Disable chat for viewers who made an account before a certain amount of time
Recently I had an experience with something that i have seen plenty of people complaining about. Just like the option that disallows chat for those who havent followed for a certain amount of time, there should be an option that disallows people who have made their account for a certain amount of time. This is mostly because people who specifically come to your channel to harass always have a backup plan for being banned. People can simply be banned, make or go to an alternate account, verify a 5 second-made email (if necessary by the streamer) and then go right back into the stream to cause more disruption. It needs to be this or an IP block, not just an account block.

I totally understand your frustration with repeat offenders in streams. Adding a feature to restrict chatting for users with newly created accounts, similar to the https://capzcut.com/ model for account verification, would help reduce harassment. This would make it more difficult for troublemakers to bypass bans by creating throwaway accounts. Additionally, implementing IP blocking alongside account restrictions could further prevent disruptive users from rejoining. These measures would give streamers better control over their communities and ensure a safer environment for viewers.
