Italian IRL streamer banned from Twitch after fans harass Cat Cafe Pexels.com: Lina Kivaka \/ YouTube: GF di twitch, ilGabbrone: TwitchAn Italian IRL streamer has been banned from Twitch after exhibiting unruly behavior in a Milan-based cat caf\u00e9, prompting his fanbase to harass the business with negative reviews. IRL streams are often the cream of the crop of Twitch\u2019s broadcasting content. There\u2019s no telling what sort of hilarious and random shenanigans streamers will get themselves into while traveling abroad\u2026 but not every IRL stream is a positive one. In the case of Italian streamer \u2018ilGabbrone,\u2019 the outcome was decidedly negative. In mid-June, Gabbrone visited a cat caf\u00e9 \u2014 a coffee or tea shop whose main draw is its feline staff (which, in many cases, are up for adoption) \u2014 but instead of a purr-worthy relaxing experience, a veritable \u2018catastrophe\u2019 happened instead. As evidenced by a YouTube upload of the broadcast (and a translation from a commenter), a staff member can be seen asking Gabbrone to behave properly while streaming, lest he be removed from the establishment. \u274c Twitch Partner “”ilGabbrone”” has been banned! \u274chttps:\/\/t.co\/L7WMvtivSd#twitch #ban #thirdban #partner #twitchpartner \ud83d\udc55 \u2014 StreamerBans (@StreamerBans) June 21, 2021 Shortly afterwards, the streamer\u2019s fans donated to the broadcast, triggering some unpleasant and rude sounds (such as a fart noise and other unpleasant effects) out of his speaker in the otherwise library-quiet venue. Gabbrone himself was also speaking loudly during his time at the caf\u00e9\u2026 resulting in one customer purportedly berating him for his behavior, as well as the fact that he was not wearing a mask while indoors. Seemingly as a result of this interaction, Garbbrone\u2019s fanbase began calling the cafe\u2019s phone line en masse to complain, which viewers can hear during the end of the YouTube re-upload of the stream. It wasn\u2019t long before Gabbrone was asked to leave \u2014 but that wasn\u2019t the only consequence of the IRL stream. The Italian-based broadcaster was banned from Twitch on June 21 in wake of the caf\u00e9 catastrophe, prompting satisfaction from critics across social media. The cat caf\u00e9 has also posted about the situation via their Instagram profile, claiming that Gabbrone\u2019s fans purportedly review-bombed the establishment with a slew of negative comments. \u201cHitting in this way a small reality already brought to its knees (like many others) by the pandemic cannot be considered goliardic, but cruel,\u201d the caf\u00e9 wrote. View this post on Instagram Gabbrone allegedly claimed in a separate stream after the situation went down that he was not at fault, but instead, some \u201cbad apples\u201d in his chat were to blame for the harassment of the caf\u00e9. While this is far from the first time an IRL streamer has caused havoc at a business \u2014 who can forget the time someone called in a bomb threat at an airport Ice Poseidon was streaming from? \u2014 and it\u2019s unclear if this was the exact reason for Gabbrone\u2019s ban, it\u2019s hopeful that Twitch is setting out a clear rule for such behavior with this latest suspension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
