![]() Because the bots have been a problem across all websites no matter how big or small. I commend Twitch being completely honest that botting is a constant issue. Assuming the streamer or their moderators don’t take the time to ban the bots, if the channel is using the “some chatters must have a verified e-mail/phone” setting, the bots just having to wait a period of time before they can “hate raid” a channel. The reality is that combining the rarely used moderator tool /followers with phone or e-mail verification only kicks the can down the road and does not address the actual problem of bots and bots being used for hate raids. ![]() While expanding verification options is an overall good. Any viewers that don’t have a cell phone will not be able to participate in chat. ![]() One downside about this feature however is that if the streamer requires phone verification, the viewer will be required to provide a cell phone number to verify their account. Meaning users or bots using the same e-mail address to create multiple accounts will also be banned from a streamer’s channel. One other benefit using either verification adds is that any banned accounts will also ban alternate accounts that use the same e-mail or cell phone. Also, exemptions of verification exist for subscribers, VIP, and moderators. Now in addition to e-mail verification, Twitch has added not only phone verification but options on who needs to verify their phone or email based on how long their account has existed or by how long they have followed a streamer’s channel. Originally, streamers could require viewers to verify their e-mail address if they want to use the chat room. ![]() While they did host a single creator camp stream addressing the issue and bring up tools to mitigate the problem, the reception from streamers was not well received as streamers had lofty expectations that tools would be developed to stop bots from following their streams and stop hate raids outright.įinally, Twitch has announced on their blog that they updated their moderation settings updating their channel privileges settings. Unfortunately for Twitch, they were slow to make a response on this issue as this is the first time that someone used bots on a scale that reached across the entire website following every streamer no matter how big or small their viewership to harass streamers. Bots would follow streamers and then use them to “hate raid” by spamming racist, sexist, and derogatory messages ruining the stream. This time someone has been using bots for malicious purposes. Unlike bots that would appear in chat offering to sell streamers views to increase their discoverability or raid/host streamers. Hayley Erbert said Stephen Boss’ legacy has been cemented, as evidenced by how many people were affected by him, in life and death.For the past couple of months Twitch has been dealing with a severe problem of bots. You know, to really just let it all out 'cause I was holding on to so much and, you know, her with the history dancing with tWitch.ĭerek Hough’s fiancée competed on Season 10 of So You Think You Can Dance, where she was paired with All-Star tWitch. I don't think I cried, like, with the accident and then with that on top of it, it took me, like, I think two days to, like, cry. And then hearing about that was, um, I don't know honestly, it took a while to really sink in. It was after the accident, the very next day we found out, so we were kind of coming off this traumatic experience that was already just, like, heightened. Hough spoke to ET about learning about tWitch after that experience, saying: A note left by The Ellen DeGeneres Show’s DJ referenced past “struggles.” Derek Hough and Hayley Erbert had just returned from the hospital, after a frightening incident that, according to an Instagram post at the time, involved a steep hill, icy roads and the fear they would slide off the mountain.
