Now that the streamer has made an appeal, it’s up to Twitch on whether they will lift the ban:
Twitch streamer makes an appeal video and discusses the situation
The video clip that resulted in Quin69’s ban, according to the Twitch streamer’s response was about women wearing certain types of clothes. Quin asserted that women wearing certain types of clothes are “asking” to be attacked in the video.
Quin69 stated that he felt all women should be able to wear whatever they wanted, but we do not live in a utopia.
The Twitch streamer also admitted that there were things that could have been done to minimize the chances of getting banned in the first place.
The Twitch streamer then said they were in error in how they made the statement in the first place.
During the video, Quin69 admitted that the responsibility of the streamer to minimize misinterpretation was made as a result of what they say.
Social media responds to Quin69’s appeal video
There was an outpouring of responses across social media when Quin69 dropped his appeal video for Twitch. Not every message on social media was kind and understanding. Some said that while the streamer is not hateful or evil, Quin is a misogynist, and his takes aren’t simply “dumb."
People can be misogynistic without realizing it, was another statement made on Reddit.
Ignorance is no excuse, according to some Reddit users, but not everyone was so unforgiving to the Twitch streamer.
One Twitter user suggested that while yes, words matter, so does the intent of the Twitch streamer.
One popular suggestion is that Quin69 steer away from controversial topics in the future, to avoid trouble.
Others still appreciated that the Twitch streamer was upfront and honest in his apology video, avoiding tropes like fake crying.
Now that Quin69 has made his appeal, it’s up to Twitch to determine if they feel the ban was truly unwarranted. Otherwise, the streamer has a 14-day vacation from the platform to sit through.
