We strive to make our Community Guidelines easy to follow and we don’t want you to be living in fear of getting indefinitely suspended for something small, so we’re making a few updates.
First, we’ll be giving you more clarity on violations. Starting with Chat, we’ll share the excerpt of Chat where the violation occurred in the email you receive and in the appeals portal. Down the line, we’ll also be providing a clip so that you can review the violation that happened during a livestream or VOD. We want to give you this information so that you can see what you did, what policies were violated, and if you feel our decision was incorrect, you can appeal.
We’re also taking a new approach to strikes. In the current system, strikes last forever and there is confusion about how Partners and non-Partners are treated. We’ve seen that permanent strikes can be a big problem for streamers who have been streaming for a long time as they could be banned for a small infraction. Given this, early next year we’ll begin expiring strikes over time depending on the severity of the violation.
These changes seek to improve clarity about our enforcements and reduce the risk that streamers lose their livelihood for low severity infractions. To be clear, we will continue to issue suspensions, including indefinite suspensions for high severity infractions.
