Original story follows below\u2026 The streamer changed up his stream plans on July 7, taking to the streets in an IRL stream. During the broadcast, Ross regularly checked his phone while driving, responding to Twitch chat comments and messages. Twitch\u2019s community guidelines state any \u201cillegal activity\u201d will be punishable by suspension. That includes Californian state law, where \u201cdriving while using a handheld cellular device or texting\u201d is a crime. The violation carries a fine of $175 for first offences, and $500 for any following charges. Twitch suspended the star\u2019s channel late on July 7 following the broadcast. Adin Ross banned on Twitch The IRL star\u2019s bannable driving offences were first flagged hours before his July 7 suspension; fellow Twitch streamer Jake \u2018JakeNBake\u2019 Abramson called Twitch out for \u201cinconsistencies\u201d around their ban reasons. Abramson was suspended for a similar driving incident in March. Ross believes this Twitch suspension may be \u201cpermanent.\u201d \u201cJust got banned by Twitch\u2026 I think it\u2019s a perm. This is not good AT ALL. I was at a red light during my IRL stream and I read chat off of my phone,\u201d the star wrote. \u201cI am 100% in the wrong, I\u2019m so sorry\u2026 don\u2019t know when I\u2019m gonna be back.\u201d The streaming star added that he was still struggling to come to terms with the July 7 ban: \u201cI\u2019m shaking right now, I\u2019m so sorry. I feel horrible.\u201d Just got banned in twitch. I think it\u2019s a perm guys \u2026 this is not good AT ALL. I was at a red light during my irl stream and I read chat off of my phone. I am 100% in the wrong I\u2019m so sorry. Idk when I\u2019m gonna be back tho \u2026 I\u2019m shaking rn I\u2019m so sorry I feel horrible \u2014 adin (@adinross) July 8, 2021 Later in the day, Ross went live on Instagram to apologize. \u201cI\u2019m really, really sorry guys. It\u2019s no one else\u2019s fault but mine. I\u2019m having the worst anxiety of my life,\u201d he said while walking. \u201cI haven\u2019t got anything back yet. I think it was permanent.\u201d During the livestream, Ross doubled down on his claims he was \u201cat a red light\u201d when texting, despite several Twitch clips shared on Twitter showing otherwise. \u201cI\u2019m going to appeal it\u2026 I was at a red stop light during my IRL stream and I was reading Twitch chat. So stupid of me. \u201cThis isn\u2019t on Twitch either,\u201d he added, addressing his 1.8 million followers on Instagram. \u201cDon\u2019t blame them. This is 100% my fault, like I said. Twitch literally gave me a perfect opportunity to go up and sh*t. I got banned because, like I said, I was at a red stop light and texting\u2026 not texting, reading my chat. \u201cI was just shopping, having such a fun time. I was going to go home and stream, and then I got banned. I\u2019m really f**king sorry.\u201d Ross reveals ban length, takes \u201cfull accountability\u201d Adin Ross spoke out once more on the ban in a paparazzi video uploaded to YouTube on July 9. In the video, Ross confirmed that he\u2019d received a seven-day suspension due to \u201ctexting and driving in my Lambo.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s just my fault,\u201d he said of the situation. \u201cI text and drive, I could have killed somebody. Twitch, you did the right thing. \u2026I didn\u2019t even realize it bro, because I do it all the time. I was really doing this s**t all over the f***ing place. I did it like, three to four times. I deserve that ban. I\u2019m taking the full accountability for it, and I\u2019m just gonna learn and be better.\u201d (Topic begins at 0:40) This suspension marks the fourth time Ross has been banned on Twitch. He has been previously barred from the Amazon-owned platform in single-day bursts, on May 29 (nudity) and April 11 (homophobic remarks). The star\u2019s first Twitch ban came on June 16 last year. Ross was blocked from streaming for seven days for his first strike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
