Anonymous Gift subs
Hi,
I'm wondering why creators on the platform are not protected by harassment from anonymous people gifting subs. A streamer I mod for is constantly harassed by someone on the Internet who is exploiting a way to gift subs with what I would consider against ToS.
With having this feature enabled you are opening all content creators open to abuse and NO ONE should feel that way. I know of some who have or are thinking of switching platform because of this.
I would recommend that Twitch disables this feature until a better way can be found to protect them.…

Add a limit or profile toggle for "Gift Subs Instantly"
A while back, the ability to gift subs instantly appeared alongside the selection to gift out subscriptions. Then it disappeared for a while... then it came back again recently! The ability to gift subs instantly helps expedite the process of randomly gifting out channel subscriptions which is fantastic for when you want to frequently give out a small amount of subscriptions.
However, this is also a potentially destructive user action as a simple misclick can lead to an accidental charge of anywhere up to 499.00 USD, or even higher if a typo is present in the custom quantity input.
Since…

Allows streamers the ability to toggle anonymous gift subs to avoid harassment
Anonymous gifts subs have been used to troll creators often through sexual harassment by gifting subs to inappropriate names.
Creators should have the ability to opt-out of the ability for people to gift subs anonymously if Twitch isn't able to identify the accounts with inappropriate names during the account creation process.
Twitch has a responsibility to protect not only viewers but creators.

Claimable Gift Subscriptions
A system, where a user can gift subs to the community, which the community can claim, and creators and mods can create a sub pool to collect subs, that can be claimed.
The creators can activate these under "Creator Dashboard > Affiliate / Partner > Subscriptions > Receive claimable Subscriptions"
The user, who gifts subscriptions to the community, can click on "Claimable Subscription". A panel opens up, that looks like this: https://panels.twitch.tv/panel-484294793-image-b03745c6-8228-4d17-9016-7213abf1a58b (sorry for the poor quality, but the compression really hit).
In there, the user can title the claimable sub, like asking a question. To the question, the user…3 votes -
/gift @{username}
It's currently only possible to gift to a specific user by clicking a few times. There is only the /gift {quantity} command.

Gifted subs preference to active viewers over non-viewers
I was just in a channel that had a Hype Train (300+) much higher than its active viewers (around 250), except many viewers in the channel did not receive Gifted subs. Gift subs should take precedence to active viewers in the channel and not just followers who may not even be watching the channel at the time of the Gifted sub

pre purchasing gift subs
Similar to bits it would be nice to have prepaid gift subs so i can buy x amount and give some to one channel and still have some banked, bits are just donating to the streamer which is cool but its always nice to donate subs and give to the community as a group+ the streamer and have a bulk one time buy rather that having multiple small ones if im gifting specific especially

Update Gifted Subs (namely Tier 2 & Tier 3)
The new monetization features boosting and super chats both have 70/30 splits.
Gifting a large amount of subscriptions is a standard way of supporting your favorite streamer, and right now, that would be disincentivized.
The best way to fix this utilizes Tier 2 & Tier 3 subs. Nothing overwhelming happens when they are gifted. The viewer is hardly rewarded.
Some ideas:
-have a bombastic animation play when a mass amount of tier 2 or tier 3 subs is gifted.-add color and highlights to the text that displays what tier the subscription is.
-sub points & a sub store are…

Gift subs "on behalf of" another user
Allow a sub gifter to give subs "on behalf of" another user.
Inevitably, during a hype train or just as part of the regular course of a stream, someone who is normally an avid gifter or just a steady, regular viewer and active chat participant, will express regret that their current financial status doesn't let them gift subs or send bits.
It would be nice to be able for someone (anonymous or not) to gift subs "on behalf of @UserX". Just another way of sharing some of the love around. I think several of the streamers I follow and sub…

Option to block gifted subs for followed channels
While I understand it’s a nice thought and supports the streamer, I usually lurk in the channels I follow. I suffer anxiety and I’m painfully introverted and I don’t want to feel obligated or pressured into a subscription or into having to interact with people. I know people want to support their favorite streamers but please have an option for us anxious people to block gifted subs for followed channels (as well as the already existing option for unfollowed channels)

Subs are a good way to create involvement in channels
However, I would like the option to not accept gift subs. There are lots of channels that I follow, but don't watch. Gift subs would be better suited to people who want to participate in channels.

Keep gift sub badges indefinitely
Bit badges are kept forever in the channel they are earned, but gift sub badges will get removed once the last gift sub has expired. I don't understand the incentive to earn gift sub badges that we aren't allowed to keep, especially with higher amount gift sub badges becoming available.

Refund for gifted subs and stream lab Donos
If your gifted sub and/or dono from stream labs does not show up on stream, you should be refunded. Why am I spending money for these things if I’d like them to show up on screen for the streamer and chat to see and it does not show?

A little change
When someone gifts a sub/subs, they should first be distributed to the people who are in chat at the time the subs are being gifted, if there are more gifts than viewers, or there are no more viewers to gift subscriptions to as they have all been gifted, it then should be given to followers who may not be in chat at the moment. Its a really good idea which would help with viewer retention and appreciation.

Bug about "Block Receiving Gifts on Channels You don't Follow" settings
After you activate the "Block Receiving Gifts on Channels You don't Follow" setting, if you touch any of the three settings("Hide Progressive Gifter Badge and Gifts Given Count", "Hide Subscription Status in Chat Viewer Card", "Hide Founder Badge") below it, the "Block Receiving Gifts on Channels You don't Follow" setting is therefore disabled.
I had this experience before, so I made an ticket to the support team, but at this time, I couldn't reproduce it because I didn't know the exact cause, so I just let it go.
However, this time, I find the cause and report it.1 vote -
SubGifter rewards!
I would love to see SubGifter rewards, Bit Droppers get emotes yet people who gift subs don't get any perks.!
even if its a couple of emote slots this would be huge.
this would be another incentive for people to gift a sub or 2.92 votes -

Gifted subs only for people ho have watched the channel
Gifted subs are a great idea to in crease engagement in a particular community. However I do not for the life of me understand why a gifted sub can be give to someone who has never seen the channel.
Please implement a control that forced gifted subs to be given to people who have spent a "significant" amount of time in the channel.
For instance, I was recently gifted a sub to a channel I know nothing about, and have no interest in watching based on the content being aired. This to me is a waste of the gifter's time…

Wishlist for most desired channels to get a gift sub for
As I gift subs often, I tend to get gifted subs in return a lot of times as well. Due to certain algorithms I assume, I sometimes get subs to channel I am not interested in and/or have never been to. It would be nice to get priority in gift sub bombs for channels you frequent often, or by means of some sort of wishlist, so that people know which channel(s) you'd like to get a sub gift the most.
