Ranking your Twitch community into Tiers

You can put your Twitch community members into Tiers, which allows you to adjust Moobot behavior depending on what Tier they belong to.

This means you can give certain members of your community on Twitch access to exclusive features, more votes in your polls, more lenient auto moderation, and many other things.

Follow these steps to set up and adjust your Tiers:

  1. Open up the «User management» menu from the main menu, then open the «Tiers» menu from there. The user management menu

    3. You can add more Tiers by clicking the «Get more...» button at the top of the table.
  3. Click the «Save» button at the bottom of the menu to save your changes.

Once set up, put your Tiers to use by adjusting the settings of your other features.

Roles of a Twitch community member

A member of your Twitch community classifies as one or more roles.

All of your community members classify as the «Normal user» role, regardless of what other roles they classify as.

This means that e.g. a community member can be a normal user, while also being a Twitch sub, a 12 month Twitch sub, and a Twitch VIP.

() Twitch channel Founders will always be detected as a Tier 1 subscriber, due to limitations with Twitch, regardless of their actual subscription Tier.

() Watch time relies on the Community Loyalty feature being enabled.

Making a custom role

You can make a custom role for certain types of roles where you want to adjust the specific value of the role, e.g. how long the role has watched the stream.

Follow these steps to make a custom role:

  1. Open up the «User management» menu from the main menu, then open the «Tiers» menu from there. The user management menu
  2. Click the «Add custom role...» button at the bottom of the «Tiers» menu to open up the dialog. Adding a custom role

  6. Click the «Add role» button at the bottom of the dialog.
  7. Your custom role should now be available, and you can now add it to one of your Tiers. Added custom role

Ranking a Twitch community member into a Tier

You can have multiple Tiers, numbered from 1 and up, all with different roles tied to them, with the highest numbered Tier being the most exclusive.

Your first Tier (numbered #1) has just the «Normal user» role tied to it, and since all community members classify as the «Normal user» role, they are at minimum ranked into Tier #1.

A Tier cannot have a lesser role than any of its lower Tiers, e.g. Tier #3 can't have a «Subscriber, more than 3 months» role if Tier #2 has a «Subscriber, more than 6 months» role.

This means that «6 months» is more exclusive than «3 months», and you must always put the most exclusive role into the higher-numbered Tier.

Moobot will always put a member of your Twitch community into the highest numbered Tier they apply for, even though the member may apply for any of the lower Tiers.

This means Moobot puts them into the most exclusive Tier they apply for.

Uses for ranking your Twitch community members into Tiers
