I reached out to see if old thread could be updated, but was told new news new thread, so here we are. According to Dr. Disrespect himself he is unclear as to the reason for his ban. Given his radio silence, I'm lead to believe that he legitmately doesn't know. If this was a platform move, I'm sure whatever PR team who was hadnling it would have come forward about it as given all of the stuff coming out in regards to streamers and the MeToo movement, this would be a really, really awful time to be completely quiet in regards to what is going on. It is also incredibly bizzare that Twitch has not released a statement in regards to letting a contracted streamer, one of the most popular on the platform, go without any (current) reason.
This is not to be a discussion about Dr. Disrespects shitty past, I'm pretty sure we all know that by now, but more so on why Twitch has taken this level of action which is rarely ever seen. That being said, please don't speculate on Reddit posts/4chan greentext or anything of the sort. This thread is not to come to his defense as he does not deserve it.

Champions Club,
Twitch has not notified me on the specific reason behind their decision... Firm handshakes to all for the support during this difficult time.
