Hi my names Ste I am a mixer streamer by the name of TwistedLimit. I was wondering if a channel one for non partnered streamers could be considered in the future as I believe it would benefit a wider audience then what you currently have with partners also it would strengthen your claim to help new and existing content creators these days I have seen so many content creators between 0 and 7.5k struggle and become disheartened due to the lack of support to non partnered content creators.
I believe that this idea could change the balance to shape new/future content creators with support, encouragement, exposure and the ability to connect with other new content creators so they can help each other to grow in this ever so competitive environment.
Obviously there would be conditions thus streamers would have to meet but all content creators would be considered.
I do hope you take this onboard as it is very real situation that without the support of the brand that promotes its own content creators i would think they would take a little bit of time to consider helping those who need nurturing with the support you can offer as when a new or existing content creator gets hosted, talked to in chat even get noticed by someone it sparks them to be the best they can and encourages them to push hard to seek greater things.

I do this for all of those streamers that have struggled, have had a hard time finding the right people to connect with, need and appreciate any help that is received no matter how small it isi have a post on twitter about this the link is https://twitter.com/TwistedLimited/status/1095618185183805441?s=19
There are many other content creators that feel the same and i hope this does become a thing as it will benefit so many people.

I appreciate your time

Hello, my name is Maria and my username is: maryalley.

I've been streaming since February 2019 approximately, and I'm really happy with my community because it's growing continuously. I can say that I have a very loyal and active audience in my chat. I sent the request recently and It was denied. Right now I have 2,588 followers and 25,303 views, I stream a minimum of 5 days a week and 3 hours a day. I always tell my followers when I won't stream. I really care about my community because I want them have a good time! I meet the minimum requirements. In the email denial I was told to improve the description of my channel, my social networks and the look of the brand. I rectified as soon as possible everything and I left it as professional as possible in order to be admitted in the next request. What I don't see well is the wait time for requesting again. I would like to have the possibility of a second review and to be told where I could improve and not. I think it is necessary for the streamer to know where it is failing and be able to correct everything. I can't resubmit a request in 70 days, but I think I meet all the requirements right now. I'm always playing a variety of games, so I understand that we have to have an average of 20-40 viewers. And the truth is that I comply with them.

I keep saying please contact me and rectify my application as soon as possible and I can be a member of such a fantastic community as Mixer. Both I and my audience are looking forward to it. Thank you very much for your time but try to give me the solution.

Greetings.

You just sent me an email saying you're removing the streaming feature from Xbox Game Bar in Windows 10. The feature's already implemented, works fine, and the email gives no reason for removing it.

So... why are you removing it? I use this feature all the time. If you want to hide it by default and give me a checkbox to turn it back on, that would be fine for me. But removing it altogether?

If I have to start up complex, buggy OBS every time I want to show a friend a boss battle or something in a game, I'm just going to not use Mixer at all, and probably also not share those experiences at all because you've put back all the obstacles you removed when you added the Game Bay in the first place.

If you're going to do it at least give a reason that makes sense, instead of an email that says "it's gone, if you liked it? Sucks to be you. You get no vote. Haha loser." (Which is what you might as well have typed, the message is so unfriendly.)

Discontinuing the Xbox app is absolutely the worst idea you guys had. You took 3 big steps forward by signing Ninja, Shroud and Gothalion but then took at least 20! steps back by ending the xbox app and replacing it with something atrocious.

The quality of the stream is horrendous. There is no way to change it. It makes the streamer look like (s)he is streaming from a potato. Its very unclear on how to sub. Chat is pushed over the actual content. Its possible to disable it but its very unclear. Its also unclear how to send a message. The old app did this very well.

But the worst thing, the absolute worst, is removing FTL. Mixer's pride and joy is NOT integrated into the new "experience".

Be smart and reconsider discontinuing the app.

Hello,

I would like to contact you for more information on partnership requests.

Because my community, myself, and other streamers meet the partnership criteria do not understand.

First of all, I would like you to understand that this is not a claim against my rejected request, but an exchange in order to better understand the partnership request.

1- did you take into account the region of the partnership request (for example, I am French, as well as other streamers who have already made the request and that it is also refused)?

