The following article will describe the features and settings in the live stream broadcaster. To open the broadcaster click on the “Live Stream” button in the header of the homepage.

You will see two tabs in the upper left corner of the broadcaster:

Viewers tab
The tab is located on the top left of the broadcaster window. When people start viewing your broadcast, they will show up here under this tab.

Connections tab
The tab is located on the top left of the broadcaster window, next to the ” Viewers“ tab . Online members in your Friends Network and the members that follow you will show up under this tab. When you see them here, you will be able to invite them to your broadcast.

Sorting the viewers list
You can sort the list of members by clicking on the drop down menu under the viewer tab. Click on the drop down menu to expand the sort options and select the criteria to sort by name, tip, most recent or age.

Mute your audio & microphone
You can mute the notifications and microphone for your broadcast by clicking on the mute icon displayed to the top of the broadcast window.

Broadcast timer
A timer is displayed at the top of the broadcast window preview which displays how long you have been broadcasting. The timer is reset whenever you stop and restart your broadcast.

By clicking on the three dots menu next to any viewers handle, you can select many options. You can send a tip to a viewer, assign them as your broadcast moderator, and add a viewer to your hotlist “ Add to Hotlist”. The flame icon will turn into blue confirming the member is added to the hotlist and the text will change to “Remove from Hotlist”.

Changing your font size
To adjust the font size click on the “Settings” icon in the broadcast window.

Click on your desired icon size then click “Apply”.

Handling abusive members
These tools are designed to give you more control over your experience and help ensure a respectful and safe environment while broadcasting.

Mute: Selecting “Mute” will prevent the member from sending you messages during your current broadcast. The muted member can still watch your broadcast and tip you, but they won’t be able to send messages.
Kick: Selecting “Kick” removes the viewer from your current broadcast. The member will not be able to rejoin until you start a new broadcast. Click on “Kick” to remove the member.
Ban: Banning a viewer removes the member from your current broadcast and adds the member to your Blocked Member list. The member will not be able to rejoin any of your broadcasts until they are removed from your Blocked Member List.

Report Abuse: You can report members who are in violation of our terms of use by clicking on “Report Abuse”. An overlay with the abuse form is displayed over the broadcast.
1. Select a reason.
2. Describe the violation in the message field.
3. Click the picture icon to add a screenshot (optional).
4. Click the “Report” button.

Our abuse team will review your report and take appropriate action.
