YouTube: Full Send PodcastAdin Ross’ permanent ban on Twitch was the result of unmoderated hateful conduct on his broadcast, according to sources.
After rumors of Adin Ross moving his community from Twitch to Kick began making their way around the internet, Adin uploaded a video revealing his final decision.
Just three days later, Adin Ross was hit with a permanent ban from Twitch which he says happened for “no reason,” before explaining that it was due to a stream incident.
Sources have since told Dexerto why the ban was given, detailing the incident that led to Adin’s permanent ban from the purple app.
Why was Adin Ross perma banned on Twitch?
A Twitch spokesperson told Dexerto that Adin Ross was banned after showing unmoderated hateful conduct in chat.
“Per our Community Guidelines, unmoderated Hateful Conduct in chat, such as racist and anti-semitic messages, is not allowed on Twitch,” they explained.
Other sources shared that on February 24, Adin was streaming on Twitch when he knowingly showed chat from his Kick channel for over 20 minutes.
During that time, the influencer did not moderate the chat he was showing while it included multiple racist and anti-semitic comments. He didn’t condemn or stop showing his chat, which is against Twitch community guidelines.
According to the guidelines: “Twitch does not permit behavior that is motivated by hatred, prejudice or intolerance, including behavior that promotes or encourages discrimination, denigration, harassment, or violence based on the following protected characteristics: race, ethnicity, color, caste, national origin, immigration status, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, serious medical condition, and veteran status.”
Adin has made it clear that he’s not bothered by the ban, as he’s secured his spot on Kick alongside fellow creators Trainwreck and Corinna Kopf with plans to stay on the site for the foreseeable future.
