  1. You should also be able to see when in the VOD the chat was sent, and what the chat says. You shouldn't have to skip through entire VODs to see what the chat says. There should be a list that contains every single chat message you've ever received, and it should be accessible in the analytics.

  2. How about a chat verification "only humans" that activates a captcha to stop bot spamming?

  3. It's not an idea, it's more of a problem. For some reason, my chat keeps "pausing due to scroll" even when I'm not touching the mouse. What gives?

  5. I see a lot of Pride Emotes, is it wrong to be "StraightPride" ? I respect others shouldn't they respect us too?
    Please add an emote to allow Straight sex oriented people to feel proud on twitch too.

  6. Ability to have different chat colors on different channels. e.g. for one red chat color for the other blue chat color. This can also be done as a Turbo or Prime Gaming feature.

  7. When twitch channel moderations kick in, let the user know WHY their message did not get send instead of a default message.

  8. As a mod, I'm able to expand my chat but as a viewer I am not. Why is this restricted to broadcasters/mods? Give the user flexibility.

  9. Using /announce should be more visible to the end-user. "Highlight My Message" has more visibility than the /announce command.

  11. I have been seeing people saying spell checks from Windows to other Browsers don't work only on Twitch. Starting in April this is happening to lots of people and just a few days ago it happened to me. Please fix this it's obviously an issue with Twitch because none of us are having this problem in other webpages.

  12. Allow Moderators of a channel have access to highlighted chat messages without the cost of channel points.
    this could have big impact in chats as moderator would be able to get a message across to either the chat or the streamer with ease without it being lost in a sea of messages.
    this could also be a fetuare the streamer could disable/enable if they dont want moderators to have access to free highlighhted messages.

  13. When streaming using my VPN, my chat constantly disconnects and reconnects. This does not happen when VPN is off, and is not actually a connection issue as I never drop frames. I could ignore the constant spamming of "welcome to the chat room" but the problem is that I miss chats from my community. Being a small streamer, this is unacceptable as I read and respond to everyone. Being a female streamer, turning off my VPN is not an option. I do understand that twitch is trying to do something about people using VPN's to get around channel bans. But…

  14. 配信を見る側の意見です。配信を閲覧中、一度配信ページを離れると、自分や他者のチャットコメントが消えてしまいます。消えないようにしてほしいです。

  15. If someone forget to set a space after end of sentence point (.) Twitch chat make a link out of it. Example: ...is really heavy.for years i try to... The "heavy.for" is shown as a link. I'm sure it will be misused in the future, when more sublevel domains are on the market. We have the it for italy domain for example. You could just do a page like ****.it and post a sense making sentence around this "link"... You know what I mean...

  16. The Viewercard for each user, specifically those with permissions in each channel to use newly added commands, such as /announce and /shoutout, seems to be missing the output for those commands.

    While i understand shoutouts actions are visible from the Modview/Dashboard, it would still be nice to be able to scroll through a moderator's chat history to view who they've previously shouted out.

    It would also be nice, and downright common sense, to be able to view the content from a moderator's previous /announce use.

  17. Leave a rules button next to the channel points to highlight the rules.
    Note: I make this suggestion because many do not read the rules and the rules button is currently very "hidden" because it has to open the settings.

  18. Current Chat is hard to read in streams with lots of viewers. Chats scroll up as new chats appear making it hard to for the eye to track at high speeds.

    I'd suggest creating a mode where chat can use a "progressive scan" approach much like old CRT televisions which illuminated pixels sequentially overwriting old pixels. With this approach, new chats would overwrite the oldest chat. The next chat would overwrite the next oldest chat. Chats would stay in a fixed position on the screen until they were overwritten by a new chat. This would make it easier to read…

  19. Сделать возможным обычным пользователям отправлять только смайлики и подписчикам писать одновременно(объединить режимы "чат для смайликов" и "чат для подписчиков" или сделать независимыми друг от друга).
    Часто во время просмотра фильма или мультипликации во избежание спойлеров ставят один из вышеупомянутых режимов. В первом случае стримеру не хватает интерактива от трансляции, во втором интерактива не хватает обычным зрителям.

  20. (I deleted my old post because it was hard to understand)

    A Welcome message that shows up every time you enter a channel's chat. Not when you click to say something like it does now, but when you first see the chat.

    It would include Rules but be more welcoming and flexible.

    Examples:

    Headline: "Chat Rules"
    Body: (Usual chat rules as they are currently)

    Or:

    Headline: "AVAST! YE SCURVY KNAVE!"
    Body: "He, she, ye, or they who dare cross this rope bridge to join us aboard the ship shall be cursed if they refuse to follow THESE RULES..."

    Or:

    Headline:…

    Twitch responded

    Sadly no update, but I just wanted to say thank you so much for reuploading if you were concerned the first post was too confusing! Means the world when people clarify <3
