Reckful Banned On Twitch

Byron Bernstein, also known online as Reckful is a Twitch streamer, a YouTuber and a professional Esports player. He is especially known for playing World of Warcraft. Unfortunately, due to a suspension, after nearly reaching the 1 million follower mark his growth has been stunted.

Although it is still unclear what exactly the reason is for the suspension, many believe that it is related to a clip of him driving 101 mph on a highway while streaming. Twitch has taken a zero-tolerance approach to dangerous driving streams in the past, especially if there is speeding. They consider any self-destructive behavior that may endanger your life or lead to your physical harm as a bannable offense. Dangerous or distracted driving falls into that category, as well as suicide threats, intentional physical trauma, illegal use of drugs and illegal or dangerous consumption of alcohol.

One of the streamers that reached out to Reckful was Mizkif. He explained that he spoke to Reckful to delete the VOD of the broadcast but Reckful just dismissed his warning.

“That’s how he thinks. He genuinely did not give a … He was so uncaring about this and was not willing to go to his stream, just click ‘delete all clips’ and end”, Mizkif said.
