xQc recently blocked fellow streamer Adin Ross during a live stream, sparking a discussion in their respective fan bases.

Millions of viewers have tuned in to watch their favorite content creators play video games or share their thoughts and experiences with their audience as the world of streaming has evolved tremendously over the past few years. xQc and Adin Ross are two of the greatest names in the streaming industry, and they have amassed millions of fans and followers thanks to their interesting and captivating streams.

But a recent event involving the two has stirred up some debate among the streaming community. Adin Ross decided to pull a practical joke on xQc by providing him a link to a “screamer” over Discord.

Adin Ross is well known for his occasionally controversial stream antics, which have even resulted in a permanent Twitch ban. Screamers are a particular kind of video or sound file that begins innocently enough before abruptly playing an incredibly loud and shocking noise, frequently causing the viewer or listener to jump or feel startled. Unaware of the joke, controversial streamer xQc played the clip on his stream, resulting in an abrupt burst of loud noise that might have damaged his hearing. Loud noises can cause conditions like tinnitus, which can drastically lower one’s quality of life, if they are repeatedly exposed to. Such careless behavior not only puts streamers’ health in peril but also betrays a lack of regard for their viewers.

After this event, xQc immediately informed his viewers that he was blocking Adin Ross, probably on Discord.

Since xQc has already called Adin Ross out for a number of reasons, this has strained their already rocky relationship. While some viewers thought the joke was amusing, many others chastised Adin Ross for his childish actions and disregard for other people. The interaction between Twitch celebrity xQc and Adin Ross should serve as a lesson to all streamers and content producers. It is crucial to be aware of one’s activities and to think about how they could affect oneself and other people.

While fun and humor are undoubtedly crucial components of streaming, they should never be sacrificed for people’s safety or regard for others.
