It's getting more and more common for streamers to get harassed by bad actors who create burner accounts with offensive, foul, and sometimes even threatening names, and bypass all forms of chat moderation by simply redeeming a channel point redeeming and having their name appear in native twitch chat as "[threatening name] has redeemed _____"

At this point there is literally no way to stop it. You cant remove the twitch message, you can't prevent it from being posted. Banning does nothing because you can only ban them post-redemption. And they'll just create another account and do it anyway.

Chat moderation does not cover channel point redeems, and the current state of Twitch Account Creation allows these harassers to constantly create new burner accounts with threatening names and hang around a streamers channel to redeem stuff and ensure both you and your entire community reads their name. It's ridiculous.

The only realistic way of handling this at the moment is pricing them out with expensive redeems, but that affects the enjoyment of the entire community since redeems now have to be ridiculously expensive.

Please either

1. Give us the more control over moderating channel point redeems. Something similar to chat moderation settings where we can specify a necessary follow time or channel status (e.g. Following for over 5 minutes, Subscriber) before viewers are allowed to chat. Allow us to do the same for channel point redeems.

2. Make it so that the streamer can toggle on/off the grey "name has redeemed ______" in the native twitch chat.

It's a simple fix. Either give us a way to control our own redeems, or make it so that these trolls don't get the satisfaction of seeing their name show up in chat and disrupt the whole stream.
