Riot Games, please stop requiring FaceBook Connect for us to use the Riot Games Twitch chat.

As a dedicated Twitch user and avid follower of Riot Games and the LCS, I strongly resent that my Twitch Chat privileges on such an important channel are dependent on an outside service.

I'm an amateur streamer, subscriber, and sometimes-Turbo user. I've invested both time and money into using Twitch. I value my account for these reasons, and this is reflected in how I use my chat privileges on any channel. I specifically do not want to combine my FB identity and information with Twitch.

I understand that a channel with so many viewers needs a way to filter chat. Can you explore other solutions, such as slow mode, sub mode, or Robot9000?
