According to a Tweet published by Spekel on May 3, she has received a 30-day ban for the offense, apologizing for her actions and thanking her fans for their continued support. \u201c\u2026I heard back from Twitch and I will be doing my punishment for fucking up for 30 days,\u201d Spekel wrote of the incident. \u201cI appreciate the support people have shown me and we will come back stronger than ever.

I appreciate the support people have shown me and we will come back stronger than ever. Sorry I let you guys down. \u2014 Spekel (@Spekel_Anna) May 3, 2019 While some commenters felt that her ban was \u201cfully deserved,\u201d others made sure to show their support and sympathy, encouraging her to \u201cbounce back\u201d after her time away from the site is complete. The story behind Spekel\u2019s 30-day Twitch ban Spekel\u2019s ban comes nearly ten days after she doxxed a viewer for their donation message, which she interpreted as a purported death threat. While the VOD in question has since been deleted, Reddit commenters cited the original donation as reading, \u201cGuess you should get shot when you step foot on someone else\u2019s property.\u201d You didn&#8217;t let anyone down, people make mistakes. What matters most is what you do going forward, and I look forward to your return! \u2014 Dagster007 (@dagster007) May 4, 2019 Spekel took offense to this message and went on to release the commenter\u2019s full name and email address in response to the alleged threat \u2013 which was quickly revealed as a reference her actions in-game, instead. \u201cNot a death threat,\u201d the donator responded in another message. \u201cSpin it how you\u2019d like. Referring to your actions in-game.\u201d However, this explanation didn\u2019t appease Spekel in the slightest, who replied to the message by saying, \u201cYou might want to be a little clearer about that, because you\u2019re acting a little psycho man. \u2026If he\u2019s going to try and make me feel intimidated with a little rant about a fucking video game, he deserves to be doxxed.\u201d Spekel apologizes for the doxxing debacle Spekel went on to issue an apology shortly afterwards via Twitter, claiming that she was \u201cshocked and angry\u201d and that she \u201cdidn\u2019t expect it to go this way, at all.\u201d I would like to say that i am deeply sorry about how i reacted to what i thought was a death threat. At the time I did this i didn&#8217;t expect it to go this way at all, i was shocked and angry. I have upset a lot of people regarding this incident and i apologize again for any harm. \u2014 Spekel (@Spekel_Anna) April 24, 2019 Spekel\u2019s 30-day ban follows the ban of two Twitch artists on May 2, who received mass backlash after bullying a fellow artist during a live broadcast, calling her a \u201cpiece of trash\u201d and insulting her for being \u201cautistic.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitch streamer eventually banned after doxxing donator over \u2018death threat\u2019 Spekel, Twitter \/ Rockstar Games, LSPDFR.comTwitch streamer and GTA V role player \u2018Spekel\u2019 doxxed a donator during a live stream in late April, after interpreting their donation message as a death threat \u2013 and now, she has finally answered for the incident.
