Turn KofiStreamBot Into a Moderator 

It's recommended you turn KofiStreamBot into a moderator. This will ensure that all alerts come through to your stream chat and are less likely to be marked as spam.

Give KofiStreamBot the moderator role by typing "/mod KofiStreamBot" into your chatbox and "/unmod KofiStreamBot" to remove the role.

Alternatively, you can manage and view all the roles via Creator Dashboard > Community > Roles Manager.
