There's no reason affiliates shouldn't get access to follower emotes regardless of instant upload. They can't be used outside a channel with out a subscription. And there is no safety issue if they are just handled like regular emotes when uploaded. Only good standing accounts should have instant upload yes, but tying follower emotes to that is punishing smaller and new streamers and their communities, so please consider!

To be honest at a time, i was considering a similar thought, i mean, being a follower, would be cool if we could publish our own emotes, still there's a reason why it's made exclusive for streamers.

30 days is more than enough, based on their parameters.

Currently there is a restriction on Affiliates to not have access to Follower emotes if the streamer has had a infraction placed against them for breaking something in the TOS&G. I honestly do not think this fair if the user only has 1 infraction that was not even their fault (because it was at the result of a hate raid with links spam and then one of those people reporting the account, resulting in a one day suspension. ) Something as minor as this should not be the reason why we are restricted to everything. So increase the criteria for follower emote disabled on a creators profile to a higher number of infractions to make it fair for smaller creators like myself to actually enjoy all the features of the platform.
