  1. Recently, there appears to be a significant problem with bot accounts posting unsolicited links for the "cheap viewer" scam. While it's possible for individual accounts to block links entirely, this doesn't resolve the issue of the bot account as a whole.

    To this end, I believe there should be a ban on any account where their first time chat in a given channel includes any kind of link. This would be an option set by Twitch themselves and not configurable by streamers individually. In addition, it would also be helpful if a system could be put in place where any…

  2. For some reason chat replay for vods is not available in embedded experiences. Making chat replay possible for vods would make the embedded experiences better and richer.

  3. Add to Twitch iPad the same Chat Overlay Customizations that the Twitch iPhone has.

    On the iPhone Twitch app, while watching a stream, you can turn your phone to landscape mode, click settings, and there is an option to click Chat Overlay Customizations such as Adjust Overlay Opacity, change the chat vertical position, and chat horizontal position.

    There is also an option on the iPhone to change the way the Chat Switching Shortcut button works to toggle between Chat Overlay, Column Chat, and No Chat. This feature is not on the iPad.

    I like to chat in streams on my…

  4. If I received a ban from moderators in a chat, then I stop seeing messages from other users. I want if I get ban, I can see what people write in chat.

  5. Instead of showing "Pinned by", show "Posted by", to show who the user was that sent the message.

    Too often do people in chat mistake the "Pin by" as the person that sent the message and causing confusion in chat.

  8. My Idea is when the streamer grant their community with VIP or Mod the chat will get a Coronation Ceremony, animated diamonds falling, chat get shaky, lights, sparkles, all over the place for a split of seconds. Just a fun announcement

  9. In the filter window it would be great to be able to hide other user's command chat to reduce the constant stream of spam.

  10. There are a lot of streamers out there who say creepy unhinged things about children, and make jokes about harming them or SA'ing them and the streamers do nothing about it. I think if a user says something out of line like that, and the Streamer does not ban them, then the Streamer should be banned from streaming.

  12. Add an endpoint to fetch info about the new Twitch stories that have been added.

    Would be pretty useful for example to post a notification (or post the whole pic or video) in Discord so people on desktop have quick access to the stories since they are mainly about information of if a stream is gonna happen or when.

  14. Please stop imposing a time limit on how often Mods can post /shoutouts. The musician I mod for often gets 2 or more fellow streamers joining his stream at the same time and he expects his mods to give shoutouts to all of them, ASAP. For the past few months, after I post the first shoutout, when I try to post the shoutout for the second streamer, it will not go through and I get a time-out notice telling me I have to wait another 30 seconds, or 9 seconds, etc., whatever, before I am permitted to give another shoutout.…

  15. I find it frustrating that as a chatter that you need to click on the "React" to place what I think of the moment happening. The streamer should be allowed to tie them to different emotes or with a word chant (mainly for BTTV, FrankerZ or any 3rd Party Emotes), either global or the streamer's own emotes.

    This will help the streamer to get more analytics which parts the chat likes and it's less of a hassel for the audience.

  16. I personally think it would be a good idea to allow Hype Chats to be purchased using Bits instead of local currencies.

    It would allow users to better support streamers, compared to the 70/30 split that is currently offered by Hype Chat, since 100% of the Bits used currently goes directly to the streamer.

    Additionally, it would further incentivize the purchase of Bits since it creates additional usage for them.

  17. PLEASE make a feature to search whispers for keywords. Whispers are so hard to go through currently. This feature would be especially useful for mods if they're trying to find whispers from someone regarding a certain chatter being rude/disrespectful/etc.

  18. It would be really useful if there was an option to hide the live results of a poll, till the timer runs out.

    We use polls alot during stream to have the chat decide what they would like the streamer to do next, but a number of users like to wait till the last few seconds and vote just to make the poll come out 50/50, because they think its hilarious but it really ruins the vibe the streamer is going for.

    It would be amazing if there was a "hide live results" setting on the poll itself. Once the…

  20. That's it. Ability to highlight a chatters first post that broadcast.

    To be clear so that this isn't closed down again, I do not mean first time chatters ever, I realise that that is available. I mean first time in that live event.
