Currently viewers have absolutely no control over who they receive a Shout from and this needs to happen if its expected that viewers will not just disable the feature entirely. Its either on or off (and currently off is broken, but I've submitted a ticket on that) at the moment. When it comes to disabling shouts from individual streamers our only option as a viewer is to block that person entirely which is not at all what the Block feature was intended to be used for.

Viewers need the ability to control what types of shouts they get or they're going to be just disabling it in massive numbers. The idea is good in theory, but I don't care to be receiving shouts from a streamer I merely sent a single message to or just got raided into. Currently I have no ability to opt out of receiving these specific types of shouts, its all or nothing and I'd just nothing if I even could.

My recommendation is that Viewers have the ability to opt out of entire categories of Shouts as well as having the ability to ignore shouts from specific Streamers within those categories rather than being forced to block the person.

If this feature isn't going to die in the next few weeks, there needs to be additional options given to viewers to have some control over which Streamers they receive Shouts from so they can limit themselves to those they actually care about getting a Shout from.

The feature has only been out for about 24 hours and I've gotten more than a dozen shouts from streamers I have no interest in getting shouts from.
