  1. As a female streamer who has been harassed through the use of anonymous gifted subs by users out of hatred or jealousy, I would have loved the option to turn off anonymous subs which limits the anonymity of the gifted subs and makes it less likely to be used as a way of harassing a streamer who currently has no way of combating this hate. Especially when there are many usernames that are derogatory remaining on the app and degrading to people, especially women.

  2. Fix inability to delete messages for deleted/deactivated twitch accounts.

    Some people have found that if they post a message and immediately delete their twitch account their chat message cannot be deleted.

  3. I’m reaching out on behalf of the 2b2t Minecraft content creator community to suggest creating a dedicated 2b2t category on Twitch.

    Recently, multiple 2b2t streamers have received short suspensions for “cheating” while streaming normal 2b2t gameplay. This appears to be causing confusion because 2b2t is an anarchy Minecraft server where modified clients and gameplay modifications are permitted by the server itself. The official 2b2t website states:

    “Players are allowed to use cheats and modifications on the server. However, the server may not allow full functionality of your cheats.”

    2B2T's Site https://www.2b2t.org/mods/

    Because of this, automated moderation or detection may potentially…

  4. When I do /followers 2m, chat says I enabled 2 minute follower mode, but mod view says I enabled 120 minute (i.e. 2 hour) follower mode.

  5. We have Timeout and Ban options, but those are confrontational and make a viewer leave. I propose we add a new option to force problematic users to watch ads if they're being annoying but not outright ban-worthy.

    Trolls love to troll, so give us the option to troll them back if they complain about ads or are just being a pest. This is a win for everyone -- Twitch gets to run more ads, Mods get to troll trolls, and streamers get paid for more ad views.

    No cooldown, let us do it as often as needed, and perhaps with…

  6. The channel so0olnce was permanently banned for alleged copyright infringement, but no DMCA notice was ever provided, and the appeal was denied within an hour with no explanation.
    We contacted STS Media, the only possible rights holder related to that stream, and they confirmed that no copyright claim was submitted.
    If the suspension is related to other copyrighted material, please provide specific details — who filed the claim and which content it refers to.
    If this was a mistake, please review the case and restore the channel.

  7. The Problem:
    Currently, the mod anniversary prompt operates on a strict timer. If you are hanging out in a streamer's offline chat and that timer runs out, the prompt disappears forever. This means mods have to either avoid in channels while offline, or constantly refresh to "save" the prompt until the streamer goes live.

    The Solution:
    I would love to see this feature behave like subscriber anniversaries. The prompt should persist across page refreshes and future visits until the moderator either chooses to share it, or explicitly clicks an option to "dismiss/not share this anniversary." or the anniversary "expires"

  8. A streamer I mod for announced he was ending stream and was going to raid out to a channel I frequent a lot, so I figured I’d go ahead and have the raid ready to go. When he went to process the raid, it wouldn’t let him as I had already started it.

    It appears as though whoever initiated the raid is the only person who can actually “raid out” which wasn’t my intention as the streamer is the one who knows when they want to click that button (after thanking viewers, subs, saying goodnight, etc). This tool is useful…

  9. if twitch could not be the absolute biggest dumb **** loser ****** low class minority has to hire minority idiots or else the minorities will cry and join hands together to create an unfair ****** minority atmosphere, you might realize banning people who deserve it increases revenue e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKM7T-lDxd4

  10. I think it would be really useful if moderators could save multiple Mod View layouts, similar to how streamers can customize their Stream Manager.

    For example, you could have different layouts depending on the stream or chat you’re moderating.

    This idea has already been suggested before, but the original post was from 2021 and didn’t get much attention.

  11. Current implementation of quick actions allows issuing a mod action with a single click without any confirmation, which is fine when you need to act fast, but opens up a huge door for a whole world of accidents and uncomfortable talks after that. For instance, I wanted to bring a browser window to the front, for which I put a cursor on a seemingly empty spot, only for a ban button next to a user in a list to manifest itself right under my cursor, which I did not have time to process before I clicked it.

    That, in my…

  12. The channel I moderate has a Channel Points redemption that lets viewers timeout a moderator for 10 minutes. The timeout itself works as intended, but it also removes the moderator role, requiring the broadcaster to manually reassign it every time the timeout expires.

    Would it be possible for timed-out moderators to automatically regain their moderator role/not lose it at all once the timeout ends? This would preserve the intended functionality of the timeout while eliminating the need for the broadcaster to repeatedly re-add moderators, especially if the redemption is used frequently.

  13. I was thinking of adding a section for the lead-mod on mod-view similar to how VIPs and regular mods have. That way it'll be separated for it other mods to see who is the lead-mod is if the mods are lurking within the chat.

  14. You want us to run ads. You make us run ads. Let us be able to run ads on individual chatters at will (/adjail @user). Corporations may not like the optics of their name being used in a form of punishment, maybe they wouldn't even mind, but you know love of ads is very niche. Let us weaponize it and even streamers who generally don't like running ads will support this

  15. The addition of the warning system is great. But I feel its missing something, as its too easy for users who are receiving the warning to simply accept and move on without truly reading what is being said to them. Adding the option for mod teams to timeout a user for 30s/60s/180s to make a user more attentive to what is being shown on screen is one part. But also changing how a user "accepts" said warning as well. Requiring the user to physically type out "I accept" or "I acknowledge" being the only acceptable responses.

  16. Please expand channel moderation capabilities to allow creators to restrict specific user tiers—such as Twitch Partners or specific account groups—from viewing their live streams and broadcasts.

    Rationale & Impact:

    Proactive Boundary & Privacy Control: Current channel bans prevent users from interacting in chat, but do not prevent them from viewing live content. Creators who have experienced harassment, unwanted attention, or brigading from larger channels/communities need proactive tools to protect their stream space before incidents occur.

    Streamer Autonomy: Streamers should have full governance over who can access their content. Providing filter options to restrict viewing access based on account tier or…

  17. The "political content" tag already exists, there's no reason to censor creators who want to discuss political topics such as zionism. It is NOT a religious belief or background, it is the support of a settler-colonial state established by the United Kingdom. In my opinion, the British had zero right to "give" that land to another group, and plenty of Jewish people feel the same. Israel is currently bombing and mutilating as many people as possible. Most rational people would call this a genocide, and these are discussions that must be had. To censor these discussions is truly throwing fuel…

  18. Hello Twitch!

    My name is Clawmaster and I am a Vtuber in the the Vtuber community and in the past month of September 2024, there has been a mass amounts of bans that has been placed on specifically Vtubers more so then usual. There is a growing concern within the Vtubing community is that we feel that Twitch is not equally handing out these bans rightfully.

    Below I will link in the timestamps of Elara covering the entire situation in her Vtuber News show going over the amount of bans that have been handed out unjustly to give more context…

  19. Despite blocking regular messages in chat setting chatters status to restricted doesn't stop them from sending message thru resub messages or cheers. Seems like an oversight to me

  20. Please add the option for pinned messages to stay around for longer.

    Sometimes you just want the pinned message to be pinned for one day only.
    The only way to do that currently is to set the duration as "until the stream ends" when the Broadcaster is offline and then requiring you to remember to unpin it again in a timely manner.
    It would be really great to have more option for how long a message should be pinned for, ideally similar to the options you get for the duration of a timeout.
