Twitch To Ban Users For 'Hate' on Other Platforms (bbc.com)
Twitch has updated its guidelines so that abuse taking place on other platforms can contribute to a suspension on the streaming site. From a report: Directing "hate or harassment" towards someone on Twitch using other services will be considered a policy violation. Conduct Twitch deems "hateful" on any platform will result in an "immediate indefinite suspension." Sexual conduct rules have also been changed to consider the "context" of a stream. Moderators will pay attention to clothing, the title of a stream, camera angles and chat moderation when deciding whether something is sexually inappropriate.
This should cut down on the instances of female gamers with suspiciously low cut tops and suspiciously high camera angles.
Twich, not Twitter. You are my brother, but you need to learn to read the headline!
If insulting a world leaders was seen as a violation of this policy, pretty much anyone who posts about politics would be muted.
What exactly does it take to get certain members off of twitter?
Not sure. But what has that got to do with Twitch?
No more edgy gamer bois screaming the N-word, well not televised, you'll need to play whatever game to get the full cancer expierence.
Son of a.
Yep. I was wrong. Apparently I can't even read TFH these days.
Nothing else. I was wrong.
"Insulting world leaders"
So you are saying anybody who insults Trump on any social media platform should be banned from Twitter?
THANKS FOR PLAYING!
You didn't even read the headline, much less the summary.. You fucking imbecile.
It is OK. Soon AI will take over the world and all of your problems will disappear.
Good thing there's no disagreement on the internet what the definition of hate speech is and the benevolent overloads over at twitch will adhere to the strict definition and show no cultural or PC bias in how they dole out justice.
Another platform about to be ruined by PC hysteria.
They have their own BADSITES policy meaning if you talk bad about the power hungry admins on another site they will ban you.
We really, really shouldn't shed light on the world of text chat and voip in online gaming.
All you're gonna find is a toxic anti-world where we act in ways we're nothing like in RL and there's a periodic appearance of a squeaker using a surprisingly well-versed foul mouth completely inappropriate for their level of life-experience. I always ask them to put their hot single mom on the headset.
Squeakers, the Easter Eggs of online gaming.
I thought feminists were telling us that clothing doesn't mean anything when it comes to sexual assault, but now we're being told that clothing does matter. I guess they mean the clothing of the accuser doesn't count, but the clothing of the accused does. More leftist double standards.
Some people would be more turned on by seeing a bare foot than a full nude wearing socks. Good luck determining what is sexual content. Also hope no one streams the Witcher or Mass Effect series. A whole lot of boning goes on in those games.
Admittedly, I read it wrong too... And was wondering why they were talking about streamers on Twitter. Which I think is even worse, since I use Twitch more than Twitter.
Sometime soon in the near future, everyone will be banned from everything for something they did that one time, that ultimately, no one gives a shit about.

Well...maybe Twitter will decide to look at their users' activities on Twitch to decide whether to ban them.
It's obvious you've got a hard-on for Trump's side boob as much you rant and rave all day.
The things you hate the most are really the things you love the most aren't they?
Eat cock Amerikuk nazis!
You mean Pence?
You are welcome on my lawn.
Whoops ... an institutionalized double-standard.
Twitch is what I do when I see your sorry face online.
Aw dammit! I'll never be allowed in that exclusive club now...
This would be less troublesome if Hate had not become synonymous with
Conservative opinion
Religious opinion
Liberal opinion
Biology
Logic
Statistics
Independent thought
The only thing you can say these days that is not considered hate speech is up-to-the-nanosecond left wing (not liberal) PC group-speak.
Sorry. I don't need Twitch, or anyone else Big Mother'ing me on every platform I happen to use.
Additionally, I'm not going to subscribe to a moving target like the chimera that is "Hate".
No.
If that means I don't use their shit, I don't use their shit. Fuck them.

Its just sexy gamer girls whispering and making wet sounds in a microphone. There's no age laws on this stuff either. ASMR is nothing but lonely Koreans or 40 yr old perverts YouTubing the youngest teens they can find. "Make me some slurpy noises with that Popsicle cucumber sucker. It helps me sleep." Orgasms usually do you sick fucks.
San Francisco, evening, Wednesday night.
The regional unveiling of their latest bike models (primarily the new V4s). A couple hot blondes, lots of catering staff in all black, so they would blend into the background. Booze, snacks, and 'exclusive' entry accommodations.
Was mostly middle aged guys, of a certain type, including a few people with their wives and very young children.
Cool tech from the vehicle standpoint, although 'fully networked bike electronics' is a bit concerning if they also have any form of wireless networking available. A green-screen photography booth for both the outgoing 959 special edition and later for the V4 S model. A fan to blow your hair and clothes and make it look like you were riding on the model, with instant capture, background placement, and photo printing, including email and social media posting.
For the record, it felt like a cult introduction more than a vehicle unveiling.
Of course the trim that was most obvious was when you went back outside to get the valet to return the key for your car (now helpfully parked in front of the venue as parking has become available after-hours) was the trio of Aprilia bikes interspersed with the otherwise colorful selection of Ducatis parked out front from the more hardcore in-city riders.
Well played, sir.

