Mizkif Has Streamer Banned By Accident

Twitch streamer Mizkif made a small stream become popular by accident, and the channel was finally banned from the platform after his awkward discovery drew thousands of viewers to the rule-breaking broadcast.

Twitch’s Just Chatting section has undergone a number of changes over the years as streamers get more creative with the content they create. While the title may imply that streamers simply converse with their viewers about a range of topics rather than play games, others have utilized the category for hot tub streams and other inappropriate broadcasts, prompting the creation of other categories. Nonetheless, this hasn’t stopped some streamers from becoming a touch too adult for Twitch’s liking, as Mizkif discovered while browsing the category during his own show.

During a December 15 stream, Mizkif was browsing Just Chatting when he came across a streamer named ‘raabullies,’ who had her thumbnail showing off more than is generally authorized on the platform.

raabullies’ ‘Join Me’ broadcast had only 21 viewers when he saw it, but the number quickly grew once Mizkif’s crowd jumped to check it out. 

The channel was soon banned, with some even saying that the woman exposed herself after the channel reached 6,000 viewers. She did, however, reach a peak of 2,334 viewers before being banned, according to the stat-tracking website StreamCharts, albeit this statistics may not represent the entire show. Clearly, Twitch’s moderation team noticed the show was getting more attention than they presumably expected and promptly pulled it down.

In any event, it turns out that, similar to how huge streamers can build careers by raiding smaller streamers, they can also terminate some of them before they even start.
