Twitch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • misstwinpeaks79 Mad Madame Mim (@misstwinpeaks79) reported

    @fesshole The problem with all these people saying ‘drop his name, we’ll give him a follow’ is there’s always some jerky person on Twitter who will deliberately look him up on twitch just to say ‘you know your only follower is your dad, right?’ Hence why this fess had to remain anonymous.

  • ALIC0RE al ★彡 (@ALIC0RE) reported

    @apparentlyfi OMG 😟 twitch sucks ngl, did u try it with a laptop even tho idk if its gonna work TT

  • BaLueWolfie BaLue Wolfie (@BaLueWolfie) reported

    @Twitch For nearly 2 years, I've been trying to get the name BaLue (from BaLueWolfie). It says unavailable and there is NO ONE that goes by that name which I can find. Its been more then 6 months..... Can you help me figure out why it hasn't been released for me to use, please?

  • OneLazyGamer Ryan Sawyer 🏳️‍🌈 (@OneLazyGamer) reported

    @SquidGaming It is a very big grey area. Twitch says it's fine but what happens when a 16 year old does it? The other bigger issue is these people are using the streams to advertise for OF. You can not advertise porn to underage children and you can not be sure your subs are not under 18.

  • nineD4kid edgar joel mejia (@nineD4kid) reported

    @LilAmericanPunk hey tiff just wanted to give you a heads up that the site is having issues and wont accept my payment. I DID NOT cancel my twitch sub! Will fix asap.

  • MostCrucified registered as a legal weapon (@MostCrucified) reported

    im sorry but if ur on twitch in a hot tub at 3 am dancing for twitch simps you have some kind of problem lol

  • PotatoesMkChips Dan | PotatoesMakeChips (@PotatoesMkChips) reported

    @brittballls @SorreyTV Twitch has had issues with raids before. It normally fixes itself after a few days. Passive aggressively @ ing them on twitter works to lol

  • suzysue888 SueSutton (@suzysue888) reported

    @KatherineEBoyle @iainlee I subscribed on the £6 but topped it up to £10 as that’s what I pay now with twitch. Would it be better if I subscribed again in my husband’s name instead of the top up? Happy to do that if it helps. Keeping my 🤞crossed that it will all work out for you in the end...

  • FuriousSyndrome Furious Syndrome | He/Him (@FuriousSyndrome) reported

    @CoreKrysten Twitch takes a huge cut so if you want when I send your birthday present I can send something to help then (money)

  • GhostoftheSky_ Ghostie (@GhostoftheSky_) reported

    My current twitch emotes are just placeholders for now, I have a bunch of other ideas that I want to draw up. However I’m saving that work until after Summer has had her surgery, I can work on them on the days I’m away from my computer watching her

  • ComradeBubbles Ryan (@ComradeBubbles) reported

    Gah! Twitch is taking a long time to re-enable the 'Email my subs' feature. How am I supposed to provide a terrible and cheesy one-page RPG to my subscribers? How do inflict myself on them more than I already do?!

  • EtherealEnby Void (@EtherealEnby) reported

    @pvtheticslut i might the only issue is like on twitch there's less interactability like a chat isnt the same as being able to just talk back to me yk theres smth special abt streaming on a discord call 100%

  • MintySnacks MINT (@MintySnacks) reported

    the @Twitch Apple TV app is now the biggest offender in playback experience. Zero of the native fast forward / rewind tools work. Instead you move a cursor over an icon for FF or rewind, then tap / click repeatedly to increase the multiplier. It is absolutely awful.

  • JediandyTV Jediandy (@JediandyTV) reported

    @xPolyxena Yeah same, Twitch always seems to perform worst in chrome. I’ve been considering using Opera GX instead but there are historical personal data issues with them

  • BE_me_V Annachiara_🐳 (@BE_me_V) reported

    @OMSFanbase OMG, I'm at work right now, please, will you fix it on twitch so I'll rewatch as soon as I'll come back home??

  • spuhgogy izzy :D (@spuhgogy) reported

    the twitch app is so ******* awful and slow and **** my goddd

  • geekos5536 geekos5536 (@geekos5536) reported

    @TwitchSupport Hello. Please I really need your help, it's been 5 weeks I try to contact your support team, but I only get automated answers. My tickets are not properly read (#04991482). I'm unhappy since April, and the lack of response is making it worse. Please help me.

  • Bosquit29 Bosquit (@Bosquit29) reported

    @SquidGaming If twitch wants to promote a more adult only section, or higher age limits with stricter guidelines I don't see the issue. But as of now it is a weird anomaly on the platform that feels out of place and inappropriate compared to the rest of Twitch's content

  • OneLazyGamer Ryan Sawyer 🏳️‍🌈 (@OneLazyGamer) reported

    @SquidGaming But advertisers do have issues especially American ones, because unfortunately I live in a county of prudes. I fully agree to let people stream in peace but I also understand this is getting very murky for Twitch. Long sort of it it is twichs fault for the anger not the streamers

  • Johnny_OneLung Johnny Onelung (@Johnny_OneLung) reported

    @Th3JoseGaming Hmm could be issues with that because I think a big draw for this is for competitors is gonna be driving audiences to their Twitch pages and they mightn't like giving up re-streams to more established streamers but that's speculative. Happy it's on Twitch regardless.

  • SquidGaming Lydia (@SquidGaming) reported

    @GervaiseLiam Okay so that's a problem with how twitch sets out their rules and boundaries, so why is the hate not directed at twitch?

  • SquidGaming Lydia (@SquidGaming) reported

    @35antonio Okay so some women found a loop hole in twitch's rules. But *why* does that bother you so much? Like...why is it such an issue? Who gives a ****

  • KudosOnYT 𝙆𝙪𝙙𝙤𝙨 🇬🇧 (@KudosOnYT) reported

    Remove esports packs from twitch drops Make the drops the skins themselves, no pack, just the skins This way we don't have the whole ******* duplicate issue

  • CttnCndyGoblin CottonCandyGoblin (@CttnCndyGoblin) reported

    @Heiach Oh! I have it listed on Twitch but it's prolly not super noticeable aaa I need to fix stuff up Uhm I try to stream 5pm CST Monday through Friday

  • SmokeyDan_YT GamingWithSmokeyDan (@SmokeyDan_YT) reported

    @PAYDAYGame Run Faster, Bag Faster, Twitch don't crash the van

  • cupofwonderland Hannah Kaye • She/Her (@cupofwonderland) reported

    Trying to resist the urge of watching Twitch Streams all day cause this week has been stressful but I've got so much work to finish! 🥲

  • FoxxyWys Mr. Fox (@FoxxyWys) reported

    @thickeyhickey @__Mehrad Haha yeah no worries, yeah its a big problem on Twitch, for some reason they allow it, but ban people who call someone a simp or light insults even as jokes. Twitch management is ****** up

  • Huisyy HUISY🇨🇦 (@Huisyy) reported

    @SorreyTV My last few streams have cut in and out / reset for no reason like a good hr or do in, I always figure twitch servers, suxks tho

    @kucoincom $VRA @verasitytech developed their patented “Proof of View” protocol to solve the $160B fraud problem in the $400B online advertising space. A working product in #eSports that already has traction with #Huya, #POV is ripe to be licensed by YouTube,FB, Twitch etc. Low MC💎
