TL;DR
  • Forsen banned chat users for repeated complaints about Avowed and DEI jokes.
  • The move surprised viewers due to Forsen's typically unmoderated chat style.
  • The situation reflects broader tensions in gaming and streaming communities.

Twitch veteran Forsen surprised viewers by enforcing strict chat moderation during a recent Avowed livestream. Known for his typically unrestrained chat, Forsen instructed moderators to ban users who repeatedly complained about the game or made tiresome comments about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

The crackdown came as a shock to many longtime fans. Forsen’s chat is infamous for its wild, unmoderated nature. But it seems even he has his limits. “I’ve never seen Forsen moderate his chat EVER. He must be getting insanely annoyed,” one viewer commented.

Forsen’s frustration stemmed from a barrage of repetitive complaints about Avowed and worn-out jokes about DEI. The game had already stirred up controversy due to statements made by one of its developers. This led to a flood of negative comments that Forsen found increasingly grating.

“Forsen doesn’t care about online narratives, only about his own experience,” another viewer noted. This sentiment aligns with Forsen’s reputation for being contrarian and prioritizing his own interests over viewer demands.

The Swedish streamer’s decision got mixed reactions. Some praised him for finally addressing the negativity, while others criticized the move as catering to “woke” culture. Despite the controversy, Forsen’s channel continues to thrive, maintaining its reputation for edgy humor and chaotic energy.
