Tax for people who get banned
It would be ideal if Twitch set a tax, a fine for people who get banned that varies based on the ban. Each ban level is assigned a monetary value that the streamer must pay. I think this allows Twitch to ensure a cleaner platform and reduce bans

While i do like the idea as it adds a monetary value to their bans, it unfortunately also allows for way too much trolling that only benefits the trolls. If you get unfairly banned. It also makes me wonder how you would enforce the fine at that point considering not everyone has their card linked to their account, making it impossible to enforce the fine and would most likely push people more towards one-off cards if they are just a viewer. One of the options for trolling there is being flagged as a malicious bot even though you are not a bot ) then you still have to pay that fine because a troll just wanted to be a pain. Now, if it is just a new account, they will just make a new account and ignore the fine entirely which bypasses the entire idea while the older accounts will either feel forced to pay in order to regain access if their appeal gets accepted ( as it is not even certain their account will get reinstated in the first place ) or get told that if they want to regain their account, they just need to pay the fine instead of doing an appeal. Just a few potential problems i can think of that only benefits the trolls. Oh and another potential downside ( although this one can also be seen as a positive depending on how you look at it ) is that it will chase people away from twitch. The downside is that you will get less people overall but the upside is that trolls will be less inclined to return once they get caught and are forced to pay before they can make any new accounts
