  1. Sometimes as a mod you need to tell something quick to other mods or to the channel streamer and you have to rely on other platforms like Discord or Twitter (or whispers) which makes it slow and tedious.

    It would be great to write something in chat and make it visible only for other mods and the streamer, maybe a pinned message for 30 seconds on the same area where Hype trains and other important things appear.
    The streamer could enable/disable this feature and the time to make this messages available.

  2. Sometimes I forget if I've said a certain thing in a certain channel. Maybe a Turbo/Premium feature?

    Also would be cool to be able to see friends' chat history if they allow it (like some toggle in settings "allow friends to see my chat history in across twitch").

  3. Undo whatever, whoever, added a ******* mouse-over feature in the chat history when on pc and channel is live. It is worse than annoying to have a larger emote cover chat history and the emote entry frame! What were you thinking? Restart---Do again---undo... whatever turns green for one more inept dev employee?

  4. I understand that your shadowban on VPN users is probably in place for legitimate reasons (ie. to prevent people from ruining the chat experience for others with spam accounts and whatnot). However, if I am a VIP in someone's channel, it doesn't make sense for Twitch to interfere with my ability to participate in their chat. It's kind of annoying having to disconnect from my VPN just to talk to some of my favorite streamers. I don't think the streamers would want their VIPs to be unable to chat with them either.
    Again, I'm not asking you to lift the…

  5. I would like to have a function , that allows us as streamers to turn off chat even emote chats (like completely have a function that disables all chats)

    Sometimes (i think people will agree) We dont want to have chats on all the time on our streams,

  6. A while back i had this bug in my phones chat, wich gives a really cool idea..

    The ability to randomly at times, and only thru the animated emotes on the chat, react to sound changing its image for other users emotes.

    Too bad we can't add an image or gifs for a best example.

    What you guys think?

  8. PC 크롬 웹사이트로 시청하면 채팅 언어 자동번역이 안됩니다. 다른 브라우저는 잘 되는데 오직 크롬만 문제가 있어요. 예전에는 잘 됐다가 6개월전부터 문제가 발생하고 여전히 지금도 오류가 있네요

  9. It would be ideal if Moderators could directly report a specific message in someone's logs without going to their profile, writing up a report and pasting the log through. If we were able to flag individual messages and send a direct report, it'd hopefully ***** down on hateful speech on Twitch.

    This being via the usercard would be helpful. It'd also be helpful to see flagged/reported messages on their usercard when they change their username, as Twitch clears their logs but the ban still shows.

  10. Twitch policy requires the chat to be moderated at all times, which is why trolls tend to hate-raid a Twitch channel's chat, then report it to get that channel banned and at the time of writing, it is 100% legitimate, a current threat and the only way around that is to put your chat in emote-only mode.

    The "Close Chat" feature I am suggesting ends that. Under this feature, channel editors and owners may use the /closechat command to shut down the chatroom, preventing all users from sending messages in the chat, and only the channel editors and owners may…

  12. it would be good if they gave you a reason why you got timed out so you won't do it again, now they just time you out and don't tell you why so you don't know what you did that deserved the timeout

  13. Instead of having to post hyperlinks in chat that vary in character length/size; it would be great if hyperlinks could be used as markdown text in chat similar to panels. Hovering over links could be used as well here to display to the user which website the link leads to. This would be very useful for chat bots plus broadcasters and moderators could restrict markdown to themselves and/or view full links in chat instead to minimize scam or inappropriate links to other websites.

  15. The chat box should have the ability to chime a noise once anyone says something like aim used to work years ago. Obviously if you have tons of chatters messages constantly, this would probably be not used but for small streaming channels who get a few messages per stream, it would be great to hear when someone writes in chat rather than constantly having to look at an empty chat for messages.

  18. The idea is simple: it a link doesn't start with "http://" or "https://" or other similar handlers, DO NOT automatically convert it into a hyperlink. Because there are people with a busted space bar that can get unjustly purged because the moderation bot is set to catch any hyperlink.

    And on the subject, also make the bot-catching system identify fake links once any has been reported.

  19. wanneer iemand resubed op een kanaal, wordt in de chat het volgende getoond: "(naam) heeft zijn/haar abonnement vernieuwd" dit sluit alleen alle andere genders buiten. het zal al een enorme vooruitgang zijn als "hun" toegevoerd wordt .

    bedankt!

  20. Some users are cheating by using farms of bots to spam their chat. They are doing this to make real viewers visit their stream, because usually viewers are watching channels where "some action" is happening.
    Real users and advertisers could see this kind of cheating if bots who post via API were highlighted or somehow marked.
