  @TwitchSupport It is the same issue that plagues game relying on anticheat etc like Rust. You need active moderation and people checking into things. Don't cheap out hire trust worthy non biased people to investigate reports. Real people fix real problem.

  @TwitchSupport How about you fix your discovery first? That way those of us that refuse to viewbot aren't getting quashed by everyone else who is. The onboarding process is also terrible. Our federal government is ***, so if I have to wait for some BS in the mail to get some info updated, and it's on that level, I think you guys are asking too much for chump change. Lowkey the only reason Twitch hasn't failed entirely is because of Amazon throwing money into it like a lemon car.

  @TwitchSupport Someone correct me if I am wrong but because Twitch can't figure out a way to actually fix the problem they will put a cap on top with a guess rather than actually fixing the issue. This is just silly!

  @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?

  @AKingofthesimps @WhiteLlamaShow @TwitchSupport The fact most of the people replying to your message are just attacking you for trying is really awful, im sorry man. Keep it up! It took me a few years too to get affiliate, it's not easy to get noticed sometimes. For every affiliate there's 100+ non-affiliates.

  **** (@crashoverride) reported 20 minutes ago

  @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).

  @MayhapAnon @TwitchSupport the problem is that bigger streamers can bypass this by keeping the theme off and still getting ad revenue and twitch turns a blind eye because they are making them **** tons

  @TwitchSupport hey could you reach out to me please :] I have been unable to log in to my account on my computer, I’m still logged in on my phone and I have many ways to prove it’s me so I would love if you could help me out 🙏

  @MantaVT @TwitchSupport How does this work? I'm sure I have been view botted against my will once before.

  Ceri Lokison 🐊🥚 {1.0 Debut} (@GatorceriVT) reported 32 minutes ago

  @sturdtv @TwitchSupport No, they still have a lot of perks and benefits of being a partner. I have a friend that is a partner who is mad, in their words, "Had everything stolen from them." I at less see that we have the payout. My other problem is, Twitch list this as helping non-affiliate get to affiliate but for some that goal isn't going to still be easy because they have fancy things now. Some are also going to set here and go "Oh, I'm not going to use this money until I get to affiliate." Two and half years later they finally make affiliate and going to get their pay out but suddenly they don't have the pay out they though because after 2 years of not getting a pay out Twitch is like "Oh, this is my money now" and takes it from them. This is the problems I see.

  Twitch so bogus...if you havent realized i quit last night for youtube. why are you Freezing my analytics bro .@TwitchSupport .@Twitch if you fix it i might come back. for now im on youtube

  @TwitchSupport The fix is simple. Use engagement as the weight for discovery, not view count.

  @TwitchSupport how about make lurkers count as viewers. a lot of us work too damn hard to get affiliate now you pull this crap. extremely trash

  WWEdeadman 🌐 (@WWEdeadman) reported 42 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport Ah yes, a policy where consistently botting a channel you hate makes that channel lose revenue and growth. I'm sure there won't be any problems with that at all... [/sarcasm]

  Crisendo (@Crisendo) reported 42 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport Hey Twitch, maybe it’s time to remove public view counts? It’s become mostly an ego metric. Traditional TV never shows live viewers to the audience. Sponsors already get proper analytics behind the scenes. Would take a huge chunk out of the viewbotting problem.

  @TwitchSupport uuh i think your site is broken on brave. I can't follow, I can't purchase or give bits or subs, I can't redeem channel points. Please reply here!

  Conductor Savy 🚂🐐🔞 (@ConductorSavy) reported 44 minutes ago

  @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.

  Dr. Amir (@DrAmirGG) reported 47 minutes ago

  Imagine getting banned for “purchase fraud” because someone sent fake subs to your channel and then tried to extort you. @TwitchSupport @Twitch I have evidence. Doctor in Norway, partnered creator, invited to DreamHack + Riot events... I have nothing to gain from this. Someone who could help me get this message to the right people? Thank you

  @eiyawow @TwitchSupport the point you were making was overshadowing the real problem by rage baiting. sure I get that but I don't care either.

  Ceri Lokison 🐊🥚 {1.0 Debut} (@GatorceriVT) reported 49 minutes ago

  @SinfulSiii @TwitchSupport I don't, but also, my problem is if you do not touch that money in 2 years because you are wanting it to go towards you first ever Twitch payout, Twitch starts taking that money from you so you will have a smaller payout than plan so they are forcing you to use it on Twitch so they don't have to pay you still. I don't mind non-affiliates having emotes, sub badges, and channel points because I feel like that makes your stream more interactive so you can get to affiliate faster. It's the fact they tell affiliates **** you, your work isn't **** since you're not partner because none of partners **** is being shared with affiliates. There should be more benefits for affiliate, otherwise Twitch just became another Kick without the horrible people.

  @BidiotBales @Kodiak_VT @TwitchSupport How is it parasocial? Also what good work? You're blatantly ignoring the horroble **** he's done. Which leads me to two conclusions: 1. You're legitimately stupid and haven't actually watched Hasan 2. You know he's not a good person and trying to rage bait

  KRISTYNxROSE 🥀 | The Crypt (@KristynxRose) reported 50 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.

  Hey @TwitchSupport. My friend @PartyChipLIVE got banned on twitch for pretending to dox his best friend in his friend’s twitch chat by typing in a fake address and phone number, got reported, and twitch permabanned him for it. I’m trying to help a friend. It’s been months and he’s gotten no response. Can you please assist?

  @q1supermoto_tv @TwitchSupport Bot support is a very real frustrating issue today. I am a dedicated account to fight the incompetent support system. I hope we get the real human support back where it is needed. #NoBotsForSupport Tag/Mention me for repost.

  @TwitchSupport I started streaming on Twitch in 2019 and became an affiliate that same week. I haven’t gone live in a while because I’ve lost interest. I’m curious about the reason for this change. People still need to work to gain viewers. It’s not as simple as just having flashy redeems

  @TwitchSupport Does it take an act of God to get help from support, I sent a couple of emails for over a month to absolutely no response. Can someone please provide some help?

  @GrimmiVT @TwitchSupport I feel bad for you girls when I listen at work. I can’t interact even though I’m there listening. Some of us enjoy the chatting while at the office.
