyes) reported

    @Chloemew @PyroJoe Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with people making money off of what they have. My issue is that Twitch isn't a porn site, it's not the place for camgirls

  • Psyfireman Psyfireman (@Psyfireman) reported

    @HeyItsOrchid @Twitch Agree. I had two issues with Hot Tub streams. 1: open visibility (they have fixed) 2: approach to Minors in that category. Minimum, they should verify age (even if easily bypassed) to view, and no minors should stream in that category because of predators.

  • DropHazard Wes (@DropHazard) reported

    you're required to be 18+ in order to view that part of the website, but WE ALL KNOW that's not Twitch's viewer base is it? I believe 21% of the overall viewers are 13-17... There's a problem there. (2/3)

  • smallsenhehe smallsen (@smallsenhehe) reported

    the ppl at twitch who thought the new ''changes'' were a good idea are pathetic, if anything youre just shining light on the issue at hand.

  • MattIsLegal Matt (@MattIsLegal) reported

    Hot Tubs category! Way to do nothing about the problem Twitch! These streams still don't have to be marked 18+

  • Cr1ms0n_lus7 Crim Lust (@Cr1ms0n_lus7) reported

    @Twitch A good first half step. But I'm not sure it UNDERSTANDS the complexity of the problems entirely. This makes it a lot easier to avoid I guess, not sure it cleans up the actual rules. Like, if I went to DRAW any of these streamers while on stream, I'd prob still end up banned

  • doncole55712031 ℤ𝕚𝕘ℤ𝕒𝕘 👽 (@doncole55712031) reported

    @WoTConsole @Twitch @Minto_Vimto FIX YOUR GOD DAM MM. 20 Straight loses FU!

  • lastlibleft LastLiberalLeft (@lastlibleft) reported

    @Kotaku What an absurd non-issue. Twitch sets the TOS for their platform. There are willing simps. There are more than enough content creators. It’s a market economy. And not a damn thing any of these categories of persons do affect you in anyway whatsoever.