Wait.... which one do I need to ask for bitcoin advice?
Does this mean that if I don't agree with your content then I can impersonate you on another platform, report that impersonation to twitch, and basically dox you out of a monetized revenue stream?
Welcome to the PC Police folks. Now anything "bad" you say, think, do, display, endorse, allow, don't challenge, or otherwise are in any associated with is reason to hang you out to dry everywhere forever in a fit of righteousness.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain who decides what and when something is bad with very little 'why' involved. Oh crap...I mean person of unknown gender located in a region generally near an item of environmentally friendly, non-GMO, vegan cloth-like covering which may or may not be protecting their privacy or identity as it best suits them.
You can get rich if you own a politician, but you have to be rich to buy one in the first place.
I'm not surprised, I'm just surprised you'd actually admit it.
People can get turned on by fucking door knobs.
You can't apply your own bias to such things.
Likewise with hate.
ANYONE can claim they are being attacked by saying something triggers them and that's some innocent persons channel nuked. It has happened countless times before and still happens now.
Fuck perma-triggered children in adult bodies. They should be stripped of any adult mobility and rights for being fundamentally immature when you really get down to it. They are broken people.
Of course, let's not kid ourselves, most adults are fucking immature. If they were actually capable of reasoned, well-thought out decision-making skills and of sane mind, they'd not be in 10 trillion kinds of debt, being abused by shops, junk food, fake sale sales and so on.
But at least they aren't whiny cunts, just dumb cunts. Dumb cunts I can care for.
Who defines "hate"?
I have yet to meet a Democrat who does not HATE Donald Trump, who is "someone".
Something tells me this is just another situation in which huge piles of censorship and virtue signalling will be done by left-wingers who are so insular in their social circles and thought processes that they label anything they disagree with as "hate speech" which they try to eliminate. This is the opposite of "free speech", "open minded", "intellectually curious", and so many other things that were cornerstones of Western Civilization before the leftists stormed the ramparts at the 1968 Democrat National Convention and started slowly bending the Democrat party into the Orwellian nightmare it has become.
How about we all get back to the idea of FREEDOM? We all need to allow each other to freely express what we believe, and debate each other vigorously but peacefully where we disagree.
Censorship is terrible. To think otherwise is baffling, what went so wrong to encourage your kind of mind set?

Should have seen both the Town Hall (yes, it 's as bad as it sounds), from yesterday and Twitch Weekly today. There's a lot of misdirection and strawmen using rules that are absolutely valid - no child porn for example, no violence against women, etc. But completely ignore the real problem policies and their retroactively going through vods, using what is said outside twitch, etc.
Today's "udpate", essentially followed the sjw response of denying anything was new, blaming a "vocal minority" (even though some of their larger streamers have also come out against it), etc. They literally spent less then 10 min on it and that was regurgitating what was said yesterday. It _really_ didn't help the guy doing it (Brian) was acting like your stereotype douchebag. Beard'n all.
See subject & where I kicked "your kind's" (unidentifiable ac no-minds) lying asses https://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=11715333&cid=56091145/ only a day++ ago, lol!
* I see you can't STAND when I expose how easy it is for me to BLOW YOU AWAY by your downmod 'hiding' last 2x I posted this here https://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=11726377&cid=56096587/ & here too https://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=11726377&cid=56097351/

P.S.=> No small wonder you have to 'hide' behind UNIDENTIFIABLE anonymous posts & use your effete + ineffectual "downmodpoints" vs. me (which I easily nullify via my UNLIMITED posting ability even as an AC poster myself (but I "id" myself @ least unlike whimps like YOU)) - you have to HIDE everytime I blow your sorry dumbasses away (which is EVERY SINGLE TIME you try it, lol - thanks for making me look GOOD & yourselves? Well, what you are - stupid!)... apk
They want to invite a bit of Orwell by going beyond platform conduct.

As a man, I am sick and tired of being sexually harassed by women.
"Sexual conduct rules have also been changed to consider the "context" of a stream."
And then twitch vanished, and was never heard from again.
So, take the profile of a twitch user, register on a obscure social fring platform. Be abusive there. Using a different fake profile, report the original. Whoopsie!
And you just made your way to twitch, for the 2 time, with the champions club. Maybe a name change to Dr Respect??
....now ban me from Twitch .... please !!!!
All hail private property - Big Corporate Brother we love you - MOAR CENSORSHIP NOW!!!!!!
Yup, such actions make someone unfit to govern, not unfit to tweet.
