  1. There are several glaring holes in Twich's Emote Approval process at this time.

    To demonstrate inconsistency in your system: I uploaded copies of the same, static, non-animated emote three different times: The 1st and 3rd upload were instantly approved, while the 2nd one became "pending approval."

    To demonstrate approval time in need of improvement: I uploaded my first set of emotes on 2/10. The majority of my emotes were instantly approved. Two, one animated "rave" emote, and one non-animated "raid" emote, were listed for approval. It has been 16 days and counting since these emotes were uploaded- twitch advertises 48…

  2. If a person donated money to gifting subscriptions to a channel equal to the amount of money needed to cheer bits to unlock emotes. Then the emotes should also unlock. Gifting subs gives twitch and streamer the same percentage of money there is no reason why gifting subs is not also rewarded with the same emotes as bit cheers.

  3. bring back affiliates being able to earn extra Tier 2 + Tier 3 emote slots. Taking that away completely de-incentivized the $5 to $20 extra in cost per month for viewers to only get a single extra emote when just $5 otherwise gets them up to 14.

  5. On PC if you hover over an emote to see It's details it says who Is attributed to that emote (If someone is).
    However upon expanding emotes on the mobile app (android and IOS) this information doesn't show up.

    I feel it defeats the point of emote attribution if a large majority of the twitch community can't see the information as both can be expanded but only mobile is missing the artists name.

  6. Allow users to make custom collections of emotes, to be arranged in any way we wish. Yes, frequently used is useful, but we all know it doesn't quite cut it, for a number of reasons, one of them being that some favourite emotes aren't always used that often, and to have them collected for instant access would be very useful.

    Also, enable us to set up emote combinations that can be used with a single click. This could save a lot of time!

    It would be nice to have these synched across desktop and mobile.

    I understand that this could…

  8. sie können die Emotes des Streamers für zb 2 $ kaufen, sehen aber weiterhin die Werbung. So kann ich zb Emotes von Streamer nutzen die ich nicht schaue , aber die Emotes mag die ich sonst nicht abonnieren würde. Win win für Twitch und Streamer.

  9. I think even more emote slots AND animate emote slots for affiliates would be amazing. The imbalance between partner and affiliate makes growth so much harder for affiliates. Also specifically allow affiliates to have more emotes and tier 2 and 3. These tiers are virtually unappealing to the majority of viewers, I think more emote slots and even a couple tier 2 and 3 animated emotes for affiliates would be great.

  10. Living in a legal state for marijuana, you should be allowed to have banners, emotes, etc with marijuana related themes. It's a fun way to connect with your chat, whom will enjoy the art and emotes. It harms nobody. You guys allow people to do drinking/drunk streams which is much worse than smoking by far, and we all know that. ~ On that note. We should allow emotes and things like that to have a marijuana related theme.

  11. アフィリエイトの条件を満たしているユーザーに、収益化せずにチャンネルエモートを作成できるようにしてください。
    アフィリエイトの条件を満たしているユーザーでも、なんらかの理由(例えば副業ができないなど)の理由で収益化をしていないことがあります。
    そのようなユーザーでも、チャンネルエモートを作りたいのです。それができるなら、広告を流してその全ての収益をTwitchが得てもいいと思うほど、チャンネルエモートを作りたいと熱望しているのは私だけではないはずです。

  12. it would be nice if i had a button where some specific Emotes can get checked by twitch, even if i had trusted status where i can upload them instantly.

    Lost 2 of my Emotes and trusted Status because it doesnt go with the Emote Guidelines and thought an extra button where i can check the emotes if im unclear about it.

  13. Twitch spends a lot of time and resources monitoring/removing emotes. Whether it's responding to reports on "inappropriate" emotes that "violate Twitch guidelines" or declining emotes uploaded by creators, Twitch could reduce the amount of emote management it has to do in perpetuity by creating an 18_plus attribute that could be applied to all emotes. This will give creators the freedom to upload emotes without the fear of violating guidelines that are designed to protect minors from cyber bullying, being exposed to sensitive and/or sexual content.

    The addition of an "18_plus" attribute will give Twitch the ability to:

  14. I think that that since we already have follower emotes (albeit non animated) and tiered subscription emotes, we should have a smaller selection of emotes for turbo users that are in channel. Maybe 3 normal and 2 animated? I really think since we're being paid for them to be in the channel, that they should have some benefits for being turbo so they don't feel forced to subscribe after already paying for no ads and us gaining from that.

  15. I think it could be cool, if there were some emotes that could only be used by vips. It would bring more reward to being recognised as a VIP in a channel.

  16. Instant upload for emotes is a fantastic thing, but what if those creators who have the ability are also given the option to request approval on a specific emote. When uploading the emote, there can be a dropdown that gives two options - Instant Upload or Request Approval. This would require that their emote is approved by Twitch before it is uploaded, just like normal.

    I think this can eliminate any issues that some creators might have with their emotes. If a creator believes that their emote abides by all guidelines but want to make sure, they can request approval…

  17. I'm sure we've all come across a streamer that had emotes that made you think: "When do I use this? What does this emote even mean?"
    My suggestion is to give the streamer the option to add a brief description to each emote, so people know what they mean and when to use them!

    Example!: https://imgur.com/a/f5wRjQc

  18. Put emotes in alphabetical order of channel name.
    If I use a different browser or different computer, my emotes are in a different order, even if I'm using the same browser on a different device. It takes so long to figure out where the emotes for a given channel are.
    If you're in a stream, sure, have the channel you're watching's emotes at the top of the list. But for all other channel emotes, organize them alphabetically so it's easier to find. I don't know why but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason - or even consistency…

  19. Let us hide Emotes (for ourselves only) from streamers we don't want to see or have around us all the time, without having to actually block the channel or even blacklist every single one of their Emotes, which can cause drama AND make the viewers, who have paid for these Emotes, angry. Let them use the Emote, everyone can see them, apart from the people who have hidden them for themselves. Don't replace the Emote with some icon, just completely remove it.
    Some streamers with a lot of reach just aren't good people, and we don't need to be reminded…

  20. The current set of guidelines for Twitch Emotes is a razor-thin line of subjectivity, and it is interpreted differently depending on which human being reviews it.

    A year ago I submitted a dancing mango emote that was approved. A few months later it was taken down for violating guidelines on nudity. I reviewed the guidelines with my artist and we blurred the butt part of the dancing in an effort to comply with the guidelines. Please bear in mind that I reached out to twitch and informed them of my very conscious effort to try and follow guidelines, but that…
