StopHateBot will go offline starting August 19th 2022.
During the influx of hate raids, we helped users ban over 2,000 accounts flooding channels with hateful content.
For a great alternative, please check out SeryBot by @SeryCodes!
Best of luck, and stay safe ♥️
This feature has been many months in the making, but our work is not done. We’re actively building additional solutions to keep communities on Twitch safe, and welcome your feedback on Uservoice: https://t.co/L40vBSAZH7
🛠️ Message Similarity Fix!
Recently, some confusing false-positives were popping up -- turns out message similarity was comparing post-parsed messages instead of the raw output, causing emotes in messages to increase similarity.
tl;dr: Less false positives when using emotes.
@CharmaTTV @playwithnoise Hi Charma,
It looks like you got hit with follows from some 'hoss' accounts -- StopHateBot's filters are all focused on chat interaction to take action.
If they then began to exhibit the normal hateful message spam, it would be detected and the accounts banned!
Yet the hate raids continue even more fervently than ever.
Another 200 accounts across 2 attacks have been banned in channels protected by StopHateBot today alone -- and surely many more went by unprotected.
You're not alone, and you're not defenseless. 💪
Twitch is suing two users for their part in the hate raids that have targeted streams by People of Color and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. https://t.co/7HAUKoTiAx
StopHateBot interrupted and banned over 400 hate raid accounts last night -- from one single channel!
The attacks aren't slowing down. They're angry and frustrated that they're being defended against at every turn.
Keep yourself safe!
💬 Chat Commands
Moderators and the broadcaster can now use various chat commands to change the settings of StopHateBot!

@Lightstream Keep in mind that these bot attacks bypass unique chat by prepending random sets of characters!
StopHateBot includes message similarity filters so you can set a threshold such as 90% to catch these bots and ban them!
@Yaysian@TioGDX StopHateBot is good for catching and banning as the raid happens -- but if you've already been hit and need to block/ban enmasse, @CommanderRoot has some useful tools!
@hedgewizardly Nothing on this side, at the moment -- but there may be some anti-spam Discord bots already out there somewhere!
Depending on how things go in the future, it may be something we eventually tackle.
🚨 Refresh Your Dashboard!🚨
An important patch was just pushed that fixed an issue preventing StopHateBot from sending mod commands.
Please refresh your dashboard to keep yourself safe!
⏸️ Pause on Raid fixed!
Pause on raid was technically only pausing the auto-enable instead of just pausing moderation in general. This has been updated to pause all moderation filters on raid (sorry @_bckylws!)
♥️ Immunity List
To further help quell false-positives and hone the target of these filters, you can now immunize subscribers, VIPs, or specific users by name.
🔴 Panic Button Change:
Instead of just enabling filters to your settings, the Panic button will now set the filter settings to be higher sensitivity + enabled.
Be sure to REFRESH your dashboard if it's open to get this change!
Had this scenario in my mind where someone had accidentally misconfigured their filters, got hit with a hate raid, and the panic button did nothing to help -- hopefully this will prevent something like that from happening ❤️
If you don't want to risk false-positives but want hate raid protection from StopHateBot:
🚫Disable all filters in options
🚫Disable auto-enable for filters by putting "0" in the auto-enable fields
✅ Hit the panic button at the first sign of trouble
@knoxville1991Xx@IAmDragostini@ThatBoiNel Hi there. I can't find your account registered with StopHateBot to analyze what happened. Are you certain you were using it?