2- To date, you are asking for an average of 40 to 60 spectators simultaneously, outside the French and French-speaking community and very few on mixers and that it is very complicated for us to get this even with trendy games. (Even one of your French partners can't get up to your recommendations and yet he is a partner and we don't understand his reason for obtaining it with these criteria!)

3- When I asked you, I told you of my ambition to help the French-speaking community with my knowledge of the platform and the services or software so that it can succeed on mixer. Many of the streamers I have helped (some of whom have become partners) appreciate the service I provide because of the lack of Francophone visibility and communication. Unfortunately, some of them left on Twitch again because of this and the lack of French speakers on the platform. It's been 3 years with this account that I'm on mixer, I'm proud to be part of your community, to have discovered Beam in February 2016. It is true, however, that with all the changes that Beam/Mixer has made since its inception, I have seen improvements mainly for English speakers.

4- Ghost spectators are a scourge that affects some streams (mine was once a stream), I was discriminated against and accused of bot with the threat of mass reporting. I am not the only one in the case who has suffered this (one of your partners has suffered this too).

5- the francophone community is therefore questioning the ccu you are asking us to set too high for the average statistics of francophones.

Looking forward to receiving a response from the partnership department, please accept my sincere greetings and congratulations to all the mixer team for the work accomplished on the mixer.

Thank you in advance

Hello, I'm OgSavageKitty and I'm going to try to keep this short. I started streaming since Oct (7 months ago). I currently have 12,322 followers and 119,547 views. I applied for partnership 5/5/19 and got a response on 5/9/19. I and my community believe that I have been reviewed unfairly. I have everything that Mixer is looking for in a partnered streamer. Community building and engagement are the reasons I got denied which bewilders me. I have an extensive, and loyal community. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be how far I am right now! They always ask me when can they sub, and have been saving sparks for me. I make sure I communicate with everyone in the stream, and actively speak to the audience. As far as to spark engagement I do have interactive buttons, but they only cost one spark. I disable all sparks that cost more than 5,000, and I tell all my viewers that use sparks on me to save them because they only benefit partner streamers.

When I was under review I only streamed and had VOD on for 3 days. Sunday I streamed Fortnite and was averaging 50-75 viewers like yall ask for in popular games. Monday I streamed GTA averaging 45viewers, and Thursday I streamed GTA and Overwatch averaging 30 viewers. "Partners should be leading the pack in their genre, as a general rule. You don't have to be in the top 5 (though if you are, please reach out to us!), " Which I do achieve whenever I stream GTA, Overwatch, or street fighter. I feel like I honestly got denied because I don't have a face cam and I'm not the only one who thinks that. That's the only real reason I can think of. If that's true then that's completely unethical. I know that there are partner streamers that don't have a face cam, but I don't know any that have gotten partner within the past couple months that stream the games that I do like Fortnite for an example. Just because I don't have a face cam does not mean I am any less professional or don't plan on getting one. The main thing that truly disturbs me is that I HAVE TO WAIT 90 DAYS TO REAPPLY?!?! Especially during summertime which is the most important time for streamers?! This is my 3rd time applying and this is the only time where I felt the most confident about applying, and the most I ever had to wait to reapply was for 30 days so why 90 now?
I take streaming very seriously, I put nothing but love and time into my channel and I know other streamers do too! I feel like I am a joke, I'm not being taking seriously even those I overachieved the requirements, and that I'm wasting my time even writing this, but if I'm not I ask if a different reviewer takes another look at my VOD, and to change the partnership process! I still have some hope, and If anything good can come from this I suggest adding back the appeal process and adding a more comprehensive email as to why the streamer was denied to prevent these unpleasant experiences we have to go through. The generic email response you receive when you get denied needs to go away altogether, or at least for those who have applied multiple times. We deserve personalized feedback. I also recommend that followers can present a reference on why they think that streamer should be partnered when they apply for partnership.
The picture below shows VOD my analytics when streaming during the review, and streaming last month( mostly streamed GTA) and thank you to those who have taking the time out and reading this.

