What Does a Twitch Mod Do And What Perks Come With Moderation?
A Twitch moderator plays a crucial role in managing a stream’s chat. Many streamers exclusively hire tons of Twitch moderators considering their thousands of consistent viewers, to handle their chats which includes making sure that everyone is following the Twitch and the chat rules and doing no harm to each other. Below are the few permissions granted to any Twitch moderator

Banning/Timing Out
A Twitch moderator has access to give any user a timeout from the chat and the time duration depends on the severity of offense they have been given a timeout for. The normal duration of a timeout can be 10 seconds to 30 minutes. However, Twitch mods can mute anyone from the chat for up to 14 days.
Answer on Behalf of the Streamer
One of the most significant duties any moderator performs is the assistance of the streamer. Streamers with a big fan following get tons of questions every minute on their chat and due to getting completely occupied with their content or their game, most of the time they are unable to answer each one of their viewers. In such cases, active moderators do this role by answering viewers’ questions to ensure that no one feels left out.
Managing Chat Commands/Engagements
Twitch moderators have access to certain administrative chat commands given by streamers like muting or banning any individual from the streamer. They are actively using those to maintain a positive experience for every viewer.
Furthermore, Twitch moderators are also actively guiding users to use commands to get their questions answered. For example, if someone asks the streamer “What are your PC specs?” and there is already an existing command like !specs which immediately breaks downs the details about the streamer’s hardware then a moderator would instantly guide that viewer to use that command to get the answer.
Along with these tasks, Twitch moderators are actively creating polls for viewers to get the maximum engagement from the viewers. Asking their audiences fun questions and doing giveaways if allowed by the streamers.
In a nutshell, a Twitch moderator is performing all these actions by the instructions of the streamer and they are just trying their best to give their audiences the best watching experience possible.
