Twitch stars often find themselves making mistakes while streaming. It's only natural, as everyone makes an error from time to time. The difference is that they're broadcasting their daily lives for prolonged hours at a time. Whether it was opening the wrong file or a wardrobe malfunction, these mistakes can lead to bans from the platform.
In this list, we're looking at five streamers who accidentally showed something on stream and got punished for it.
Natalia "Alinity" received a ban from Twitch on April 25, 2020 after having a wardrobe malfunction live on stream. After originally giving herself a self-imposed ban, she later received a 24-hour one from Twitch for the incident.
However, this wasn't without controversy. Many, including the streamer herself, had to lobby for a ban before the company acted. Multiple sections of the community have criticized how Alinity has seemed to skirt past punishment from the platform for more serious offenses.
Most notably, she has been accused of animal cruelty for flinging her cat as well as making it drink alcohol on stream. Alinity returned to streaming three days after the incident, though she joked on Twitter that the ban should've been longer.
Cody "Clix" is a Fortnite pro player and streamer. Signed with NRG Esports, he has accrued a tremendous fortune in tournament winnings alone. However, there was a brief moment where the future didn't seem too bright for the 17-year-old pro.
In 2021, Clix received an indefinite suspension from Twitch for a nude photo that appeared on his PC's files while he was streaming. At the time, he quickly noticed the mistake and moved on from it. Given the indefinite nature of the suspension, there is a possibility that this ban could've been permanent.
