Rules

On Wednesday twitch changed their site rules to allow artistic nudity. The policy allowed streams to display nonsexual nudity as long as the stream is tagged, so that the stream would be hidden from the front page. Twitch rescinded the policy 2 days later.

Obviously there is an element of misogyny, but I think most of the people here complaining about the rule have not actually perused Twitch to see how things were (let alone a more thorough investigation). "Titty streamers," though I don't use the term, aren't just busy women playing video games (that is fine and within policy). Hot tub streams aside, "titty streamers" are the ones who are top less whose entire stream is just them sitting their, periodically shaking their shoulders and "reacting" to "content" that takes up about 1/16 of the screen and that's the whole stream for fucking hours. Twitch is trying to not be saturated with softcore 24/7.

It's really just a pathetic state of affairs, though just the one a shitty site like Twitch deserves.

They're still allowing that though as far as I know. Just can't draw fat cocks, etc. anymore.

Oh yeah, didn't mean to imply I was so up to date I really knew what the "artistic nudity" manifested as beyond that it was more of the softcore like the website already has.
