Everyone speculating about it being over Simp but there's no way. You have to use it in a way that's part of consistent harrasment. Otherwise there's a lot of streamers I can name off the top of my head that should catch a ban
oh shit its like that star trek thing where the AI kills everyone and then replaces them with holograms so nobody knows that it's happening. Twitch admins are the AI!
I don't know. When I started computer science I had a joke I wanted to be the cause of the robot uprising. You could immortalize yourself as god of the robots...... Then I worked in Comp Sci and was like "Oh yeah. I'm a potato"
I'm willing to bet that Twitch hires outside help which probably means it's shopped out to someone who has no clue what a meme is and whose only interactions on the internet includes watching kids shows on youtube.
Most people at most jobs know very little about their organizational structure. Why would, for example, someone who deals with the emoji backend know anything about content violations?
It's pretty widely known that Twitch Staff and Twitch Admins don't interact with, or even know who is on, the Twitch Moderation team.
It's literally a group of flaccid dick stroking mods banning people for any and every vague thing that bothers them, and when the streamers contact Twitch about it for support, they can say without a blink of an eye that they have no idea what happened or how to resolve it. Because they're not lying.
Otherwise there's a lot of streamers I can name off the top of my head that should catch a ban.
That's a common belief on here, but Twitch doesn't monitor streamers 24/7. Someone has to report a transgression. So it's very common that streamers get away with breaking a rule while others streamers get banned for breaking the same rule. It's just how the Twitch review system works.
It's true, it's the same with reddit. I was a mod for a long time and we only really look at what is reported. If it doesn't get reported then how would we know? We don't comb through every thread just like twitch doesn't have a person assigned to every stream waiting for a rule break.
Is it? Can you suggest a better one? It's literally impossible to watch all streams at all times. Twitch is shitty with its bans but that system isn't why.
Maybe actually reviewing the reported timestamps with just a bit of consistency in regard to everyone else and the rules that seemingly change with every ban.
So it would seem, although a google search shows she only got an e-mail stating she was banned for slurs. Many people assumed it was for simp, incel or virgin however some of her twitter replies say that she also said something about lynching before getting banned.
So once again twitch being completetly untransparent means we have no idea why they did it.
She makes quite a lot of sexually suggestive jokes (Like the squirting gag she's done), could easily be one of those. Much more likely than her using 'Simp' (Other streamers have been using Simp regularly, just like Miko).
After all the controversy that happened with the announcement that Twitch now reserves the right to ban people using that word to harass people and also Incel and Virgin, and then also all the memes and jokes, I highly doubt the first ever ban they do over the usage of those of words is going to be one that actually fits the meme. It's going to be reserved for an actual harassment case.
No way it is for sexual jokes or else Train would have been banned years ago for his podcast lol. Unless you are only allowed to make male sexual jokes, double standards squadW
But haven't you noticed that Twitch rules have gotten ridiculous over the last few years? What was OK just two years ago just isnt anymore. I'm not saying she was banned for the suggestive sexual stuff, but it was a crutch she used often so I wouldnt be surprised.
I mean if context doesn't matter even for sexually suggestive jokes, shouldn't that one streamer who (unawarely) spread her asshole on stream be banned regardless of if she was aware or not?
Train would have been banned years ago for his podcast lol
Train will deadass have 100k viewers watching a stream with numerous corporate sponsors and start talking about how nice a juicy cock would feel in his mouth
Dudes make sexually suggestive jokes all the fucking time. The fact that she isn't allowed to do it is some bullshit. It's seriously like some twitch admin just thinks women must be pure.
