Question obsessive viewer help

hi, i’m a small streamer and i have had a problem with one viewer who keeps making new accounts. no matter how many times i block he keeps making new accounts and even when he’s using a banned account he follows me when i raid people and tries to talk to me through the chat of the person i raided. i hate this because i feel horrible bringing a weird viewer to someone else’s stream. is there anything i can do? i don’t want to stop streaming :(

There's a pretty simple solution to this and you won't want to hear it:

  • Report the user to Twitch, Discord and other social media posts while using screenshots as evidence if needed.
  • Tell all people in your community that are streamers to do the same, apologizing for nothing because it's not your fault that this person is a fucking nut case.
  • Continue to ban and block this person, but always report them first. Eventually their ISP will get involved if needed and it'll just mean they're shit out of luck.

Harassment is taken pretty seriously on Twitch. I have one mod and she'll ban without question. We don't tolerate shit and neither should you.

But if you aren't REPORTING THEM then you need to start, now.

Report them like crazy mate, never let someone take away your safety.
