Disaclaimer: This is not a rant and this is not aimed at any specific person/people
I have seen numerous posts regarding the ever increasing amount of people posting their twitch links as a post on GG's tv, now I understand nobody is doing this in a malicious way and I'll admit if I was currently streaming I would probably do the same because up until recently no staff or other members had highlighted the issues it causes.
The problem is that the staff have gone out of their way to create the Live Streams section, here streamers can notify users about when they are going live and if people want to view streamers to watch or raid they can do so.
For those who don't know Live Streams is located near the top left of the screen , I will give the benefit of the doubt to new users who genuinely may not be aware of this. You don't need to comment arguing about whether or not you've seen it and how long you've been a GG's member because it's irrelevant.
The main issues I am seeing are people that have seen these posts (we've all seen them there has been several and there will be more coming ) and some have even reacted or replied to them yet they continue to use the live streams section and post there twitch link.
Use socials , create a discord server , set a stream schedule on twitch. There's a time and place to post twitch links or going live info and it's not GG's .
I check GG's every few hours and there's cases where more than half of the feed and sometimes all of the feed is twitch links , nobody needs to see that especially when there is a section on GGs specifically for streaming.
The people who asked for the feature are the same people who would complain or even leave GG's if the feature was removed. You asked for the feature, you got the feature now kindly use the feature.
This issue needs tackling sooner rather than later as it's going to grow as the community grows otherwise.
Personally I would hate for someone post regarding a suggestion for GG's that would benefit us all , someone who needs help with something or someone who has some really useful information go ignored and unnoticed because GG's is littered with posts about twitch links.
Myself and others will be speaking with staff to get this issue resolved , thank you to those who took the time to read and acknowledge this post .
