Twitch has issued an apology after they reversed a ban of a stream for using what they deemed as “hateful slurs” despite the Twitch streamer Viperous actually saying “nerd”.
Twitch continues to baffle, frustrate, and otherwise make a mockery of the governing of their own Terms of Services and how violations are handled, and this is yet another embarrassing example of how terrible managed it is.
I just got banned on Twitch for a clip of me that went around for literally saying “nerd”. I call people who kill me nerd all the time and whatever it sounds like i said, it was literally just nerd. Why am i getting banned for something I DIDNT EVEN DO?? @twitch pic.twitter.com/vrxEfg12k2
