  1. As the topic says,

    a feature to AUTOMATICALLY restrict and monitor all accounts following your channel the same day as the accounts where made.

    This would save me and most likely others a lot of work going through your follower list everyday to keep obsessed psychopaths out.

    I am of course talking about the new marking feature that recently came to be where you can choose to monitor a suspicious chatter and even restrict his messages from being seen by the rest.

  2. 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.

  3. Chat disappears when chrome window is made smaller

  4. (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 



  5. Right to the point: I have a stream where i am regular viewer Guild Wars 2 game, but there is a player who plays in competitive scene of that game, known to the streamer i watch and his viewers.

    I've been mistaken for that player many times in streamer's twitch chat because of my nickname, which is similar to that player's nickname.

    I don't want to change my global nickname because on other streams it's fine, but for that stream alone, where i am constantly mistaken for someone else, i would set some unique nickname.

    I.e. Just like Discord's server…

  6. Make "Chat Filters" setting persistent. Currently, I have to turn my Chat Filters OFF every time I log on to the website, even though I have cookies enabled for the site, and this is very annoying. This setting should be stored in the account and persistently applied. Even better, it could be applied to each individual channel.

  7. My reasoning behind this is that a sword implies offense, as oppose to what mods actually do, which is mostly protect the communities they are apart of. I think this fits better with how Twitch and mods in general feel about their duty.

    Suggestions and feedback welcome. :D

  8. So, I know Pride Months is over soon, but it's never to late to do it.

    I wanted to show my support to Pride Month and me as many others we have done it already.

    But I would love an option for us to use a rainbow color username during Pride Month to show the support.

  9. Can we have an option to turn off the highlight on monitored users for moderation? It especially is useful for the streamer as the person being suspicious shouldn't draw the streamer's attention more than other viewers.

  10. Provide two leaderboards for channels that have Points enabled.

    One leaderboard for all-time obtained points, and one leaderboard for currently most held points.

    There could also be a sub/non-sub leaderboard? This idea is more optional though. I'm really aiming for the all-time and currently held leaderboards.

  12. Allow users to set what timezone they are in, and display both local time and the chatter's time.

    eg: I am in US/Eastern and Anon123 is in US/Pacific, so I would see something like this in my chat:
    12:01 Nivex: This is a test message
    12:02 (9:02) Anon123: Response message

  14. When selecting emotes to attach to a whisper, only a couple lines of emotes are visible, which is a pain when you have 100s of emotes to choose from. A resizable window or a large pop-out would accommodate this much better.

    The ordering system also lacks consistency. The main reason the small window is an issue for me is it's difficult to find my own channel emotes, which I wish would just always stay at the top.

  15. Similar to the setting to Block whispers from strangers. Have a secondary option that re-allows whispers from your followers, or a higher level your subscribers only.

    "Want to be famous" bots have been circumventing filters in chat by whispering creators. There are legitimate reasons to want to have whispers open to your community, but currently the only option is to block whispers from strangers. A creator can't go around and follow/friend everyone of their followers.

    A reason for including sub only (in addition to followers) would be reducing chance of harassment as subs are less likely to.

  16. Twitch betting.
    With polls already existing a betting system could be brought in. A rough idea on how it could work -
    A and B streamers are in the same team of a call of duty match and they start a poll (bet) on who will finish the match with more kills and viewers can bet on their choice of player ( A or B ). For eg. a 100 people bet 1$ each (preset odds are 1 for both) on this poll where 60 chose A and 40 chose B. B ends up winning the bet hence the voters…

  17. Similar to RAIDs there should be a section in the Creator Dashboard that allows granular access to control Shoutouts & what gets shown where (ie Chat message vs Activity Feed message vs both).

    Currently with the new rollout you are able to;
    1) Shoutout the same person every minute or so which causes their Activity Feed to be SPAMmed with notifications (usually of different view count numbers)
    2) It is possible to Shoutout the same channel at the same time by multiple accounts which can lead to Bot controlled Hate Shoutouts
    3) Resulting Mass Follows to an unsuspecting channel could…

  18. Today, when I tried to stream, I noticed I couldn't expand threads and reply to messages in Streamlabs desktop app, or in Stream Manager. But I could on my channel page, where there's a viewer count that can't be turned off. I had to put a small post-it over top, which solved the problem, but not as well as I wanted. Why am I all of a sudden not able to expand threads or reply to comments in Streamlabs desktop app, and Stream Manager? Will this issue be resolved soon?

  19. Why is the @name (if you start typing a name then hit tab it does not autocomplete the name anymore or show a list of names)? Having to typeout the name for @name or !so @name seems to revert back to the old days. Did you delete the coding on accident? As a mod for a few channels that is quite annoying. Can we fix this please?

  20. twitch chat does not correctly handle URLs containing an asterisk. it chops the link off as soon as it encounters the asterisk.

    e.g. posting this link:
    https://miro.medium.com/max/640/1*F1_GUG4BhZ1cd0miUWD2ZA.gif

    in twitch chat incorrectly redirects users to:
    https://miro.medium.com/max/640/1*

    :(
