ABSTRACT

Live mobile streaming has been a bit of a slow development for the Google-owned site, even though it was the first major 'video site'. Chat messages can be moderated in the same way as regular chat messages. We can assign moderators, manage spam messages, block words proactively and block users from chat or remove chat messages. As with other similar apps, moderators can interact with the audience and remove comments when appropriate. They can also flag, block or put users in time out. Selecting the tick box for 'automatically block spam messages' will block simple spam such as long messages in all caps or repeated identical messages by the same user. Moderators can also block words proactively after compiling a list of terms in the 'community settings' section. All chat messages, including Super Chats, are subject to moderation. Moderated Super Chats will have their username and avatar removed, as well as the message itself, obviously.
