Both on X (formerly Twitter) and in aReddit threadsharing the news of InvaderVie’s ban, fans took to the comments and shared their bafflement, claiming Twitch was targeting the wrong creators.
“How is [she] getting banned for sitting on a chair for [three to four hours]?”one person questioned. Another wrote that Twitch banned people who “didn’t do anything wrong”, rather than those on the platform who did “extreme or crazy sh**”.
Multiple watchers of InvaderVie agreed Twitch would be better off banning creators who were actually breaking the rules, such as those who enacted “blatant view botting” to ensure “exactly 2300-2400 viewers every single dayfor the last [six months] and not a single chatter.”
Nonetheless, not everyone was in support of InvaderVie as some felt that after this many, the ban should have been implemented as a “permanent” measure. Otherspointed out the possibilitythat InvaderVie’s bans may not have been actually counting toward her “record” as she was successfully appealing them.
