  1. Please add an emergency option to immediately end the stream through a mod action in the event that the streamer has a medical emergency, i know this is an option for editors but there's not always one around, to prevent abuse of a stream ending system any moderator that initiates a stream end will have all moderator rights and access suspended until the streamer reinstates them

  2. Create and Manage Custom Moderator Roles with Configurable Permissions

    Currently, the moderation system on Twitch is somewhat limited: you can only differentiate between regular moderators, editors, and VIPs, without much granularity. My idea is to allow content creators to create multiple roles in order to better organize their moderation team and assign each role specific permissions.
    Example Roles

    Head Moderator: Has full access to all moderation features (ban, time-out, delete messages, edit stream title, etc.)
    Moderator+: Possesses most permissions but may not have access to critical options (e.g., managing roles or configuring alerts).
    Moderator: A standard role that can moderate

  5. I'll start by saying that i'm sorry because there is some post already talking about that but there is no improvement and wanted to talk about this feature that is utterly useless as it is right now and has been for years.

    So restrict mode inform the viewers that his message is not being posted, this is the problem (if possible i would like to know why it's made like that), because every time that happens, the viewer will start saying problematic things or spam, or it should be used to check if the users is correct to continue chatting.…

  6. Allow Broadcaster to delete their OWN messages in chat. Moderators are now able to delete their own messages in chat if they choose to, however, a broadcaster cannot! Please add this feature ASAP!

  7. As the title says, just a single button allowing the banning, block, and report of bots selling followers. It takes a little while for a small streamer (who are the ones targeted by these bots) to block, ban, and report with a message so that the bots are removed and dont both anyone else. It;s disruptive to the flow of the stream. A single button to ban, block, and areport a bot selling viewers/followers would be a great boon to small streamers and help twitch get rid of more of these bots as no doubt more would be reported.

  8. Give moderators more credit for the daily dedication.
    Make sure that we can report certain viewers more easily (without abusing either), have a platform or a common chat (discord...) where we can communicate more easily and be in contact.
    Having the possibility to provide faster feedbacks to Twitch on possible bugs and issues...

  9. Find a way to enforce homoglyphic word filters. These UTC8 combinations are crafted in a way to subvert word filters using extended character set. No idea the feasibility.

  10. Detallar y ser más específico al momento de mostrar las configuraciones.

    No son del todo claras las especificaciones mostradas dentro de la herramienta de Escudo. Al no comprender a qué se refieren, prefiero no activarlas.

  11. Basically it prevents harassment from new accounts.

    If the account is less than X amount of days old they cannot view the chat. Or the stream or anything.

    That would help so much.

  12. I had this issue for a while, in mod view you have next to stream title that "pen" moderation tool, which allows you to change titles and game category for the streamer, but once it just dissappeared for me and i do not have it there anymore. Does anyone have any idea why that happened, is it only a bug or doest it have to do with some twitch specific settings?

    any help is appreciated

  13. As a chat moderator today which unfortunately fell victim to a several hundred user chat spam bot posting dodgy discords and highly offensive messages, I was able to ban them all with the shield mode tool which worked incredibly well.

    The problem is - using the batch reporting tool, after I went past the first 100 or so, it stopped allowing me to report any more accounts.

    I understand a cap to prevent spam reports, but SURELY, for moderators using the batch reporting tool, especially when spam bots are all over Twitch the way they are, the amount should be…

  14. I got banned for either saying " Jalen has klown legs" or Wooo, go raiders" a full minute after play? There was no explanation or warning, just banned? I dont think klown legs is racist or political?

  15. Stream delay for viewer categories

    To combat stream snipers, allow streamers to customize a stream delay for each group of viewers. Similar to the "Followers-only mode" settings in Moderation, but for the stream itself.
    e.g. Subscribers: no delay, Followers: 30s-1min delay, Non-followers/Guests: 3min delay.

  16. While I do like the monitoring function, I feel like it is "crowding" the mod-chat too much. Can we maybe, instead of having the person and their message shown in a colored box, stating they are suspicious, have a colored icon showing near their name? That way, if the person chats a lot, the mod-chat is not "crowded" by the colored box.

    Thank you!

  17. DATE: 12/05/2022

    TITLE: Shield Mode Amnesty for Chatbot Developers

    With no criticism intended, suggested or implied for any of Twitch's suspensions, Community Guidelines, or Terms of Service. In general, it has seemed the only solution was to close a chatbot channel, once a chatroom and live stream had been vandalized by juvenile hacking of a chatbot response.

    Now, a new more powerful solution has been developed called Shield Mode which can be set to block chat message hacks, immediately banning hacker accounts, before the chatroom is ever hacked. With the new tools available, the old saying, "Garbage in, garbage out"…

  18. A check box system for mods to customize which tools each mod has access t. Giving creators the ability to grant different mods access to different actions. Say you trust some mods with more responsibilities like "everything" but then for others, even newer mods you're testing the waters with, you only want to check certain boxes such as letting them make polls or change the stream title, but not time out users etc. A check-box system with all the mod features where you can personalize which mods can access which tools would be super helpful.

  19. I think shield mode is great!
    But I've a doubt. What if a not sub and not follower new viewer join the stream and wants simply say "Hi I'm John" while the block for new chatters is active?
    It's needed a notification to the streamer and the modders to appear, showing the user name and the content of the message only to streamers and modders and let them to chose if enable the chat for that user in a flash.
    I still didn't try this mode. Maybe it already works like this. But if not, this could be a great…
