[Test] Crowd Chant
Some communities will notice a new way to "chant" during hype moments on stream. This is a limited time experiment where only some creators will have access to this feature. Creators and Mods will be able to use /chant (using text and/or emotes) in chat to kick one off. Viewers will see a private callout with the chant and can dismiss or choose to participate!
We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions here. We look forward to hearing your feedback!

On 2/2, we will turn off Chants.
While this feature was popular, we observed negative impacts to minutes watched for significant groups of creators.
Experiments help us test new ideas in real time, and decide what to build next. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us!

Could make client side option to opt out of these chant messages?

Is it possible to request the chant feature for a certain channel? It is a really good feature and it's a shame that only a limited amount of channels have the option available right now

Everyone wants to try it out, why not just roll it out to everyone? If that's not possible or it is undesirable then some kind of update on it would be greatly appreciated.

This is an awesome feature, one of my favourite Twitch features so far. It brings out the lurkers and the usual chatters and gets them to come together in the best way possible. When used in apt moments, it can help generate really awesome content too (https://clips.twitch.tv/IcyLovelyBibimbapPRChase-TFc15-1NnFDLIUSd).
In terms of it being "spammy" etc, it is totally up to how the streamer and mods manage it. I see a lot more pros to this feature than cons at the moment. But I think the feature can be dangerous and used wrongly if given to unprotected communities. In my opinion, Twitch could focus on creating an eligibility criteria to decide which broadcasters should have this feature. It sounds tedious, but I think it is very important to set the foundation right, to ensure nobody abuses it and we lose a feature with such amazing potential.
TLDR, a wonderful feature, I appreciate it being an exclusive feature for select communities at the moment, and a great way to bring people together in ways we couldn't before.

Best feature ever! I love this so much. With the main streamer I mod,, we have used it so many times! To congratulate the streamer for passing a hard level, encourage to keep going, send greeting/congratulations for special events.. or even things like !play for Marbles on Stream. It is the best feature twitch has right now and I hope every channel gets it! (Along with an option for the streamer to disable it should they wish.)

This happens way too often and is annoying, is there a way to disable seeing this?

This is a great feature that would be very useful on any Affiliate/Partner stream! It would be good if it's available for both mobile and PC/Desktop app. Please make it happen!

How do I get access to this feature?

Greetings. I have seen this feature and use it in the channels I lurk in if it pops up.
I think this is a good way to encourage further viewer engagement (if only to click the chant). I am a phonetic speller and usually by the time I have my chat comment ready to post, the chat topic has moved on.
With this option I can participate real time with everyone else.I think if this feature is kept there should be an easily accessed (1 click deep or less if posable) to turn the feature on/off, by the channels streamer/manager.

A great addition for content creators and for viewers to participate in, I think everyone should have this feature. The excitement with fellow viewers and the streamer is awesome. I'd love to have this feature soon!
