The guidelines for users of Twitch that are posted on its website, do specify that users should not stream live TV or sports events, or other content protected by copyright, like music. It's feasible that it is the case that this company simply made a mistake in particular since Run The FUT Market says that he was watching highlights however, the site doesn't specify what the rules are for streaming highlights. It's unclear if the streaming activity violates any laws. It's possible that he'll be removed from the site in the near future, similar to how Twitch has removed Mr. Wobbles recently.

The debate surrounding the ban of users from the site appears to have reached the point where Twitch itself tried to introduce new rules. Just last week, Twitch announced it would introduce a new three-strike policy similar to the one YouTube uses. The user could be struck against their name, however, after a certain time the strike was removed. In the event of three strikes against the account in a specified timeframe, Twitch would deactivate that user's account. In the past, the website didn't specify how long the grace period between strikes would be, however it's quite likely that this new rules system will not stop individuals from being banned without discrimination.

The months leading up to the announcement of a new FIFA game are every year a time filled with excitement and high hopes for the future and promises of hyper-optimism by EA Sports, the game's creators. The fans are looking forward to seeing something new and new after several years of games that haven't made much progress on the game's established formula.

This doesn't mean it's true that EA Sports FC 25 wasn't a terrible game. In fact, it's an excellent football simulation and one of the main reasons the reason players have experienced so tiny changes in the last few times is because EA's rivals don't even come near FIFA its level of quality. But there's plenty of room for improvement in the most popular modes of the game.

Volta mode Volta mode was added into players of the FIFA franchise with EA Sports FC 25 and became an instant success with football enthusiasts across the globe. It's a spiritual sequel to the beloved classic FIFA Street games in the 2000s' final years with more fluid controls and more advanced graphics.

Due to the highly entertaining game and the speedy matches Fans were captivated by EA's street football version. However, one of the most frequent complaints was that there were not enough online options to allow players to truly enjoy Volta. The inclusion of a competitive mode that is reminiscent of the core version's Ultimate Team formula would surely keep players on the field of Volta for long long hours.

The competitive nature and addictive gameplay loop of increasing the team's performance with more cards, and competing for the most prestigious awards within FUT Weekend League are definitely one of the most enjoyable aspects in the FIFA series The Ultimate Team mode can get somewhat exhausting over time.

Hello, Tatoeba was updated today. What’s new?

- Content report: there is a new "flag" button on the top-right of Wall posts and sentence comments to ease the report of inappropriate content to admins. This is a counter-measure to the increased spam Tatoeba is seeing recently, and also a feature some people have been asking for in the past.

- Two new languages have been added: Svan and Ao Naga. Cheers to abiniz and monsen_sanang_ai, respectively, for requesting them! Tatoeba now supports 429 languages.

Learn more about Svan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svan_language
Learn more about Ao Naga: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ao_language

- A total of 50 language icons (flags) should now look nicer. The icons have been updated to a vector-based image instead of a raster image, which means they won’t look pixelated or blurry but always sharp, even when zooming in.

Thanks for the update, Gillux.

If I might use this opportunity to make a suggestion, I think it would be good to implement something that will make it more difficult for spam accounts to register themselves in the first place (captcha, email links etc.?) and delete tens of thousands of existing ones (there are quite possibly over a hundred thousand by now). Nine out of ten newly registered accounts are spammers. Of course, most of them remain silent and passive with ads and links in their profiles. This cannot be not a problem.

I agree. I have been watching the spam accounts come in literally by the minute.

I’ve been reporting spam comments as I see them, but it’s troubling that they can still have a bunch of links in their profile without making any posts. I’d like to help out with that if there’s any way I can. Probably I am too new of a user to have admin privileges, but if it would be helpful, I’m happy to throw together a script that will make a list of likely spam accounts based on common indicators (long link lists in the bio, certain keywords, lack of languages or sentences, etc). Then some admin can run through the list and delete the ones they see fit.

