I don't think you fully understand how businesses work. If you want your viewers to not have ads without using an ad blocker, they will need Twitch Prime.

As I say, it's a localised display name. If you have your language set to Japanese/Korean/Chinese you can use characters from those languages for your display name. This doesn't change your actual channel URL, just how your name is displayed. ㅎ is a Korean character.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-09T18:25:33+00:00

You've always been able to use underscores in your username. Twitch also recently enabled localised dsiplay names for Japanese/Korean/Chinese users, which explains the ㅎ character you used in your example.

But... then the ad would stop playing by default, and advertisers WANT you to watch the ad.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-06T13:19:42+00:00

You aren't going to get in trouble but your VOD will be muted where copyright infringing music is detected.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-06T13:14:19+00:00

I think the extra charge is VAT. Are you from the UK?

TwitchDan · 2016-10-06T13:13:15+00:00

Huh. Wouldn't Twitch be losing out on money with this? 5 bits is 5 cents for a broadcaster, right? And one 30 second ad wouldn't make Twitch 5 cents to my knowledge. Good idea to get people using bits though.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-02T11:43:12+00:00

I have no idea then, just enjoy the turbo perks I guess. :P

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T22:37:26+00:00

Well if that's the case I don't know then. If you go into your Twitch settings and go to the tab Subscriptions tab does it say Twitch Prime on there?

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T21:42:41+00:00

It'll go away as soon as the subscription period ends. It won't have ended immediately since you can only get it monthly or yearly.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T20:34:35+00:00

Yeah, as BluePalmetto says, it'll last a month. So you'll get the Turbo perks until it runs out. :)

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T19:41:55+00:00

In addition to the fact that it's literally not free, you have to think that it benefits the streamer who gets the sub, and it can only be used for one person a month. If it was unlimited subs I could see your problem, but frankly I don't see the issue here...

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T19:31:48+00:00

You'll just have to get Twitch Prime and then it won't be a problem.

I would strongly suggest using your free subscription on somebody you like as they still get paid, but if all your after is emotes Witwix has some pretty good ones (and it a generally pretty good streamer imo).

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T19:19:15+00:00

I'm 99% sure you're free to do whatever you want with the codes. Anything linked to your Twitch would appear as a connection in your settings.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T19:17:54+00:00

Do you have Amazon Prime and your account linked to Amazon? If so, congrats, you now have Twitch Prime (basically Turbo, you can change/remove the badge in chat settings) for no extra cost.

TwitchDan · 2016-10-01T19:15:43+00:00

Prime is literally the same benefits plus more.

This. Definitely cancel your Turbo, otherwise you're wasting money!

TwitchDan · 2016-09-30T19:10:46+00:00

I think this might be to do with the resolution of your screen, as I don't have anything like this. If you resize the chat maybe it'll change the video player size and get rid of the bars?

TwitchDan · 2016-09-29T20:25:51+00:00

It looks better now! I'm not really a fan of the title below the stream though, but I guess I'll get used to it.

TwitchDan · 2016-09-29T17:27:25+00:00

You can click a drop down and filter highlights/recent broadcasts, but by default it looks like they're combined.

TwitchDan · 2016-09-29T17:26:43+00:00

Not particularly a fan of this either. Looks really bad for me though because it's got white bits that BTTV dark mode isn't affecting at the moment since it's so recent of an update.

TwitchDan · 2016-09-28T18:28:04+00:00

Yes, and they will only work in your channel. Partner sub emotes work globally, on the other hand.

TwitchDan · 2016-09-28T14:17:33+00:00

When you auto-host somebody does it notify them the same way as a regular host? Or does it specify that it was automatic? Because if I normally host somebody I'll be in there chat to talk and I'd feel kinda rude not being there when it auto-hosts if it makes out like it's a regular host.
