Popular Streamer Gets His Old Twitch Channel Promoted With Porn And Feels βDisgustedβ
We all heard about how popular game streamer Tyler βNinjaβ Blevins decided to jump ships from Twitch to Microsoftβs Mixer. Now it seems that Twitch has recently promoted a pornographic stream on his old channel.
Ninja has went on to respond by saying that he is βdisgusted and so sorryβ about the whole incident. Normally, youβd expect to see such accounts to be left with old content but in Ninjaβs case, his Twitch account was filled with a list of popular live channels, where one of the most watched streams at the time was showcasing adult content.
Soon after, Twitch took down the illegal stream. Ninja even took to Twitter to speak about the whole issue.
In the clip, he apologizes to everyone who say the recommendation and explains that he is disgusted at how something like this happened. His Twitch account has since been changed to show his previous broadcasts.
The issue got the attention of Twitchβs very own CEO, Emmett Shear, where he offered his apologies to Ninja as well as an explanation on the issue where he said βOur community comes to Twitch looking for live content. To help ensure they find great, live channels, weβve been experimenting with showing recommended content across Twitch, including on streamerβs pages that are offlineβ.
It is reported that ever since Ninja moved to Mixer, he has since gathered over 1 million subscribers.
Pokdepinion: Iβm not sure what to make of this.. Canβt really tell if it was truly an βaccidentβ from Twitchβs side..