EDIT: just realized that user bios aren’t included in the downloadable data dumps, so maybe that won’t work.

frpzzd, thank you for your help. I have tried to figure out a common feature of spam accounts, but there is nothing really standing out, so I also think we’d need some human verification to confirm account purge.

However, I think it is too early to start deleting spam accounts. It would be better to find a way to stop the influx first, and only then start to cleanup.

As you realized, we do not export user bios. If you are willing to help, I can provide you with a database export of user bios and other information.

Certainly, carrying out any kind of account purge without double-checking each account would be a bad idea. Maybe the job can be streamlined with some analysis of the spam accounts though.

If you think it is too early to begin removing the spam accounts, I guess there's no rush. But in any case, I'd definitely love to take a look at a data dump of user bios if you're willing to share one. Maybe there are some useful features that can be extracted.

Waldelfe, I understand your concern. I am aware of the constant influx of spammy accounts, and be sure that I am willing to stop it. But this is not an easy task.

About adding a confirmation email step, I think it’s is unlikely to help. According to my own research, these accounts are created by humans. They are already going through as many open-registration websites as possible, to create user pages containing a lot of links (see, for example, user xx88art56). Tatoeba is likely the only website in 2025 not requiring email confirmation. If they can do it on other websites which require email confirmation, they will keep doing it on Tatoeba regardless of email confirmation.

About adding a captcha, I don’t think the benefits of the captcha (less spam accounts that are barely noticeable) outweigh the drawbacks (less legitimate users are able to register). Besides, captchas are unlikely to stop the spammers because they are likely real humans.

You are welcome to join the ongoing discussion about prevention of spam accounts on GitHub: https://github.com/Tatoeba/tatoeba2/issues/1613

Why would less legitimate users be able to register if a captcha was added? And thank you for the update!

You are welcome, araneo.

Captcha notoriously lower accessibility: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C...#Accessibility

Captcha can be challenging to solve, even when not visually impaired. If you have poor mental of physical health, simply browsing a website may require a lot of energy; having to solve captchas on the top of that is not helping.

In general, I don’t think anybody is happy to be prompted to solve a captcha.

For these reasons, I’d rather not add more captchas on the web unless there is a really good reason to do so.

Thank you for the explanation and for taking that into consideration!

in my experience captchas are easily solved by modern language models, perhaps even more so than by humans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=satnl1KTEXM

and even before that there are services employing humans from third-world countries to solve captchas for pennies

one approach i personally like is to hide submissions from new users until at least one sentence/post/whatever from them is approved by a moderator, but that might take effort to implement here since i don't think there's even a way to hide sentences yet

Interesting idea. Alternatively, for an approach that avoids making more work for the mods, we could consider hiding profiles (or just hiding profile bios) of users who have not written any sentences yet by default.

Many spammers seem to not write any sentences at all, and just fill up their bios with links. The spam accounts that write sentences are at least a little more likely to get noticed, flagged and deleted.

Hi, just a quick comment. I wish speakers of minority languages would contribute more on these. Many of these languages have less than 10 phrases. Let's try to add more digital presence on these linguistic groups.

Which languages are you talking about, if you have specific ones in mind?

Anyways, I agree. For a few weeks, I have also been mulling over how to attract more speakers of Panjabi, Gujarati, Telugu and other major languages of India to this site. They are some of the world languages that are the most underrepresented on Tatoeba (comparing the number of speakers in the world with the number of sentences in the corpus). From what I understand, multilingualism is also extremely common in India so these contributors would probably be very beneficial for the corpus.

For the moment, I don't have any good ideas for accomplishing this. Maybe someone else will chime in with thoughts.

Hello, thanks for your reply. Mostly I mean African and Indigenous languages. If you go to the all languages section, you will find many that have less than 10 phrases like Urhobo, Aymara, Haida, Cuyonon to mention some.

By the way, I also have Indian languages. In the past I studied some Kannada, which is a Dravidian language, it has an amazing alphabet, quite artistic.

Now going back to the main topic, I think we might capture some people via social media. It's the idea I have now. On Facebook you may find lots of groups that promote polyglottery and defend minority languages.
