League of Legends streamer from New Zealand Quin69 recently received his third Twitch ban, and explains why it was a mistake.
Twitch has become a staple in the game when it comes to content creation and streaming, allowing anyone from anywhere in the world to sit in front of a computer and either play video games or share their thoughts and opinions. While most of the time it’s harmless, some people do tend to go against Twitch’s rules and guidelines.
Twitch’s Hateful Conduct Act prohibits people from encouraging, facilitating, or promoting discrimination and denigration of a group of people based on protected characteristics. While it’s simple to read and comprehend, it hasn’t stopped some streamers from receiving bans, such as IShowSpeed, who was recently banned for sexist commentary.
