Possibility to "Blacklist" channels from participating in Drops campaigns

Game Development Drops
1

I know currently there is a way to Allow List Channels for a drops campaign, but I was wondering if it would be possible in the future to add a feature to Disallow or black list a channel or channels from being able to participate in a drops campaign for the whole game category.

I know there was a recent update to the community guidelines that prohibits the abuse of the drops system by running extended or 24/7 streams of vods or static images for viewers to “farm” drops. We run consistent drops campaigns for our game every week and have struggled with these types of channels even with the policy update. Reporting doesn’t seem to help much unfortunately.

If there was a way for us to manually remove a channel from a drops campaign via the campaign editor it would help us so much in halting these types of streams which are now creeping up towards the top of our category. Thanks!

It may take time for the update to the community guidelines on abuse of the Drops system to trickle down to the team that handles reports, so I’d recommend continuing to report channels that you see misusing the system.

As for some sort of block list for channels, feature requests should be submitted on UserVoice https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers?category_id=389323
