Twitch punishes Tfue, Nightblue3, Mendo, GrandPooBear for stream sniping Twitch \/ Instagram, @grandpoobear \/ Twitter, @TTfue \/ Twitter, @NightblooIn a whopping series of punishments, Twitch have levied out disciplinary actions, including bans and prize forfeiture, against four popular streamers: Tfue, Nightblue3, Mendo, and GrandPooBear. [jwplayer 91I9RIGm] The GlitchCon Twitch Rivals stream sniping debacle has a new round of offenders joining Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel in virtual detention for conspiring to unfairly dismantle competitive integrity and thereby breaking the Fall Guys\u2019 tournament rules. Nightblue3, Lucas \u2018Mendo\u2019 Hakansson, David \u2018GrandPooBear\u2019 Hunt and xQc have all been temporarily banned from Twitch for an indefinite period of time and have been banned from participation in Twitch Rivals for six months. Unlike the others, Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney did not actively stream snipe in violation of Twitch\u2019s rulesets. But, since he was aware of it and failed to report it to moderators, he joins all four in having to forfeit all earnings from GlitchCon. On further review of GlitchCon, we have found that, in addition to xQcOW, players Nightblue3, Mendo, GrandPooBear, & Tfue violated our conduct rules. Their actions will result in a disciplinary action from Twitch Rivals & for all but Tfue, a temporary suspension from Twitch. pic.twitter.com\/b2gaqxHpcI \u2014 Twitch Rivals (@TwitchRivals) November 19, 2020 As shared by the official Twitch Rivals Twitter account, the platform\u2019s team have reviewed the tournament\u2019s incident and decided that all five aforementioned streamers \u201cviolated our Official Tournament Code of Conduct and Game Play Rules.\u201d Further, aside from simply breaking the rules, the popular streamers seem to have disappointed the platform\u2019s more general guidelines: \u201cwe expect all players to exhibit good sportsmanship and maintain respect for one another.\u201d While xQc and the gang likely meant no disrespect and have, instead, been apologetic for the situation, it was nonetheless received very poorly. Still, most of that anger has been angled toward xQc and, although no one other than GrandPooBear has reacted to the latest punishments, his apology seems to have been accepted. So it seems my Twitch account will also be suspended for up to a week, same as XQC. I am pretty devastated by that https:\/\/t.co\/WTXPwMqLzH \u2014 GrandPooBear (@GrandPOOBear) November 19, 2020 GrandPooBear\u2019s community has been incredibly supportive in response to his distraught tweets. He has admitted fault for his actions in the Fall Guys tourney, particularly for pointing out a bean worth sniping, and apologized for failing to speak up against something that he believes was not in his nature. As far as replies goes, most echo that this is just too much drama for a game that maybe doesn\u2019t need the full esports treatment and consequences. While he has confirmed his ban from Twitch streaming will last up to a week similar to xQc\u2019s sentence, the punishments for Mendo and Nightblue3 have not been confirmed at the time of writing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
