[Test] First Participation Highlight in Creator/Mod Chat

Some creators will notice a new first-time chatter highlight is now available in chat. This feature lets creators and their mods identify and welcome newcomers in chat to their community when appropriate. The highlight is only available to creators and their mods in chat and is not displayed to the rest of your community. This feature is in a limited release, and we will monitor feedback before making it more widely available.

Creators and their mods are enrolled in the limited release automatically, and they can toggle the feature on and off in chat settings under "First Time Chat Highlight."

We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions here. We look forward to hearing your feedback!

    I like it very much!
    Now we only need coloured chat messages back and the chat overview would be perfect! ^^

    Love this and think it should be something we need to keep!

    Very Useful! Love how I'm able to tell whos new to my stream since I have a hard time remembering names or even realizing that this person has never been here so this helps me make sure i introduce myself and let that new viewer know what to expect on my stream.

    Really useful feature, I really like being able to see if someone is a first time chatter so I can provide a proper welcome and introduction to my channel. Love it!

    This is a great feature! I like being able to know for sure when someone is in for the first time it definitely helps avoid some awkward greetings

  • bubblewizard1 commented  ·   ·  Report

    I love this feature! I think it helps make everyone feel a little more welcome.

    Bem legal. É bom ter esse feedback de que a pessoa é nova no chat

    Absolutely brilliant! Now my mods and I can properly greet a first timer and they really seem to enjoy it, making sure they follow me if they didn't already. Great job making sure we connect even better with our community! :) Cheers

    I love this feature! I also often wonder when someone has been watching for a while or even been to several streams but hasn't chatted in a while. It would be great to be able to engage with those viewers directly

  • FEARxLESSxLEADER commented  ·   ·  Report

    Great feature addition! Sometimes a new person will try and chat while I'm knee deep and immersed so this really helps so our mods can welcome them if I don't get the chance first!
  • Reflix66 commented  ·   ·  Report

    I love it. Great addition! Maybe we can add thumbnails to live streams? Just like vods and video, we could add a thumbnail showing the theme of the stream.

    This feature is just awesome! I can never miss a new Viewer. Thanks you!

    I'm a huge fan of this feature and I think super helpful in making sure we don't miss any new members to the community! My moderators and I appreciate this feature a lot and hope it stays!
