Popular WoW player blasts Twitch after \u2018double standards\u2019 ban Pilav YouTubePopular YouTuber \u2018PilavPowa\u2019 has been banned from streaming on Twitch for \u2018wearing sexually suggestive attire\u2019 after getting access to the World of Warcraft Classic Beta, and the community is calling foul. World of Warcraft fans are hyped to go back and play the game as it was at release with WoW Classic and according to Twitch, one streamer got a bit too excited when learning he got into the game\u2019s early version. Twitch audiences love the diverse and entertaining assortment of content readily available on the streaming platform, but the company has been consistently under fire for their questionable bans regarding Terms of Service infractions. In a series of Tweets, Pilav revealed what got him banned from the platform which was met with a lot of people disagreeing with the call. \u201cReason: Wearing sexually suggestive attire, such as undergarments or intimate apparel,\u201d pilav said. \u201cI was BEGGING Blizzard for weeks now to give me Classic beta invite and finally tonight I got it and my genuine reaction was to jump around out of excitement and shorts slipped down a bit you could literally see half of my underpants and that\u2019s about it no arse at all.\u201d He later said that Twitch gave him a ban with an \u201cindefinite\u201d suspension length. That leaves the fate of his channel in question, as fans don\u2019t know exactly when they can expect to watch Pilav go live again. Suspension Length: Indefinite it’s not perma but it might be still\u2026it sucks even if it’s one day because I’m trying so hard not to JOKE about anything or anyone no more and then I get banned because my shorts slipped down a bit while jumping out of excitment.S E X U A L ATTIRE\u2014 Pilav (@Pilavpowa) June 19, 2019 Twitch\u2019s lopsided bans have drawn ire form the community The Twitch community are used to strange and questionable bans from the streaming platform in the past. In his disbelief, Pilav linked a clip from streamer saamjam\u2019s broadcast showing her enjoying a homemade slip and slide in her living room while wearing a bikini. \u201cYeah my underwear slip from shorts after genuinely celebrating EPIC gaming moment on gaming platform is sexual attire but this is not ecks dee,\u201d Pilav said.
