Twitch Suspends Streamer After She Wears Chun-Li Cosplay
- Thread starter Richiek
- Start date
If we could see how much money each and every streamer makes for Twitch and then compare it to who's getting banned and who's given multiple second changes, it would make plenty of sense.
Well sure, but Twitch is a freaking joke. If big partners slip up oh just a slap on the wrist. Smaller channels get the full whip.
Twitch's sexist double standard strikes again, she wouldn't have been put through this if she were a woma-- wait what?
Twitch moderation right now is a complete mess, it seems like none of them are on the same page. They allow things that are wayyyyy more risque (I've no problem with it) and then they ban this girl for something incredibly mild.
If you're a Twitch streamer right now, you kinda have no clue what is and what isn't allowed. Sometimes they'll ban someone and they won't even give a reason, so you're lost on what you even did. Your own fans have to play detective to try and figure out what could've possibly done to have cause your ban,
They gotta figure out their shit.

Animal abuse, racism, sexism, violence, bigotry all A-ok on Twitch!.
But heaven forfend anyone show a small ammount of skin!

So if she wears clothes that reveal her legs, she gets ban, but if she had said the N-word, no ban???
Does that mean that racism cancels out the whole showing skin ban or would Twitch just double down?

Really? Then what is the "This stream is intended for mature audiences" thing for?
Their moderation is a shit show. None of them are on the same page and let the wrong shit slide. Body painting is allowed, but showing "too much leg" wearing a cosplay of all things is too much? And lets not forget completely ignoring these clowns throwing out the n word like its nothing with no repercussions. Also there are plenty of other women on the sight showing the entirety of their legs including some ass and they don't get touched with so much as a warning (which they shouldn't, shorts are shorts are shorts are shorts).
Its all a combination of if you are woman, how much of a viewership you have, and the mod team being incredibly incompetent and probably filled with the same dudes that hate women.

It's hilarious to see people paint Twitch as "SJW" with all the shit they allow on their platform along with them consistently banning smaller female streamers for not dressing conservatively.
Racism, transphobia, and misogyny?
twitch needs to get its crap together and not allow people to weaponize the reporting feature. It's obvious when it happens and yet it still happens.
It's too bad people won't massively stop supporting twitch for trying to police women and what they wear instead of actually dealing with their toxic culture.

A contingent of people here secretly take KEEMSTAR seriously (and are just in general bad at holding white dude streamers in particular accountable) and it's low-key sickening
Oh sure, had pewdiepie done the same he'd never face this scrutiny.
*war flashbacks to high school when I opened a door for a girl and she didn't instantly sleep with me i'm such a nice guy girls only want assholes!!!*
I would assume violence, swearing, or sexualized content that is not nudity (which is what my original post was getting at--if you can stream sexualized content that isn't sex/actual nudity, why the fuck can't this girl show off her legs which is just like a normal fucking human body part).
If you're normally playing a game and you come across nudity like it's intended and you continue playing the game normally, it's totally fine. It's only an issue if you do shit with the game's nudity that's not normal. Like if you just keep re-doing the nude bits or zoom into the nudity with your streaming program, shit like that. You'd have to go out of your way to get ban for showing nudity in a game.
did...did you mean to quote me? like i know this is a joke but i'm not sure how this relates to my you can't stream nudity comment
Twitch is a joke. I do think there are some Twitch staff who really don't like certain streamers to the point of just banning them.
Not too long ago, the streamer xQc was going to get a 3 day ban but it was then overturned and he was unbanned for 2/3 frames and a couple pixels showing the tiniest glimpse of a ballsack. No one in chat reacted to these few frames or anything and neither did the streamer. But apparently, someone at Twitch spent their time looking for those few frames just to hand him the ban.
The inconsistency in them listening to their own TOS is just so random.

Damn shame because from the looks of it shes a pretty damn good cosplayer what is wrong with Twitch and some of it's users
Has Twitch not seen you know... the game Chun Li is from that they allow to stream on their service?
I do believe I remember watching a lot of Chun Li at an event on Twitch a month or so back...
They've probably never heard of it... a little something called "EVO"...🙄

this is false. You can stream any game, that is rated under adult. As long as the nudity isnt the "main attraction" of your channel, then its fine. How would anyone stream witcher 3?
Ironically, I bet if she wasn't wearing underwear in that first clip she wouldn't have gotten banned. Twitch either needs to button their shit up like Mixer has done with a professional standard, or clearly define what levels of nudity are acceptable and enforce them uniformly.
Recently Amouranth was banned only a day and a half for exposing her privates (more than 10 seconds).
Those bans are just inconsistent, that's the big problem. And they won't say it clear what's really allowed or not

I really don't get why twitch becoming so so extreme.... it is almost like they are turning into religous cult.
This is so fucking stupid. I wonder how those people can function on a daily basis. Twitch can really fuck off as far as I'm concerned.
User Warned: Objectifying and inappropriate commentary
Let's agree that both Twitch and the hate brigade are pathetic.
How many of these people who were flagging and in favor of Twitch's suspension decision are also the "don't come for my Mortal Kombat sling bikinis" sorts, because I'm thinking it's all of them
