Twitch has indefinitely banned personality Kaceytron from the streaming platform. The suspension follows a string of aggressive tweets aimed at fellow streamers, including Twitch heavyweight Asmongold.
But the Twitter jabs may just be the tip of the iceberg. Kaceytron is further accused of broadcasting copyrighted TV shows on her channel, a big offense in Twitch’s rule book. It seems this cocktail of borderline behavior was the final straw for the streaming giant.
The ban comes at the right time for many members of the streaming community. Kaceytron has pushed the Platform’s boundaries in the past weeks so one can say the latest ban was predictable to at least some degree.

Kaceytron’s loyal fan base insists it’s all a big misunderstanding, pointing to a recent accidental “botting” ban that was swiftly overturned. Asmongold’s fan base, however, argues the suspension is a well-deserved retribution for her shocking statements about the streamer earlier this week.
The Christian streamer mom has faced temporary bans in the past for her choice of words. The latest ban is the third time Kaceytron is taking an involuntary leave from Twitch in 12 months. But this indefinite ban marks a new chapter in her tumultuous Twitch career.
The drama has also reignited discussions about Twitch’s consistency in enforcing its policies. Some say that popular streamers get away with minor consequences, while smaller creators face harsher punishment for similar mistakes.
The length and terms of Kaceytron’s suspension on Twitch are unknown at the moment. It is her responsibility now to express remorse to Twitch’s leadership and fully commit to fostering a better coexistence on the platform.
