Twitch has once again banned streamer Adin Ross, now for the eighth time in total. The reasons for the ban are currently unknown, but this of course is not the first time that Ross has been in hot water on the platform, having frequently courted controversy.Ross is mostly known for his gaming content, putting together a substantial following on Twitch, having streamed on the platform for several years. The frequent bans have raised questions about his conduct and behavior on the platform numerous times already. This latest ban has left many of his fans rather bewildered, wondering what could have provoked the measure. Some have been speculating that it may be due to recent controversial comments made by the streamer, while others have suggested that it may be related to previous terms of service violations.Twitch has not yet released a statement about the matter, but the previous behavior on the part of Ross leaves room for supposition. The streamer has been involved in several high profile controversies concerning figures like Andrew Tate and Kanye West in addition to countless comments of a questionable nature.
This is not the first time that Ross has been banned on Twitch, having already been the subject of such disciplinary action more than half a dozen times. Previous bans have been for a variety of reasons including violations of community guidelines, terms of service, and copyright infringement. Some have argued that his conduct has damaged the reputation of the platform and its community, while others have suggested that Twitch needs to take a stronger stance on enforcing its rules and policies.
Ross has yet to comment publicly on the ban. Whether he will be returning to the platform at some point in the future is currently unclear. Ross on the other hand has frequently complained about feeling under attack by Twitch, primarily for his controversial content. “I got a call,” Ross mentioned in a recent streaming session. “I’m not going to say specifically who it was, you know who you are. And you basically said if you keep doing controversial stuff and you keep saying certain things, we’re going to have to take you down indefinitely. So, I got a threat.”
