  @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

  @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!

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

  @TwitchSupport They better be completely serious about getting rid of all of it. Viewbotting is the biggest problem when it comes to the number of viewers watching the live stream. Let's see how this goes until I start streaming on the platform later this year.

  Twitch web notifications broken — spinner forever. GraphQL integrity check failing (OnsiteNotifications_ListNotifications). Happens across browsers/devices, comes back every ~24h after clearing data. Mobile unaffected. @TwitchSupport is this a known issue?

  @TwitchSupport Sadly this means bad actors can pay to view bot somebody else & give them issues. You need a different approach.

  @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

  @TwitchSupport How is it that it seems like you guys are constantly trying to help out the bad guys

  @TwitchSupport There is a reason my numbers look better on KICK Dan. You have abused Twitch to where the world sees it as p**n instead of gaming. Viewbotting is just one of several issues. Your lead streamer is an example of your failure. Along with his orbit. That is all on you bro. Normal people see two things out of your company: A Webcam P**N Service and Hasan Shocking his dog. Thats what normal people see. I know, I have actually talked to people who dont view this as a job oppertunity. Normal People. Those two things are what twitch is known for...

  @TwitchSupport Hello! I have encountered an issue where I can't submit any additional information on Affiliate onboarding form under "Payout Method" menu. Any advices? Tried Linux Firefox, Chromium and Windows Firefox and Edge. Still didn't really help.

  @Joysulem @thrillingd @TwitchSupport My brother in Christ these bot farms are already running racks of phones, lol. All you'd be accomplishing is the phones are used for an additional task. "You can auto detect and block" yet that never happens because it's not as simple as you're thinking. As someone who actually works in relevant industry, the solutions you think are "Fix everything" buttons are more like "Break everything" buttons if the buttons even do anything at all.

  @Crisendo @TwitchSupport “Most people are going to RELATE a higher viewership with a higher tier of content”. If you needed to read that again, and it’s usually true is most cases. Any 1000 viewer stream is usually going to be higher quality than any 2 viewer stream. Budget, experience, production are all -USUALLY- higher. There is no discoverability on twitch outside of viewership. There never has been. Thats likely never going to change.

  Josep (@josepur) reported 31 minutes ago

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

  @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.

  @TwitchSupport This is the most "we will promise to do something" statement that will never happen kind of post. Twitch knows that view bots are basically keeping the platform relevant with padded viewership numbers. If they go too hard against it, it will tank the platform, and advertisers will leave. But they have to say something for PR, and this is just it. I will expect zero practical effect on the whole view-bottling issue from this. They pretend to fight it, and ignore the problem in the same breath.

  @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

  Please someone from @TwitchSupport help find a solution for this insane ban process

• 
  The Uninvited Guest (@guest76502) reported 51 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport This is what you get when you make hundreds of people redundant and the CEO cries about viewbotting. Simple answer is how about getting the platform sorted out because streamers are sick of buffering or things that don't work in their streams. Real account verification works.

  @TwitchSupport So you're punishing creators for the actions of the people actually creating the problem. Hey @YouTube Twitch is pulling a you.

• 
  KempasUK (@KempasUK) reported 54 minutes ago

  @TwitchSupport You know how Twitch has a atreamer discovery problem and Stream Together skews categories when larger streamers join up? Why not make it so affiliates who've been streaming in a category for, say, several months consistently, can apply to be in a 'spotlight' near the category top? Similar to how partners can apply for home page. It could require a modest average viewer count, too (maybe).

  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?

• 
  HakureiRyan (@HakureiRyan) reported 1 hour 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.

  @TwitchSupport What stops someone from view botting an opponent without their permission to get them in trouble? You can't accurately apply intent to these bots.
