While Jones is known across the IRL streaming scene for his outrageous antics and over-the-top interactions with other streamers, one of these interactions saw his channel banned on September 20, after he accidentally leaked his private Discord messages. Although it\u2019s never a good idea to expose private conversations with persons who might not consent to having their personal business aired out for all to see, Jones\u2019 Discord chat contained a racial slur \u2013 a slur that he, himself, had typed out toward another user, which viewers could see for a split second before he closed the window. Unsurprisingly, Jones\u2019 account was quickly suspended following the debacle, with searches for his channel on Twitch yielding nothing at the time of writing. However, those weren\u2019t the only messages leaked during his September 20 stream: the IRL star likewise exposed his Twitter DMs, which showed possible beef between himself and fellow streamer ICE_POSEIDON. \u201cThanks for calling me fake after I helped\u2026\u201d a preview for POSEIDON\u2019s message reads, followed by even further potential drama with streamer Mizkif, who wrote, \u201cI don\u2019t even want that exposure anymore.\u201d This wouldn\u2019t be Jones\u2019 first ban from Twitch, either: the streamer was also met with a week-long ban from the site after streaming while driving during a June 12 broadcast \u2013 a ban that he ultimately agreed with. Rather than fighting the ban, Jones claimed that he \u201ccompletely agreed\u201d with Twitch\u2019s action on the matter and admitted that he was \u201cputting myself and others in danger, and I need to be more responsible.\u201d As many of you can see I\u2019ve been banned from Twitch for a week for looking at my phone while driving I completely agree I\u2019m putting myself and others in danger and I need to be more responsible. Thanks :crab: \u2014 Mitch Jones (@MitchJonez) June 21, 2019 Unlike his previous ban, Jones has yet to publicly address his latest suspension at the time of writing. Twitch likewise has not confirmed the direct reason for his September 20 ban \u2013 but after exposing himself for using racist language, it comes as little surprise to fans and critics alike that a suspension was not far behind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IRL streamer Mitch Jones banned from Twitch after showing his racist DM Mitch Jones, TwitchMitch Jones is a popular streamer on Twitch, known for his humorous IRL streams and the shenanigans that occur during his broadcasts \u2013 but one of his streams resulted in a quick ban due to racist content.
