  1. I'm running a Community Challenge where I will give people bot points to match the channel points they donate to the challenge. In the chat it will display the total number of points they donated to the challenge, but not the number of points they JUST donated to the challenge. This is making it difficult to keep track of what new points have been donated by each user.

    Please enhance the message in the chat to include something like "FunTwitchUser just donated 50 channel points to the community challenge and has donated a total of 1340 channel points" Right now…

  2. This situation has come up a few times now where a new mod (or a not paying attention new mod) would clear the entire queue or accidentally clear rewards which were not completed.

    A history of completed/refunded redemption for the current stream would save some searching in chat to see who redeemed what and trying to figure out what was missed.

  3. Obviously there will be an option to pick if u want a maximum amount of channel point sent in a day for the community challenge. But there should also be an option to be able to send an infinite amount. Only being able to send 2k channel points a stream just doesn’t make sense at all.

  4. I want to be able to offer the facility to hold an auction to in effect buy and sell plots within Cities Skylines.

    This would allow the viewers to effectively buy a home or business for themselves whilst I'm playing the game, so it would be named after themselves. This would create a fantastic involvement between viewers and the game.

    They could then go onto my discord and agree a price with other players in order to sell their property for a profit, but we'd need a system to transfer points between users...

    I feel this could be applied to…

  5. Allow the feature that links can only be posted through channel points. If someone were to post a link in the normal chat, it would not go through, however if they post it through a channel point redemption, it would go through.

    This feature would really benefit streamers that allow their viewers to use channel points to request videos to watch, if someone sends a link through normal chat it would not go through but if they send it through the channel point reward it would go through.

  6. Please either create a second tab on the channel points redeem page that has rewards that can be claimed using bits or leave it as is but make bits a currency as well that one could select when setting up the reward instead of points. That way there can be premium rewards.

  7. It would be very useful to get for moderators to be able to accept/deny channel points redeems directly from chat without having to open the request queue or modview. Like a small button saying ACCEPT and DENY just below the redeem.

    For moderators who work with a lot of requests every hour this would mean managing the redeems a lot faster and easier.

  8. Personally I think its a pain in the butt to edit my channel points. I would love to see something similar to the emote library but for channel points. A colour library, image library and a preview. For some creators scrolling through lengthy lists of their channel points can be difficult to make visually appealing. some creators (like myself) take pride in cohesive branding across all of my platforms. Meaning I have colour coded branding and have taken HOURS to edit my points.

    Allowing creators to preview and save a colour library and image library to drag and drop onto…

  9. Allow streamers and/or mods to view the points for each viewer, and to add/remove points from viewers in their channel. (This will also give streamers the option to manually transfer points from any other point system.)

  10. Chat polls are a super fun way to keep chat engaged and excited about whats happening in the community and on screen, and it would be cool to have at least a small channel point incentive for participating.

  11. Channel points are great, but I miss one thing. I think that adding a time limit for one stream participant will significantly diversify the possibilities of points. I am annoyed when one person overuses an option at a time (e.g. he buys a drink of water several times), but if I could limit the possibility to e.g. 2 times an hour, it would make it much easier for me and maybe it would increase my involvement on the stream. in the fact that people specially colluded to buy such activities massively, because it increases their involvement and is a great…

  12. I will preface this suggestion that I am comparing twitches current channel point system to Streamelements since twitch feels very limiting and we could do so much more with it instead of resorting to a 3rd party to use channel points which makes it inconvenient for viewers. With that being said comments saying just use Streamelements isn't helpful, i'd love everyone's actual thoughts towards this.

    Currently Twitch's channel point system feels very limiting overall especially when compared to other channel point systems aka streamelements.

  13. It would be amazing if there were an optional field to upload a short >45 second sound clip in the viewer rewards form. The current alternatives to this require various third party apps. It would be great if this was all integrated on the Twitch platform itself.

    Thanks Twitch Team for all your hard work!

  14. I have a suggestion on how to Making the Most of Channel Points. Example Viewers buy League Of Legends Skin Shard with 50k points which you have eearned watching/betting with the viewers
    I think this will be a positive impact on every party:
    -Streamer tools more Viewers/watch time.
    -Viewers get in games loot.
    -games devs/streamer relations.
    -twitch will have a way to retake those points back.

  15. So I'm no expert in this sort of thing, so don't crucify me if there's any big problems with the idea but.

    Would there be any scope in making channel points more valuable, so that you could spend them on actual things - perhaps even a twitch browser shop where you could buy various cosmetics to enhance your name or badges, emotes too, or directly support your favourite streamers by buying products they offer with channel points too.

    I see this as having benefits for all parties, that's streamers, twitch and viewers too.

    Streamers would have more concurrent viewers because…

  16. I can't see any logic behind the order of my Channel points rewards. It's not ABC or ZYX or 0123 ... nothing like this. Please let us rearrange our rewards, so it's in the order we want to have it.

  17. There are quite a lot of issues that the mobile app has that are somewhat out of your team’s control, and I understand that. However, there are a few things that I think could improve the experience while using it. One of them is to add an option to display a small “claim points” icon in the corner when you have the stream in full screen. Currently, it’s easy to forget to claim the channel points every 15 minutes, mostly because you either have to be watching the stream vertically (which is suboptimal), or you have to have the chat…

  18. Add a role for twitch viewers in which they essentially manage predictions. It would be identical to how moderators can currently manage predictions, however, these users would not have the other permissions of moderator (timing out / banning / slow mode etc.)

  19. How about we have a leader board for channel points so everyone (even the channel owner & their moderators) can see who has how many points. The channel owner would be the only person to give out channel points on their own terms.

  20. I work as a graphic designer for a streamer who exclusively likes to focus on his streams and content. It's a pain for him to have to deal with updating panels, emotes, badges, channel points, etc.

    Could Twitch provide access to mods & editors to do that kind of work?
