  1. Hey there, in our chat earlier today we had to time someone out for 10 mins. One of our mods marked them as Suspicious User so that it'd be clear when they're back from time-out and to give that a bit more attention from the mods in chat.
    However can it be an option for the streamer to have the giant visual orange highlight be turned off? It happens sometimes where the streamer is actively trying to avoid them still after a time-out and it's better to be used as a mods-only highlight. With maybe a small icon or something…

  3. Hi,
    it would be very helpful for moderators if the channels where you are a mod could be displayed in a separate list. I am a moderator in 29 channels, and it would really help me to have those channels immediately visible in their own dedicated list on the left sidebar.

  4. Many streamers utilize trial mods to assess potential long-term team members. I believe it would be beneficial to implement a trial or temporary mod role with slightly limited permissions compared to a regular mod. The proposed structure would be as follows:

    Permissions granted to trial mods:

    Issue warnings

    Apply short timeouts

    Actions requiring secondary mod approval:

    Apply extended timeouts

    Issue bans

    This approach allows the streamer to observe how trial mods handle situations while minimizing the pressure on them during the evaluation period.

  5. Recently you sent out a notice stating that a mod could now delete their own chat. Unfortunately, there were no instructions on how to do that. Could you give the procedure to do that, Thanks

  6. i feel that bans and timeouts are being used too frequently by moderators for very little reason.

    i feel like there should be a system for tracking bans and timeouts by twitch employees to prevent misuse.

    i feel that there should be a system to reduce unnecessary bans and timeouts for new chatters that require a warning prior to timeout or ban.

    i also feel like bans and timeouts should provide feedback to the chatter as to the reasoning for the ban and refer to the warning for record keeping purposes and to help the user dispute the ban with…

  7. Add the tracking of words and phrases caught, approved, denied, or allowed to expire in automod and what mod was associated with what action.

  8. Please make it so that if a streamer bans somebody, that person is not be able to have the streamer in their "Streamer suggests these streamers..." shelf.

    Example:

    Streamer A and Streamer B are friends.
    Things happen and they are no longer friends to the point that Streamer A bans Streamer B in their communities.
    Streamer A is no longer associated with Streamer B, but Streamer B still has Streamer A listed on their "suggested streamers" shelf despite being banned in Streamer A's community.

    I think that not being possible would be nice.

  9. Our Moderators should be given at least a Tier 1 Subscription for volunteering their time to moderate our channel / chat. This would be as a thank you for moderating.

  10. Check how long a user has spent on Twitch, not how old a user’s profile is but how long a user has actually spent on Twitch. Like say a user made their profile in March of 2025, but has only used their profile for 100 hours since March of 2025 vs another user who created their profile the same day but has used their profile on Twitch 10,000 hours.

  12. I think that mod tools on mobile need to reflect mod tools on web. There are quite a few very important mod features not available on mobile that are available on web. Examples being the warning and announce features. Myself and my fellow mods aren't always at our PC so at least once or twice a stream we have to ping our discord chat to ask someone to warn a person. The announce feature is something that has been missing from mobile for quite a while at this point and I don't understand why it hasn't already been addressed.

  13. Currently anonymous subs can be given to offensive account names and the streamer has no ability to report this. A gifter can continue to do this indefinitely. Streamers can only report the accounts that were gifted which does not solve the problem.

    This leads to immediate and continuous abuse.

    You removed Anonymous Bits for "Abuse" reasons despite them not carrying a name, image, or message. You left in Anonymous Gift subs even though they can be used like this. Give us an option to report these actions.

  14. Twitch should have a 3rd party accidebtal or unfair ban solution? I am stuck in this situation and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Should there not be a way for a small appeal to twitch just to get noticed by A larger creator or something similar. Obviously if someone gets banned for breaking the creators channel rules or breaking twitch tos you could just discard the proposed "small appeal" But say someone got banned for a typo that looked wrong, or a missclick or in my case a rouge mod that had it out for me personally. Does…

  16. Please allow an option, similar to phone/email verification, except to where people have to be logged in to a twitch account to view a stream. Many of my female streamer friends have been absolutely harassed with misogynistic and derogatory insults by users who constantly join their multiplayer lobbies and name themselves said insults. Being able to instantly join maps and matches they're in givin' that they're able to view it on stream. Since they don't have to login to view a stream they're able to do it without any troubles at all. PLEASE add an option that can be enabled…

  17. Ostatnio dużo polskich użytkowników zaczęło dostawać blokady konta za napisanie "=cf all", jest to komenda dla bota Okayegbot. Domyślam się, że ta komenda jest bliska zablokowanemu słowu "cwel", jednak nikt pisząc to nie miał na myśli tego słowa. Moją propozycją by było dodać frazę "=cf all" do dozwolonych fraz. Proszę bardzo wziąć Moją propozycję na poważnie, gdyż ponieważ może ona pomóc jak i moderacji platformy Twitch ale również użytkownikom. Dziękuję za uwagę.

  18. Twitch is a global platform where streamers and moderators from different countries can collaborate and grow together.
    I have moderated foreign channels that later connected with Twitch Italy, but language differences often created barriers, limiting interaction and community engagement.
    Breaking these barriers is key to fostering true global connection, where every viewer can actively participate regardless of language. I propose the integration of AI and/or real-time translation tools to enable.
    Live subtitle translation in multiple languages, allowing international audiences to follow streams without language barriers.
    An in-chat “Translate” button to instantly translate individual messages or the entire chat, while keeping…

  19. This UserVoice forum is quite...something. Just went through 20 pages of search results as well as pages for Moderation-specific feature requests, and it doesn't seem that the forthcoming Lead Moderator role is being attributed to any of the feature requests or other posts here, so thought I would post a separate feature request for this:

    When you roll out the new Lead Moderator role (as early as today, it seems), please ensure that the Lead Moderator can manage not only mods (assign/revoke) but also VIPs (assign/revoke). This does not strike me as something that one would be appropriate to grant…

  20. At Twitchcon this year, it was mentioned that there was a new feature for AutoMod that would provide a summary/log of the actions taken to the streamer at the end of the stream. I believe this would also be useful information for the moderator team or for the lead moderator.

    It would give a powerful look into what is occurring throughout the entire stream to the teams responsible for keeping communities safe!
