It seems as if being banned on Twitch thanks to Zayn is catching on, as Clix is the latest to fall foul of playing Fortnite by his side.
Gamers never tire of watching streamers play their favorite titles. It is a market that appears to have no ceiling. One of the most entertaining aspects of the whole streaming scene is the endless amounts of drama. Whether it be top streamers throwing shade at one another or those same streamers receiving bans, the streaming sphere is never dull.
These past few days have been particularly tumultuous, and controversial streamer Zayn is at the center of it all, despite the fact he is currently serving a ban from Twitch. It's also a long one since he thought it would be a good idea to try and defy Twitch by creating an alternative account after receiving his initial ban.
Despite being banned, Zayn has continued to pop up on other streamers' Twitch channels, thus dragging them down with him. The first to suffer a ban for doing so was Khanada, who was forced to go Twitch-silent for three days over the weekend. Khanada claimed the ban to be unjust since Zayn was muted, but Twitch didn't see it that way. Plus, Khanada didn't mute Zayn until midway through the stream.
It seems that Zayn's streamer friends never learn, as Clix has now been banned for doing the exact same thing. Clix claims that Zayn was muted the entire time so he has questioned why he has been banned at all. What's more, Clix's ban is for a full week. Aware of what happened to Khanada, Clix took to Twitter to question why his ban for effectively doing the exact same thing, is more than twice as long.
One thing we know to be sure about Twitch bans is that they are very random. It can seem as if someone at Twitch HQ picks ban lengths out of a hat. There has also been controversy over certain streamers not receiving bans at all, including those who have featured animal abuse during live streams. That seems a little more worthy of a ban than featuring a banned streamer on your channel if you ask us.
