[MERGED] Bring back colored /me chat messages + Update the /me command to color chat messages FOR MODS/BROADCASTER ROLES ONLY
Or at least give streamers the authority to enable or disable it. But the ENTIRE point was how it stood out with color. Plain black with italics just renders it useless.
Hey all,
Thank you for the patience with us on this. This has been one of the most popular ideas on UserVoice and we definitely heard your feedback.
Today we launched /announcement for mods and streamers. Announcements can be used in chat to highlight a message and are available in 4 different colors along with the channel accent color. Because this is only part of the ask of this idea we are setting this idea to partial release so the community can continue to leave feedback on this.

Another example of how twitch keep removing control from streamers!
Give us control of our own channel!
Let us toggle this on and off.
Feels like twitch never even put this out for the wider audience to respond to. -

This is pointless to change! At least let the streamer toggle it off and on at their leisure! Give us options and choices, not limit what we and our chats can do. Italics in chat are NOT as distinguishable as a fully color message. The people doing "false donations" and misusing these features should be encouraged to be reported, but don't punish the masses by removing a fun feature for the rest of us.

I want colored /me messages back.

Why even remove it in the first place? Because you think its an issue? Consult your communities before you make a massive change.

It would be cool if the Streamer can turn it on or off. But bring it it back.

Bring /me back the way it was and also don't make it exlusive for mods/bots/streamers like some suggested. Plebs and subs like colors, too!
-mod for a small streamer

My goodness twitch has some bizzare ideas, but this really takes the cake.

When people do the /me command, it's either for raids or simple RolePlay purposes. A few streamers have stated to do /me in their raids so it stands out.
For RP purposes it's like /me gets a blanket for story time. Changing it to italics is a step back and I feel like people will abuse it.

Three choices for streamers would be great: off, mod-only, on

Genau die Färbung des Textes macht den Command überhaupt erst sinnvoll um Text HERVORZUHEBEN!
Das ist niemand verwirrt oder was auch immer als heuchlerische Begründung für die Änderung missbraucht wird. -

I can't say I'm too familiar with this, as I haven't used Twitch very much, but I'd be fine with bringing this back. I agree with the idea of allowing streamers to turn it on or off. Though the fake donation scam thing does concern me a little.

I like the idea of bringing /me to a more useable way. But for Moderators the /me was a way of telling the Chat something important.
Please create a solution where we can use both.

I do like the idea of it being able to be enabled or disabled, at the discretion of the streamer. There is literally zero point of even having the /me command without the color, that's the whole point of it!!
