Streamer shocked as Twitch deletes twerk emote while allowing hot tub content Pixabay, TwitchTwitch content creator \u2018BigSyn\u2019 called out the site for allowing hot tub streamers on the platform while banning his \u2018Twerk Butt\u2019 animated emote. Earlier in the year, Twitch found a new meta exploding on the site \u2014 the hot tub meta, where streamers hang out in swimwear in hot tubs or pools and chat with viewers. On September 16, streamer BigSyn called out the platform for removing an animated emote on his channel featuring a (fully clothed) bouncing butt. It’s wild that @Twitch deleted my Twerk Butt emote. But I could literally get in a hot tub in a thong and show my ass to the world and it’d be ok. Twitch, ya’ll literallly WILDN’ OUT pic.twitter.com\/mrnJenVO7k \u2014 Carl \u221e (@BigSynTV) September 16, 2021 Taking to Twitter, he posted an email from Twitch explaining that the platform reviewed his content and removed the emote from his channel. \u201cIt\u2019s wild that twitch deleted my Twerk Butt emote. But I could literally get in a hot tub in a thong and show my a** to the world and it\u2019d be ok,\u201d he exclaimed. \u201cTwitch, ya\u2019ll literally WILDN\u2019 OUT.\u201d Looking at replies to his tweet, it seems as the creator may have a solution to his emote problem. I’ll try that! They took away my instant emote approval haha. \u2014 Carl \u221e (@BigSynTV) September 16, 2021 \u201cI think as long as you rename, it wouldn\u2019t be flagged. I have a \u201cbooty\u201d emote that\u2019s never had issues,\u201d said Twitter user whyhellostacy. When asked about how long he\u2019s had the emote uploaded, he replied: \u201cSince the day animated emotes came out!\u201din June of 2021, that means it was live on their servers for several months before they decided to remove it. As Dexerto previously reported, this isn\u2019t the first time someone has called out Twitch for removing an emote despite them ignoring similar content being streamed on the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
