Ross went on to mention Nick ‘NICKMERCS’ Kolcheff, stating the two streamers had been banned and called “brand risks” by Activision; “That makes no f****** sense! I don’t care! That’s weird as f***.”
He then compared himself to a meme from Spongebob, using the unusual analogy to describe how he felt about the ban.
“Like bro, come the f*** on, bro! I literally felt like that Squidward meme of SpongeBob and Patrick playing,” Ross said.
Nonetheless, Ross has made it clear he doesn’t plan on letting the ban prevent him from playing, revealing he was evading the ban by using a friend’s account.
“I did get banned from my account for skins. And guess what? On god, I don’t care,” he insisted. “I’m going to say it. I got a new account and I have skins, camos. I don’t care. It’s my boy’s account, using it.”

He explained his friend had logged into the account using Ross’ PC, describing it as a “hand-grinded account.” While his new name remains unknown, it looks like Ross will continue to appear onCall of Duty servers.
