Hasan wants stronger Twitch response to hate raids amid daily botting Instagram: hasandpikerTwitch star Hasan \u2018HasanAbi\u2019 Piker wants to help Twitch deal with the rise of \u201chate raids\u201d after dealing with botting on a daily basis. In the last few weeks, an increasing number of Twitch streamers have fallen victim to \u201chate raids\u201d, which are essentially streamer\u2019s chats being botted with hundreds of spam messages with racist and homophobic derogatory terms. The main focus of hate raids is towards LGBTQ+ and minority groups of streamers, but slowly other streamers outside those groups have experienced the plague that is quickly spreading across the platform. One notable streamer who has experienced these raid\u2019s on an almost daily basis is HasanAbi and he isn\u2019t going to stay quiet about the situation or Twitch\u2019s lack of effort to stop what goes against TOS. While he may experience the botting on a daily basis, Hasan does have a robust team of mods that are quick to address any situations in his chat, a luxury that isn\u2019t afforded to some burgeoning streamers. It can be hard to deal with hundreds of bots spamming at once, and despite Twitch having workarounds like follower-only and subscriber-only modes, it can be damaging to smaller streamers that are trying to grow. As a result, Hasan says he\u2019s going to \u201cdefinitely talk to Twitch about this issue\u201d because there are only temporary solutions right now. \u201cIt\u2019s not something that anyone should deal with, let alone smaller streamers trying to grow,\u201d he said. i’ll definitely talk to twitch about this issue as well as it’s not something that anyone should deal with, let alone smaller streamers trying to grow. the suggestions above are temporary solutions. \u2014 hasanabi (@hasanthehun) August 22, 2021 Hasan has taken a different approach to other streamers experiencing hate raids. Some creators \u2013 including \u2018RekItRaven\u2018 \u2013 have banded together to start the #ADayOffTwitch boycott as a way to make their voices heard regarding Twitch\u2019s initial response to the hate raids. Streamers affected by the hate raids believe Twitch\u2019s response wasn\u2019t strong enough, so the movement is an effort to be taken seriously by the platform and is asking streamers to not go live or visit the site on September 1. It remains to be seen if how many more will join them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
