Another Adin Ross Twitch ban has occurred and this is the seventh time. Why did it happen and what were the other bans about? Learn everything in this article.
Popular streamer, Adin Ross, has once again been banned from the streaming platform, Twitch. This isn’t the first time Ross has faced a ban, as he has a history of violating the platform’s guidelines. The exact reason for this ban is currently unknown, but it’s speculated that it could be due to a previous instance of rule-breaking.
Being a Twitch streamer, Ross has a large following and his banning has left his fans in the dark. It’s uncertain how long the ban will last and if it’s similar to previous bans. Fans of Ross are left wondering what led to the ban and if he will return to the platform.
Adin Ross has been previously criticized for his associations with controversial figures such as Andrew Tate and IShowSpeed. The latter has been known to make violent and threatening statements towards female streamers on Ross’ streams. The two have been known to target streamers together using swatting in multiple instances.
Recently, Ross has been vocal about his belief that Twitch has been showing favoritism towards some streamers over others. He brought this up during a podcast appearance where he named himself and several other popular content creators. He questioned why streamers like himself, Kai, xQc, and Speed were not receiving multi-million dollar deals, despite Twitch promoting them on their homepage and social media platforms. Furthermore, he alleged that this was an example of the platform showing “fake love” rather than offering significant deals to these streamers.
Ross has previously been known to express his dissatisfaction with Twitch and other streamers, so it’s possible that he will speak out about the recent ban in the future. As of now, he has not made any statements on social media regarding the ban.
Violating the terms of service (TOS) on a platform can encompass a wide range of behaviors, and Ross has a history of being banned for inappropriate language usage in the past, such as using a homophobic slur that led to his suspension in 2022. However, the specific reason for his account’s removal this time has not yet been confirmed or released by the platform.
Adin Ross’s first ban occurred on June 8, 2020, and was lifted seven days later on June 15, 2020. However, his next suspension on April 11, 2021, gained significant attention. The ban was issued when YouTuber Zias used a homophobic slur during a voice call on Ross’s stream. Ross responded by expressing his stance on Twitter. The streaming community rallied behind Ross, leading to the trending hashtag #freeadin on social media platforms. The suspension was lifted the following day, April 12, 2021.
The most notable and controversial Adin Ross Twitch ban occurred on April 21, 2022, when he was suspended indefinitely from the platform. The reason for the suspension was a 50-second clip that went viral on Twitter, where Ross was alleged to have used a homophobic slur during a voice call with another Twitch streamer, Josh “YourRAGE”.
After learning about his fifth suspension from Twitch, Ross took to Twitter to express his confusion about the indefinite ban from the Amazon-owned platform. He stated that he was unsure about the reason for the suspension. On June 4, 2022, Ross’s ban was lifted, and the streamer was able to return to the platform after a month-long suspension. His community on social media platforms such as Twitter and Reddit expressed their joy and excitement about his return.
The most recent suspension for Ross was on November 10, 2022, while he was live streaming, he was the target of a swatting incident. He decided to continue the stream while the SWAT team arrived at his home. Twitch suspended his channel temporarily as a precautionary measure after he was asked to leave the room by the police officials. The ban lasted for a duration of 27 minutes in total.
