Pokimane hits back at Twitch viewers taking \u201ccreepy\u201d clips during streams YouTube: PokimaneImane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is one of Twitch\u2019s most popular broadcasters with a huge fanbase, but she\u2019s hitting out at those in her audience who take \u201ccreepy\u201d clips during her streams \u2014 some of which end up being the most viewed videos on her channel. [jwplayer mfcRpjb4] As one of the net\u2019s biggest broadcasting platforms, it stands to reason that Twitch is home to a hive of different communities, from everything to ASMRtists and body painters \u2014 but some unwholesome users are taking advantage of female streamers on the site in a negative way. It\u2019s not unusual to visit a woman\u2019s Twitch channel only to find a widely-viewed clip in her videos section that seems rather odd for it\u2019s view-count; generally, these clips will show the streamer bending over or standing up from her chair to walk away. Commonly called \u201ccreep clips,\u201d these short videos are made with the sole intention of showing the streamer in a sexual light, giving other viewers a specific glimpse at a woman\u2019s derriere when she stands up from her chair (or various other positions). Taken from objectively innocent streams, these clips put a dark spin on an otherwise normal interaction, and women across the platform are speaking out against the practice; namely, QuarterJade and Pokimane. In a Tweet published on October 15, QuarterJade \u2014 who boasts an impressive 351,000 followers on Twitch \u2014 hit out at those who make such clips in a very pointed way. \u201cIf you are the type of loser that clips when I walk away from my cam, bend over, etc\u2026 F**K YOUUUUUU,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI\u2019m so sick of you stupid perverts and I hope your p***s gets stuck in a lawn mower.\u201d if you are the type of loser that clips when i walk away from my cam, bend over, etc\u2026 FUCK YOUUUUUU i\u2019m so sick of you stupid perverts and i hope your penis gets stuck in a lawn mower \u2014 QuarterJade (@QuarterJade) October 15, 2020 Another user replied to Jade\u2019s Tweet by suggesting she merely switch to an \u201caway\u201d screen when standing up, arguing that \u201cit\u2019s not rocket science,\u201d which prompted a heated response from Pokimane. \u201cWhy do we, as female streamers, need to work around the creeps in our chat?\u201d Poki wrote. \u201cEspecially in regular and far from sexual scenarios, like standing up from our chairs lol.\u201d why do we, as female streamers, need to work around the creeps in our chat? especially in regular and far from sexual scenarios, like standing up from our chairs lol.. \u2014 pokimane (@pokimanelol) October 15, 2020 With many female streamers complaining of stalking happening both on and off Twitch, the collective outrage against \u201ccreep clips\u201d is steadily rising, an issue that many users hope the platform looks into very soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
