  1. It would be great if when creating an event you can input the timezone as well from a drop-down menu.
    Currently, it is locked to the local time zone of the person creating the event.

    This would be helpful for streamers who use a different timezone for scheduling and for editors who do not live in the same timezone as the streamer.

    Thank you.

  2. In a similar way as to how you can add the game you are playing to twitch, so others can see, maybe have a section that you could type in the username of a fellow twitch user and underneath the video it has a Guest section.
    So for those that stream that bring other streamers in, such as podcasts, or friends doing co-op streams they can promote their friends who also stream on twitch.
    That way people who are entering the stream can check who the guests are and also click on their names and be linked to that person's…

  3. I'd love to be able to look at Twitch events and have an option to "use previous event as a template" for times, games, and possibly description. For many of us that stream the same game consistently, it'd be a great time-saver and encourage people to use Twitch events more.

    Ideally this would be a drop-down or dialog that would pop up with previously-saved Twitch events, and would import start/end times, games, post images, or more. Specifics could be chosen through checkboxes for specific details.

  4. I'd love to see a way to turn on Notifications for all events a streamer creates. This would be helpful for streams I always want to watch, but don’t want to add each event separately. Maybe also a way to turn on notifications for specific games from a particular streamer as well.

  6. I have thought about this idea for awhile and I've brought it up to others who thought it would be a neat concept as well. We all have the twitch teams and know of them but what is it other than a fancy tag with your friends?

    My suggestion: what if there was a tab in the following section where you could follow certain teams you enjoy and a list of all the active online streamer's broadcasts show up? Might be easier to find certain communities as well like for instance if you watch a streamer on a team and…

  8. For 'Starring' - if the issue is verification, maybe have the other parties confirm before they are published as part of the event, and additionally allow them to control being able to remove themselves from a particular event if situations change. And an option, similar to who can whisper you, could be an option of who can send you a request to be added to an event (in case it gets spammed).

    For 'Streaming' - purely because some events include multiple games (ie. 24 hour stream, etc.), but you are only able to select one. Additionally, the option to reorder…

  9. I would love to take my internet radio show, which is pretty popular, to twitch. I would obtain my own ASCAP license so there wouldn't be any copyright infringement. This show could be the start of a new offshoot of Twitch. It could also be a way for regular twitch streamers to bring the audio from the "twitch radio" channel into their own and it not be muted on rebroadcast and music can be played legally on twitch.

  10. I'd love a button that would allow viewers/followers to send me feedback on what they enjoy about my streams or things they think I can improve on that I can read through once I finish streaming.

    Sure, there's the messaging system, but people rarely check that unless someone specifically mentions that they sent a message. I'm talking about a button near the follow button labelled "Feedback" or something of the sort and when clicked, brings up a short survey that has things such as "Communications skills", "Content", "Viewer interaction", etc on a list with bubbles you can click on to…

  11. When a broadcaster announces a broadcast at a specific time he can set a timer on the stream page - this way I can know when the stream starts when the time is given in different time zone

    Love this idea as well. Definitely going to consider this one!

  12. Twitch Teams are a important part of the Twitch community, and yet we rarely see the team being utilized other than when a streamer broadcasts for that team. The ideas I have to improve the Team experience will not only improve the Team page, but also allow for better promotion, increase networking within Twitch, and give viewers a better experience on a team page.

    • Give the default team page it's own 'stream', not for live content but for VoD content.
    - This feature will allow the team lead(s) to showcase different members of the team 24/7
    - If this…

  13. Bring back the option to follow all people on a team. Add features which make teams easier to search, and that make being part of a team more beneficial. Give teams the option of being Open or Closed and allow anyone to apply to open teams which are accepting applications. Teams have major potential to build communities, and grow streams, but currently they lack any useful features.

  14. A streamer could 'freeze' its own channel. This means their sub will receive a notification (generic message) that they will not be streaming for an indefinite amount of time.
    It will also 'freeze' the subscriptions of viewers so that they don't get charged during this period of streaming inactivity. The subscriptions would resume upon the streamer 'unfreezing' its channel, with the subscribers getting another notification (generic message).
    The polite and efficient thing to do for streamers, viewers and Twitch.

  15. I think there should be a quicker way to get to the team page of your streaming team. It's just a little bit annoying to go to your channel to access the team page or type it manuelly into the browser. You should be able to get to your team page just by going to twitch.tv or in the 'following'-section.

  16. For some of the larger communities, such as Speedrunning, it would be awesome if we could pull up a list of games and how many viewers and such there are, just like the twitch directory page. Sometimes I just want to watch something different and I find myself having to sift through hundreds of channels just to find one playing a new game that seems interesting to me. Having a way to sort or view the games being played in the community would be extremely helpful.

  18. Instead of having developers have to sign up for a regular account and then gather the oauth and details, just have dedicated bot users. They could also carry a bot label next to their name on their profiles.

  19. I have been an early adapter for many new implementations on twitch. Sometimes this is great but sometimes it actually breaks things so that i have to log out of my account to watch streams. Last time this happened was with the implementation of the stream minimizing to bottom left when you scroll down or change to certain pages. I don't mind testing new features and giving feedback, but i would like to know when i have been selected as a test subject.

    Is it too much to ask to be informed when something is implemented? I would be happy…

  20. As nowadays you can not only follow single channels but also games, there should also be an option to follow whole streaming communities.

    Like: XX [Streamer]
    Streaming Game Y on ZZ (Follow ZZ). [ZZ - Community]
