A note on our work to combat viewbotting, from CEO Dan Clancy:
There’s been a lot of discussion recently about viewbotting on Twitch, and I wanted to share an update on our enforcement efforts.
Viewbotting is bad for our business. We don't benefit from it, and we believe it harms the creator ecosystem overall. However, effectively combatting viewbotting is challenging. As we deploy updates to our real-time detection algorithms, viewbotting companies quickly respond with updates to avoid detection. Also, our detection systems must be precise to ensure that legitimate viewers are appropriately counted.
Today, we’re introducing a new enforcement type that we plan to roll out over the next few weeks. For channels identified as persistently viewbotting, we will apply a cap to the streamer’s CCV for a fixed period of time, on all of the Twitch surfaces. The cap will be based upon historical data regarding that creator’s non-viewbotted traffic. Repeated violations will result in longer penalties. Streamers will be notified when an enforcement is applied, along with the duration of the penalty, and can appeal through the appeals portal.
While streamers will be notified, we will not make a follow-on announcement when we begin issuing these enforcements, and will not publicly share details about when and where these enforcements are applied. Unfortunately, providing details simply makes it easier for companies to work around our interventions.
We believe this approach will help us make meaningful progress against viewbotting. We will continue refining our systems and expand when we apply these enforcements over time.

They looked into our case and confirmed we won't be banned for these issues in the future.

Stream Database will no longer be live 24/7 on Twitch!

Twitch denied the ban appeal, and as such, has made it obvious that it does not appreciate the way Stream Database promotes their badge campaigns.
After being banned multiple times both by playing games LIVE in the correct category, or giving badge event information in Just Chatting, it's best to just stop the stream indefinitely.
There is no way to talk to a human at Twitch, ban appeals get denied without getting more details about what the channel is doing wrong, and support tickets are closed immediately as soon as you ask about ban reasons.
I have attached their ban reason below. We can't go live again, as it seems somebody at Twitch is repeatedly targeting the channel with bans, even though there are no rules that are being broken.
Stream Database serves as the #1 source for getting information about Twitch badges, and the 24/7 Twitch stream was the #1 component of the project.
This ban will severely impact how many people learn about badges. I hope somebody will be able to take a look at this in the future and realize that this and the other bans were all false.
Thank you all for supporting the project through the Twitch channel while it was active! 💜
