Twitch permabans Fortnite pro for evading \u201chateful slurs\u201d suspension YouTube\/AdvythFortnite pro \u2018Advyth\u2019 has been permanently banned on Twitch for using a new account to evade a suspension he received back in January for \u201chateful slurs.\u201d [jwplayer Mx6o4MA0] Twitch streamer Advyth has been hit with an indefinite ban on the platform after he opted to use another account to broadcast after waiting months to appeal his original suspension. Advyth was originally indefinitely suspended back in January for allegedly using \u201chateful slurs or symbols\u201d during a broadcast. In a February 17 YouTube video the pro made a last ditch effort to bring attention to his ban, which he believes was unfair. According to the Fortnite pro, there were a few issues that lead up to his suspension. First, he claims he was \u201cmass reported\u201d by jealous players because he was hosted by fellow pro Kyle \u2018Bugha\u2019 Giersdorf. Advyth explained that because Bugha doesn\u2019t host a lot of people, so when he was hosted by the 2019 World Cup winner, he was reported in an act of jealousy. His other theory is that he was banned for something he \u201cmay or may not have said that was homophobic or racist.\u201d Is there ANY and i mean LEGIT ANY information about how long twitch take’s to respond to appeals and info about indefinite bans. The only thing I’ve looked at are outdated Reddit posts and in some people’s experiences they haven’t gotten back till 8 months or no response at all \u2014 Advyth (@Advyth) February 19, 2021 \u201cTwitch also does not ban people for saying the word \u2018retard\u2019 and if they did, they never made a statement about it even though streamers use the word on their platform sometimes as well,\u201d he added. Basically, the streamer had no idea what he said that resulted in the ban and the email Twitch sent him wasn\u2019t detailed enough leading to this confusion. The video, while amassing over 20,000 viewers, didn\u2019t result in any statement from Twitch, so the streamer ended up deciding to broadcast on his alternate account. Sadly, that didn\u2019t last too long either. On February 21, the streamer posted screenshots revealing that Twitch had banned him once again, this time for suspension evasion. \u201cGoodbye,\u201d he captioned his tweets showcasing the ban. Seeing the screenshots for himself, Bugha even chimed in, calling the decision \u201cnot fair.\u201d In any case, Twitch doesn\u2019t comment on individual bans, so it\u2019s unlikely that they\u2019d start doing so now. Combined with the fact that Advyth tried to evade the suspension, it\u2019s looking increasingly doubtful that he is ever allowed to return to streaming on the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
