  1. The Shared Ban list warning should apply for all incoming messages, not just the first-time chat.

    Example scenario: A user chats in my stream, doesn't say anything ban-worthy, e.g. "Hello." They say something to get banned by someone who I've shared ban lists with. I want to know that they've been banned but the current implementation will not share that information.

    The current implementation makes it quite easy for a bad actor to evade these warnings. Also, it's unlikely that people will open with something offensive unless they truly are trolling.

    For this feature to truly be valuable, we need…

  2. When someone is reported for whatever conduct they are reported for Twitch, staff should have a way to see all the accounts chat logs for other streams and handle accordingly. Since Mods have chat logs within streams I would expect something similar that can flag their comments in all streams when banned as their chat logs are still active even when banned and it'll be easier to compile if needed to report to said agencies. I mention this as when I have reported over hundred pedophiles on Twitch trying to groom and exploit kids, you see their comments in a…

  3. I have been banned for having an opinion, the mod that banned me probably had a bad day and decided to ban me for having an opinion on something. I used to watch this streamer everyday until i expressed my opinion on something that the mod disagrees with and i got permanently banned. also the mods on this channel never do unban requests, nor does the streamer (its a pretty big streamer) so im stuck in this place where im banned and no one does the unban requests.

    I just think mods shouldn’t have the power to permanently ban someone…

  4. As both a streamer and a mod for many channels, I would love the ability to expand the filtering of "Users in Chat" beyond just searching by name.

    I'd like to example filter by Account Age (to help find bot accounts or trolls), filter by length of time following a channel, filter by subscriber tier, etc.

    This would be very very useful, especially when trying to find suspicious accounts, ban evaders, bots, etc, for larger channels that have endless lists of viewers.

    Thanks!

  5. Right now it is very tedious to have to only be able to add one word at a time if you're adding blocked words to your channel. I think it would be better if we could add 5 or 10 words at a time, separated by commas or or semicolons. This would make it less of a hassle for streamers to add banned words, especially if we have a long list of words we want to add.

  6. Inserts a feature which allows the streamer or other moderators to add trusted members of the community to be a moderator when a channel becomes busier than usual or no moderators are actively in chat. This would allow the streamer to further concentrate on their business, whilst not having to worry about a potential moderator overload when the channel is not busy (eg 8 mods to 5 viewers)

  7. La opción de que los mods del canal puedan hacer clips, ya que la mayoría de los streamers deshabilitaron la opción de hacer clips para prevenir el DMCA pero hay momentos graciosos o importantes donde no hace falta un clip, y no que el streamer lo haga y pierda el tiempo haciéndolo, seria muy útil que habilitaran esa funcion :D

  9. 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…

  10. Be able to sort chat history by oldest or search for spesific words / text.

    Being able to search by you oldest chat messages could also just be a base feature on Twitch as it is stored if you scroll back far enough but is just unreachable if you have more than like 10k+ messages on a channel.

  11. It would be incredibly helpful if mods were able to toggle their mod sword on and off for times that they don't feel like modding but still want to participate in the stream as a listener.

  12. As the title stated. I've had multiple scenarios where it would've really helped if I was able to see someone's whole chat history without having to scroll all the way up. This causes the website to lag and at a certain point, especially with bots, the website runs out of memory and causes a crash. This helps when someone loses a quote list, other counters or if they just want to see their first message in a specific channel.

  13. There needed to be an "Undo Deleted Messages" feature for Twitch's moderation tools. Moderators often act quickly to keep the chat safe and organized, but mistakes can happen—especially in fast-paced chats, during raids, or times of high traffic.

    An undo deleted messages system would allow moderators (and streamers) to revert recent moderation actions within a short period of time.

  14. Here's a logical concept for a two-step system specifically designed for live chat (e.g., support chat or admin panel).

    Since you need it as text for live chat, I've...

  15. Allow the ability to add/remove permissions from roles. For example, make it possible for an 'editor' to postpone ads and change the stream title/game but not make it so they can delete your clips or download your library.

    Alternatively, create another role that is above mod but below editor.

  16. There could be some enhancements on pinning a message. The default should be a manual or end of stream since socials are always pinned in my experience. Pivoting on this, can we further enhance to keep pinned permanently so they don't have to be added each stream?

  20. Dear Twitch Team,

    I would like to suggest an improvement to the current moderation tools available in Twitch chat.

    At present, moderators are unable to delete their own messages, and removing other users' messages can be unnecessarily complicated, especially during fast-paced streams where quick action is critical.

    🔹 Proposed changes:

    Allow moderators to delete their own messages – this would help correct mistakes or remove unintended content quickly.
    
    Simplify the process for deleting messages from other users – for example, by adding a more accessible button or a hotkey within mod view.
    

    Improving these tools would greatly enhance the efficiency…
