Jon Zherka says Twitch banned him for opening bikini picture on stream Twitch: JonZherkaOn March 20, Twitch streamer Jon Zherka was hit with a sudden ban on the platform, and his channel still hasn\u2019t been restored over a month later. Now, he\u2019s revealed the reason why, and he\u2019s not happy about it. While Zherka was never exactly the top streamer on the platform, not reaching the heights of the likes of Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins or Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel, Zherka has long been a mainstay on Twitch. While his content regularly toed the line, with Tinder streams and the like, he clearly doesn\u2019t think that line was crossed. Now, he\u2019s hit out at the platform and questioned their consistency on bans, upset with how some other streamers \u201cget away with\u201d their content. Just got banned and I am not sure why. I want to thank you guys for supporting me into the freedom I would only ever dream about. Don\u2019t worry too much because unlike everyone else, I am invincible. Sweet dreams my minions \u2764\ufe0f pic.twitter.com\/qJ4AMioCsj\u2014 Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) March 20, 2021 Just over a month following his ban, Jon addressed the issue in some tweets posted on April 22, explaining what happened and his side of the story. \u201cThe reason I was banned was because I clicked a photo of a girl in a bikini on stream for too long,\u201d he said. \u201cI thought this would be harmless because girls literally blow up swimming pools in their living rooms and pose sexually\/bounce on a floatie for millions of dollars on Twitch.\u201d In a follow-up tweet, Zherka added that \u201cmy chat was respectful and these pool streamers have chats that are so insane that I\u2019m shocked they get away with it.\u201d The biggest difference is that my chat was respectful and these pool streamers have chats that are so insane that im shocked they get away with it. \u2014 Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) April 21, 2021 Zherka is clearly upset at what he deems to be an injustice, but it\u2019s impossible to tell yet if or when Twitch are likely to review their ban of his channel. While some fans have urged him to try streaming on YouTube and grow his audience there instead, he hasn\u2019t suggested that will be happening any time soon. There has definitely been a lot of discourse around the ongoing \u201chot tub meta\u201d on Twitch, and streamers and fans alike are very much split on what should and shouldn\u2019t be allowed on the platform. It seems now we know which side Zherka is on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
