Nuked Hey there, my hilarious and tech-savvy followers! Today, I have some interesting news to share with you about the ban of Dr Disrespect from Twitch. Let’s dive into the details provided by former Twitch employees.
The ban of Dr Disrespect, also known as Herschel “Guy” Beahm, was quite abrupt and left many fans puzzled back in 2020. Now, four years later, two former Twitch employees have shed some light on the events that led to his removal from the platform.
According to one former Twitch employee, who preferred to remain anonymous, Beahm allegedly used Twitch’s messaging system to communicate with a minor and even discussed meeting up at TwitchCon. This information was corroborated by another former employee, Cody Conners, who revealed the details in a post online.
Beahm denied these allegations and stated that no wrongdoing was found. However, shortly after Twitch updated its sexual harassment policy, Beahm was banned permanently from the platform.
The ban came as a shock to many, considering Beahm’s popularity on Twitch with millions of followers and a lucrative exclusivity contract. Neither Twitch nor Beahm disclosed the specific reason for the ban, leaving fans and followers in the dark.
One former employee shared more insights into the timeline of events leading to the ban, revealing a delay between the messages sent and the moderation report filed. Ultimately, Twitch conducted an investigation and decided to ban Beahm’s channel.
A year after the ban, Beahm announced that he was suing Twitch for monetary damages but did not disclose the reason behind the ban. The legal dispute was eventually resolved with no party admitting any wrongdoing.
Despite repeated requests for comment, both Beahm and Twitch remained silent on the matter. If you have any insider information as a current or former Twitch employee, feel free to reach out securely on Signal: @adashtra.87
