Twitch streamer claims Kick forcefully changed her name to give to bigger streamer Kick\/Unsplash: ElladonA Twitch streamer named Sunlihyt claims that Kick made her change her name on the platform because it was \u201creserved\u201d for someone else despite it being actively used. Since its launch in late 2022 by Twitch streamer Trainwreck, the broadcasting platform Kick has skyrocketed in popularity. It hasn\u2019t been without its issues, however, as it had a problem with sexual content on various streams when it first launched. Twitch streamer Sunlihyt has taken to Twitter with claims that Kick made her change her name because it was \u201creserved\u201d for another user \u2014 despite her claiming the name just minutes after the platform launched. Twitch streamer claims Kick forced her to change her name On March 21, the Twitch streamer posted on her Twitter that Kick took her username away to \u201cgive it to a Twitch partner.\u201d \u201cKick took my active username to give it to a twitch partner mmm yea idk about this switch lol,\u201d she said. The streamer, whose real name is Alyssa, also shared a screenshot of the email she received from Kick. \u201cThank you for reaching out to us. The username \u201cLyss\u201d was reserved for another user, and it was returned to them upon their request,\u201d it reads. \u201cAs an apology for the inconvenience, we could help you change your username to a variation of the one you had if you wish to do so.\u201d Alyssa clapped back in the tweet, mentioning that she was using it for two months before Kick made her change her name. Fellow users of Kick have replied to her tweets, however, claiming that they\u2019ve seen it happen to other creators in the past. At the time of writing, Kick has yet to respond to her tweets and Alyssa hasn\u2019t shared any more communication with the platform. We\u2019ll have to wait to see if Alyssa gets her username back, but in the meantime, you can head over to our entertainment section for more news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
