Twitch Permabans Fortnite Pro

Twitch streamer Advyth, a Fortnite pro, has been permanently banned from twitch platform after using a new account to avoid the suspension he originally received. Back in January, fortnite pro Advyth was originally indefinitely suspended and the reason behind his ban was allegedly using “hateful slurs or symbols” during one of his live streams. On February 17th, Advyth made a move to bring attention to his previous ban as he posted a youtube video stating that the ban was unfair.

It seems like he did this because he had no idea what he said that resulted in the ban and the email Twitch sent him wasn’t detailed enough leading to this confusion. In the video, he addresses that there were a few issues that lead up to his suspension. He first claims that it was a mass report caused by jealous players because he was hosted by the 2019 World Cup winner Bugha. His other theory is that he was banned for something he “may or may not have said that was homophobic or racist.”

He added, “Twitch also does not ban people for saying the word ‘retard’ and if they did, they never made a statement about it even though streamers use the word on their platform sometimes as well,” However, the video did not result to twitch to make a statement regarding his ban. So Advyth ended up creating a new account on twitch and decided to broadcast. Unfortunately, it did not last long as he got indefinitely banned from the platform again. Advyth osted out on twitter a screenshot of the notice that he once again got banned on the platform and this time, it was for suspension evasion. Bugha replied to his tweet stating that, “that’s just not fair”
