Why does the TOS not apply to content creaters and streamers

@DYSPROssium  so one guy got banned. Thats, great - what about the big streamers who breach the TOS on a daily basis - will they also get punished? Nope, they havent for more than a year.

@NitromethaneAP Are you in the party to see they actually have their push to talk on? Or are you hearing streamers speak in general out loud. Why i said unless that party member finds them to be harrassed it would be different situation.

Giving your post i lean towards you are speaking about Shiv. Who has devs inside his stream at times. Unless those coms are open then no rule is broken. Without PROOF it was said in the in game chat then there is absolutely nothing that can and will be done. Kinda what this one streamer is well known for creating crazy content for his users and will go on rage rants. But how do you actually know in game coms have been pressed for that person to hear them?

That then makes it a concern of twitch it self or what ever platform they are on. You can report them all you want. But without in game logs showing such things its hear say.

    @E9ine_AC  anyone can see when they are talking through the ingame voice and when they arent.

    If its OK for them to use the ingame voice and calling people "*, * *". Then why is it not Ok for others to do the same?

    Sounds to me like bad excuses. "But we didnt even know that there is a icon on the screen when you use the ingame voice" "But that is his act, he likes to throw tantrums" etc.

    @NitromethaneAP Because the others was reported with proof via in game logs or screen shots. If no reports are made then how can action be taken? Those users was not offended by it. Therefore was not reported. I doubt the company will report for the users.

    As mention above if you find it to be offensive to you what someone says to another person then file a ticket yourself with the concern at hand.

    @E9ine_ACI don't have a problem with Shiv or the way he conducts himself streaming and it's good to get it out anyway but he clearly broke the rules a fair few time when it comes to toxicity and such.. xD

    @apostolateofDOOM He did before. I can't say now if he uses words that are actually against the TOS of twitch itself. They have recently cracked down hard on hate and harassment. Before maybe but I can say there are more regular players who cause far more harm then streamers who are reported in game and dealt with.
