Twitch is dropping its feature that lets you pay real money to pin posts in chat.

The feature just launched in June, but Twitch is removing it “based on community feedback” starting November 15th, according to a support document. However, Twitch partners and affiliates can allow viewers to pin cheers, which are special chat messages purchased with Bits (Twitch’s virtual currency).