I'm OgSavageKitty and there has been clearly a huge mistake here! I haven't stream Fortnite ONCE in the past 2 months! (but when I use to I never got this "audience growth" before because my CCU was fine) I have been only streaming Overwatch which is not a top 10 game, and when I stream Overwatch I am in the top 5. "Partners should be leading the pack in their genre, as a general rule. You don't have to be in the top 5 (though if you are, please reach out to us!)" which I have. I already email them and they said to write a feedback on here which I really didn't want to resort back to.

Greetings mixer support,

I have a big wish for you. Is it possible to create a stream server in Czech Republic?

We are the MIDDLE of the Europe and lot of people could use this stream server, because by my opinion at the moment there is EMPTY SPACE in this area and some people who lives near to Czech Republic has long distance connection between current created servers and it can be sometimes problem and they have unstoppable lags during stream, even if they have faster connection.

For example on my channel i have +10 average viewers last 3 days and sometimes the connection is disconnected. So imagine people watching and then the unwilling disconnect. ... I have fast internet enough and my latency is stable, so that's not the problem. Problem is the long distance. So how i said sometimes it DC and its annoying for my viewers and for any other possible streamer in this area.

There is also topic from another user from past: https://watchmixer.uservoice.com/forums/382521-mixer-feedback-ideas/suggestions/16287766-eu-prague-ingest

To comparsion also rival platform twitch has server in Prague and many people live in this area. ... Think about it and as a bonus you can in future also add "czech" language section.

Everything depends on you, my wish is mainly the stream server, because i really believe its a huge problem not just for me, but also for any other (potential) streamer in this location.

If you decided to create the stream server: Brno and Prague are the biggest cities here, so maybe think and eventually choose from these 2. I personally prefer Brno, because it's closer to me and Brno can be the BASE LOCATION for also Slovakia country next to us too.

Total population in Czech and Slovakia is about 16 million of people.
So i believe this decision can have impact and will be worth in overall.

The estimate vision of the location:

Map url:
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Brno/@49.0762212,17.0892742,5.68z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x4712943ac03f5111:0x400af0f6614b1b0!8m2!3d49.1950602!4d16.6068371

Think about it into future. It can boost mixer viewerbase in overall, because i believe the server will be well used.

My personal channel statistics last days (even with the disconnect problems):

https://mixerstats.com/channel/coolmantv

Important conclusion: I would be really glad if you decided to create a stream server ideally in Brno and build a middle EU point here, because by my opinion the place is really well placed for this and Brno is also really nice city.

Maybe i can also eventually be part of this base and help with the management here.

Best regards, CoolmanTV

I had an idea for customization in regards to users being able to choose custom colors for their name. This would be a global change, not only visible on your end. People complain that chat badges would be too cluttered, so here's my idea.

Put a border color around the user's profile picture that indicates whether they're pro, normal, moderator, etc. This will allow all users to change their name color to be different in chat. The same colors tend to blend together in chat, making it hard to keep up with chat, etc.

So here's my simple solution.. this causes no clutter and users have more options to be different. I have uploaded examples I made in photoshop.

This pro user, the7egend for example, wants to have their name set to red. You can easily distinguish that they're a pro user due to the avatar border color.

This is something needed going into the future, as more people from Twitch come to the platform. Twitch already has this functionality. It's defnitely something people will want in the future.

Hi,

Recently I was denied for partnership (and I am OK with it).

What I felt was a bit rough was the reason.

As I usually play Realm Royale or Paladins, the minimum required CCU for those games to be considered for partnership is 30+

I live in New Zealand (GMT +12/+13) when I start streaming at 9pm it is 4am EST and 8am GMT. 80% of Mixers viewer population is asleep or commuting to school/work where some are unable to view Mixer streams.

Considering I have peak at 70+ for Paladins and 40+ Realm for, I have been doing really well.

I am consistently in the top 5 of the Realm/Paladins category, and have been in the #1 spot frequently with less than the required average.

That said, there are partners streaming Realm/Paladins during this time who are not meeting 30+ CCV for the same reason.

I really think timezones (and similar considerations) need to be taken into consideration when reviewing partnership applications.

It's not an apples for apples comparison when you are being measured aginst streams that are streaming these games during Mixer "prime time" when the majority of viewers are consuming the site.

Thoughts?
